Beautiful spot. Saw bears twice at the campground!

The campground is in beautiful woods. In June, bird song and calls made a soundscape from dawn to dusk. At night an occasional owl or coyote call was heard. Trails lead in several directions from trailheads in walking distance of the campground.

The Cades Cove Loop Road is a big attraction, but it gets jammed up with cars causing the 11 mile trip to take 2 to 3 hours. The exception is Wednesday, when motor vehicles are excluded (except for e-bikes). The loop is perfectly lovely by bicycle or foot on a Wednesday, and a Tuesday night stay at the campground is a great way to stage a loop ride/walk.

The campground is well-kept, except there was no soap in restroom soap-dispensers due to a supply chain problem. The washroom has a sink for washing dishes. There are no showers in Cades Cove.

Been coming to Cades Cove 1-2 times a year for many years. Always relaxing and the wildlife is amazing.

Great experience! Rangers and store staff were all more than helpful and the grounds were very clean.
