Cataloochee Campground Walk-Thru - View Of Each Site
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 окт 2022
- This is the 4th Smoky Mountain Campground that I have done a walk-thru of, and featured in a video. Please also see our walk-thru of Cades Cove Campground, Balsam Mountain Campground, and Smokemont Campground.
Today, I am walking through the Cataloochee Campground, in the beautiful Cataloochee Valley, near Maggie Valley, NC.
I hope you will find this video helpful, in finding the right site for your camping trip.
We just booked your favorite site 7 for late September. Looking forward to returning to Cataloochee. Thanks again for sharing.
You are very welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.
We love that site, because you can walk straight back to the river, and there's room to set up a couple of chairs and just listen to it.
Nice walkthrough. I wouldn't of given away my favorite sites though, lol.
Well, it is to be helpful to other campers to let them know which sites look the best. Anytime I'm planning a trip, I always reserve my site well in advance.
Thanks for watching.
Thank you for doing these walkthroughs! It always helps me in choosing a site. We ended up in site 15 last year because we booked at last minute and it wasn’t terrible. It was a short walk to the bathroom and there’s a little stream running behind it that you can listen to. I know it’s not the river but it’s a nice alternative! 😂
You are very welcome. Glad you had an enjoyable trip, and glad that you found this video helpful.
We appreciate you letting us know that.
Love your video and this place is beautiful
Thank you so much!
Hello from Gatlinburg Tennessee!! Nice job as always...
It looks pretty with all the leaves on the ground. In the Summer I would like to be close to the river but in the Fall I would freeze from the breeze off the water.
Love cataloochee!!! We stayed on Sept 28 and 29. Our low was 29 degrees. We loved watching the elk.
I know now there’s no easy way in I have been 2 times but can’t drive it again to hard. Thank you for fulfilling my hope of seeing this amazing beautiful place again
Thank you so much for watching!
Nice campground. Everything is online now…
Beautiful leaves!
Yes, there actually is a website that you can go to to get pictures of campsites. But that website doesn't really give a good overview of the campground like a walk-through video does. That's something I started doing last year, whenever we would go to a Great Smoky Mountains campground. Several people have commented that it has helped them book a campsite. And since this one was a very small campground, it didn't take long at all to do it. Smokemont, near Cherokee, took me well over an hour.
I love the Cataloochee Campground. It's probably one of the quieter ones.
Its nice that you do these videos! You’ll get a lot of views.
When I said everything is online now, I meant to make reservations n pay. I guess I was talking about my frustration about thats the only way
@@cumberlandquiltchic1 I agree. Some of them take walk-ins if they have free spaces, or reservations...either one. Cataloochee, is apparently reservation only. Although, I wouldn't want to risk driving in there and there not being any sites, since it's so small. But yeah, I understand what you are saying.
Thanks! A walk through is so much better than a drive through. I can’t wait to book our sites and come see the elk!!!
Glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful. Thanks for watching!
Enjoyed your walk through with the beautiful leaves and the sound of the river! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching. Glad you enjoyed it.
My all time favorite campground in GSMNP since 2013. By far!! Mostly in the Spring. Good fly fishing in the area too!
Yes, we love it! Very peaceful.
Very nice!😊
Thank you for watching!
Thanks so much for the informative video! We just found this campground, then planned a last minute trip here. There was only 2 sites available and this walk through helped us choose the right one for us and our 31st anniversary trip 😊
So glad the video was helpful. Hope you have a great camping trip. You are going at a very beautiful time.
Appreciate the video! I have site 10 book for mid-October 2023 and it is just me on a photography assignment.
I appreciate you taking the time to review the sites.
If I remember correctly, site 10 is the one that I said would be my second choice after site 7. It was a nice and spacious site, with a pretty private walk back to the river. I think you'll enjoy it.
@@NCMemoryMakers Yes sir you did. I’ll let you know how it works out for me after my trip. I’ll be flying solo, so I’ll have just a tent, tarp and maybe a hammock. I’ve been going to Cataloochee for years, but have never camped there. Can’t wait!
Thanks for the review walk-thru. We will definitely be staying there soon.
Thank you for watching, and glad you found this helpful. Let us know how your trip goes.
Wonderful video. A new subscriber here. I came onto you through my other smoky mountain channels that I watch. We love the smokies. I am also a believer in the Lord and I really appreciated you sharing the Gospel and the need of salvation. Thank you forsaking me to Cataloguee. That is one of the areas of tbe Park that we hsve never been to. We always wanted to go back there but the road and it's conditions have keep us from attempting it. It looks absolutely beautiful back there. What an awesome Creator we have. Thanks for this excellent video. I look forward to enjoying many more smoky mountain experiences. God bless you both.
Thank you so much for subscribing, and for commenting.
Yes, we try to show everyone great places to visit, and share the Gospel in many videos, as well. I also shared the Gospel standing by Don Knott's (Barney Fife) grave, back in December. Check out our video from Westwood Village Memorial Park. We had just visited the graves of a lot of famous celebrities, and I just felt that I needed to point out that everyone will die and stand before God, no matter their wealth or status in this life. Life is short, and eternity is long.
Cataloochee is a beautiful area, but you are correct, that it can be difficult to get to. The roads into it, are pretty rough and narrow.
Anyway, glad you enjoy our videos, and we appreciate your watching!
@@NCMemoryMakers you are welcome. Just finished watching your video on the ride to Max Patch. Absolutely stunning.!! Those views were incredible!! What a wonderful Creator we have. The Creation declares His Glory. I agree. Our time to prepare for eternity is now. Once we die it us too late. Now is the day of salvation. Thank you for using your channel to spread the gospel of Christ. We have met Will and Dawn and having been watching them for years that is how we came unto your channel. I am very glad that we did. And Will is absolutely right, just be yourselves. God bless you both. 😊
We have been wanting to camp here, but didn't know much about the campground so thank you for this walk through. The only thing I did not like about the valley was the pit toilets, so being able to use the campground restroom would be nice. Thanks again for the walk through we really enjoy your channel and just subscribed.
So glad you enjoyed it. I think even visitors who are not campers, are allowed to use the campground restroom. I know my wife did. Nobody said anything. Other people were pulling in there to do the same.
Derrick the camp sight tour guide 😂 enjoyed watching y'all beautiful Place thanks for the share
Yes, that's me...The campground tour guide. I started doing these campground walk-thrus whenever we camped at Balsam Mountain. I was trying to book it online, and didn't really know what the sites looked like, and it was frustrating. I decided I was going to do something about that for others who want to know.
Plus, it's good exercise.
@@NCMemoryMakers I'm glad you do them and I don't know of anybody else who does it so you go brother have a goodnight to you both
@@dpmart3275 Thank you. You have a good night, as well!
You both would love Abrams Campground.. Reminds us of this place but even smaller..
We haven't been to that one, but we eventually want to get to all the Smokies campgrounds.
Beautiful camp ground! I don’t think I’d want to pull a travel trailer in there.
The roads getting in there, are rough. That would be a challenge.
very nice!
Beautiful video! My family and I are headed here in October. Do you remember the dates you were here? Just curious what it might look like while we are there
This would have been on October 16th of last year. The colors were a bit earlier this past year, than in the previous year, and had pretty much already peaked in the valley by then. But again, they were early.
The campground itself, actually had better color than if you drove a few miles further to the end of Cataloochee Valley.
If you shoot for around that time for your trip, you should see some good color.
Thank you for responding:) we will be there oct 22 so we might miss the leaves and excitement with the elk but I’ve been dying to go here for years so making it happen this year.
If you go October 22nd, you will still probably see some good color in some areas. The colors came in earlier last year, due to cooler than normal temperatures. I think you'll be impressed. Some areas may have already peaked, but you may go a couple of miles and there will still be lots of color.
Great video, thanks for making it? I have stayed at number 7, and I plan to again. Do you know the measurements for the tent pad near the creek?
I do not know the exact measurement, but that information may be on the website where you make the reservation at nps.gov
@@NCMemoryMakers thanks I definitely looked online first sadly like so many campgrounds accurate measurements are not given.
@@johnowens8530 Our tent is a 10X10, and there is plenty of room for a much bigger tent, if we had one.
@@johnowens8530 I just checked, and actually, the information is available on the reservation site. The specific measurements for the pad in the site we always get, is 15X15. Some are 14X14, but it is listed under "Allowable Vehicle/Driveway Details"
@@NCMemoryMakers thanks for checking. I was trying to find the measurement there for the tent pad in the back near the creek. As far as I know the allowable driveway measurement is in the front near the drive and on the gravel.
We have a 25 foot tag-a-long. What route is recommended to access the campground? thanks
I don't know what the limit is for the length of a vehicle, but I think Cataloochee is one you would want to skip with something that big.
In fact, we were actually going to Cataloochee the day before we filmed this video, and some guy tried to bring a tractor and trailer up that road and he jacknifed across the road. We had to turn around and go home and come back the next day.
I'd recommend another campground with something that big.
@@NCMemoryMakers thank you Ive heard 25ft is the limit, but then we add the full sized truck that tows the trailer! I will regroup! your video is very helpful. Thanks for putting it out there~
@Kim Hodgson You are very welcome. I don't want to tell you wrong on that. You might want to check with the National Park on that, but to me, 25' would be very risky for that road.
Who wants to hear a generator?!
Mmmm, you got me...Who?
