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.

This was a gem. Our first time here and the site is nicely shaded and these are the biggest sites I have ever camped in.
The camp hosts were awesome and very helpful.

Didn't know what to expect but the experience was the best! Wondering why my parents never took us growing up being so close. We only did Beach camping. This camping trip was so much fun. Can't wait to be back.

We have been going for 10 years and this visit was very unpleasant. The bathrooms were filthy flies at entrances. Trash overflowing. The host live like homeless so the campgrounds look that way. We were there for 4 days and bathrooms were never cleaned. Toilet paper was put in. Very sad to see a campground go down hill. Probably will never stay there again. Fire pits were not cleaned we had coals and paper in ours. We watched the guy clean next door. And all he did was take a rake around fire pit. The road inside the campground is very uneven in places too. I hope you take this serious. It was one of our favorite places

Super tight and narrow campground road. Close to proximity to Snow Summit which made it great for mtn biking.
