We actually couldn't camp there. A huge storm came in as soon as I started setting up the tent. My 10y son who was sent to the camp bulletin board came back with the weather forecast there that the storm wouldn't stop until 2am. We opted to leave the campground and found a hotel room just a few miles east in town. The campground seems be at a perfect spot, an ideal setting top on the list compared to all other two dozen national park campgrounds we have been to. I personally would love to camp in rain and enjoy everything this experience would provide. But I was alone with two young children....Anyways, we returned to the park second day...Love Smokies!

It's a beautiful area. Nice clean campground. Camp sites are spacious and well equipped. Showers are pay by quarter and for a 10 min shower it's about $8. Laundry on site. Also pay by quarter. Campground has a store you can go to. This is not a campground where they have bear bins. Book tours well in advance. There's no cell service to book when you get there and they all sell out in advance or the few left in the morning sell out immediately.

Really nice campground. It was well kept, quiet, close to many activities in the park- hiking, tours, bike trail etc. We really loved going to the ranger talks in the evening.

Campsites are fairly close together and there are no showers on site. Bathrooms were fine. Easy to find your spot.

The camp site was in walking distance to the visitor center, the historic entrance, hiking trails, and Caver’s - perfect spot for ice cream at the end of the day. Highly recommend the clean campground with helpful friendly rangers, clean bathrooms, and the most reasonable prices! Don’t miss the programs the amphitheater - which is in walking distance!

Ranger on duty was very helpful and moved our site as the original site was sloped and would have been difficult to level. Also learned that when a pass is purchased at the park most stays there for their use so I purchased my Senior Pass there and they also refunded part of my cave tours for the discount- all were very helpful
