About
The High Knob Recreation Area was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the late 1930's. This remote and private location offers cooler summer temperatures due to its higher mountain elevation. The area offers a campground and day use and picnic area along a scenic mountain lake. Many of the original CCC structures are still in use here today.
