Best RV Parks & Resorts near Hampton, TN

RV parks near Hampton provide electric, sewer, and water hookups across multiple facilities. Grandview Ranch RV Park in Unicoi accommodates big rigs with 50-amp electrical connections and full hookups across level sites. A visitor commented, "Spot was level with full hookups. WiFi, beautiful Mountain Views to enjoy." Lakeview RV Resort in Bluff City supports both 30-amp and 50-amp service with sewer connections, sanitary dump stations, and spacious sites for larger rigs. Safe Haven Farm RV Camping offers electric hookups with seven designated sites, while Butler TN RV features a single full hookup site with both 30-amp and 50-amp options in a private setting.

Mountain terrain affects campground access throughout the region. Several parks require navigation along narrow country roads with elevation changes that may challenge larger motorhomes. Most RV campgrounds remain open year-round, though limited availability exists during peak fall foliage season when advance reservations become essential. One review noted, "Way up the road! It's a nice place once you get here on the narrow country road." While some parks maintain on-site propane service and camp stores, others offer minimal amenities. Most locations welcome pets but enforce leash requirements. Cell service varies significantly by location, with parks closer to Kingsport and Johnson City typically providing more reliable coverage than those in more remote mountain settings.

    Raccoon Holler Campground

    Perfect for Families

    Family-friendly campground with plenty of fun activities for kids. Playground, fishing pond, disc golf, recreation and game area, and ice cream trailer. Our site was nicely shaded and fairly level. Fire pit and picnic table at each site. There appears to be a lot of long-term residents but all sites were very well kept and the campground was very clean. The best part was the friendly staff!

    Crossville KOA

    One of the nicer KOAs - concrete pads available, private shower rooms.

    KOA I-40/Crossville, TN - We stayed one night in October, full hook ups, 50 amp, good wifi until the evening but our cell service was good. $59.87 per night, $53.88 with KOA discount. Nicely maintained park with level concrete sites in the front with grass, fire rings and picnic tables that were in excellent condition. Friendly, welcoming staff with a nice gift shop/store. Hand dipped ice cream is available along with freshly made pizza and wings if you don’t want to cook. It does sit right next to Highway 70 into Crossville and can be noisy but it didn’t bother us. Each bathroom is a private toilet and shower, very clean, nicely tiled and plenty of hot water. Small laundry, two washers and two dryers but there may have been additional laundry towards the back of the park. The park seems to be broken down into three sections, concrete pad pull throughs in the front, then the office area, then a second section of sites with gravel pads and these are closest to the bathrooms, then further out is another area with a pond or small lake for catch and release fishing. Well manicured property. Would definitely stay again and the ice cream was really good.

    Doe Valley Campground

    Clean, Peaceful, and Convenient

    5/21/23-6/22/23: We stayed a whole month ($500) to recuperate from our previous travels. Owner/manger, Brent Fowler, was a gracious and accommodating host. This is a new 110 acre campground which has only been open a few months (as of this writing). The grounds were well kept and new features are continually being added. There are full-hookups at each site (20/30/50A, water, sewer), high-speed WiFi, and 150 new trees have been planted around the perimeter. While there is presently no water at the dump station, there will be, but water can be used from nearby pull-through sites. Further, a bath-house with showers and laundry facilities are in the works. Mountain City is under 5 miles away and proved to be very convenient. 

    Wildlife in the campground and surrounding area was abound with a variety of birds wakening us each morning, and deer that came into camp regularly. Red winged black birds, swallows, and Cardinals are all abundant and quite vociferous. This new campground has the most important quality down pat: Friendly and supportive ownership! We plan to return next year and will likely stay much longer.

    Mountain River Family Campground

    Home away from Home

    We have been staying at Mtn River for about 3 years now and it’s become ‘home away from home’. You have your choice of river or mountainside sites. We prefer the river sites personally for the views & fishing. 

    The campground owners are fantastic people who’ve become friends. They live on site and take great pride in the property. The property is always impeccable. They are always working. Such a gorgeous place!! The pond is in the center of the property- yes you can fish(catch& release). 

    Areas setup with hammocks, corn hole, seating, etc. The new playground has been a big hit! Oh, and there’s also a dog park area. 

    The bathhouses are super clean and have air conditioning. The laundry room is brand new with great units and also A/C. 

    They incorporated additional activities this year over at the pavilion which our family has loved! Bingo, tie-dye t-shirts, food trucks, live music, and more! Our grandson loves to join us. Lots of kids and a great area for them to all play. 

    Tubing the river is always a fun treat! You can bring your own tubes or rent from the campground. 

    The camp store has expanded and features a mix of items- t-shirts, hats, hoodies, koozies, and more. As well as local jams, rubs, and other treats. They’re in the process of building a new office/camp store so we’re excited to see this complete. 

    We have a 40’ fifth wheel. No problems every getting in. They accommodate all size rigs. All sites have a concrete pad, fire pit and very nice large picnic table. Sites are spacious and do not feel cramped like we've experienced at other campgrounds. 

    Wi-Fi is generally pretty good. We’ve been able to work remote on some of our trips. We even had phone service our last trip(AT&T)! 

    Lots to do in the area! Hiking, Linville Winery(yum!), Linville Caverns, Grandfather Mtn and so many other great places. The office staff can certainly provide plenty of recommendations, too. 

    There are 2 grocery stores in town about 15min away. There’s also a local dollar store about 5min away. 

    We cannot say enough good things about MRFC. We’ve met some great campers there who we now call friends. We truly love this place and already have bookings for next year!

    Lake Haven Family Campground

    Stayed for the Location, Left because of the Owners

    As a retired Air Force couple with over five years of experience as full-time RVers, we have stayed at countless campgrounds across the country. We selected Lake Haven for an extended stay this past July while searching for a permanent home in the Lake Watauga area, drawn by its advertisement for year-round availability. The location is excellent, and our site was level with full hookups, a nice picnic table, and a fire pit. Maneuvering into the spot was also straightforward, despite some large boulders. Two concerns: no owners or host(s) onsite and the entrance/exits can be quite dangerous- each located on a curve. We really wanted to love this campground, but the positive aspects were completely overshadowed by the unprofessional behavior of the owners. The tone was set when we received a campground-wide text message asking“Please, for our sake, when away from your camper, set your AC temp to something reasonable(75 is what I use at my house when not home), to help us save on electricity”. While we understand the concern for costs, the request felt invasive. Then it got personal. In the first week of August, our daughter and her family were renting the on-site(3 bed/3 bath) Airbnb, and after she inquired about more toilet paper, one of the owners came to our RV site to confront us about it. We were shocked that a necessity for a rental guest was treated as a major issue, and the confrontational approach was completely uncalled for and made us feel extremely uncomfortable. To make matters worse, we later learned from other campers that the owners had been gossiping about our family and our stay. This was a major violation of our privacy and fostered a deeply unwelcoming atmosphere. While the physical campground has potential, we cannot recommend it. Feeling safe and respected is essential when you are camping, and due to the owners’ intrusive and unprofessional behavior, we decided to seek out another campground.

    Hickory Ridge Campground — Grayson Highlands State Park

    Small campground in a beautiful state park

    General: Smallish campground (< 70 sites in two loops) with a mixture of water/electric and tent sites with no hookups, and also four yurts.

    Site Quality: Some were back-in and some were pull-through. Gravel pads. Not a lot of separation between the sites. Some were more level than others but not a problem to make it work for us. 

    Bathhouse: Heated! Clean. One shower in the bathroom plus additional shower rooms. Best place in the campground to catch a fleeting cell signal so it was not unusual to see people in the bathroom on their phones! 

    Activities/Amenites: Hiking! Close to the AT. Unfortunately, the best trail IMO was the Cabin Creek Trail (it was also awarded one of the best 25 trails in the US) but it is not accessible directly from the campground. There is also a small country store, but it was not open when we were there. There is a small museum at the Visitor Center and well worth a trip there. There is also a dump station. 

    There was an unseasonable cold snap when we were there in October (temps got down to mid-20s with wind chill in the teens) so even though we had planned on two nights there, once we hiked the Cabin Creek and Rhododendron trails, we decided to go to a lower elevation and warm up!

    Raccoon Holler Campground

    Nice Campground / Great Location

    I picked this campground because it was very close to Blue Ridge Parkway. My plan was to ride my motorcycle through this beautiful area of NC, but the rain didn't cooperate this trip. I camped in site 112. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. This was a last minute reservation and they had limited availability. The site is not very level and very tight for my 32 foot RV. The site had full hookups (water, sewer, 30 amp electric) that worked great. I walked most of the campground and there are some great sites. Most are wooded and reasonably spaced. Quite a few long term campers, but the rigs and sites were all very well kept. At $64 per night it is a little pricey, for site 112, but probably not for the campground and area as a whole. No grill, just a tire rim for campfires and a picnic table.

    Getting parked was a bit of a challenge to get things as level as possible and work around power stand and be able to get awning out to stay out of rain.

    I would camp here again and recommend others give it a try. Lots to do in this part of the NC mountains.

    Mama Gertie's Hideaway Campground

    Convenient place in the woods

    This campground was one of the cleanest campgrounds we've been to. It had the cleanest laundry room I've even seen at a campground and we are full timers so have been to many places. Washers seem new and large enough for a full load-$2 and dryer$1. The grounds are clean. There is a dog run area. 

    The customer service was very friendly and professional and a nice gentleman escorted us on a golf cart to our site. The roads are uphill and a little narrow, but nothing too difficult if you go slow. Our site was level so easy to pull up and set up smoothly. They have a fitness center, shower rooms, picnic tables and fire pit at every site.

    WIFI/ AT&T: Campground wifi was excellent and quick. We work remote and usually have to hotspot our phone for video calls, but didn't have to here because it worked so well. AT&T was 1 to 2 bars at our site, but it worked just fine for calls and never had an issue, including video calls and streaming.

    The pine trees help with a little privacy because you are tucked in pretty tight to one another. This is the only reason I'm not giving a 5 star.

    Good sam partners. Accessible to Asheville, Blue Ridge Parkway, and many other mountain towns for exploring.


Guide to Hampton

RV campgrounds near Hampton, Tennessee sit at elevations between 1,600-2,000 feet in the northeastern Appalachian foothills. Many facilities require navigation along winding mountain roads with 5-8% grades before reaching campsites. Winter temperatures typically drop to 20-30°F overnight from November through March, with several campgrounds maintaining year-round operations despite seasonal challenges.

What to do

Trout fishing access: Multiple campgrounds border stocked mountain streams with native and stocked trout. At Mountain Stream RV Park, one visitor noted, "Brody caught his first trout, it is a catch and release creek," while another guest enjoyed "sitting in the creek in my camp chair."

Hiking to waterfalls: The region offers multiple waterfall access points within 30-60 minutes of most campgrounds. A reviewer at Linville Falls Campground recommended, "We recommend the hike to Crabtree Falls!" while another visitor mentioned the "well marked trail's" leading to the falls.

Virginia Creeper Trail: This popular 34-mile rail-trail provides an accessible cycling route with shuttle services available. A camper at Laurel Creek RV Park appreciated the "easy access right to the shuttle companies for the Creeper Trail" and mentioned the campground's location "directly on the Creeper."

What campers like

Mountain creek soundscapes: The constant sound of running water provides natural white noise at streamside sites. A Mountain Stream RV Park guest shared, "The rushing stream was the perfect white noise for a restful night," while another mentioned, "The sound of the stream was so peaceful and relaxing."

Community gatherings: Some campgrounds organize regular social events to build community. One visitor at Mountain Stream RV Park mentioned, "Each Saturday evening, Kevin serves up his special home cooked bar-b-que under the shelter at no additional cost, and many campers bring sides to share."

Private dog areas: Several parks maintain dedicated pet spaces. A reviewer noted Mountain Stream RV Park "has a nice fenced in dog park, too (it even has a nice dog wash station!)" allowing pets to exercise off-leash safely within boundaries.

What you should know

Site spacing considerations: Many mountain campgrounds feature close quarters between sites. One Linville Falls Campground reviewer cautioned, "The spaces are close together and many of them are not shaded very well," while a Mountain Stream camper noted "the sites are very close together."

Cell service limitations: Coverage varies significantly throughout the region. A Mountain Stream visitor explained, "Cell service is almost non-existent, but you can use the wifi for calls if necessary," indicating the importance of alternative communication options.

Bathroom facilities vary: Some campgrounds prioritize bathroom upgrades while others maintain basic facilities. A Three Peaks RV Resort guest appreciated the "huge, private shower rooms (so clean!)" while Laurel Creek RV Park operates with "no bathrooms" according to a reviewer.

Tips for camping with families

Playground availability: Several campgrounds maintain dedicated play areas. Three Peaks RV Resort features "the kids' playground" according to one visitor, while Mountain Stream RV Park added "an updated basic playground set for the kids."

Central gathering spaces: Look for campgrounds with communal areas for family activities. Mountain Stream offers a "nice lawn courtyard for games" while Three Peaks will soon have "a nice swimming pool" according to a reviewer.

Nearby attractions: The region offers family-friendly activities beyond campgrounds. A Three Peaks visitor noted families can "take a mountain hike, go mining for your own gems (real gems!), drive the Blue Ridge Parkway, go tubing in the nearby Toe River."

Tips from RVers

Single-site options: Butler TN RV offers a unique private camping experience with "full hookups, including 30&50 amp electric, sewer, water and wireless WiFi" in a setting with "easy paved road access with gravel driveway."

Site leveling: Many mountain campgrounds require minimal leveling adjustments. A reviewer at Grandview Ranch RV Park appreciated that the "spot was level with full hookups" providing a hassle-free setup experience.

Seasonal access: While many campgrounds operate year-round, weather impacts accessibility. Mountain Stream RV Park operates from "April 1 to November 30," avoiding the most challenging winter weather periods when road conditions can become problematic.
