Overall Camper Rating:

Stayed here until we could close on our house. Super friendly. Beats staying in a hotel. The cabin we rented was perfect for us. If I could, I would give this place 6 stars. 10/26/2020

nice for over night stay,,,,only problem was had to leave early due to bridge maintenains and closure at 8 am in the mourning which I knew about when I sign in..,,,,, 10/23/2020

A nice and quiet campground with sites that aren't on top of each other. The campground isn't "near the Great Smoky Mountains NP but the travel time is easy. It also is centrally located to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Sevierville and plenty of things to do. 10/21/2020

Everyone was nice 10/19/2020

Very polite and considerate staff. Well kept and maintained campgrounds. 10/19/2020

It was great except for the shower water was cold not hot. 10/19/2020

As soon as we pulled in, we were treated like family. Safe, clean environment. Masks and social distancing. Complimentary firewood bundle. Great place to stay!!ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ 10/19/2020

The park was easy to find and get too with a big rig towing a car. Staff was very helpful in getting to space. The facility was in fantastic shape, clean pool, clean restrooms and clean campgrounds... 10/18/2020

We had a late check in so it was after dark when we arrived. The directions to our campsite was confusing. I would recommend better detailed instructions for late check ins. However, the staff was VERY friendly and accommodating and the grounds were clean. 10/18/2020

Just did an over night while traveling. The site was large enough to for my 35 ft class A towing a jeep. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The store was clean and carried the usual needed camper and food items... 10/17/2020

Friendly supportive staff. Every thing we needed was available. 10/17/2020

Cabin was nice. Bathrooms could use some updating but they were clean. Friendly staff! 10/13/2020

Unfortunately due to circumstances we couldn't avoid, we were unable to stay there but, when I called to let them know they were very kind trying to accommodate us. We DO PLAN on going back there. 10/10/2020

A most enjoyable stay. Nice clean restrooms and laundry facility, well lit at night and we even had delicious BBQ delivered right to our site. Yummm 10/9/2020

Friendly staff and great location. We'd stay there again. 10/8/2020

The Biltmore Estate consists of the House, Gardens and Winery. Biltmore House took six years and 1,000 men to build; it opened its doors on Christmas Eve in 1895. With its 390-foot facade, the House has more than 11 million bricks, 250 rooms, 65 fireplaces, 43 bathrooms, 34 bedrooms, and three kitchens, all of which are contained in over four acres of floor space. The massive stone spiral staircase rises four floors and has 102 steps. Through its center hangs an iron chandelier weighing 1,700 pounds and contains 72 electric light bulbs. You'll experience a different kind of awe when you walk the Estate's grounds, Originally more than 125,000 acres of land, the Estate includes wooded parks, six pleasure gardens, a conservatory, and 30 miles of paved roadway. The Biltmore Estate Winery produces more than 50,000 cases of wine per year. Although it is one of the newest wineries, it is the most visited winery in the United States and has won over 100 awards in its first decade.
