This was our sixth consecutive year camping at Big Meadows. It was, again, a good experience. The service provided was as good as each previous year. Nothing occurred to make us question whether we should return for a seventh year.

The Big Meadows area has several hikes that are good family hikes, such as Dark Hollow Falls and the Bearfence Rock Scramble. We had a group of five families and were able to reserve campsites next to each other. The Visitor Center main exhibit was focused on the history of the park. The kids would have preferred more exhibits explaining the wildlife. The Rangers were excellent.

I think the number of restroom facilities was not sufficient for the size of the campground. I also think the shower facilities were too expensive .

Nice RV campground. No utilities- has a dump station. Sites are wooded with limited ability to use solar. AT trail is connected to campground as well as other trails. Showers are super expensive ($10), and in my opinion at least one a day should be included in the cost of your spot (similar to what Yellowstone does). There is a laundromat with a box to share items with people through hiking the AT. Nearby is a lodge- the porch is great for watching sunsets. You can eat in the restaurant or in the pub downstairs. Try the berry ice cream at the pub.

This location is convenient to a ranger station with gift shop. The gift shop has a range of camping supplies. There is back in RV parking at the Ranger Station. Rangers were super helpful at recommending trails.

Overall a good 5 day camping trip (hike in camp site in big Meadows) with great views, hiking and stargazing. We were without power for 2 days (no lights, hot water in the bathroom, etc.) & the Sky meadows lodge was uncomfortably warm for our one dinner not at our campsite. We could see the effects of the budget cuts everywhere which is so very sad. We have been camping in the national parks for decades & our hope is that the funding is restored so future generations can experience these American treasures /beauty in the future!

Thank you for all you do to make our camping & outdoors experiences better!
