General Stuff
The campground stands in a valley on the edge of the Smokey Mountains National Park. It is quite large and the bulk of the camp sites are in an open area and reasonably close to one another. The pads are made from crushed gravel and are all level, most having full service hookups. There's an outdoor pool, indoor games area and even a hot pizza outlet as part of the general amenities. The bath house is fully equipped with individual bathrooms and all was very clean. The campground also had an extensive store that sold camping goods and groceries. The nearest town is Walland but a run back towards Knoxville is required for large grocery stores and restaurants. The campground is ideally situated for Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.

Opinion
We stayed here to be close to a relative who lives in Knoxville. We were running a bit late and called ahead to let the owners know as the office was going to be closed and when we arrived we were met by a guy in a golf cart who showed us to our site. The paperwork had been completed and all I had to do was go in and pay the next day. The pool stayed open until 9.30 so the kids were happy. The site wasn't as busy as I'd expected so it mean that the place felt very relaxed. I'd heard that the close proximity of a busy road meant that it could get noisy at night but that certainly wasn't our experience. The bath house was best that we'd used before or since our visit; it was excellent. A combination of great campground staff, good sites and plenty of amenities means that we will definitely be back for a return visit.
