Rock Creek is a beautiful campground with an excellent location close to Erwin and not too far to Johnson City. The sites are spacious for the most part and the trail leading to the falls is great. That said, the caretaking of the bathhouse and grounds was far below par. Especially the men's facilities, they were filthy. We came into our site to find the firepit with several pieces of trash, including cans. There were multiple holes dug around the site, apparently by a dog, and the table bench was covered with sand. It's a shame that the camp hosts don't do the job they were hired for. I feel really sad to give this poor review to what could be a lovely park.

Large sites spaced far apart with power. Water is available at stations around the three loops A, B, and C. There is a manmade swimming area fed by mother nature from ever flowing creek running down from the mountains. TV signal is only for the 4 PBS stations, bring your own CD's. Each loop has a restroom as well as swimming area. If you like hiking, you'll love it here. Trails in excellent shape and different lengths. One even has a waterfall. The price you can not beat - $20.00.

Rock Creek was perfect for our inaugural camping weekend with our new GO! The site was beautiful and trails awesome. The Park rep was super nice as well. We will definitely reserve again!

The campsites were great, clean, and mostly secluded. We actually extended our stay by 3 days!

Loved the large wooded sites. Beauty Spot an amazing view.

Nice campground, good hiking. Bathrooms are usually very nasty. Host never speaks or does check runs.
Good

I was disappointed in the restrooms this trip. No soap, DURING COVID! Also, pretty grungy, loop C shower was out of order. Previous trips I dont recall them being a mess. Rest of campground, great as always.

Nice smaller campground. We have only used C loop because it has 50 Amp. Clean, shaded, but a little tight. Have a Class A and all of C loop is ok with the exception of C 28. 28 is a great spot but the entry is a tough angle to back into. Rest rooms are clean and everyone is friendly. Also if you eat out go to PALS burgers. Exit 36 I think. Great burgers.This is an easy area to enjoy with an outstatnding water fall hike. A little steep but well worth it. Plenty of additional not so steep hikes available.
Excellent

Gorgeous mountains and flowing streams. Nice facility but our site was trashy with syrup container opened killing bees and candy trash in fire ring.
