Me and my husband bought our first camper and took our first camping trip to Gatlinburg, TN. We found this very nice campground and we are so glad we did. It was great from the get go. Bob directed us to our site and helped my husband set our camper up. We truly appreciated his help because being first time... More

My husband and I stayed here after reading the review on here. So glad we did-the owners were super friendly and kept the grounds and restrooms immaculate. My biggest complaint was the location of the tent sites in relevance to the rvs. The area the tents were located was shaped like a "u" with the rvs being on either side... More

We tried this campground for the first time this October and LOVED everything about it! The owners are very friendly and helpful. Everything about the campground from the grounds to the laundry house is IMMACULATE and in good working order. Also a very pretty location and nestled down off the road next to the woods with a creek running behind... More

Great campground and location. Friendly staff, WiFi worked fantastic, and the bathrooms, showers, laundry room and swimming pool are kept very clean. The trolley stops right in front of the campground and there is a small grocery store right next door which was convenient. Very reasonably priced too. Will definitely stay here again.

Cleanest bathhouse I've ever seen. Right off 321 so you do get traffic noise. Earplugs fix that. Most of the campgrounds we considered staying were right on the road too. Someone commented that the lights were too bright. Usually, I sleep with an eye mask. One night I forgot it but the light didn't bother me at all. They explained... More

Managers Bob and Bonnie were Great!!!! They directed us to the nearest places to get items we needed. After we settled in Bob and Bonnie came to the site and asked if there was anything we needed. They went far to ensure we had a wonderful time. This is the cleanest campground I have ever seen. I would recommend this... More

My husband and I stopped at another campground before coming to this one. The price was extremely high, so we drove to this campground. It is quiet but still close enough to town. The trolley stops here every 30 minutes and will take you into town. The restrooms and showers are extremely clean and nice pool! We really enjoyed our... More

The campground is clean. The pool is clean. The boxes are doubled so I almost needed an extra cord. Close to downtown but far enough out that we did not have to be bothered. Nice place to camp. My son loved the creek. Will stay there again.

This campground is overall wonderful. My boyfriend and I stayed on one of the few tent sites during our trip to hike in the Smokies. A recommendation- there is a Dollar General next to the campground- it's OK for picking up things like ice, snacks, milk, etc., but we found a grocery store after buying all our supplies from DG...
