Site A8 was a great spot for us to camp with other friends within the circle. It was just as private for us a group site would have been, but much cheaper than what the group site would have cost. Very awesome to have a bear box for food containment. The picnic table is looking a bit rough but was still quite sturdy, so bring a tablecloth.

Very nice campground with all paved and mostly level sites. A few sites have a slight slope toward the rear, but not bad. Great visitor center across the road has all the information on things to see and do in the area. Close to Pall Mall, TN and SGT Alvin York State Historical Park. Camp store has ice and firewood. Lots of horse campers here with stables across the main road.

This campground is a gem! We tent camped in an electric/water site close to bathrooms. Everything is clean and well maintained. Can’t wait to go back!
