Each campsite should have a bear box. I was surprised when I arrived and did not have access to one. None of the EV chargers were working. As an owner of an EV who was excited at the opportunity to take it along on a camping trip, I was very disappointed to see the chargers at Big Meadows Wayside and Skyland covered with “out of service” notices.

We had a great time at the campground. The sites were very roomy and the staff was very nice. They helped us move to another site that accommodated our camper better. It’s a beautiful campground and a beautiful park, we hope to come back and explore it some more.

We love this campground and come back every year. It's great to have lots of trailheads nearby and the facilities are all in good shape. Some of the other campers at the campground forgot that quiet hours go until 6:00AM and were making lots of noise at 5:15AM, but that's how it goes sometimes with camping!

Clean, well maintained and Nice place to stay. Do not expect good internet connectivity. make use of internet at the lodge which is 2min drive away from campgrounds. There were tornado and thunderstorm warnings and severe weather during the time of our trip. So, Be prepared to face the nature! Enjoy !

Wonderful campground. We were in site F-202. The sites were well spaced out and our pull-thru was level. Lots of nice trails to hike. Dark Hollow Falls trail was especially nice - the waterfalls were amazing. The views from some of the trails (like behind the Lodge) were spectacular! We definitely hope to come back for another visit.

This site was not great for tents (very small flat or non gravel footprint to set up) and was shared the drive thru for the adjacent site (E175), where and RV was so we had to back in as to not block their exit. We were very close to the other campers. Not a good site unless you want both E175 and 174, then you’d have a huge area to yourself!

beautiful campground. Love the way the walk-in tent sites are separated into the woods. The abundance of birds was neat, hearing them sing constantly. Sites were well equipped with a large food box and wood for a first night fire. Our hikes were enjoyable, the drive through the park breathtaking. We are looking forward to returning.

Sorry to have had to cut our visit short to just one night due to trailer battery power issues. But, we've stayed before for longer and have always enjoyed our time. Really enjoyed seeing the tent sites fill up with various groups. Fun! We'll be back. Our favorite activity is hiking, of course. The snack bar seemed to have had a busy Memorial Day weekend as they were out of many things. At least that's what the computer touch screen told us.

A094 was a nice spot. Close to the bathrooms and water, surrounded by bushes on 3 sides which provided some privacy (my vehicle covered most of the 4th side) and a nice level area for tents.
