Have not stayed at that particular campground, but did have a good stay with this one & it is large rig accommodating:

Markiemark - thanks for the tip. Unfortunately they're closed for the winter season. I actually called them based on the few pictures from their web site.

Though, the observation tower at Clingsman Dome looks cool! We'll try to check that out.

Stayed there about 8 years ago. I would stay again. Nice mountain views and clean.

We just left Happy Holiday RV Park in Cherokee and loved it! We got sites 97 and 98 along the creek. 2 class A's one 34' and the other 36'. Plenty of room. Level sites. Simply beautiful! They are putting in new digital cable TV. Not a fancy park but closest to casino. If you want satellite TV, pick a spot in the open (pull thrus). We found their cable to be "ok". Verizon cell and wi-fi worked good. They have limited sites open this winter so I would call for reservations. Warning: do not try to come in via US 19! We took I-26 to I-40W, then exit 27 onto US74 west to exit 74 (US441) toward Cherokee. Then right on BRUS441. First right on US19, about 3 miles on left. check out satellite view on google maps.
I would definitely go back to Happy Holidays. You can check the 10 day weather forecast on www.weather.com Enjoy!

Thanks for the notes Lonny & Diane. From looking at their page on Facebook, cable and wifi will be off for the winter. Any chance you took note to what kind of cellular service that you had? I'm supposed to be off that week- but I know how that usually goes. :(

Directions-wise, I'm coming from High Point, NC the night before. It looks like my Google directions do have me coming in on US19 for about 19 miles. I'll keep your notes printed out and let my wife know. US19 looks "tricky" through that stretch!

Good to hear. Sounds like they just got new owners, but it seems like they're trying to fix things up and keep it nice.

As he said. DO NOT go thru Maggie Valley, and across 19 / Soco Road. It Sucos in more ways than one when trying to tow. Has 9 degree grades, and really twisty. Not recommended for towing.

Thanks for the confirmation. We'll end up driving into Maggie Valley without the trailer solely to see some of the Setzer-named stuff. :D

River Valley looks like another possibility. Cherokee RV parks
