Such a beautiful place. Excellent hiking trail around the beautiful lake. Campsites are excellent

Camp hosts are annoying

We love Indian Boundary - just wish we had discovered it years sooner than we did. We have camped there 5 times since May. New natural wonders to enjoy each season.

The lake and beach area made for a nice walk, but overall, there just wasnt enough to make me want to come back. Hammocks arent allowed, and the constant car and bike traffic in front of the campsites made it stressful to move aroundespecially with small children. Walking to a neighboring site meant having to look both ways every time, and at night, several cyclists sped by without lights, which made things even more nerve-wracking. The site pads themselves were very tough, which made staking the tents difficult. It seems to be a better fit for campers or RVs than for tent camping. The bathrooms were decentnot terrible, but not great eitherand the camp host came across as a bit of a power trip. Theres a small store on-site with just about everything you might need, but it gives the place a more commercial feel rather than that sense of escaping into nature.Overall, its not a bad spot for the area, but I personally dont see what all the hype is about and probably wouldnt return.

Always a great place to camp, but especially in October. Beautiful fall foliage. A good place to just be. Thanks.

This is one of our favorite places to camp! We love the Cherokee National Forest, Tellico Plains, the Cherohala Skyway and Indian Boundary!

Indian Boundary is the best camping experience anywhere. It's a beautiful, peaceful location.

Very nice campground. Clean restrooms. Beautiful views.
@JessicaB446666 · Camped on Oct 6, 2025 at Campsite #14
Great campground! It was fairly full but still quiet at night. The hosts were welcoming, bathroom was clean, and the store had all the essentials plus some fun items. Will definitely come back.

Always a great time camping here. Friendly hosts, clean facilities, quiet area.

The park was great: clean bathrooms, friendly staff, and well-maintained hiking trails (the 3.5 mile loop around the lake was a lot of fun). Also, the lake itself is great for kayaking - very calm water. It's a beautiful place, and I'll definitely be returning.

Favorite campground for 30 years.

We had a wonderful camp site. All the guests we came in contact with were very nice. We took the grandkids and they loved riding bikes, the beach and hiking . We loved being with the grandkids. Oh, and fishing .
@GarlandHABA400 · Camped on Sep 30, 2025 at Campsite #19
Great site. Level and near the water and has a view. The site was a mess of discarded food and trash in the fire ring and around the perimeter. The previous campers had obviously scrapped their plates just off the gravel pad. It was disgusting. Someone the park had obviously blown off the site with a leaf blower before I got there. They shouldve been able to see the filth and did nothing. Still other than that everything was very good. I love this campground!
@JosephC1997223 · Camped on Sep 28, 2025 at Campsite #19
Very peaceful and relaxing visit. The site was large and clean, as were the rest rooms. The only thing that would have made this trip better is if I had caught a fish. I got skunked!
@KarenH5592205 · Camped on Sep 28, 2025 at Campsite #31
Absolutely beautiful campground! Great people who run it too!
@MelanieNAE7C4A · Camped on Sep 28, 2025 at Campsite #44
Some noise issues, hosts allow loud radios, leaf blowers and flutes!
@HalH4640254B57 · Camped on Sep 28, 2025 at Campsite #1
Peaceful, well stocked lake. Clean facilities. Well stocked store.
@KimberlyK66506 · Camped on Sep 23, 2025 at Campsite #4
The place is absolutely gorgeous. There was an issue with loop A bathroom attendant. I understand bathrooms are closed from 8-9 for cleaning and you do your best to use it before 8am. My friend and I were at an ADA site due to her disability. At 8:50 am she really had to go. The attendant was done in womens bathroom. The attendant refused to let her in stating "rules are "rules. However the very next morning i observed the attendant allowing a male into the bathroom at the same time. 8:50 am. This is a disgrace. This took place September 25th and 26th.
@MichaelD829846 · Camped on Sep 21, 2025 at Campsite #75
What a fantastic campground! The sites are mostly wooded, well spaced apart and come with electric at an extremely fair cost of $20 per night. Staff were very helpful and the camp store is well stocked and staffed. Beautiful trail around the pond that has a nice beach area too. We loved it.
@JimmyB90966164 · Camped on Sep 19, 2025 at Campsite #17
A larger bathroom needed on Loop A...bathroom has only one bathroom stall and one shower stall Cell phone service would also be nice
@JeanetteM15771 · Camped on Sep 19, 2025 at Campsite #83
Indian Boundary had everything we needed. We had a great time!
@DeanE3433185 · Camped on Sep 17, 2025 at Campsite #20
Love camping at IB, just nature
@JamesA9218565 · Camped on Sep 14, 2025 at Campsite #16
Never realized how great it is to unplug from technology and tune in to nature at Indian Boundary
@carlaw71101509 · Camped on Sep 12, 2025 at Campsite #50
Once we gave this campground a try we were hooked. We tent camp and having hot showers and electricity was a game changer for us. Another plus is they are pet friendly. The hosts are great as well. This was our 3rd year and we'll keep coming back.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
