You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, around here you'll find a large number of good places.

if you want to stay the night, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. This is a pretty short section so better bring some good walking shoes. This is the only paddling section along Little Loss Creek. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a
nearby campground. The scenic beauty of Polk County and the cool fresh water attract people from near and far. The Great Smoky Mountains scenery is wonderful.
