Best RV Parks & Resorts near Maryville, TN

Little River Campground & RV Resort offers 104 sites with water, electric, sewer, and cable connections, operating year-round with both 30-amp and 50-amp service.

Southlake RV Park in Knoxville provides big-rig friendly spaces with electric, water, and sewer hookups. Honeysuckle Meadows RV Resort, located near Wears Valley, maintains gravel sites with full hookups and mountain views from lower sites.

Many RV parks in the region require advance reservations, particularly during fall foliage season when Great Smoky Mountains National Park visitation peaks. Cell service varies by location, with Verizon generally providing reliable coverage in most parks. Propane fill-ups are available at nearby towns like Alcoa, where Tractor Supply offers this service. Navigation to some mountain parks involves narrow roads with elevation changes. According to one camper, "Up the Creek RV Camp is a great little RV camp just down the way from bustling Pigeon Forge. The sites are decently sized, with picnic tables, fire rings and cement pads for basic sites." Most parks maintain dump stations, though some premium sites offer direct sewer connections at each site.

    Little River Campground & RV Resort

    Such a gem!

    Husband and I wanted to get away and found this campground- it is such a gem! You can't see it well from the road, but there is a huge sign out by the road. Trust it! You're in the right place. You drive across a small bridge across the Little River when you get to the campground, but it can handle big rigs. We saw many massive Class A campers while we were here for 6 nights. We pull a 30 ft travel trailer and used a pull through site- very large spot as far as rv sites go. They have back in spots for campers and tents literally on the bank of the river and you're allowed to swim, play, tube, etc in the river at your own risk. Camp store has firewood and a few essentials, but they don't sell propane. We got ours filled at the Tractor Supply in Alcoa, TN nearby. They had crafts and hayrides while we were here. Wifi is free but not great. Verizon cell service was good enough at 3 bars the whole time. No on-site laundry services, so we had to go into town to use laundromat (nearby town of Townsend is adorable but no laundromat). The grounds offer tent, cabin, and rv sites with various levels of electric, water, cable and sewer access. Our site had 30amp, water, sewer and cable. Nice and level site, large fire pit, sturdy plastic and metal picnic table and large beautiful mature trees. The bathhouse is seriously impressive and is, by far, the nicest campground bathhouse I've ever used! One of my favorite features was random and I never knew I was missing it in my life until now.. the bathrooms have strong AC pumping right into each bathroom, making everything nice and cool when you come in from the hot campsite.. wonderful! Good view of the mountains in the distance and minutes away from Great Smoky Mountain National Park entrance. This is a wonderful find!

    Cades Cove Campground

    Quite, beautiful, weekend traffic

    This is one of the quietest campgrounds I’ve stayed at. Sites are nestled in the woods in a cove in the Smokies. No cell service. No internet. No cable tv. Just peace and quiet! This is a national park campgrounds, so no water, electric or hookups. There is a dump station and modern bathrooms. Cold water showers. There is a camp store with basics. There is a lot of traffic especially on weekends with visitors driving the scenic Cades Cove Loop Road.

    Townsend-Great Smokies KOA

    Right outside of Great Smoky Mountain National Park

    Amazingly clean campgrounds 10 minutes from the entrance of the National Park and 20 minutes from the Visitor's Center.

    You have a choice of "rustic" tent sites, tent sites with water/electric/cable hook-ups, RV, or Cabins. All sites are pet-friendly including cabins. All camp sites include fire pit and picnic table.

    Lots of amenities are included in your stay. 2 bathroom areas, 1 shower area, pool, wi-fi, etc.

    There's a general store in front of the campgrounds with gas station and small cafe attached. The general store will even deliver your purchased firewood to your site.

    This Koa is near a lot recreational places and some restaurants. Also near towns like Gatlinburg, Pidgeon Forge and Knoxville.

    A nice vacation spot.

    Indian Creek Campground

    Excellent Campground

    Indian Creek Campground in Cherokee, NC is a hidden gem. Nice hosts, clean facilities in the woods. We have a 25 ft pull behind camper and sites are big enough for slide-outs. Picknick table and campfire ring was on site. We had a 30 amp full hook-up site. Campground has tent sites, RV sites, cabins, clean bathhouse and is dog friendly.

    Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg KOA Campground

    Glamping in Pigeon Forge

    This is not exactly the camping in the woods without hookups atmosphere. This is more of a every want/need met glamping RV Resort. And it’s awesome!

    The RV sites are large and level, full hookup. There are gorgeous cabins that look more like tiny homes, and the atmosphere at this park is a great way to retreat. 100 ft max for RVs.

    Very kid friendly, pet friendly (Kamp K9), lots in the area to go do and see. Pools, hot tub, kitchen, firewood for sale, fishing access, snack bar, cable tv, and WiFi.

    The staff here is awesome, very helpful and knowledgeable. The park is very clean and well kept.

    Cellular service for TMobile was not very strong but AT&T provided plenty for streaming and working.

    Melton Hill Dam Campground — Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA)

    Beautiful and peaceful

    The campsite sits right beside the Tennessee river. There are 9 full hookup sites and many of the rest have power and water. Large river swimming area. Most sites are level with concrete tables, fire pits and grills. Bathrooms are clean and adequate. Bathrooms in the day use area are less so. Store is small with snacks, ice, drinks and ice cream. Staff very nice and RV’ers themselves. Family friendly. Pull through dump site. Love Truck Stop at entrance to I-40. $ rate and honors America Pass.

    Anchor Down RV Resort

    Gorgeous

    The Amenities - Bath House, restrooms and laundry are the finest I have ever encountered. Shower areas are large enough for families with young ones to be together with wet, dry, sink and commode area all in one room - some shower heads are adjustable for height and become hand held. Cleanliness was amazing. All campsites had concrete pad, fire pit or gorgeous fireplace, metal picnic table and they deliver a bucket of firewood for $5. Was surprised the only bug we encountered were flies - not one mosquito. Pet friendly - pick up stations and off leash area with activities for active breeds.


Guide to Maryville

Camping near Maryville, Tennessee is readily accessible with several options within 30 miles of the town center. The foothills region sits at elevations between 900-1,500 feet, creating moderate temperatures year-round with particularly popular camping seasons in spring and fall. Summer humidity levels typically reach 70-80% with afternoon thunderstorms common from June through August.

What to do

Fishing opportunities: Little River Campground offers direct access to the Little River where campers can fish, swim, and tube. "You can't see it well from the road, but there is a huge sign out by the road. Trust it! You're in the right place. You drive across a small bridge across the Little River when you get to the campground," notes one visitor at Little River Campground & RV Resort.

Mountain hiking access: Multiple RV parks serve as base camps for exploring nearby trails. A visitor at Southlake RV Park states, "We stayed one night as a halfway point on the way up and then again on the way back. It seems they have a lot to offer, though we just used the area as a place to sleep."

Water recreation: Douglas Lake access is available at some campgrounds, providing swimming and boating options. "The lake swimming area is fun, and the pool was great," explains one camper at Anchor Down RV Resort, adding "Good view of the mountains in the distance and minutes away from Great Smoky Mountain National Park entrance."

What campers like

Creek and riverside spots: Many campers value water-adjacent sites. At Up the Creek RV Camp, one visitor notes, "There are no tent pads or bath houses, it is truly an RV campground. There is a small dog park, two creeks (wadable) and lots of peace and quiet."

Quiet locations: Campgrounds off main roads provide peaceful experiences despite proximity to attractions. "This is seriously the quietest campground I've ever been to. I wouldn't bring children to it (there's nothing for them to do there, anyway) but it's a very relaxing 'adult' campground," mentions a camper at Up the Creek RV Camp.

Natural settings: Tree coverage and natural features enhance camping experiences. "We arrived late because of a blowout, so they left us a map and instructions at the front door of the office. The campground was clean, there was plenty of room, the sites were level, the hookups worked like they were supposed to," shares a visitor about Little River Campground.

What you should know

Seasonal availability: Some rv parks near Maryville operate seasonally. A camper at Creekside RV Park notes, "We've been to Creekside probably 8-10 times in my life. The facility is not what it used to be, the pool is cracked and half the arcade machines are down, but the couple running it still send Christmas cards every year."

Site leveling challenges: Some campgrounds have uneven terrain. At Honeysuckle Meadows RV Resort, a visitor observes, "Sites here are very unlevel, but where your RV/camper and under awning is pretty level. The rest of the site falls away."

Road noise considerations: Certain sites may experience road noise. One camper noted, "The spots along the fence line are HORRIBLE! The road noise is awful and there's construction on the other side of the road that begins in the early morning and lasts till late afternoon."

Tips for camping with families

Pool amenities: Multiple Maryville area RV parks feature pools. At River Plantation RV Resort, a visitor shares, "Had a blast here! They have so much for the kids to do, full court basketball, tennis courts, battle ball, arcade room, and pool."

Kid-friendly activities: Some campgrounds offer specialized recreation. "They had crafts and hayrides while we were here. Wifi is free but not great. Verizon cell service was good enough at 3 bars the whole time," explains a visitor at Little River Campground.

Space between sites: Family groups often prefer roomier camping spots. "Sites were beautiful with a wonderful river view, but be aware that the direct river bank is considered common area including day use so it had a lot of traffic while we were there," warns one camper.

Tips from RVers

Leveling requirements: Bring leveling blocks for certain campgrounds. A visitor at Pigeon Forge Landing RV Resort states, "The lot itself is so easy to connect to electric, waste, and water."

Cell service variations: Service levels differ across the region. "I have a dual LTE router that I was only getting ATT 3G signal with normal antennas but once I connected the exterior antenna I had been waiting to install I got 4 bars ATT LTE (105 dbM) so I can pull a ratty 30Mbps down and 15Mbps up," reports one camper.

Site selection strategy: Consider requesting specific site types. "We paid about $50/night with tax for a full hook-up site," notes a visitor at Honeysuckle Meadows RV resort, adding "There are no bathhouses and no tent sites."
