Experience the Cherokee National Forrest.
Camp Cherokee on Lake Ocoee
Located in the Cherokee National Forrest on Parksville Lake, Camp Cherokee is a 50-acre rustic setting with closed and open-air cabins, a large pavillion and dining hall, industrial kitchen and sports play areas.
A vision of former pastor Marvin Gibson and the First Baptist Cleveland church family, Camp Cherokee became a part of the church in 1977. It has become a dearly loved place for meeting with The Lord right in His creation.
Each year, Camp Cherokee hosts church groups from across the southeast for special events including family reunions and overnight stays. Camp Cherokee is a seasonal camp with availabilities between May and October.
