I have camped twice at Deals Gap. (Tent camped).
Can’t camp along it, can camp near it. We like Hunt’s Motorcycle Lodge in Tellico Plains. http://www.huntslodge.com/
thank you!
Abrams Campground is a nice spot if you require a groomed campsite.
Simple life in Robbinsville is in a great location and has affordable cabins and tent sites. http://thesimplelifecampground.com/cabins/
Thanks for the link, that looks amazing…love the mini cabins!
stayed at the KOA myself
Deals Gap.
Punkin Center is the best place to camp hands down.
Nice place, stayed there twice in ’05
Saw Rusty & The Geneva Keen Band there !
Totally agree with Jay Dettinger
Nothing better than drinking and talking to Jody and Sharry.
Jody’s shine tho…..DAMN!
If he has some left. I was there a month and we cleared him out. The hospitality there is like no other.
Trust me there’s more to be had!
Maggie valley is a nice place and you could visit wheels through time while you were there.
Planning on going there in 2 weeks!!
Was just there over Labor Day. Had a cabin up the mountain behind the fire station directly across the street from the museum.
slept real good too! This campground is 50ft beneath wheelie hill.

Punkin Center is “motorcycle only” camping and it’s on hwy 129 just north of The Dragon.

Pumpkin center?
No. But I kicked it in the balls
Pumpkin center
I usually pick a place off the road a bit, makes it easier for bikes and cars to get by
I live in the area. There is a few decent camp grounds around on both ends. Tellico plains and Athens has a couple also by the skyway. Plus there in one on the skyway.
Ironhorse motorcycle lodge and campground.Awesome place and folks.
Agree with Jerry L. Rodgers on Ironhorse Motorcycle Lodge: https://youtu.be/DLnKMwTwn4k
Yes. Deals Gap has tent sites. First come first serve, I think I paid like $8 a night. Short walk to clean showers up on the hill. Maybe 100 yards from restaurant and gas station, but the tent site is tucked out of the way and relatively quiet.
We’ve stay at deals gap resort, fontana, pumkin center & kickstand, can go wrong with any of them.
Awesome, thanks for the info!
