Cosby Campground has sites in attractive settings, and there are trails directly out of the campground.

This is a very nice rustic campground. The tent pad was flat and smooth, and the site was spacious and shaded. One evening a thunderstorm came through as we were about to sit down to supper, so we went to the pavilion in the nearby picnic area outside the campground to eat. We were told it rains a lot in the park, but when it was dry it was lovely.

Great campsite, very affordable, beautiful location. Biggest downside is that there are no showers, but there are bathrooms and clean running water

Great campsite! Each site is well spaced from others and the amenities are plentiful and well cared for. Highly recommend for a place to camp when in the Smokies!

Cosby was actually the single terrible experience we have ever had in the Smokies. Some of the bathrooms were closed and lines were long. They were more nasty than any truck stop. In the ladies bathroom someone must have chain smoked in there non stop and also puked chunks in the sink. My wife was disgusted. There were kids screaming all night. Do NOT choose Cosby as a campground in the Smokies.
