Smokemont Campground

Always fun camping there it would be great if wood was priced lower

Facilities are quite aged, it’s a shame some of the funding from the most visited National Park in the US doesn’t stay to help update the campgrounds a bit. Beautiful Park and campground though!

Beautiful location. Park staff was very friendly and helpful.

way too many dogs.barking morning noon and night. some campers have as many as 3 or 4 dogs. lots of times they don't follow rules or keep on leash. people who have camped at smokemont for many years are begining to complain how it has changed, Too many dogs!!! campers leaving trash and food in fire pits. Campers in F loop with RVs too long for the site which leads them to park either on the grass or in the road. the recreation.gov site planely ask the length of your unit,this is not being enforced. Also F secection should be for motor homes only .Fifth wheels and tag alongs should be in D loop because of their and tow vehicle. they are the ones parking on the grass and in the road. this year their have been several tents in all areas and plainly says no tents on the entrance post, when they should be in the B loop. Please bring back the peace and serenity to smokemont. Hope someone that care reads this.feel free to respond.

Nice quiet campground, elk all around the area. No hookups and our site was very shaded, so our solar panels didn’t help too much.

Great campsite. The creek was so beautiful and the sounds of it flowing all night was perfect.
The campground is clean and has bathrooms all over the place. Firewood available on the honor system which was super helpful. Overall just an absolutely great campground.

Had a great time camping here. Saw lots of Elk near the campground and the horseback riding at the stables was fun. Bathroom was clean and the campground was quiet and enjoyable the whole time. Close to Cherokee in case anything is needed or just want to go grab lunch.

I spent 2 nights in my small motorhome. The site was level and private.

We just stopped in for one night, but I could have stayed at Smokemont all week. Very peaceful campground, plenty of flush toilets, and fun trails to explore. Camping next to the river was the highlight of the trip. Listening to the flow of water all night was just pure bliss.

The campground was beautiful but not well maintained by people who care. One restroom had a hand dryer out. The other had a flush valve on a fixture that would not work. Between that and the parking fees, the tax payer is being ripped off by an out if control National Park Service that has forgotten to whom the really should feel like they report to. I recently saw a group of 3 park employees working to remove a small tree from the roadside. I could have cut it down, sawed it up and hauled it off in an hour. They were still there messing around hours later. Shameful.
