Sites are very close and the quiet hours aren't enforced. Seemed as though there were several campers of friends there and they all stayed up very late around the fire partying. Ok for an overnight stay but not much else. The road in is narrow and crooked. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The campground was decent, but the pull through RV sites leave a little to be desired. The reason I am giving such a poor rating is because of the management. I reserved a campsite for two nights for my wife's birthday. When we were leaving our house we had trouble with our wiring harness on the truck, so I called Deep Creek to see about changing our reservation to the following weekend. They said no and that we would be charged for both nights of the reservation, even if they booked the campsite. So, we found someone to fix the truck and made the 4 hour drive to Deep Creek and arrived around 8pm. We started setting up the travel trailer and realized the A/C did not work (brand new travel trailer). I went to the office and explained my situation again, but still no sympathy from Deep Creek. I was not asking for a refund, just the ability to move my reservation. Again, I was rudely told no. So, I paid $60 for a campsite we did not use and I am sure they were able to rent the campsite to someone else. Until this campground is under new management, I would not suggest staying here. You will not be treated with any shred of decency. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Privately owned campground not to be confused with Deep Creek campground in the GSM Natal Park which is right down the road. The campground was nice altho' sites are small and right on top of each other. The big rig sites are in full sun -- no trees nearby. We camped on the creek, site #5 -- full hookup, 30 amp. The site itself was nice because of the creek, but the site to our left had 4 kids that did not respect our site boundaries -- they kept walking thru our site. The site to our right had 5 young adults who were up until 3:00 a.m. drinking and partying. The store doesn't offer much, mostly tubing shoes and souveniers, so if you need something for a meal or camping/RV supplies, get it before you get here. They do sell firewood. Fire rings don't burn a good fire tho' -- no air gets to the bottom of the fire. So all the fires we saw, including ours, were mostly smoke not flame. Staff (owners?) at check-in didn't know too much about the area, didn't know any good restaurants or things to do, offering only the train ride (didn't know anything about the train other than it's existence, i.e., didn't know cost, times, etc). I had also inquired about the tubing in the campground. The woman didn't know how long of a tube ride it was, either in time nor length. Bathrooms were on the clean side, however stifling hot -- no exhaust fans, fans or air circulation of any kind. Water pressure was good, water hot and there were changing rooms attached to the shower. Might consider staying here again but not during a high demand season. Kids would have fun tubing all day. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Sites are very small. Most sites occupied with year long residents. Available sites to travelers are beside the road. Very noisy. Neighbors are loud. First morning neighbor was talking with a buddy at 5:30 a.m. We left on Labor Day and that morning (7 a.m.) workers were putting up a metal shelter over a travel trailer. Well centralized to attractions. Would not stay there again. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Friendly staff, paved road in changes to gravel for the last quarter mile, very tough angle to turn into the campground. Only a handful of people there, cold pool, very small store. Would recommend for those in pop ups with small children looking for quiet place to spend a few days. Nearby Bryson City Railroad is great day trip for the kids; also near by river rafting & tubing. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This campground is very convenient if you are going to the Nantahala Outdoor Center, but I will try someplace difference next time. The sites are spread out on a very busy road. When walking to the bath house I thought more than once I was going to be hit by a car speeding down the road. We camped in a tent with no access to electricity that was near a stream which would have been nice if it wasn't so close to the road and road noise. We arrived in the evening and the woman who checked us in wasn't very friendly. The bathrooms and showers were clean. We camped here in a Tent.

The campground is a great base to sight see the area. We camped on the creek. This is a family friendly place. There were many children out playing..my kids had a great time. There is a pen behind the office with adult and baby goats. You can rent tubes for $4.00 and tube on the creek. It would be nice if there was some foliage or trees between the sites for more privacy or to make it feel more wooded. Also the bathrooms need some repair or upgrading. The windows without much effort could be easily looked into with a view into the shower area.I say this because I was at a campground once where some peeping tom kids did get up to the same type windows at night to look into the women's bathrooms. Also the doors on the showers and toilet stalls do not give complete privacy, my daughter pointed this out to me. Overall, the campground was OK and we would go back if in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We spent 5 nights. The weekend was sold out. This is a great campground for tent campers or those with small trailers. The electric service does not support heaters or air conditioners. This is an old campground with a lot of character and a great stream that runs through it. They also have several group sites. The big attraction is they are only 1 mile from the Nantahala River and the Nantahala Outdoor Center. They attract a lot of paddlers, mountain bikers and hikers. The Appalachian Trail runs less than a mile from this camp. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

A great area, if you like white water rafting and a train ride. A small campground in the back of a motel, choice of 2 sites. With a 40' will not visit again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

When we arrived (exactly at check in time) the people who occupied our spot were still asleep. When we spoke with the owners they said "come back in an hour, they're still getting up." Wow. This park is very nice but there are problems. The main problem is space. As usual with private CG's the space is limited and campsites have no privacy at all. We camped in a popup site right next to a small stream but our neighbors were on top of us. It was the first time we had to hook up barriers to have a small amt of privacy. Also, it rained 4 out of 5 days (which of course is not the CG's fault). The bathrooms were very clean and the owners were nice people. Although I wonder about CG's that go around collecting unused firewood instead of leaving it for the next camper. They use it again and charge $2 per bundle. The last campers gave it to us and the owners swiped it before we had the chance to collect it. Noise. Why they had to drive around the CG at 8:00 am in their deisel dually doing work along with a tractor is beyond me. This is not good CG policy with paying customers. The noise coming from a nearby factory or construction site was ridiculous. Most of the sites were Big rig sites with no one home, weekenders I guess. Big rigs have no waterfront sites, only popups and tents, but you have a view of other campers. Popup and tent sites have no sewage. When we arrived we had an audience watching us set up since the sites were so darned close. It was really uncomfortable. So, place is clean, bathrooms clean, showers clean, friendly owners, pet friendly...But I would not stay here again. It's just too non private and too packed during peak season. The little things we look for in a CG are not there. It's not worth it considering the other choices in the area. There are too many CG's other than this as you are on the edge of the great smoky mountains. I chose this CG from a search on the internet, I knew nothing of it otherwise. My suggestion is you do a search or ask around for a better CG in or around Bryson city. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
