Summary
There are no established sites, but campers often use existing clearings. Expect no amenities—no toilets (a Leave No Trace area), no potable water (filter from the lake or streams), no fire rings or picnic tables. Fires may be restricted; check local regulations. Ideal for backpackers seeking solitude, the area is forested and lakeside, offering peaceful views and excellent access to the Appalachian Trail and nearby Chairback Mountain. Best visited from late spring to early fall for manageable weather and trail conditions.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
