Big Meadow Family Campground
Big Meadow Family Campground is actually located in Tennessee, but Fontana Village is directly on the border of North Carolina and Tennessee--it's right next door. This family-run campground caters to all travelers and offers a warm, family-feel that is often missed at commercially-run RV parks and campgrounds. Amenities include more than 100 sites for tenters and RVers (including pull-through sites), full hook-ups for RVs, game rooms, laundry services, and a towing service. You can easily access the Appalachian Trail or other nearby hiking trails to experience true Appalachia.
