Nice campground overall. The RV spaces with electric are a little close to each other but otherwise they are pretty nice. Close to the bath house and easy to pull in to.

Cheoah Point Campground is situated on a point on the very scenic and beautiful Lake Santeetlah in far Western NC. The views from the lake shore are gorgeous. But as for the campground itself, it is very small and all but 3 of the sites are RIGHT on the dirt and gravel campground road. And the 3 sites that are off the road are tent-only sites that you have to tote your gear down to from parking up on the campground loop road. We camped in one of 6 RV sites and were disappointed in how incredibly close together they all were and how small they were. Each RV site is only about 15 feet wide, very reminiscent of commercial campgrounds where the RVs are packed together like sardines. Furthermore, there are no water hookups at the RV sites - only electric. If you need water, there are spigots spaced out along the campground loop road where you can fill up water containers. Bottom line, Cheoah Point is a mixed bag. Gorgeous scenery, well off of the beaten path, and next to a very scenic lake. But, the campsites totally lack privacy, save for those three tent sites that are off the campground loop road.
