Me, wife, 19 year old daughter and her best friend stayed at Elkmont May 1st through the 5th, primitive tent camping. Quiet, bathrooms are clean, small state run upply store on sight. Historically significant due to resort that used to be there, with ruins to see, and was a logging community returned to nature when S.M.N.P. was formed. Close proximity to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Hiking trails, waterfalls, and Cades Cove. Well run and staffed camp. Lots of spaces available for RV or tents. Cheap. Saw one very young bear less than a mile from camp. Only gripe, it has lighted bathrooms with power, the park could have hot showers, there are no showers.
