From Hayesville, NC, take US Rt. 64 east 4.7 miles to Jack Rabbit sign. Turn right at sign and go 0.9 miles to another Jack Rabbit sign (State Rt. 175). Turn right onto Rt. 175 and go 2.5 miles to Jack Rabbit Recreation Area sign (Jack Rabbit Campground Rd.). Turn right onto Jack Rabbit Campground Rd. and go 1.4 miles to campground.
The area is beautiful and the campground is good overall. Restrooms could use some improvement. The sites next to the water are great. The inner spots in the A loop are too close together, like you're camping with the people next to you. I was at 021 on the A loop. The nearby town of Hiawassee is small but nice.
Nice tucked away little area on the lake. Very clean and beautiful scenery. Each spot has a picnic table and fire pit. We’d definitely stay here again and you can’t beat the prices for a campsite.
Really great mtb trails. Very well maintained an very flowing. Definitely recommend checking out
This was our second visit to Jackrabbit Mountain Campground - site 52B. Absolutely a wonderful place to stay. Bathhouse and showers were a short walk away. Water was on the other side of the street from the site. The site has stairs as well as 2 other ways to get the gear down to the pad. Definitely will be returning.
I spent a 3 day weekend camping here and enjoyed my stay. There are public restrooms with showers, however handsoap and paper towels are not provided be sure to pack your own or bring sanitizer. Toilet paper did run out twice during my 3 day weekend stay, I recommend packing toilet paper as well. Camp ground has drinking water access but no electric, even in the RV sites. Cell service was 2 to 3 bars of 4G on average (I have at&t 5g) Easy access to boat ramps and the beach from Loop A. Dumpsters on site for trash. Leashed pets aloud in campsites but not on beaches. No alcohol permitted. Trails are nice, lots of wild life active in the area.
