This is a small, very remote campground on the edge of the national park. We were set up to stay here a week, but after a change of plans, ended up at Elkmont instead. As a result, we only stayed here a night, in site A10.

I saw several reviews before we went saying the the sites are small. I don't know that I'd agree with that - our site, at least, was fairly spacious - but the layout was downright weird. Our tent pad was positioned behind the parking spot for the site next to us, and their tent was on the far side of that spot. Perfect for a group that wants both sites, I suppose, but a bit uncomfortable for us, especially since we got in late at night and had trouble finding our spot.

The tent pad was comfortable, but I have my doubts about the size. I could've sworn the reservation said it could fit a 9x12 tent, which is the size of our tent when the sunroom isn't set up, but our tent was too large for the pad. We ended up fudging the set-up so we could get everything to fit.

There's one restroom in the campground and it's a bit of a hike to get to it; there's a paved path between two campsites, and the restroom is the lit building in the woods behind them. It's a long walk in the middle of the night, but not too bad if you have a flashlight. There are flush toilets and running water.

While many of the sites aren't on the river directly, there is access to the water either through empty sites or between some of the sites.
