We were there with a group from Bluff City Canoe Club (Memphis). The weather was perfect, the rivers had plenty of water for paddling and we had a great time!

It's always great to stay at a National Park campground. This one is well maintained, the sites are easy to get into and large enough for our fifth wheel. Once you find the campground, the sites are well marked. We did have trouble finding the campground and better signage to get us there would be appreciated. The campground is well placed to see all the National Park and surrounding communities have to offer.

This is a beautiful park. The restrooms were clean and tidy. The campsite was very comfortable and clean. The Mill is only a short 2 minutes drive away. You can also get to lots of other interesting sites as well - Rocky Falls, Klepzig Mill, as well as the various Wild Horse herds. The small town of Eminence is just a short drive away and has anything you might need as well as a few restaurants. We really enjoyed our camping at this park.

The down side was that there were a lot of camping areas, but mainly for tent camping. There was one main area for RV’s, which was ok if you were lucky to get a spot under a tree. Unfortunately, we did not as there were no trees and full sun in lot 602. If they would expand to other areas where there is a lot of shade for RV’s, that would be great! Otherwise, the location was pretty good. We were super close to the beautiful, crystal clear water that we enjoyed sitting in and relaxing for a couple hours each day. Also close to Alley Springs Mill, which was so peaceful and beautiful!
