View from the overlook is stunning on a sunny day but we often don't see much due to clouds and haze. The toilets appear to be nothing but glorified out-houses with no running water for flush. They a… Full review by Eaton_Out

I am sorry I cannot remember. We were at so many parks that week. Many did allow dogs. I tried to post link to site but not allowed.

Owners will be asked to remove noisy or dangerous pets or pets that threaten or harass wildlife" The walk to Ratcliff falls is quite a hike.

There is limited space atop Caesar's Head. If no one has the same idea as you it will be fine. Otherwise it will be very crowded. If you like to hike, a 3.5 mile trek to the top of nearby Table Rock would be better for watching the eclipse. There is lots of room on top of the mountain. If I didn't have to work that day I'd go up there myself.
Q:
How far is the closest grocery store from the park?
A:
I know Brevard is 15 miles down the road. Might not be the closest, but I thought it was easiest.

Q:
Hi, how far is the suspension bridge from the parking lot? Some of the trails are closed due to the wildfires so I'm curious to see if there's still access to the suspension bridge and how long it takes to get there. Thanks!
A:
I believe it is about a 1 mile or so. Don't quote me on that! Do double check with the rangers before you venture out due to the wildfires. All the best.
