We stopped by on our way to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.
This really is a beautiful park. The sites... well in our area, Carpenter Loop (?) they were a bit small and many were not level. You just need to be creative. We felt that it would be best for smaller rigs. We are just 20 feet and we just fit. There are some larger sites in the other loops. Use your best RV skills and you will be fine!
The campground has cabins, yurts and tent sites throughout the campground! Although we did not take advantage of it, the lake and fishing looked great as well as the park/picnic areas. There were also many hiking trails right from the park. If you hike, bring ORANGE as hunting is allowed at all times!
We did not use the bathhouse and we did not see a camp store.

I showed up without a reservation on a Friday and was given a great dog friendly site in Fox Run loop that had lots of privacy. No hookups but I have solar so no worries. The site was level which meant I didn't have to unhitch. A bonus for me. There are lots of hiking trails and a beautiful lake. The bathroom was clean. The shower stall tiny but the water was hot and had good pressure.

We stopped here to break up a long drive and we’re glad we did. A lovely park, wooded sites and a stunning lake. Level, paced lads (in the pet friendly loop, clean facilities and great cell connectivity (as we often work from the road).

We were there June 2-3. Site 48 (electric) in Carpenter Town. Very narrow camp roads, many trees and many sites difficult to back into. The photos are misleading. There is moss growing on the asphalt pavement in sites, very damp. Some sites very close together, we had trees separating us from other sites. Bathrooms older but ok. There are many hiking trails and a very nice lake with kayak rentals. No swimming in the lake but there is a public pool, large parking area. Small town of Dalton close by with grocery store, etc.

Many are non electric. The sites are at horrible angles and very uneven. The website photos are to small to tell anything. You also have to deal with the disastrous Pennsylvania roads.

All that said, it was an awesome experience. 50/30/20 amp service. Mountain biking trails, fishing, a lake and a pool (closed during off-season). Bathrooms clean and well maintained. Private sites.
Would stay again but would be more selective about picking a site.

This was the second time I camped here. First time a few years ago in a tent. Had a great time. This time I stayed in a popup trailer. No issue getting it in, but the sites are not very flat and the entrances are quite uneven and some are downright steep. There are a couple of sites that might work out if your trailer is under 24 feet, but any longer and you're in for a workout.

The site was a little un-level but were able to level our 38 ft motorhome. We had a site that was electric only which isn't a problem for us on a 4 night stay, being right next to the bathroom was helpful. I like the fact that check out time is 3, gives you plenty of time to get ready to go if you need it. We checked in early, about 1:00 and were told if the site was empty (which it was) we could occupy it right away. We travel with two dogs and there is adequate room to walk them. We had two granddaughters with us who wanted to swim in the pool and canoe in the lake. The pool was $4 per person whether you swam or not and $20/hour for a canoe which I thought was a bit high. The trails were ok, but nothing spectacular. With our We-Boost we had 3 bars on At&T and 4 on T-mobile which was a surprise as we had no service on T-mobile without. We entered the park from I-81 extit 109B on 524. That brought us almost to the entrance of the park. 524 was a bit tight with a few turns but manageable.
