What campers say
Lost Mine Campground is a small, well-maintained mountain campground a short drive from the Nantahala Outdoor Center and Appalachian Trail access. Sites beside a bubbling creek are popular for a peaceful, scenic stay; there’s a tucked-away waterfall and primitive back sites for privacy. Facilities are basic but clean—showers, common areas, and firewood available—and rates are noted as reasonable. Owners run a tight, quiet-friendly operation: many guests appreciate the enforced quiet and welcoming regulars, though a few have reported brusque interactions with management. Good choice if you value proximity and tranquility over extensive amenities.
