Commentary

Holly Cove RV Resort brings the beauty of North Carolina's mountains to your RV doorstep. We visited in mid-October when the leaves on the sourwood and dogwood trees were shimmering red.The RV sites are tiered up a steep slope, giving each RV a sense of privacy. We were in western North Carolina to explore Cherokee, the Mountain Farm Museum in Great Smoky Mountains National Park and area waterfalls, and to begin our journey up the Blue Ridge Parkway. Holly Cove RV Resort was conveniently located to each of those attractions.
