Some of the sites are much better than what I got. There were no flat spots on the site, it was very close to my neighbor and I was up against a fence for a water tower. The bathroom facilities were good and the campground in general was good, I just didn't get a very good site. Avoid the water tower area (F loop).

Camping was perfect here. My site was surrounded by woods with only a path into it. I came in on a Monday and it was very quiet with only a couple other campers near by on Wednesday it started filling in but each site was spaced nicely and noise was not an issue. Hiking along the AT that goes around the campground was beautiful with lots of scenic overlooks. Lots of trails to choose from nearby as well! The most amazing part for me was how the deer were everywhere! They would follow their path eating the berries and foliage in the morning and the evening. They would come very close so I was able to grab a few good pics and videos of them too. It was a very peaceful relaxing experience and I can’t wait to visit again!

Bathrooms were absolutely filthy, showers unusable and the fee to shower is absolutely way too high. Would not recommend to anyone

Super nice campground in close proximity to the southern end of the park and great hiking opportunities. Water is very accessible in multiple locations around the campground. Very clean and quite environment.

There’s a lot of campgrounds but they are nicely separated by trees and foliage, so you get a good solitary feeling as well. Facilities were clean and staff was super helpful.
