It was nice, but kind of crowded
For a first outing with our new camping gear, our weekend at Raccoon Mountain campground was a great success. However, the terrain of the property makes it so all the campsites are in relatively close quarters, and with RV parking taking up most of the property, the primitive site experience just wasn’t as nice and relaxing as we had hoped for. Plus, the road going through the primitive area was gravel and steep, so it can be difficult to drive on if you don’t have 4-wheel drive. The staff was very nice, though, and they brought firewood directly to your site if purchased. The on-site bathroom facilities, at least on the men’s side was pretty dirty, and could have used more regular servicing throughout the day, considering the number of people using it. I’m far from discouraged about this campsite, but I’m not exactly wowed either. I’d return to see if I would have a different experience!
