Tail of the Dragon Resort Campground 2 - Views

Dragon Rest Cabins is the perfect gateway to enjoy relaxing nights around the community fire pit and overlooking the blue ridge mountains while telling stories to your friends. Whether it is after a day of riding the iconic Tail of the Dragon, hiking the Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest or Whitewater Rafting the Cheoah River, you will have plenty of anecdotes to share and undoubtedly plenty of laughter. If you choose so, you can also take on your friends to a relaxing pool game or challenge them to a heated dart game.

Our cabins are minutes from the adventures of riding the Trail of the Dragon and the Cherohala Skyway. We offer quaint and restful cabins, with simple commodities. We know you wont stay inside very much, so we have the necessary for a heavenly sleep and rejuvenating shower before you head back out.

We have 6 cabins available so you can book one or as many as you want. This listing is to rent the second half of the campground with 3 cabins. 1 cabin can accommodate 2 guests on a queen bed. We have 2 cabins that can accommodate 4 guests (one queen bed, one bunk bed with two single beds). One of these 3 cabins is an ADA accessible cabin with a ramp and grab bars in the bathroom.

The Dragon is popular and internationally famous destination for motorcycle and sports car enthusiasts since 1981. Known as America’s number 1 motorcycle and sports car road, famous for its 318 curves in 11 miles (18 km). The road earned its name from its curves being said to resemble a dragons tail. The stretch bears the street name Tapoco Road in North Carolina and Calderwood Highway in Tennessee and is signed entirely by US 129 (hidden SR 115).

Deals Gap, also known as Tail of the Dragon, is a portion of U.S. Route 129 in Blount County, Tennessee, situated in a gap in Swain County, North Carolina, United States. It was publicized as one of the most scenic drives in USA. This road is appealing to those who are looking for adrenaline rush and excitement. With hundreds of blind curves, long blind crests, and high degrees of camber, this road presents plenty of opportunities to leave the pavement both laterally, and longitudinally, and will provide a challenge even for the most seasoned drivers/bikers.

The Great Smoky Mountains and Cherokee National Forest border the Dragon, there is no development along the 11-mile stretch, this adds to safety as well as natural beauty. The Dragon stretch of US 129 is double-lined as no passing (there are pull offs you can use to allow tailgaters to get ahead of you.) There are also pull-off points along the route for scenic overlooks. The road is certainly breathtaking, but has a fearsome reputation, speed limit was posted at 30 mph in 2002 and still in effect today. Trucks are also prohibited to enter the road due to previous accidents and incidents involving trucks and semi-tractor.

The best time to drive this road is between March and November. Winter months can be hard to predict. The weather on this zone is harsh and highly unpredictable and it does not take much time for the bright sun shine to change over to moderate to heavy snow fall. This road had a reputation for being extremely dangerous because of unpredictable snowstorms and blizzards, and driving under these conditions, can be challenging. This road is not for the faint hearted, but if you are looking for a little excitement and adrenaline pumping journey, don't miss this one.
