Pineknot Campground offers a beautiful, well-maintained setting with friendly hosts, making it an enjoyable experience for many campers. The sites are clean, spacious, and mostly shaded, with convenient access to nearby attractions and hiking trails. While there are minor concerns such as noise from neighboring sites and the absence of showers, overall, visitors appreciate the campground's cleanliness, management, and friendly atmosphere.

Site specific. Not a lot of space in ours. Slight uphill slant with one of our tents. Rangers were nice, delivered the firewood we needed. Lost bikers gong through our site was annoying. Next door to the summit, so check their event schedules.

The campsite was clean and well kept. Restroom and dumpsites could have been a bit better in terms of cleanliness.

Angie was the friendliest Host I have ever experienced with the many times I have camped in the past. She always said hi and checked in once in a while to see how we where doing. You can tell she enjoys her job at Pineknot campground. Thank you Angie!!!!!

There shouldn’t be campfires allowed when the ground is so dry. The campsites are close together and the smoked filled our sleeping area nightly.
