After spending over 10 days in the Smokies and on the Blue Ridge Parkway with no hook ups, I decided it was time to plug in for a day. This park easily fit that bill.

After spending over 10 days in the Smokies and on the Blue Ridge Parkway with no hook ups, I decided it was time to plug in for a day. This park easily fit that bill.
Only a mile of so off the Parkway, the location was just what I was looking for. Easy enough check in, staff was helpful and pleasant. Typical RV Park sites here - concrete and level with full hook ups which can accommodate any sized rig. Mostly seasonal retired folks here. Nice activity building with clean bathrooms and showers. Didn't use the laundry room. Good Verizon signal here and the wi-fi worked very well.

My husband was diagnosed with an advanced stage of lymphoma cancer and we needed to cancel our spring camping plans at 4 campgrounds. Three of the 4 understood and gave us a refund. Down by the River Campground only gave us the option to use the credit for one year and my husbands treatment will last longer than a year. I am very disappointed in their lack of compassion.

Nice park. No cable but wifi worked great at my site.
Many seasonal sites but well maintained.
55+ Mostly Floridians escaping the heat.
BR parkway couple miles away.
Spacious sites.
Very little road noise.
A little smell from concrete plant near but only when wind was right and only on weekdays.
Texian would stay here again
