We had a great site and the weather was perfect. It was one of the somewhat secluded sites and very peaceful.

Lovely area and clean, well kept park! Only complaint is the firewood we bought at camp store. Very green and unburnable. We went into town and got some dry the next day and was able to get going. We woke up our first morning to the smell of lighter fluid! Our neighbor was going that route to get this wood to burn. Nobody on our loop had much success.
It’s a pet peeve for me. If you want campers to not bring wood (we don’t), it seems fair to offer burnable wood at a fair price.

We had a lovely time at Indian Boundary. Site 17 was nice. However, we made the mistake of not completely reading all the information about this campground. While there was an electric hookup, there was not a water hookup at the site. Fill your tank first! The site had easy, close access to the lake which was perfect for launching our paddle boards. There is a hiking/biking trail that loops the entire lake which was amazing! The sites were large, but there is a main trail entrance next to site 17. We weren't bothered by that, but if your wanting more privacy look at other sites. The driveway has a turn in it, so backing the camper in was a little different, but I had no issues. It was fairly level as well. The campground is beautiful! The lake was calm and peaceful making it perfect for paddle boarding or kayaking. The beach and recreation area is well maintained. The camp store was stocked nicely, and a blessing to have when we ran out of toilet paper. The shower houses could use some updating, but were clean. There is no cell service. We did hookup our Starlink for emergency calls which worked most of the time. During our stay there were a lot of biting flies which made it a little less enjoyable, but overall it was a good experience. I'm planning on returning next year.

We really enjoyed our time here, taking advantage of kayaking on the lake, floating at the beach, riding the trails and visiting the waterfalls nearby. We will definitely be back!

What a gem of a campground! We enjoyed the beautiful lake with rented kayaks from the on-site general store, sat on the huge sandy beach, and visited bald falls. Tellico Plains is a cute little town and the visitor center is really nice. Our only regret is not driving the entire length of the Cherohala Skyway or hiking around the lake.

I love Indian Boundary Campground. Large campsites, campstore with friendly workers, kids can ride bicycles, and a great lake for swimming or fishing.

Very nice campground. Camp store was a big plus. Well stocked and nice employees. Hiking trail around lake is nice and well maintained. No sewer or water connections at sites but that’s well advertised. Also no cell service.
