Great location. Bathrooms didn't have soap, so bring hand soap

Who wouldn't want to check out the Great Smokey Mountains? The place was great, the people were nice. We loved the hiking there!

Smokemont campground was very peaceful and quiet. It was nice to be so close to the river. The bathrooms were very clean. I loved that generators were off from 8pm to 8am, we slept very soundly. I would highly recommend this campground for tent camping or RV camping!

The bathrooms were not as clean as they usually are. They had a foul odor for the four days we were there. A "light study" was being conducted in the nearest bathroom, and there were no lights. I don't know what this "study" was about, but it was a real inconvenience.

Smokemont is one of our favorite campgrounds. Got a spot by the river, went horseback riding, went hiking to Andrews Bald! Saw bear and a ton of elk!
@KathrynM671582 · Camped on Aug 4, 2025 at Campsite #F46
The campground is beautiful and the sites are spacious (we were in F section). We could hear the river from our site, and get to it without any problem. The bathrooms were clean, but lights not on after dark. Would prefer LED lights that come on automatically when someone enters. The thing that would make this campground so much better would be hot showers!

This campground offers some lovely water side sites that are always cool. Just sitting by the water is relaxing. This campground is convenient to going into Cherokee if cell service is needed but has large sites and gets you fully into the woods for a sense of adventure. We have been coming back for more than 40 years. Thank you!

It rained every day.

A specific ground worker for the park speeding through campground around kids just to find something to complain about with us weve camped here many times and every time he harasses us. Probably wont be back here it was supposed to be a fun camping trip every time but it wasnt due to him .
@ToddD7843035 · Camped on Jul 24, 2025 at Campsite #F38
The campsite was nice. We backed up to a stream, and the site was relatively flat. Unfortunately, they were doing a "study" at the bathrooms where the lights were off and not able to be turned on. It was quite difficult to, first, find the bathroom at night and, then, use it. (We rolled in after dark and had to ask another guest where it was, even though we had a map.)
@KennethY793330 · Camped on Jul 23, 2025 at Campsite #D9
Would have been great but no.lighting in bathrooms caused a lot of trouble and concern for a family with 3 young girls. Please don't consider elimination of lighting going forward. Unsafe and concerning.

A wonderful camping experience. Clean facilities right next to a beautiful river.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
