Campsite 1 was at the entrance to the camp and had the most space and seclusion of all the sites. A short walk to the bathroom, but not bad. I loved hearing the rushing stream right off behind the site. Overall a very relaxing campsite. No cell service was a plus!

Somebody was in our site when we got there, and no cell signal to call or adjust our reservation. Need a check-in office.Other than that, place was beautiful, peaceful. Great place to stargaze! Would love to come back and explore more!

We stayed in campsite #1. Was nice that its the only campsite on that end of the campground. Only drawback is that is right next to the parking lot for day hikers. It worked out bc we brought the kids scooters and they had a good time riding on the pavement. The other campsites are pretty close together. So if you want to feel secluded, this isnt the campground for you. The creek is awesome to swim in. Theres a couple different areas to splash around. Bathrooms stunk pretty bad. But thats kind of what you get for an in ground toilet. No running water so make sure you bring plenty for dishes and stuff. Overall, was a great trip and we would go back.

Stayed in campsite 1 which is outside the loop with the other sites which was awesome, especially if you want to feel secluded. They have a fire ring, food box, parking, and tent site with no electricity hook up, also have bathroom facility located close to all campsites.

I would definitely stay here again. Small campground across the water from the Nemo Bridge. I stayed in site 1. 1 is secluded from the rest of the campground and has lots of space. The other sites are close together but nobody else was in the campground during my stay (late March). There is a train nearby that woke me up at night once and it's a popular area for side by sides which also woke me up once.

The campground was clean, the sites are spacious. Lovely having firepits/BBQ grill there and clean toilets. It was extra nice having it completely to ourselves. And what a gorgeous view to wake up.

This campground is basic as described. It offers a pleasant natural rural setting along the banks of the Emory River in the Cumberland Plateau of East Tennessee.

Campsite was clean with a fireplace, picnic table and flat area for the tent. The restrooms where clean with toilet paper. The best part was that the ranger passed by both days talking with the guest. This was the only official at the facility the entire weekend. The running water from the river really put me to sleep. Great Time!
