Gateway to the Smokies RV Park & Campground - Tennessee

Great location and the staff was friendly but that’s the pros. The Con is simple, I think politics can waiver your experience easily and us being a minority family camping there gave an unwanted vibe from other campers. Never noticed this in other states and sites but you just ignore it and have a great experience. Non locals were very friendly and spoke to us. People need to remember we are all the same, look the same, eat the same, speak the same… we just come in different shades and experiences. Camping is a great way to learn and meet a new neighbors even ones you might not have a chance to sit at a fire pit and talk to.

This is a great base camp to explore Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and the Smokies. Just a little off the main strip so its still quiet but accessible. Excellent amenities including pool and play area for kids. My only complaint is that the lots are a bit small.

Red haired lady in the office, started complaining about my fiancé and myself. Saying are campsite is dirty. Never was, trash is in garbage bags which are taken to dumpster at night. Don’t stay here. Rude an will over charge you for a tent site with no electricity and no water.

Love it. Very friendly. A quiet campground tucked in to the craziness of PF and GB

No complaints regarding the campground...there was one child in particular when we stayed that obviously wasn’t watched by his parents. That’s not the campgrounds fault. It was a big tight pulling into our site and thank God no one was at the site next to us because there was absolutely no where for them to park without parking on our site.

Great staff, very friendly and helpful. Clean, private bathrooms with showers although I prefer a little bigger shower and a little warmer water. Sites are nice and level with concrete pads. I do wish they were a little more spread out. The location is perfect being in between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. I would definitely recommend this place and would visit again.

Very nice spacious, level paved spots. We paid extra to get the upgraded spot which included a picnic table, grill, and fire pit. The pool was closed, but it was storming the majority of our trip.

We stayed for a few nights between Christmas and New Years, and it was great! The bath house was clean (and warm!) it was cold, so we didn’t get to use the playground, but the kids really wanted to use it! Would stay here again.

Great location! Also I was very impressed by how nice the bathrooms are! Would recommend.

We really enjoyed a few nights in the fall and used this rv park as a base for driving and visiting the National Park!!

Highs- Very friendly ( in the South we say “neighborly”) folks in the office, playground for the little ones, crystal clear swimming pool as well as kiddie pool, basketball court, laundry facility, clean bath and showers, vending machines and camp store with just about anything you would need including handmade soap in case you forgot yours. Newly cemented sites that require little to no leveling, firewood, fire starters, parts for your rig, full hookups with cable, fire ring and grill, quiet and peaceful but just 1 mile from the parkway. Lows- No trash can at your site. Don’t let a little thing like no trash can at your driveway keep you from enjoying this RV Park. Highly recommended. Just go already!
