Camp Tuck is a private secluded campsite for one.  We love this special spot so much that we wanted to share it with others.  An individual 3/4 acre campsite directly on the beautiful Tuckaseegee River in the Great Smoky Mountains.   No other campers, just you, the incredible view and soothing sound of the river and the beauty of nature.  If you long for peace and tranquility, then this beautiful place is for you. This site is for Class A, B and C RV's up to a maximum of 30ft in length, and Camper Vans and Camper Trucks with onboard bathroom facilities.  Please note that Travel Trailers and 5th wheels are not allowed due to the site configuration and access. No tent campers unless with an RV that meets the above guidelines, due to no bathroom or shower facilities onsite.   Beautiful view on the Tuckaseegee river. The river is about 100-150 feet wide and flowing constantly. Located in Whittier, NC which is in between Bryson City and Cherokee. Near Great Smoky Mountains National Park (the most visited National park in the US) with every imaginable outdoor activity within minutes.  This campsite is for people who love peace, solitude and beauty but want to be within minutes of attractions and restaurants. Harrah's casino in Cherokee is only 15 minutes away. This site is for Class A, B and C RV's up to a maximum of 30ft in length, and Camper Vans and Camper Trucks with onboard bathroom facilities.  Please note that Travel Trailers and 5th wheels are not allowed due to the site configuration and access.

Camp Tuck was a spectacular spot right on the river and completely private. The location is very centralized to many surrounding areas full of hiking, waterfalls and rafting. Highly recommend staying there.

Awesome site
Camp Tuck is a beautiful site and we enjoyed our stay. It was easy to find and we had no trouble getting in and turned around with our rig. The view and sound of the river was beautiful and relaxing. We enjoyed watching the pair of bald eagles that frequently visited, and seeing blue ghost fireflies for the first time. We liked the convenience of the water, sewer & electricity hook ups too. It was very hot when we were there but it was much cooler to sit by the river. The walk down to the river was not bad at all. We wished there was more level areas to hang out by the river as it wasn't very comfortable to sit on the rocks for very long. We also wished that there was an easier way to get into the river to cool off, but the rocks were slippery and the current was strong, so we just sat on the rocks and enjoyed putting our feet in the water. Overall, it was a lovely site and we'd definitely return. But if you're hoping for easy river access, have young kids or want to play in the water, this probably isn't the ideal river site for some. It was certainly beautiful, nonetheless!

Private, riverside, spacious
Such a great setting, we loved this spot. The spacious site was easy to reach for our 21 ft van. Great to have the full hookups too. The incredible river view and sound of the ripples was so relaxing. Also loved how private and peaceful it was, can’t wait to revisit! Host was very communicative also.

Fish the Tuck
Camp Tuck was the perfect spot for our weekend of fly fishing. The campsite was clean and well-maintained. We enjoyed being able to access the Tuck directly from the campsite and the feeling of remoteness, even though we were just a mile from the highway. Will definitely consider staying again when back in the area.
