Sams Gap Scenic Overlook Reviews
It was a lovely little surprise! Maybe a little bathroom would be helpful there as well. We walked around a little and behind the one wall there was so much tissue paper and smell of urine. ? so just don't walk that way. Go up the steps and look out. That was worth it. I'd even say you could have a little wedding there if it was allowed. Beautiful background.
Beautiful Scenic Overlook for a pitstop on your way to Asheville and beyond. Located right before the North Carolina/Tennessee State line on I-26 East, it's a great spot to stop and stretch your legs. Get your two legged and four legged passengers out for a quick walk up to the overlook point. I will warn you that there are no restrooms or covered facilities here, just a scenic overlook to enjoy the mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee.

Indoor clean and a/c bathrooms, hundreds of brochures and booklets about the areas...read full review
