Nice quiet location with 3 FHU sites. Nice views during October color. Hiking trail on property and close to several parks for more hiking. Pick up your groceries at Ingles in Town before heading up. 4 Wheel drive a must. Low 4WD better. We got our 33.5 foot rig up to the site with little trouble. Graham is very responsive and helpful.

Great secluded spot for camping with friends! Full hookups were great to have at this site. Our dogs loved the property as much as we did. Trail around the property was great for a short hike.

Weekend Trip to The Cove at Dick Branch

We really enjoyed our quiet weekend at the Cove at Dick Branch. With only 4 sites, it is far from the crammed parking-lot experience of many mountain-view RV campgrounds. You are surrounded by nature, but have full RV hook-ups (30 amp). It was a huge plus for us that our dog did not have to be constantly on-leash. He had a wonderful time chasing frisbees and balls up and down the hillside. Potential campers should be aware that Site 1 and 2 are in close proximity, but would be perfect for friends camping together. Also take the description of the access road at its word. It is gravel and steep getting in and out of the property. We had a 21ft travel trailer and could negotiate without any problem. If you are wanting a home base for day hiking in the Nantahala National Forest, it is an excellent choice. I would definitely camp here again.

Weekend Trip to The Cove at Dick Branch

We had a great time camping with friends and especially liked how secluded it was. Hiking along the snowbird to waterfalls was a real treat. Our campers fit just fine and spots were nice, but I wouldn't want to bring anything too big up there. The water tasted great and the dogs loved being off leash.

This place is so cute and was perfect for us, our 3 year old, and our dog. Our son loved the tiny home, calling it, "my house". The house is thoughtfully designed making the most of the such a small space. We had everything we needed and more. We are used to primitive camping so it was nice to have more accommodations available like shower, stove, dishes, a Keurig & microwave. It's only about a 25 minute drive to Gatlinburg with a Walmart down the street as well to grab some groceries or extras you may need.

Incredibile little place! Nestled in the trees this place has brought the peace and nature I needed to recharge. There is a cute club house with MKII and snacks. The tiny home itself is impeccable and decorated so cute. The owners are responsive and kind. The staff is wonderful. 10/10 will stay again. In fact, I extended my stay 2 days!!!

This is a fantastic Hipcamp. The deck over a small creek was our favorite part...lots of hummingbird action! The hosts, Sue & Roy helped us park and were super friendly and helpful in pointing us in good directions for local trails & swimming spots. We hope to be back soon!

I loved camping at Canopy Cove. The area was beautiful, and they had a nice hiking trail to the top with an amazing view. They have lovely glamping tents with a little coffee bar and facilities. The hosts were really nice and helpful. It's close to a lake and only 15 minutes from Bryson City, which is an adorable town.

Great spot to "Get Away". I would suggest that if you are a novice at pulling a trailer you select a different spot. Road is narrow and winding. I also suggest you approach from the southwest so you are facing the right direction to back in and to avoid having to turn around. If you come from the other direction, there is a church about 1/2 mile past the site that is small but should work to turn around. We didn't have enough sewer hose to reach the drain as it is all the way in the back, but not a big issue for us. We arrived empty and were only there for 2 nights.

We enjoyed our stay. It was pretty quiet. Nobody bothered us. There is traffic on the road but you don't feel like people are looking at you. Not really any views like you would expect in the mountains, but the bubbling brook is relaxing to sit beside. The road has wide shoulders so walking the dogs was easy as long as you don't mind uphill.

Great spot, tucked in the woods. Definitely a steep, narrow and winding gravel road to get there, but absolutely worth it. It was doable with our 35f fifth wheel. Want to come back in the summer when everything is blooming.
