I went tent camping, and couldn't really feel like I got settled in. Was there for 4 nights and each meal you have to unload and load coolers and cooking equipment. It honestly had to be the worst state park i stayed at. Bathrooms were minimal. They dont supply hand soap or hot water. NO SHOWERS!The camp store is a scam. $10 for wood thats typically $5 and ice was $5 for a bag thats typically $1.50 None of the sites have water or electricity. The sites weren't maintained. Lots of over growth and moss to the point I had to assume were the tent pad was.The workers are not friendly. They speed through the campground on the karts at a dangerous speed. It was a convenient location but not worth the inconvenience.

Hiked to Avent Cabin and saw the vacation homes by the campground that were completed. Very nice!

Elkmont is very conveniently located near many good trail heads and also close to town. Staff was quite helpful and friendly... even if some were Michigan fans (we're Ohio State fans)!! Only negative comment, our site was supposed to have a tent pad. It kinda didn't... could use a little attention. Otherwise, Elkmont was very clean and well maintained.

Loved the campground and our hike to nearby Laurel Falls. Despite being warned by the rangers that there were 4 bears roaming the campground while we were there, we didnt see a one. The river that borders the park is beautiful and the historic part of the campground was fun to see.

We enjoyed our stay at Elkmont. Check-in was a breeze and the lot was very nice. We hope to return next year. It is located in a beautiful area in GSMNP.

I prefer Elkmont over the Cade's Cove campground. It's large but the campsites are attractive. Just south of the campground is the Little River Trail; it's an easy but beautiful hike!

Most definitely the loudest campsite I have ever stayed at in my life. Since it's a national park campsite, there didn't appear to be a "host" that stayed on property at night. Otherwise, people would have been told well before 3am to shut up.

Love, love, love the campground! Very quiet, especially in late fall.

My favorite place to camp. There are so many things to see from this campground. Little River Trail and Avent Cabin are two of my favorite places in the world.
