Our experience during July was wonderful. The mountains, the cool, clear water of the lake and the quiet of the remote location are a few of our favorite things about Indian Boundary. The sandy beach area is great for little ones. We love to canoe and kayak and ride bikes around the lake. Of course the Cherohala Skyway offers fantastic vistas and hiking trails and sunsets. We always check out Bald River Falls and it's different every time we see it. This place has become a family favorite and we hope to continue our annual visits.

Overall good experience. HOWEVER, the rules about hammocks are a little overboard. We had one hammock with tree friendly straps, right next to our site. It wasn’t in anyone’s way and it was tucked away so it wasn’t bothering anyone and only a foot away for our site edge. We were told to take it down. I understand that sometimes people may abuse them at the beach or in the woods. Maybe integrate a system for camp guests to be allowed one hammock per site and have rules? Or maybe put pegs for them to hang in the site. I also saw other people with hammocks and they were not told to take them down. After consulting other people who have stayed there, they all feel the same way. It’s a little overboard.

Large lots with lots of shade. Very busy campground during summer. Has a small camp store with limited inventory. kayak rentals at store. Bald River Falls is a short drive west from campground, a must see.

We love it and have been camping there for about 7 years now. There is a lake for fishing, Kayaking, and swimming. There is a 3 mi trail around the lake that you can walk. There’s lots of kids here for my kids to play with.
