Ragland Bottom

Great location for camping right on Center Hill Lake. Site #1 is right next to the boat dock which makes it quite convenient for parking and returning to your site. Quiet and peaceful stay with some awesome waterfalls nearby. We put in kayak at Cane Hollow Recreation Area in order to kayak up to Burgess Falls. These falls were just magnificent!!! We spent a few hours swimming at the falls and having lunch. Trip to the falls via kayak was about 1 - 1 1/2 hours (we are slow kayakers). Stay to the right on the way up the river to the falls and you will reach them.
Also, Rock City is about 40 or so minutes from campsite and home to Twin Falls(which we missed) and Great Falls (which I am thankful for not missing). Wow!!!! is all I can say. Just magnificent falls. There is a swimming hole if you follow the signs from the parking lot to the left of the mill. Follow the signs to the right if you want a close up look at these beautiful and powerful falls!

The camp host are great and friendly .The place is clean.
My issue with the campground is that the wake boats make it dangerous to launch and reload a boat. The need to make the whole area from Sligo Marina to the swim area a NO WAKE ZONE.
They gave Sligo a no wake for safety and they should for the campground -swim area.

Ordinarily, I would give Ragland Bottoms 5 stars. However, y'all have not been maintaining Ragland Bottoms up to standard. The host is fantastic. The people who clean and mow are wonderful. The view is spectacular. The location is one of our favorite places on earth. You also fixed the water temperature issue of being too hot in the bath house, which I greatly appreciate! The ramp platform at the campsite is finally completely rebuilt. It is so much easier to put boat in and pick up the car driver (as well as dropping off), since that is now in place. Having said that: The women's bathroom commode leaks at base, which I learned has been reported more than once through reporting channels. Too many of the rails at campsites and even at the volleyball court are failing and dangerous if anyone were to lean on them. The men's handicap shower has no handheld, so is basically unusable for any handicapped person. There is at least one, perhaps more, campsites along the water that have no covered table on which to place items. (See pictures of Sites 13, no table, and sites like 12, 14, etc., that do.) Also, too many sites are missing the hanging pole on which to keep our garbage away from the racoons and skunks! We "made do" with a clothes line between trees, but it was way too close to the ground and could have easily been invaded by any creature. Sadly, no effort has been made to keep the walking trail clear. I asked if it were possible to have boy scouts make that an Eagle project, but I was informed that the red tape made it impossible for those who had wanted to do that to get approval from the Army Corp. I hope that attention will be focused on Ragland Bottom Campground to return it to the excellent standard it has had in the past for us. We dearly love the place and want to see it receive the love and attention it deserves. Thanks for listening.

Wonderfully level site. The rest rooms were very clean and the staff super friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, it rained for the entire visit so I didn’t get to take advantage of all the amenities. I would definitely go again.
