Camp Leconte Luxury Outdoor Resort

18 RV Sites, 5 Tent Sites, 7 Glamping Sites, 2 Treehouses, 3 Vintage RV Rentals

Camp LeConte Luxury Outdoor Resort in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, offers 21 RV sites, two treehouses, seven glamping sites, and five tent sites four miles from downtown, with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 42 feet. Named retro campers — Glamping at Tiffany's, Miss Daisy, and The Ruby Slipper — join European safari tents in a curated lodging mix. Twenty-one sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 42 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, BBQ pits, cable TV, and site WiFi. Note the 42-foot cap before booking a larger rig. The lodging is the distinguishing feature: two treehouses, seven glamping units including European safari tents, and the three named retro campers give guests genuinely unusual options in a corridor where most properties offer standard cabins. An outdoor pool and hot tub anchor the warm months, with a playground, pavilion, and ping pong on the grounds. The mountain setting and creek nearby round it out, with birding productive across the property. Pets are welcome. Gatlinburg's downtown Parkway is four miles away, with Great Smoky Mountains National Park access adjacent and the full Smoky Mountain entertainment and dining infrastructure within minutes. An amusement park and wine tasting are nearby. The resort has run since 2013 as a family-owned boutique property. Summer and October foliage drive the heaviest demand in one of the most visited tourist corridors in the country — reserve well ahead for both.

Uncle Jim's River Cove Campground

80 RV Sites, 5 Tent Sites, 3 Onsite RV/Trailers

Uncle Jim's River Cove Campground in Sevierville, Tennessee, offers 84 full-hookup RV sites and five tent sites on the West Prong of the Little Pigeon River, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted up to 98 feet. On-river, river loop, mountain view loop, and buddy site categories join a beach, playground, and pickleball courts. Eighty-four sites span full-hookup on-river, full-hookup river loop, full-hookup mountain view loop, and full-hookup mountain view loop buddy categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 98 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Ninety-eight feet is exceptional for the Smokies, where terrain usually limits length. Every site gets a fire pit, charcoal grill, and picnic table. The buddy sites suit two rigs traveling together. Five tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and an indoor bathhouse handle the practical side. The river carries the recreation, with a beach, swimming, fishing, and inflatable water toys. Sports courts, pickleball, basketball, gaga ball, a playground, dog park, and picnicking fill the grounds. Pets are welcome, and there is a dog park for them. The address is 2575 Pittman Center Road, in the Sevier County countryside between Sevierville's commercial corridor and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park's Greenbrier entrance — close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg without sitting in the traffic. Summer and fall foliage drive demand hard. Reserve well ahead for June through October.

Rolling Meadows Family Campground

1 RV Site

Rolling Meadows Family Campground in Murphy, North Carolina, offers a water-and-electric back-in RV site alongside cabins and tent camping in the far western corner of the state, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 35 feet. A brand-new heated bathhouse, disc golf course, and laundry serve a Cherokee County property still finding its way onto the maps. The RV site is water-and-electric back-in, carrying 20, 30, and 50-amp service, sized to 35 feet, with a fire pit and picnic table. Plan around the hookups — water and electric rather than sewer, with a dump station on site — and note the 35-foot cap. Contact the campground for current availability of additional sites; the property is new and expanding. Cabins and tent camping round out the lodging. A dump station, portable toilets, and a new heated bathhouse and laundry handle the practical side. One navigation note the campground states plainly: the campground and its road are so new that many GPS applications do not have them yet. Try 195 Hampton Church Road — their radio station neighbor — and follow signs from there. A disc golf course, bocce ball, corn hole, and horseshoes fill the grounds, with boating nearby. Pets are welcome. Murphy sits at the far western tip of North Carolina where the state meets Georgia and Tennessee, surrounded by the Nantahala National Forest. The Hiwassee and Valley Rivers, Lake Hiwassee, the Tail of the Dragon, and Harrah's Cherokee Valley River are all close. Spring and fall foliage drive demand in the western mountains. Reserve ahead for October.

Skull Shoals Park & Campground

1 Tent Site

Skull Shoals Park & Campground in Washington, GA, offers RV camping with full hookups alongside tent camping on 68 acres of pine-forested terrain. The published site record is thin — contact the park for site count, amp service, and maximum rig length before you book. A bathhouse with showers and WiFi serve the grounds, and pets are welcome. There's a playground on site. Creek frontage and picnicking fill the property, which doubles as one of northeastern Georgia's more versatile outdoor event venues — worth checking the calendar against your dates either way. Washington sits in Wilkes County, a historic community whose 18th and 19th century character as one of Georgia's earliest settlements is still visible in its antebellum architecture and courthouse square. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Call ahead to confirm hookups and your rig's fit, and ask whether an event is booked on your dates.

Ted & Tracy's RV Campground

23 RV Sites, 12 Tent Sites, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer

Ted and Tracy's RV Campground in Washington, Georgia, offers 24 full-hookup back-in RV sites and 12 tent sites among mature trees on Upton Creek, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Creekside, camper van, and entrance-adjacent categories name exactly where each site sits, with a community fire pit and WiFi. Twenty-four back-in sites span 50-amp creekside, 50-amp camper van and small camper, and 50-amp closer to the entrance categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Naming a category by its position — creekside or near the road — is unusually candid and lets you choose with your eyes open, and the dedicated camper van tier right-sizes for smaller rigs rather than making them pay for space they cannot use. Twelve tent sites round out the lodging. A community fire pit fills the grounds, with the creek running alongside. The amenity set is deliberately spare, which keeps rates accessible at a newly designed property. Extended stays are welcome. Pets are welcome. Wilkes County sits in Georgia's Upper Piedmont, and Washington is one of the more genuinely historic small towns in the state — an antebellum downtown with more than a hundred structures on the National Register, the Robert Toombs House, and Kettle Creek Battlefield close by. Clarks Hill Lake and Elijah Clark State Park are a short drive east, with Augusta and Athens both within an hour. Spring and fall bring the most comfortable Piedmont conditions. Reserve ahead for holiday weekends, and ask about extended-stay rates.

Stone Mountain Park Campground in Georgia offers 270 RV sites, 40 tent sites, and 20 glamping and yurt units inside the park's 3,200-acre property, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted up to 90 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Full hookup, super site, and cabled categories join a lake, kayak rentals, and pool, 16 miles from Atlanta. Two hundred seventy sites span full hookup RV, full hookup super site, and full hookup with cable categories, along with four- and six-person rental trailers, all carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 90 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Forty tent sites and 20 glamping and yurt units round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, showers, and a gated entrance handle the practical side. Cancellations more than five days before arrival are refunded less a $30 fee. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a lake supporting kayak rentals, canoeing, paddle boarding, fishing, and swimming. Sports courts, volleyball, horseshoes, walking trails, biking, a playground, and a pavilion fill the grounds. Staying inside the park is the advantage — the mountain, the family attractions, and the natural spectacle that draw Georgia's visitors are all within the gates rather than a drive away. Pets are welcome. Summer and fall drive demand at one of Georgia's most visited destinations. Reserve well ahead.

Rustling Pines Campground

16 RV Sites, 1 Tent Site

Rustling Pines Campground in London, KY, offers 16 RV sites and 1 tent site, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 80 feet. Sites come in two categories, full-hookup and electric-only, with full-hookup sites carrying water, sewer, and electric plus site-delivered WiFi and a fire pit, in back-in and pull-thru layouts. The campground is rated big rig friendly, and at 80 feet it takes the longest coaches. A general store, firewood, and a bathhouse cover the essentials. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. The trails are the differentiator: four miles of clearly marked riding and hiking trails on the property itself, suitable for all abilities, with longer routes running out from there. Creek frontage and walking trails fill the rest of the 40 acres. London sits in Laurel County adjacent to the Daniel Boone National Forest, in southeastern Kentucky's Lake Cumberland region — a practical base for the forest, the reservoir, and the waterfall country around it. A state park and a lake are nearby. Rates for full-hookup and electric-only sites are on the booking page. Trail-riding weekends fill the campground.

from $14/night

Soggy Bottoms Campground

11 RV Sites, 3 Tent Sites

Soggy Bottoms Campground in Liberty, Kentucky, offers 11 RV sites and three tent sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 120 feet. Full-hookup and water-and-electric back-in categories join a general store, playground, showers, and creek frontage. Eleven back-in sites run in full-hookup and water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 120 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. One hundred twenty feet is exceptional capacity for a park this size and accommodates anything on the road with room to spare. Three tent sites round out the lodging, and the tent rate covers one tent — additional tents need to be added to the reservation. A general store, dump station, and showers handle the practical side. A creek runs the property for fishing and canoeing and kayaking, with a playground and volleyball filling the rest. A national park area is nearby. Pets are welcome. Casey County sits in south-central Kentucky's rolling farm and forest country, genuinely rural and quiet. Liberty is the county seat, and the area is close enough to reach several of the state's better outdoor destinations without staying in a crowded corridor — Green River Lake, Lake Cumberland, and the Daniel Boone National Forest are all within a reasonable drive, with Mammoth Cave farther west. Spring and fall bring the most comfortable Kentucky conditions, with summer drawing lake traffic through the region. Demand runs steadily rather than seasonally at a park this size. Reserve ahead for holiday weekends.

Wood Mountain Campground

6 RV Sites, 16 Tent Sites, 4 Glamping Sites

Wood Mountain Campground in Glen Jean, West Virginia, offers six full-hookup RV sites, 16 tent sites, and four glamping sites on a hilltop directly off Highway 19, at the heart of New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. Sites carry 30 and 50-amp with water and sewer, sized to 35 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Six sites run in standard and premium full-hookup configurations carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 35 feet — note the 35-foot cap before booking a larger rig. Sixteen tent sites and four glamping sites round out the accommodations, alongside two-bedroom cabins with fully equipped kitchens and large covered porches. Restrooms, showers, and site WiFi handle the practical side. The hilltop position gives views across the surrounding forested ridgelines, and a disc golf course, barn, pavilion, corn hole, and picnicking areas fill the grounds. The operators put it plainly: this is West Virginia, where there are more trees than people, and guests who want to keep to themselves are as welcome as those who want to chat. Pets are welcome. Glen Jean sits directly across from both the Summit Bechtel Reserve — one of the largest scouting and outdoor education facilities in the world — and the national park's administrative hub, which puts this about as close to the action as any private property in the gorge. River outfitters and the town of Fayetteville are a short drive, and a creek and mountain terrain surround the property. Summer whitewater season and October foliage drive demand in the gorge. With six RV sites, reserve as early as you can.

Sasquatch Farm RV Park

47 RV Sites, 11 Tent Sites

Sasquatch Farm RV Park in South Pittsburg, Tennessee, offers 47 full-hookup RV sites and 11 tent sites across a 120-acre mountain farm on the Cumberland Plateau, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 90 feet. The property is big-rig friendly and includes on-site waterfalls, creek access, and valley overlooks from the plateau escarpment, 40 miles west of Chattanooga. Forty-seven full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp in back-in configurations, with fire pits and picnic tables at the sites and room for rigs to 90 feet. Eleven tent sites serve campers traveling light. A general store stocks basics and firewood, laundry and showers handle longer stays, and WiFi reaches the property. Note the after-hours gate code is 2536, and a park map with your name is posted on the store door at the entrance. The 120 acres are the draw. Waterfalls, creeks, and forest trails run across the property, with valley overlooks from the plateau rim that fan across eastern Tennessee and northern Georgia. Hiking, biking, kayaking, and fishing all start on site, and the mixed forest and lake terrain makes for productive birding. A dog park and spa round out the amenities, and a golf course is nearby. Pets are welcome. The property sits just outside Franklin State Forest, with the South Cumberland State Park complex — 11 units totaling over 25,000 acres — spread across the surrounding plateau. Chattanooga is 40 miles east. Access runs from Exit 134 off I-24 toward Sewanee, then northwest on 41-A for three miles to State Highway 156 and 15 miles on to Browns Trace. The campground serves the spring-through-fall plateau season, with October foliage the busiest window.

Bear Mountain Cabins & Campgrounds

32 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites

Bear Mountain Cabins and Campgrounds in Fayetteville, West Virginia, offers 32 RV sites and 10 tent sites one mile from the New River Gorge, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, open all year. Full-hookup and water-and-electric back-in and pull-through categories join a general store, playground, and laundry. Thirty-two sites span back-in water-and-electric 30/50-amp, back-in water-electric-sewer 30/50-amp, and pull-thru water-electric-sewer 30/50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 75 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The category names spell out exactly which utilities you get. Seventy-five feet is generous for gorge-country terrain and accommodates a long coach with a tow. Ten tent sites and cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A playground, volleyball, and the surrounding forest fill the grounds. The amenity set is focused rather than sprawling, which is right for a property whose guests are here for the gorge. Pets are welcome. The address is 130 Laurel Creek Road, one mile from the New River Gorge and three or four minutes from downtown Fayetteville. The gorge became America's newest national park in 2020, and the whitewater rafting, world-class climbing, and the single-span New River Gorge Bridge are all right there. Bridge Day in October draws BASE jumpers and enormous crowds. Summer rafting season and October foliage drive demand hard. Reserve well ahead, particularly for Bridge Day.
