4 sites all along the river. Site #1 is the least private (near the entrance) with #4 being the most private. Easy to get to with one part (where you veer to the right to start on the High Shoals Falls Loop) with rock stairs going uphill - hike suitable for most families and children.

Went camping here on a trip and it is an awesome campsite. Very close to a creek for water and has an outhouse and trash with a bear box for food.

A near-glamping experience for a backcountry camp site. Nice creek side sites with fire rings, picnic tables, a food box, and trash cans. Site 4 is the most secluded but there were a number of potential widow makers that made me hesitant to hammock camp there. Sites 1 and 2 didn’t have great tree spacing as well as dead trees but would be doable. Site 3 was perfect. Beautiful spot. A little more foot traffic than you might expect since it’s so close to the parking area.
