This place is small and welcoming. The family that owns the campground treats you like a member of their family. We stayed in a small cabin and had a problem with a light burning out twice, the owner showed up to take care of it for us, not a teenager, an actual adult! Outside our cabin was a nice front...

My family camps here several times a year. The non-scary Halloween weekends are not to be missed. This is a beautiful, clean, family friendly campground that I look forward to returning to for years to come. Carvers Orchard is a fun little side trip as well as a nice little hiking trail behind the campground. The Landrys make every camper... More

This was our first time staying at a Jellystone Park so we did not know what to expect. What we got was a family run campsite with activities out the whazoo and more amenities than I expected. The RV sites are gravel and close together. All of the sites are located next to one of the two streams that run... More

The campground was immaculate, extremely family oriented and by far the most friendly and helpful staff!!! We were so impressed by our first visit, can't wait to return! Tip: follow directions given by staff, do not follow GPS to get there! Believe me, they know best. Also, bath house was very chilly early in the mornings, be prepared:) very clean... More

We stayed five nights and had the best time. The staff is so friendly, great location, and plenty of things to do for kids, including basketball, playground, mini golf, horseshoes. Grounds beautifully kept. Hope to come back!!

I remembered staying at this park more than 30 years ago as a kid with my parents. Its located in the foothills of the smokies and there are sites that run next to a spring-fed creek. This campground has some of the cleanest restrooms and showers we have ever encountered as RVers. They also had a laundry room, store, swimming... More

Summary: About 10 miles outside of Gatlinburg, this campground is nicely shaded with the fabulous setting of a stream running past most campsites. All facilities are nicely updated, numerous activities, family oriented. The only drawback is that you do get a bit of noise from the highway, although traffic is relatively light. The good: These are fine campsites. Mature trees... More

This was my first camping trip and I must say this place is really clean. I stayed on the tent site for 4 days and 3 nights. The bathroom and shower area was kept really nice and was always cleaned around noon. The women's bathroom has 3 showers but only two were working so I had to wait for the... More

We have stayed at many campgrounds and this is my favorite. The site was backed up to a creek (most on the property are) and the kids found playing in the creek to be a fun time. The park was clean, the staff was friendly, the pool area was clean. The WIFI had a good signal (even in the tent... More

Everything about this place was pretty great. My kids will never forget it! I loved how it was out of Gatlinburg a bit as we did not want to partake in the tourist traps of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. We spent our days at Greenbriar and Elkmont, hiking, splashing, and rock hopping. Yogi's daily rounds were a highlight to my... More
