Nice backcountry campground in the SMNP. It is close to the Foothills Parkway, so it could be a little noisy. A lot of birds. I heard coyotes and owls at night. It is less than 1 mile from Abrams Creek Campground.

Love this site. Also a close small spring near site if water is needed. Bring a filter.

Great place, lines to hang bear bags, and a creek with plenty of water

Are dogs welcome and is a permit required to camp?

Nice level campsite only about an easy mile hike in. Creek provides water (filter or boil before drinking). Plenty of trees for hammock camping. 3 fire rings and 2 sets of bear cables.

Easy to access backcountry campsite. When you arrive, you'll need to leave your vehicles in the parking area just past the ranger station on the left; there is no place to park at the trail head on the far end of the campground - from the parking to the trailhead adds another 1/2 mile each way on a gravel road. If you have heavy packs, you may want to drive to the trialhead and drop bags off with one person and then go park unless you want the extra hiking. Hike is entirely on a wide access road, has a few minor inclines, two water crossings with no bridges - one of which can be tricky if there has been rain, and easy enough for a 5-6yr old (based on experience) so this is a good young family or beginner backcountry experience. Site has lots of shade, 3 different areas so you can spread out from other groups and has a nearby creek - just big enough for rinsing and getting feet wet.

Great site that is easy access for most family members regardless of age. The site is available and not trampled too badley. Water is accessible but must be treated. Dead fall firewood has is usually well picked over so bring a bow saw or hatchet for busting up the larger stuff everyone else passed up.
