Nice view, but if the gate is closed, be prepared for a long walk. There were signs warning that the gate was closed, but we drove up any.nWe visited a few hours after it snowed. For safety reasons I’m sure, they locked the gate that is about 1.5 miles from the top. So we parked on the side of the road and walked up. It was a pretty walk with all the snow, but that mile and a half felt like 5 miles, with some flat stretches but mostly steep inclines. It took us about an hour round trip.nI agree with another reviewer. It is not ADA accessible. There is a slightly easier gravel trail from the gravel parking lot to the observation tower or you can take a short but steep walk up the concrete driveway. The bathrooms were closed, I assume due to COVID.nI’m glad they left the small observation deck on the SC side. It’s just off the back corner of the parking lot. It’s easier to get to but still not ADA accessible.nThere is no cell service from the gate until you get to the top.nAlthough I love the new observation tower, I still can’t give it more than three stars because of the accessibility issues from the parking lot up. I hope they can address that soon.

Great views, easy access. The Jocassee Gorges are simply stunning, but especially at sunset.

Wonderful place to look out over the mountains. I just wish there were markings letting you know which part of the state you are looking towards. Supposedly you can see 4 states, but no signage showing which way. We were sad to find the restrooms closed, so be sure to stop somewhere before you drive up the winding road.
