Andy and Mary are the hosts of this tranquil spot along the Cullasaja River just outside of Franklin, NC. This property has been in the McGavic family since 1978 when Andy’s mom and dad found this place and fell in love with it. They used it as a refuge from their busy lives in Florida and “home base” when traveling all over the country on their motorcycle. A few years ago, Andy and Mary took over the lovely property and decided it was too nice not to share. They enjoy exploring the many mountain roads in their Jeep, cooking with friends around the campfire and tubing down the river.
We definitely enjoyed this peaceful, beautiful little campsite. Hosts were very nice and helpful. We will be going back in the spring!
Lovely campground, lovely hosts. Quiet. On the river. You can walk down the steps to a little beach, bring your chair and a book. Nice camp spots. Well maintained.
The highway is like 120' away. Non stop parade of 55 mph + of cars trucks and motorcycles start at 7am through 9am non stop. Sounds like camping on the tarmack ar JFK Airport. Then at rush hour 5pm it starts again until 7pm. 7 days a week. Poison ivy growing at back of campsite. Dangerous staircase to get down to the river. Right next to the highway and overpass. No WiFi. No cable. No laundry. No bathrooms.
Very quiet, well maintained, awesome spot on the river! Andy and Mary were great! From us initially getting there Andy helped get us into our spot and made sure we were all set up for our stay! Having the river steps away to fish and let the dogs swim was absolutely perfect! We are very appreciative of both of them for welcoming us and our fur kids to their little slice of heaven. If you're in the Franklin, NC area, we highly recommend Andy & Mary's spot!
