This is a really large and very nice campground near Franklin, NC that caters to both RV and tent campers. They have a ton of sites and several bathroom facilities. Most of the sites have a gravel area for parking and grassy space for a tent. They each have a picnic table and fire pit as well. This…

There are two great things about this campsite. It’s free, and it is close to great views of the mountains near the Blue Ridge Parkway. Located off of Highway 215, you do hear road noise, but that is not too much of a problem. During the day, you get a lot of day use hikers since the largest…

This is a great little RV and tent campground located near High Falls. The campground itself is alongside Lake Glenville and provides easy access for putting in boats, fishing, or swimming. It is also not far from the wonderful beach on the lake where everyone goes to picnic. The campground itself…

I have stayed at this campground before in another year, another place, and in another season. It was great then, but it was not during peak season. This time I stayed in July, and it was crowded with people. My site was in the middle of several other sites, so there was very little privacy. I…

Located beside the Tuckaseegee River, this is a great family campground if you don’t require a swimming pool or recreation activities offered by some of the larger franchise campgrounds. It does have swimming and fishing opportunities and a great family atmosphere. There are several places along…

This is a very nice and well-maintained RV park off of the main highway. It is a great option if you are looking for somewhere to base your adventure from but I wouldn't recommend it if you are like me and looking for a more tent camping focused site. Overall, it is in a great area and could be a…

I have never stayed a more kid friendly campground than this one. There are craft activities for children and even a“mining” experience. The children’s recreation building is adjacent to restrooms, the arcade, and a playground. The recreation director was working with some children when I visited…

This is a beautiful campground right outside of Franklin that also offers many other activities and rentals. The land where the camping is located is planted full of flowers and has such a magical feel. The campground is also located right on the Little Tennessee River and provides incredibly easy…

This is a beautiful secluded site just off of Highway 64/74 not too far from the Tennessee border. The campground is very well kept and has wonderful amenities for both RV and tent campers. I was very impressed with the gorgeous grassy areas along the creek providing a private space for tent…

This is a very cute RV campground hidden away right off Main Street in downtown Franklin. I was very impressed at how private and secluded the space felt even being so close to the shops. The campground feels very welcoming and is kept in beautiful shape. They provide all the amenities you would…

This place is very beautiful lots to do very clean and the staff very friendly recommend to anyone

A rating for this campground can be ambiguous. For tent campers, I would give it two stars. For RVs and travel trailers, I would give it at least four stars. With that said, it gets three stars, but with considerations of how you are camping. 

Many of the sites have concrete pads, so there is…

I came across this campground recently while on an early morning bike ride through the area. I had to stop and explore because of how beautiful the setup was and how great the location is. The campsite is right along the Little Tennessee River and has different kinds of sites depending on the type…

To get to this camping area, you have to travel down a forest road with a gravel bed. It is in a great spot, other than being beside the road. There are two fire pits and both places are beside the creek. Since it is primitive camping, there are no facilities, but you get the benefit of being away…

This was my third time at Littlejohn Campground, and it was during the middle of the week. There wasn’t a lot of activity except for the noise from the road. If you are looking for activities, drive a few miles into Cherokee. There are so many things to do there—Harrah’s Casino, UNTO THESE HILLS…
