I could go into detail, it would take to long .If you've been here before and love it. You want like it. You can't have visitors I used the laundry facilities really nice paid enough on that app for pay range to do all week. I went back the next day to do laundry there was a sign said closed for renovation. I asked was it broken he said no .I then ask if they are starting today he didn't know When they would start. I Think they should have posted a sign telling when it would close off season preferably . There's nothing wrong with it .I think they just didn't won't to clean it due to the bad weather. That's just a few. Maybe it better if you try yourself it's only one vacation wasted would

I have taken my g-kids to a Jellystone RV Park in Bremen, GA and it was a great park, there was plenty to do to keep our g-kids busy, hands down. That was the reason for our making reservations here, don't waste your money! One pool was closed it was green, the other a backyard pool is almost bigger. Again, very disappointed. I wish I could end this review with something positive, but I have nothing!

    Well, I did my research and this is definitely the campground where this happened. To be clear,…read morethis is the park located at 2479 Riverbend Loop, Unit 1, Pigeon Forge, TN 37863, just off of Henderson Chapel Road. This is the location with the central fishing pond that has the small island in the middle, the decorative 'old-timey' outhouse, and the little cabin where you sign in and they sell merchandise. I was here with my family around Winter 2019-2020. I was on my evening walk and saw a campground worker driving a golf cart up the steep hill. There was a family and their kids watching him drive recklessly. As he went around the bend and came back down, he hit a slope and the whole golf cart flipped over. The cart was headed straight for me; I could have stepped aside and let it crash, but I decided to be a nice person and save the cart from hitting people below. I stopped the cart and parked it. As I walked towards the worker to check if he was ok and see if I could help, his pants fell down, and the nearby family started pointing and laughing at him. The worker was a white male, about 6ft tall, heavyset with a scruffy beard. Later that night, while I was out taking pictures of the fireworks, he and a friend--a tall, skinny white male with long black hair about 6ft 2in--drove their golf carts past me at alarming speeds, flipped me off, and called me the N-word. I was only a freshman in high school at the time and was in a daze at what I had seen. I haven't had a lot of incidents like this so you can imagine my reaction. I called the office to report this, and the woman I spoke to was dismissive and tried to claim they don't have an island in their pond or that I have the wrong park. She even tried to claim I described a 'young man' when I never did--I specifically described a 6ft, heavyset man with a beard at the time that I was tell her this which is funny because he was a young man and thus proving my point that she knows exactly who he is. I know exactly where I was because of the specific layout of the island and the office cabin at this address. If these men are still employed here, they should be terminated. No guest, especially a teenager, should be subjected to racial slurs and harassment by staff.

    Great quiet place to stay right outside the hustle and bustle. No pool or bathrooms but the river…read morelulls you to sleep at night and the ducks and geese as well as the people are friendly

The amenities were top-notch--from the pool and lazy river to the arcade and so much more. There are endless options to keep the kids entertained while also providing a great atmosphere for parents to relax and unwind. We made some wonderful family memories and would definitely recommend staying here!

    This resort is presents stereotypical Americana as might be seen through the eyes of someone from a…read moreforeign country: over the top, extreme consumerism for Americans. This is a big operation. Lot's of staff, well organized and run, and it offers plenty of amenities. Nestled in the heart of the Smoky Mountains, this resort blends the rugged charm of camping with the laid-back spirit of Margaritaville. We stopped by with a group of 100 RVers for a multi-day rally. This place is big enough to accommodate large groups. RVers will find premium sites designed for comfort and convenience. Spacious pads, full hookups, and stunning mountain views set the tone. And whether you're here for a short weekend or an extended stay, you'll appreciate the outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and modern bathhouses thoughtfully scattered throughout the grounds. But the offerings don't stop at great RV amenities. The resort is bursting with ways to fill your days. Families can splash away at the water park, complete with a lazy river and two-story slide. Meanwhile, the hot tub and private cabanas call to those craving downtime. Hungry? The on-site Fins Bar & Chill serves island-inspired meals you can enjoy with a cocktail by the pool. Or, grab something casual at the coffee shop when you're in a hurry to hit the hiking trails. Speaking of adventures, you're in the ideal spot to explore Pigeon Forge. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is just minutes away, offering countless trails, streams, and scenic overlooks. Or, stick closer to home with a visit to Dollywood or The Island, both just a short trip from the resort. What makes this place truly special, though, is the atmosphere. It's lively yet peaceful, a mix of energy and calm that feels just right. Whether you're traveling solo, with family, or towing along your four-legged friend (yes, it's pet-friendly), Camp Margaritaville caters to all kinds of explorers. For RVers looking for more than just a stopover, this resort is a destination in its own right. We didn't get any pix -- we were too busy socializing. But see our separate review of the nearby Old Mill Restaurant.

    We enjoyed our stay and will be coming back. The good: facilities seemed to be well managed,…read moreclean and at a great location. There is even a trolly stop to get into town from the front entrance. The weekend we were there, it was packed. Even so, the site was easy enough to back into. Tons of campers had their TVs out to watch the game and grilling, but there was little noise and noting disturbed us inside our rig. Kids enjoyed the pool and having fun while many families rented the facilities golf carts to get around the camp. The Bad: The campground is way more packed and has smaller sites than what the photos indicate. You will find it to be congested, especially on the weekends. Also, some sites to not have a dumping capability, you will need to dump at a common site when leaving. All and all, we will certainly be coming back.

We found the campground to be nearly empty. Lazy River Pool was heated and the hot tub was nice to have to ourselves. Showers and bathrooms clean (again, only a handful of campers here). Laundry was $2 each for wash and dry. Enjoyed our stay and will return during warmer weather to experience the Great Smokies (most roads closed during our stay due to icy conditions in the NP)

    I think that so far this has been my favorite RV park, we've been traveling and living in our RV so…read morewe've had the chance to explore some parks. This park has very nice spots, and the premium ones are amazing (we just saw them, they were kinda of pricey for our budget), they also have an arcade, a lazy river, a kiddos' pool and a small splash pad, they also offer a gym and laundromat, and for the furry babies they have a "bark park", and a doggie wash. Te lazy river is very nice, is heated and has the right size to just chill out, the children's pool is cold, but I guess is good for the little ones to refresh in it, I didn't go to the spa but I saw people relaxing in there, and there's also an adult pool, but you could see kids in there as well, my son had a blast. The laundromat has really good prices compared to other ones I have seen and been to, and I loved the gym, it's very well equipped and it was empty, so I was able to use whatever I wanted, they also have cleaners for the equipment and a very good size TV, just bring your water because they don't have a water dispenser in there. We didn't use the arcade, but it looked very nice with a lot of games in there, they also have a playground that is shaded by a beautiful tree, and during the weekends an ice cream bus comes to visit. The doggie wash was amazing, and its real cheap, just $10, I even think my doggies enjoyed it, the dryer needs more time, but you can add money for that. Overall our experience was great, it's located in a great area where pretty much everything is close by, I definitely want to come back.

I cannot walk to my camper door without walking through 6 inches of water, much less sit outside and enjoy an evening of camping with my kids and dogs. I called to talk to the front desk and they said it will recede. Seriously? None of the sites around us have standing water. This site has a drainage issues and it needs to be fixed before someone else has to suffer through staying here. Do not stay on site 82. Update. The pool is nothing like pictured. It looks to be like 20 years old with no maintenance ever. The lazy river has about 5 tubes available to use and it's 95 degrees in there. The gym was closed due to air conditioning issues There is no dog wash anymore even though it shows it on the map. We tried to ask for more stone on our site and they ignored our request. They never even sent maintenance by. Do not stay at this sun outdoors. This is the worse campground I have stayed at in a long time.
