Camping In NC Can Be A Memorable Holiday
Americans and enterprising foreigners choosing a vacation trip that makes nature the focus might consider camping in NC. For those who are unfamiliar with the state, you need to know first of all that there are three identifiable regions: the mountains in the west, the Atlantic coast on the east and the Piedmont heartland. With the Atlantic to the east, North Carolina has Tennessee on its western border, Virginia on its north, and Georgia and South Carolina to the south. There are many, many locations to choose, offering campers of all types something they would like. These include the Linville Gorge, Mount Mitchell, the Blue Ridge Parkway, national forests, waterfalls, hiking trails, bike trails and horse trails amongst the sites to enjoy.
Camping locations in North Carolina
As there are so many options, a way to narrow them is to decide what type of experience you envision for yourself, your friends and/or your family. Do you want to make it as natural as possible? Would you prefer available showers and water? Do cabins for rent appeal? Do you have an RV you would like to take with you to a RV park? Are there special events you want to visit as well?
Some useful tips for travelers
Research is critical. Spend a little time on the computer or the phone to save yourself from unexpected surprises. Needless to say, the state offers resources to help you explore your options; and there are certainly many other online sites available.
Keep the following in mind: chairs and coolers cannot help you stake your claim to a spot next to yours at campsites in national parks. Tents must be set up. If you try to use chairs and coolers to stake claim to a spot, they will removed and placed in the lost and found.
Narrowing your choices
Use your computer to access the many websites that will help you decide amongst the wide number of choices available. General, specific and individual website resources help you find what type of campsites you are looking for and then to help narrow your options. A useful book about tent campsites for those interested in going this way is the guidebook entitled The Southern Appalachian & Smoky Mountains that even has a list of top locations such as the Standing Indian Campground in Franklin, NC; the Black Mountain Campground in Burnsville, NC; Linville Falls Campground in Spruce Pine, NC to name a few. Some readers might want to stop with the top 20 list in this book;but, it is useful to know that the choice is broad and plentiful to satisfy even the most finicky traveler.
How to make the most of your experience in NC
Think ahead. Plan and prepare. You will have a camping vacation that memories are made of with just a little forethought.
