Platform Tents

NOC makes group camping easy!  Sturdy wooden platforms are enclosed with heavy-duty canvas for a rustic camping experience.  The platform tents are tucked in a quiet corner of NOC's main campus on the Nantahala River with a campfire pit nearby.  Portable toilets are available at the campsite with flush toilets and pay showers (April-October) a short distance away.

Platform tents are for groups of 10 or more and only one group is permitted at a time.  Guests must provide their own sleeping bags and pads.  Platform tents accommodate up to 26 persons.  The site max is 40 persons including the platform tents and personal tents.  $8 per person per night for both platform tent and personal tent camping.
