Well maintained, excellent facilities, and still natural.
The walk-in sites are pretty calm, but you people are definitely still gabbing into quiet hours: don't expect total silence.

I loved the campgrounds at Big Meadows. There are many nearby trails, but most important, the AT is just off the E loop. I also love the nicely paved paths that connect all the loops and facilities within the campgrounds. The paved trail that goes to the Wayside is the bonus. I do think showers are a little overpriced at $5/10 min. I wish there was a $2.50 option for 5 min time. I don't need 10 min to shower.

The park ranger was incredibly helpful when we had to change our reservation last minute. The campground was great and we really enjoyed our time there.

Wonderful campsite-recently resurfaced, large, ample space for our rig and an extra car. Toilets in our loop (F) were good and clean. The bath house was centrally located, but the price was a little steep ($5 for 10 minutes). The lodge at Big Meadows was great, and the only place where we had phone reception (also WIFI).

Very nice space, slight slope and tree roots so keep that in mind if you’re coming in after dark. Coin operated showers, $5 for 10 minutes. Nice camp store!

Campground is good but the loops...who ever designed it back then!?
With that said more signs(arrows), since loops are crossing over each others.
