A terrific campground within Great Smoky Mountain National Park. A creek runs right through the…read moremiddle. Good walking access to several great trails. I love that there are quiet hours (10pm-6am), that generator use is even more restrictive (only daily 8-8), and if that isn't enough, there are tent-only sites available as well. So it's pretty well guaranteed to be peaceful. I think we hiked about 20 miles over the course of a couple of days and I know I spotted two types of mushrooms from our campsite that I hadn't seen on any of the other trails. Pick your day(s) and site number at recreation.gov. Easy access by car. Running water and flush toilets, but no showers. Good tent pads. Three handicapped-accessible ADA sites have 5 amp electrical service for use of medical equipment.

I definitely recommend researching or calling about the features of each loop before booking. After walking about a bit, we were even more pleased with our site in comparison to some of the others. The riverside campsites seem to go the fastest! If that's something that interest you, book early! All the staff we interacted with during our stay were extremely pleasant. The campgrounds were really safe and we have zero complaints. We'll definitely be back!

They really take you to the hidden gems around Pigeon Forge and skip all of the overpriced and overcrowded places. I loved that we got to try liquor, wine, and moonshine so you really get a taste of everything Tennessee has to offer. The lunch that's included was fantastic! We actually came back the next day to grab lunch there again since it was so good. Michael & Jen were amazing! We loved just chatting with them and learning more about Pigeon Forge and spirits in general. They come prepared with pretty much everything you need and even have a wagon to pull all of your purchases in. I would 100% book this tour again! Everyone just kept talking about how much fun they had and it's really a great value. Make sure to say hi to Daryl and Big Sexy at the last stop!

But I told Dave to call Big Meadow and see if they had a RV Mobile technician to recommend. It was our second stop and Christina in the office gave us Tom's number. So this morning Tom fixed the leak and we could finally have water again. We've been here many times and are delighted to have a spot on the Little River. There's a rafting company right next door and it's fun to watch the people come down the river. There is a cement patio and a dog park for Freckles. She was very anxious driving through Atlanta with all the traffic and big trucks all around us. But the beauty and calmness of this campground can make anyone relax. We look forward to enjoying the Smokey Mountains and Cades Cove our favorite.

At my arrival, the office mistakenly saved my debit card information under the wrong customer file…read moreand charged my card. When I brought this to their attention, I was assured that my card information would be removed from the incorrect account and that the issue had been resolved. Despite those assurances, my debit card was charged again. This second charge occurred after I had already notified the staff of the mistake and after I was specifically told that my card information would be deleted. As a result, I spent a significant portion of my vacation dealing with a problem that should never have happened in the first place. Not only did these errors create financial stress and inconvenience, but they also ruined what was supposed to be a relaxing vacation. I trusted your staff to correct the mistake after it was first reported, and unfortunately that trust was misplaced when my card was charged again. I believe it is unreasonable for me to bear the consequences of repeated errors made by the office, particularly after I had notified you of the problem and received assurances that it had been corrected. For these reasons, I respectfully requested a refund and I was denied and told that it was my banks fault for letting the transactions to occur. They won't take accountability and refuse to work with me. This was my debit card that was charged and over $400 and was on hold for a total of 8 days. My bank cancelled my card. Just one headache after another because of all of this. I feel as though they should've accommodated me seeing how their actions and failure to pay attention caused all of this.

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.

The campground is nice in some ways and aggravating in others…read more The sites seem to be wide. Plenty of room between you and your neighbors. Full hookup is great with no problems. Plenty of water pressure. On to the negative- I've not seen any one of authority come through and enforce rules. No security. We're dog owners and our pups stay on a leash and remain quiet. If you don't mind dogs barking everywhere then this is your place. The gravel sites need to be cleaned up. I think I have found our fire ring over in the weeds. A lot of trash all over our site. The pool area was nice, but this is too big of a campground for one pool area. Very crowded and plenty of adults at the pool using vulgar language around our kiddos. There could also be more benches in the play area for us parents who actually supervise our children. In conclusion, we like our spot. It is very trashy. Buts of garbage everywhere. The fire-pit ring is thrown off in the weeds. A lot could be done to make this place nicer. Straighten up the gravel sites. Spray down the weeds growing though the gravel. Fill in the mud holes from people's driving though the grass. This will be our one and only trip to this campground. Updated** Another example- Our last day, there were some adults at the pool. The conversation told us, these people aren't even staying here. They live up the interstate and come just to swim all day. If we had some kind of staff to check on things, this place would be much nicer and better for the paying campers. A positive is there are a lot of children and it's nice to hear them outdoors and playing.

The Center offers a nice exhibit of animals and plants that can be seen in the park. Rangers are available to help answer questions and help design Park itineraries for visitors.

Prices on some items were reasonable. The staff were super friendly despite the crowds. There are rest rooms available...the last real restrooms before entering the Park.
