Scattered throughout the Ocoee Region are all types of overnight accommodations from primitive camping to luxurious cabins and chalets with hot tubs and fireplaces. Hotels and motels are especially prevalent in Cleveland, Tennessee along the Interstate 75 corridor at I-75 exits #25 and #27. Many of the larger hotels have meeting facilities allowing you to mix business with the pleasure of the many outdoor recreational activities of the Cherokee National Forest.
Most bed and breakfast lodging is located in quaint homes of an earlier period in the towns of Ducktown, Benton and in Georgia at McCaysville and Blue Ridge. Innkeepers are noted for their hospitality and knowledge of the local history and attractions.
Tucked into the national forest and along the Ocoee River and Hiwassee River are many of the cabin and resort complexes which have sprung up within the last several years. Immensely popular with the burgeoning tourist trade following the Olympic kayak events in 1996, many summer visitors are discovering that an off season stay in area cabins is a relaxing break from daily living. Associated with many of the cabins are larger lodges designed to sleep a large group under one roof.
Campgrounds in the region are a happy mix of public and private. The USFS operates three - Parksville Lake, Chilhowee Mountain and Thunder Rock while the state of Tennessee (TDEC) maintains Gee Creek Campground on the Hiwassee River. Numerous private CGs help fill the tremendous demand that summer brings and some cater to the unique needs of recreational vehicles (RVs).
