A larger campground with a smaller feel

Staying in site 1, downsides would be its right at the entrance, however we do have a small pebbled creek running behind our site. The creek runs along the backside of most sites at this campground and leads into a large swimming hole in the back corner. The hole has a few large rocks that can be jumped off of and you can also bring your own or purchase a tube to float down the mini rapids. Camp store is very well equipped and staff is friendly. Close to lots of Gatlinburg fun. Large trees in each site and throughout grounds. WiFi is OK, cell service is OK, not great. We’ve certainly been places where these are worse. Trout fishing abounds with the river being restocked every other week. Charcoal grill and fire pit and nice picnic table on each site. Bathhouses are very clean and have individual rooms with toilets and showered.

Easy to get to coming from I-40 as long as you follow the directions on their website and not GPS.

We’re loving our time at Greenbrier!

A little slice of heaven on the parkway

Spacious sites and large trees make this a stand out for our group. Several loops in this midsized campground. Highlights were fishing in the pond, biking through the campground and relaxing by the campfire. There is an arcade/game room by the camp store however at a $1/game for most games the fun was quickly ended. Stayed here twice. Once in the fall and once in summer. I preferred the fall for the cool crisp nights.

Quiet and Peace in Pisgah National Forest

A small campground with an updated basic playground set for the kids. Nice lawn courtyard for games. Beautiful level sites backed right up to Buck Creek where we enjoyed catching trout straight from our campsite. Located near many great hikes and river access. My Mitchell is about 60 minutes away on a beautiful drive. If you like peaceful and quiet campgrounds this is the place for you!

Wonderful campground for Family

I cannot say enough good things about James Island County Park! Bicycle trails right in the campground, wonderful playgrounds, rock wall Climbing (which we missed out on but will do next time), 15 min to local beach accesses. Quiet. Peaceful area where we all relaxed It was a great start to our camping season this Easter! Staff was super friendly as well.

Quiet setting beside of a beautiful trout stream

We have tent camped here many times and it is always a great time.
Nothing beats falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the creek. Small playground isn’t much to look at but my kids (10 and under) always use the heck out of it. They love riding their bikes along the gravel road and grassy hillside. If you’re tent camping the best spot is the far end, I believe number one and two. So secluded and private.
There’s a small beach area that you get kids can use as access to swim and rock throwing.
This campground is only a few miles from Stone Mountain state park. Lots of great hiking. In the summer you have to check out Widows Creek. Sliding rocks and waterfalls and a swimming hole only .2 miles off the road.

We love camping at this clean, simple campground.
