Heading south out of Greeneville, follow the signs for Paint Creek Corridor/Camping. Once we entered the Paint Creek Corridor, there was a single lane paved road all the way to the site. (We did pass several cabins before having to turn left into the camping area) We passed several nice picnic areas and vault toilets getting to the site. The site was kind of grown up with weeds. There was parking for several vehicles and was fairly level. Looks to be designed for tents, but we were able to get our campervan in. We were the only ones camping. It was really pretty driving in through the Paint Creek Corridor. Several folks were fishing in the creek. So, bring your fishing gear. There was no cell service with AT&T or Verizon. There is a National Forest Service pay campground in this area that looked really nice.
