Several RV parks in the Knoxville area accommodate motorhome travelers with varying amenities. Southlake RV Park provides full hookup RV sites with 50-amp service, showers, and a dump station near Knoxville's Maryville Pike. Little River Campground & RV Resort in Townsend features 104 sites with both 30-amp and 50-amp electrical options, operating year-round with water, sewer, and electric hookups. Anchor Down RV Resort in Dandridge operates seasonally from March through December, offering big-rig friendly sites with full hookups and waterfront access. Creekside RV Park in Pigeon Forge maintains 108 RV sites with both 30-amp and 50-amp service from April through November. "Sites are not well developed with power and sewer in odd places. Monthly rentals and not well kept," noted one camper about Southlake RV Park.
Between Knoxville and the Great Smoky Mountains, most RV parks require advance reservations during peak seasons. Many campgrounds feature gravel pads with varying degrees of levelness, particularly at Melton Hill Dam Campground where one visitor mentioned, "The parking area is an asphalt slab and many have a slant to them and will require leveling." Cell service quality varies significantly throughout the region, with reviewers noting "Verizon service shotty with poor WIFI" at Whispering River Resort. Navigation to some parks involves narrow roads with significant elevation changes, particularly those closer to mountain areas. Most parks welcome pets but have restrictions on breed types and numbers. Dump stations are available at most locations, though placement and approach angles can create drainage challenges at some sites.
"Very nice facilities. We were just here for an overnight between Virginia Beach and New Orleans. Had spot C1, which is directly across from the restrooms/showers. Partial shade, nice little deck."
"We only stayed one night, but will return to take advantage of the prime lake front tent spots! On the map it shows individual sites, but it’s more of a disbursed area."
from $28 - $38 / night
"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."
"Neighbors will be close but pull through was easy. Peaceful “little river” and lots of shade. Great location for day tripping to several great hikes in the Smokies."
from $30 - $160 / night
"The sites are decently sized, with picnic tables, fire rings and cement pads for basic sites, and tables and chairs with larger fire pits at premium sites."
"Nice sized camping spots, concrete pads with picnic tables and fire pit, some have raised fire pits. Gravel parking spots and blacktop roads."
"The Amenities - Bath House, restrooms and laundry are the finest I have ever encountered."

from $49 - $139 / night
"Great Mountain top, RV getaway, water and electric hookup, quiet and pet friendly. Amazing views of the morning sunrise over the mountain tops."

"Gravel sites with a concrete pad for picnic table. Many sites are narrow, but accommodating and plenty to space between sites. Sites on the back section near creek bed are beautiful. Full hook ups."
"Clean showers and restrooms. Very quiet. A little tight, but nice picnic tables and cement slab patios. Would come again."
from $55 - $75 / night
"Parksville Lake RV Campground is an absolute gem! I had a fantastic stay here. The campground is beautifully maintained, and the sites are nice, spacious, and wonderfully shaded by the trees."
"So peaceful. The campground hosts were phenomenal!!! They made sure all campers had everything they need. They also make sure people are following the rules!!"

"Overnite is j1 mile off I-75 and very quiet at night. Full hookups and our campsite was very level. "
"We still had full hookups and they were so nice about everything. This park is very conveniently located North of Chattanooga and South of Knoxville."
"The sites are level and the people super friendly. The pool and church services were an added bonus. With it being 4th of July the owners hosted a cook out with some awesome food."
"It was close to where we wanted to be and got us out of traffic quickly. As an added bonus it was also near a donut shop that we had a gift card for. It was convenient, clean and compact."
from $37 / night
LegendBeautiful campground with all the amenities. If you like rustic in the woods this is not your place, but they advertise what they are. Top dollar for top service and gorgeous sites. All the frills if that’s what you want. We love both. Lots of grass for dogs and good dog parks if that’s important.
TravelerNext door to trolley depot, and Old Mill heritage. Walking path along river. Walking distance to shops. Nice camping spots, clean showers and bathrooms. Lots of kids amenities, pool open most of the time.
GuideI'm excited about visiting this place and being secluded by all the greenery and enjoying the sound of silence… I heard it was a wonderful place to visit and stay!
TravelerWe have stayed here several times over the years. It's nothing fancy but it is on the creek, sites are level and spaced fairly good. Kids have a pretty good play area and like to feed the goats. Love the tubing access!
TravelerVisited in October of 2025 to go to Dollywood. Close to everything yet feels private. VERY well maintained and super friendly hosts. Nighttime activities like bingo, games for kids, large tv area, loved the creek. Would stay there again.
TravelerSuper clean park, friendly hosts that had planned activities for evenings, close to most everything but yet felt out of the hub. would stay again
TravelerShowers give you maybe 20 seconds of warm ish water. The. Pretty much tap temps. Amazingly it’s still completely fogs up the bathhouse mirrors due to the inadequate exhaust. That may. Be due to the temp, exhaust, and venting strings are easily manipulated by one of the million children in the “Resort”. It’s not a resort in any way. It’s a campground that has really nice pads. Marginal hookups. Lots and lots and lots of bears. Big BIG bears. I’m a bear hunter. There isn’t one I’ve seen that isn’t a legit Pope and Young. The toilets are clean. The floor and showers are gross. The lazy river is cold. Hot tube warm. If you are a camper spending $250 a night and a resort fee per person, you still don’t get given a towel to use the pool. Front desk actually said the towels were NOT for campers but for “ hotel resort” guest. So why am I paying the fee? We stayed here because it was a Margaretaville property. There are many other nicer and cheaper options in town. It’s expensive. The bar car does not exist. There is wood delivery. But it’s a bundle of twigs for $10. It is dry. The food is Sysco crap and the inside bars are just part of the kids arcade or cafeteria. Live music was super strange. The guy literally was standing in the doorway to the cafeteria bar. Don’t waste your money here. If you do anyway, plan on bears digging thru your stuff every night. Kids? Dogs? And Bears……not good.
LegendWe took US-321 into the back side of Gatlinburg to avoid the downtown craziness. RV Life GPS guided us directly to Twin Creek RV Resort, while Waze suggested a few shortcuts that we wisely passed on. The campground (CG) entrance was a little tight and downhill, but we had no trouble getting to the office for check-in. One of the very friendly and helpful staff members escorted us to back-in site 14, where backing in was easy. We wanted to lower our toy hauler patio to enjoy the creek running behind the sites, and the staff kindly allowed us to park our F-450 in site 38 across the road to give us more room. Our site had a nice patio area with a long bench, picnic table, and nearby fire pit. CG Wi-Fi was so-so at 6.17 Mbps download. Verizon had 2 bars and T-Mobile had 3 bars, while our T-Mobile Home Internet delivered a respectable 106 Mbps download. There was considerable road noise from US-321, especially during daylight hours, although evenings were noticeably quieter. The fenced dog park was small, but there was plenty of room around the CG to walk our pup. Overall, we enjoyed our creekside site, the helpful staff, and the convenient location away from the busiest part of Gatlinburg.
TravelerBeautiful spot in the smoky mountains. State park style amenities, no showers. No hookups. Very busy very open campground. Nice that some trails are walking distance from campground. I would not camp here again as I prefer more separation and privacy. No cell service. STARLINK is usable but obstructed with tree canopy
