Yes, we camp at Roan Mt several times a year as it is close to home and makes a good place to go on short notice.

I love Roan. However, I heard that it is really hard to get in during the summer?
So, if I wanted to camp there one weekend.. how early in the week would I need to get my TT there to get a space?

thansk!

What we usually do is call the campground at Roan Mt. and ask if they have any sites available and if so how many, they can also let you know if sites will be available later in the day. It takes about 20-30 to drive so if they have a couple of sites open, then we take a chance on getting there. We have always found a site, but I've never been around holidays. We figured if they were full when we got there, we'd just drive to NC or somewhere else close by, we're kinda spontaneous. Last fall we went up there and we had one whole loop by ourselves.

Also the bottom loop is almost always full, but we don't mind being "up on the hill". Most of the sites can fit any size camper, ours is only 8' so we can squeeze in almost anywhere.

Thanks Dice. We have been to Roan twice in the last 5 weeks. Only the bottom loop was open.

You can check out our pics if you want... if you see us at Roan say Hey : )
