Had a great trip. My 3 boys and I liked LeConte the first day of the shutdown. So happy we could. It was a bucket list trip. Everyone was great. Francis at the store even recalled that tj boys and I were doing that hike. She asked how it went when we returned. Campers and hikers are the absolute best people. If you can pass this on to Francis, it would mean a lot to me.

We routinely stay at Elkmont CG. Granted, it's large with not a lot of privacy - but it is a NPS CG. Clean. Prefer the non-generator loop(s). A great base to fly fish the TN side of the park as well as hiking too.

Excellent campground. Well maintained and clean. Bathrooms in great condition. Easy access to several trails and historical sites.

I camped at Elkmont Campground after attending a wedding at Appalachian Clubhouse.

The campground is well-maintained, with many amenities. The staff were friendly and helpful. A great experience.

The sites were a bit close but overall it was a nice campground.

Of course I knew how sparse the facilities would be but the dishwashing station was a pleasant surprise. We had no choice but to bring our dog so I knew ahead that it wasn't going to be the best experience. The one dog trail was ok. I am looking forward to returning without her to really enjoy the park.

No bathrooms, just dirty porta poties.
@MatthewL924 · Camped on Oct 3, 2021 at Campsite #A6
The camp was well taken care of and the rangers were pleasant and helpful. Hopefully the restrooms will be fixed soon, the porta-potties weren’t the cleanest.

What a disgrace not to have clean toilet facilities! The portapotty was a replacement for the restrooms and unfortunately these had poop smeared on the seats and were overflowing with waste. The grounds were poorly kept and I guess this is what happens when you dont charge an entrance fee!

Arrived a day late due to tow vehicle breakdown. Arrived early 2nd day. Two hours of sun, then rained until next day when evacuation began. Loved it as we always do, but couldnt do much, left on third day.

Had a great time. I do think that the SMNP Camp Grounds should be upgraded to include shower facilities.

The campsite is in a great location. Staff is friendly and informative. Plenty of wildlife to see and little to no traffic

We absolutely loved camping here! Super clean, well taken care of and quiet! Super safe for the kids to ride their bikes around. Loved the sound of the river while sitting around the fire pit. Can not wait to spend another week camping here!
