Pets

Dogs are only allowed on two short walking paths—the Gatlinburg Trail and the Oconaluftee River Trail. Pets are not allowed on any other park trails.
Quiet Hours
Quiet hours are in effect from 10 pm to 6 am.

Generator use is prohibited from 8 pm to 8 am.

During quiet hours, noise-producing equipment should be turned off and entry to the campground is limited to registered campers. Unreasonable noise, such as operating a generator for more than an hour at a time, is prohibited at any time.
