There was a total fire ban, but not much you could do about that. I think coin showers are so outdated. Would like to see one that at least takes cards. You'd get a lot more people using them. Plus $6 for 10 minutes is kind of steep. Otherwise a great campsite!

Nice campsite with a creek through it. Clean bathrooms. Very nice all around.

We love staying at this campground due to its location near the visitor center. Most sites are level enough for our Sprinter van. Five dollars for a shower seems fair, but the water was tepid. Staff was friendly and helpful, but we were disappointed that the projector was broken, so no film at the visitors center. Big Meadows is an interesting place and we will continue camping there!

Tent area is not quite level and rocky but the site itself has nice views of the Appalachian trail and is relatively private, being at the edge of the campground.

Nice site for tenting with large level spaces. Bear box is a bit unwieldy to lock.

Great facilities, nice campground. Showers are $5 in quarters for 10 minutes.

Beautiful scenery and amazing access to trails! My partner and I had a wonderful time camping here until it was night time. Rangers are constantly circling the campground with their bright headlights on which literally lit up my entire tent. It was very annoying and went on for hours throughout the night making it very hard to sleep. Would also be a good idea to let people know to bring cash since it is 5 dollars for a 10 minute shower. Other than this amazing access to trails.
