Clay County is a quiet community tucked away in the southwestern corner of North Carolina where nature's beauty abounds. That beauty lies nearly unchanged.

You can find your own "secret" place to get away from the city.  It may be a secluded mountain top retreat with scenic views and a babbling brook running alongside your cabin. Or, you may prefer a lake side getaway on the shores of Lake Chatuge. Maybe a  campsite in one of our spacious campgrounds or a favorite spot in the 64,200 acres of US Forest land may define your "secret" place.

No matter what your taste or desire, Clay County offers you the getaway you deserve.  Give us a visit, and you will feel like you are home.
