| Great campground, well layed out | |
Huge national park campground but subdivided well so you don't really feel like you in a crowd. Probably the best feature is the trails accessed right from the grounds with many options for different lengths and difficulty of hike.We stayed at the "walk in sites", so called because the parking is 50 or so feet from the site. Restrooms with running water and flush toilets. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit. There is a small well stocked store. No showers. A shuttle runs from Gatlinburg so possible to visit without a car.
We stayed here in a Tent. | | Comments (0) |
