Host couple had a dog that barked almost constantly when outside their camper and especially when they were hanging out at the entrance station. You could hear it throughout the campground and picnic area. Very obnoxious .

1. Campsites not as pictured. More info needs to be provided so that trailers and RV's can judge whether or not the site is appropriate for their rig. We had to park our 17' trailer on site #52, and could never get it close to level.
2. No showers and no water spigots available. Also, no dishwashing facilities, so all gray water is supposed to be transported to toilets and flushed. Not very feasible.
3. Beautiful environment, and helpful staff.

Such a beautiful campground! This was my first solo camping adventure. I was a little nervous, but this was such an amazing place for my first solo trip! Very family friendly, love the constant running of the creek and falls. Great hiking trails and tubing!

Great location for what I call white water tubing, pretty safe but a lot of fun. Disney would spend millions to try to create this adventure but wouldn't come close. Campground along the creek for wade -in / wade out to borrow a phrase from skiing. Great campsites. I also like that it is 2-3 miles to Bryson City, so groceries and brew pubs are very close by-accessibility here is one of the best in Smoky Mountain campgrounds.

Not all sites have lantern posts, which is a bit annoying for someone that is showing up with a lantern. I changed sites, but had to change back to my original booking on the final day, which was a bit frustrating. The sites are QUITE close together, and shuttling back and forth from one's vehicle pretty much entails just walking through other people's campsites, since there are no paths. The lights in the restroom were activated by the presence/absence of ambient light, which meant that for the period in the evening from about 8 to 9pm, it was simply dark inside, which was, again, somewhat annoying.

The campground rangers were very helpful. It is convenient to the deep creek loop trail and others that include views of waterfalls and an opportunity for casual to challenging hikes. The location is also convenient to Bryson City which offers store, restaurants and other activities that can be combined with camping

This is must stop at the beginning of the blue rigde parkway. The place is clean, well kept, and nice crew. The white water river crosses the park and you can easily hike to nice waterfalls. Great with kids, as well for a couple that loves nature.

Wanted to give it 5 stars. But they just allow dogs to bark ALL day long. Rangers do nothing about it. It’s sooooo beautiful though. Just wish they wouldn’t allow dogs that bark all day and at everything. And honestly not sure why y’all allow dogs in this campground. It’s part of the park. Thanks for listening.
