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.

Campers are really loud. It seems everyone and music blasting. The bathroom were poor and unmaintained.
People left there food out and the campsite would be littered with trash from all creatures digging through. Would have been better if people just respected the area more.

We have stayed in Pine Knot before. It's a quiet peaceful place with friendly people. The facilities are convenient and well maintained. Definitely a "must stay at" on any campers list.

Basic campground close to town and activities, the camp host was super nice and warned of recent bears intruding camp (I read this on the website ahead of time so prepared accordingly), they do have bear boxes, which is great. Bathroom is very basic, flush toilets but small and a bit run down. You have to drive through ski summit's parking lot to get to the campground, which was a bit confusing, but it's tucked away behind the neighborhood there. Lots of lovely birds and adorable squirrels. Overall I'd stay there again!
