We will gather around the campfire near Cherokee, North Carolina, to share stories and friendship. You will be able to go hiking, tour the town, shop or drive the south end of the Blue Ridge Parkway.
- The Cherokee/Great Smokies KOA Holiday is a beautifully landscaped campground adjacent to the Raven Fork river in the Qualla Boundary, home to the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Nation
- Learn about their rich history of the Cherokee Nation at the Museum of the Cherokee People
- Fish for trout right in the campground on the annually-stocked Raven Fork river
- Take home an authentic one-of-a-kind treasure from the Qualla Arts and Crafts gift shop or the Native American Craft Shop
- A short hike brings you to Mingo Falls, at 120 feet, one of the tallest and most spectacular in the southern Appalachians
- The charming towns of Bryson City, Sylva and Maggie Valley are a short drive away
- The southern terminus of the Blue Ridge Parkway is in Cherokee, so you can start or end a trip with this rally!
We’ve reserved 38 sites in the center of the Cherokee/Great Smokies KOA Holiday campground (i.e., those in light pink on the website’s campground map.) All sites are pull-through, full-hookup, 50/30, paved with a picnic table and firepit. We are getting a group discount of 15% so make sure you say you’re with the Carolinas Airstream Club when you call. The sooner you book, the better, as you can lock in this year’s rate.
Come join us in beautiful Cherokee. And by popular demand, we’re returning one week after the Cherokee rally back to Blue Ridge Falls RV Resort near Lake Toxaway from June 11-14, 2026! Don’t miss your chance to start your summer travels at two true gems of the mountains!
And don't forget to register with the Rally Hosts after you make your campground reservation!
Hope you can join us!
