Gatlin Point Self Service Campground

Nice little place that's easy to get to and out of the way. Each area has a fire pit and bench. The areas vary in size but are still big enough for a camper. I would come here again.

Been camping here for decades. It has declined ever since the Forestry Service took over. TVA was much better at it. I told a Forestry agent I was staying for 3 weeks. He stated I could only be there for 21 days. I said all I planned to stay was 3 weeks. He screamed at me that I can only stay 21 days. I looked at him for a while...he figured it out. There have been many other situations with their agents. They all have attitudes. Camps are nasty, the roads are terrible. Be sure to drive an off road vehicle.

Peaceful and quiet. Only $5 per night

Lovely. Will definitely return.

Cute little campground perfect for tent or popup camping. No hookups, but fire rings and pit toilet on site. Love access to Bard's Lake & Gatlin Point
