Cheoah Point Campground is praised for its beautiful location near Lake Santeetlah, well-maintained facilities, and friendly hosts, making it a great spot for camping and outdoor activities. While the campground offers nice amenities like clean bathrooms and hot showers, some sites can be close together and lack privacy. Overall, visitors appreciate the serene atmosphere, cleanliness, and accessibility to local attractions, despite occasional concerns about site maintenance and noise.

Very nice, well kept campground on beautiful Lake Santeetlah. Modern fire pits, lantern hangers, huge picnic tables and electric hook-ups for RVs. Tent pad with all sites, even the RV sites, and well spaced trees for hammocks. Modern flush toilets and showers. About as nice as campgrounds get. The only con was the sparsity and location of fresh water sources. Otherwise, wonderful camp!

I read reviews on how crowded the spacing was but............wow. I couldn't start a fire in the fire ring for fear of catching the rig next to me on fire!!

This is one of the most beautiful camp sites we have stayed at. I have always loved National Forest sites and this one is top notch. The bathrooms are nice and toasty. The RV sites are definitely a bit close, but the views and friendly neighbors made it worth it for us. Be prepared that backing in takes a bit of experience. The tent sites and beach are gorgeous. Great spot to tow your motorcycle to and enjoy the amazing surrounding roads.
