Please read the entire listing because I have updated this page and renovated the property! Pull down a paved road and get out of your car and sit down at a picnic table in front of a private waterfall! This site has a pull through, full hookup spot with 30amp for campers but tents are always welcome or a combination of the two. I've had a 33' camper, popup camper and 6 tents at this campsite all at the same time so there plenty of room for your family and friends! We're 2.5 miles from the Cherokee Casino and 3.5 miles from down town Cherokee If you're tired of crowded campgrounds then you'll love the privacy this campground offers. This is now a two site campground with each site being around 100' away from the other site with trees and vegetation growing in between, you more or less cant see on site from the other from May until November. There is a orange cone that marks the border of the two sites. One set of campers will not be allowed on the other campers campsite, if this happens you will be evicted with no refund. Check in is at 2pm and check out is at 12pm. There is a house and a church on the same road so please drive slowly. No shooting firearms, (although you may hear people shooting firearms because you will be camping in the mountains) but your more than welcome to bring your firearms. Its better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.   No fireworks. No making trails or collecting firewood (This is not because I want to sell you firewood, its because I want to have the property remain as pristine as possible) Do not cut down trees alive or dead  If you move picnic tables please move them back Dogs are permitted but contact before you book the site to confirm if your dog will be a good fit. If you know your dog barks constantly of other people while camping then it will not be a good fit. I charge for dogs the same as I do for extra guests There is a small Church around 200 yards from the campground. They hold services every Wednesday and Sunday. They generally start around 5pm and it lasts around a hour. If your into that they would love to have you come down. The EBCI opened a dispensary around 3 miles from the campground. It will open to all adults over 21 starting September 7th 2024. Message me with any questions you have ​ ​

Cherokee Waterfall Campground
Richard's campsites are beautiful. The Waterfall site is large, and could easily fit a tent with a small camper. The creek is peaceful and clean. We look forward to visiting again in the warmer months. We stayed in early-mid December, and the water hookups were no longer available. I'd recommend clarifying what amenities will be available if you're camping in the fall or winter.

Tiny camper with our dog!
The riverside campsite was great! It’s out of the way just enough to be private, but still very close to everything. The actual site was beautiful, the river had trout swimming in it, and the sound of the water rushing by provided some natural white noise. We will be back on Richard’s land again!

Absolutely beautiful and peaceful place to relax. Only 1 bar Verizon service so plan to unhook from the world. Site was clean and ready for us on arrival. Owner was courteous and helpful. Great place!

We loved how beautiful and peaceful this little gem is. Place your tent up by the waterfall and just fall in love.
