Largest campground in the Smokies

One of my favorite National Parks. Cool ghost town nearby worth a trip (not quite like the ghost towns out west). This is a decent campground choice, though it's the most crowded. Nice clean facilities and pretty standard amenities you'd expect from the National Park Service. Tons of shade and green. Most sites are not too private (again, like you'd expect). Make reservations far in advance!! Visit in spring for flowers (mountain laurel and rhododendrons are beyond words) and in fall for leaf peeping, avoiding the crowded summer season. The 10 accessible sites are very nice.
