I have been going to Standing Indian Campgrounds since I was a little kid and have continued the tradition of taking my children. It is quite, peaceful and a beautiful place to observe the nature and enjoy being with your family.

This is a wonderful place to camp BUT you cannot reserve a river side camp unless its a year in advance. The issue i have is reserving the camp sites is way to cheap and 75 percent of the time those sites are empty but if you chance camping there and the people show up you have to move. There should be a $250 deposit on reserving the riverside camp sites and that would deter people from reserving it and then not showing up. The current rate is so low that people reserve them in case they have a chance to go but if not theyre only out a few dollars. RAISING THE DEPOSIT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM!!!!! EVERYTIME I GO THOSE SITES ARE RESERVED WITH NO ONE THERE!!

Visiting this campground is a longstanding family tradition. Location is beautiful, trails are great, grounds are well cared for considering the amount of human traffic, and the hosts are helpful. The Nantahala river and forest is a wonderful place. A good camping experience is always dependent on good preparation and a positive attitude. If you've got those down, you'll be near guaranteed for a great time here! And if we all take care of the camp, we can keep it around and in good condition for years and years to come!! (For the love of everything holy, pick up your trash!)

Beware of Site 30! This is a beautiful campground. Clean restrooms. And almost every site we saw was large and shaded. Unfortunately our site had no trees, just a large bush, that's it. The same was true for the "campsites" in the same row. My personal belief is that the space would be better suited as a playground area. We were hammock camping and didn't realize this when booking. Otherwise, it would have been a great place to visit. Great hiking trails surrounding the campground.

Well maintained campground in the mountains between Hayesville and Franklin, NC,. Gorgeous campsites and trails in the Nantahala National Forest and along several creeks and the Natahala River
