A really beautiful location and campground. Very well taken care of and nice distance between sites. We loved playing around the creek!

Worst camping experience EVER. Loud obnoxious people and bears with rabies!! So many better options in the GSMNP.

Absolutely excellent location and experience. Creek right there within site, bathroom a one-minute walk away, running water right next to the site. Friendly staff, well-maintained grounds. We will absolutely be returning to this gem of a site.

Loved this tent only location. it is kept very clean by Park staff and the campers. All look to follow the Bear rules well. We stayed for 10 days in June and will return this fall or next year. Keep this place a secret!

The road back in to the campground area is riddled with potholes. Bathrooms were very clean and tidy and HAD SOAP!! YAY!! Wasn't sure if we were supposed to wash dishes at the sink by the bathrooms or at campsite and pitch washwater away from campsite area. I used the sink. Missed seeing a camp host. Campsites were well maintained. Wonderful campground. My favorite!

Perfect spot on the eastern side of GSMNP! Limited number of tent only spots was perfect to get out into nature. Two creeks/streams converge on the edge of the campground and the sound of the water was sweet music. Limited cell service was fantastic to disconnect. Several great hikes right from my tent door. Looking forward to a time when I can go back and spend more days there exploring.

This is my favorite campground of all. I just wish it had bearproof food storage lockers at the sites to prevent having to haul coolers and food boxes back and forth every time we leave the site or go to sleep. Absolutely beautiful little campground and the host was nice and helpful.

Such a wonderful area!! The campground host introduced himself and was available. The only issue I had was a very late arrival who set up the family tent in the center of the sites using a headlamp which shone into my tent and awakened me.

Shhhh! don't tell anyone about this campsite......
@NinaM66EA73454 · Camped on Sep 19, 2019 at Campsite #10
Sites are very close to the parking lot and the sound of the creek running through the back of the campground was relaxing to sleep to.

So awesome. The creek roaring at night was absolutely amazing. My daughter and I cannot wait to go back this year!

I love Big Creek. It's so quiet and peaceful. More and more, it's getting hard to find that in the Smokies.
