Jellystone Park™ Watts Bar

173 RV Sites, 55 Cabins

Jellystone Park Watts Bar in Loudon, Tennessee, offers 173 RV sites and 55 cabins across 74 acres on Watts Bar Lake, with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 63 feet. Luxury back-in and dedicated Bark n Roll dog-friendly sites join standard categories in the Tennessee River Valley. One hundred seventy-three sites span standard back-in, standard pull-through, luxury back-in, and Bark n Roll categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 63 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The Bark n Roll sites are purpose-built for guests traveling with dogs, which is a genuinely useful distinction rather than a marketing label. Fifty-five cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, and restrooms handle the practical side. A lake sits on the property, with a recreation center, playground, pavilion, dog park, golf cart rentals, gem mining, and picnicking across the wooded and open acreage. Pets are welcome. Watts Bar Lake is the setting, and the 74 acres of rolling countryside along its shoreline give the resort a natural character that complements the Jellystone programming rather than competing with it. Polecat Ramp at 29302 Loudon Highway is the closest river access for guests bringing a boat. The resort serves the Tennessee lake season. Summer drives the heaviest family demand, with the shoulder seasons delivering more comfortable conditions and easier availability. Reserve well ahead for July and August weekends.

Spacious Skies Belle Ridge

49 RV Sites, 12 Cabins, 6 Tent Sites

Spacious Skies Belle Ridge in Monterey, TN, offers 49 full-hookup RV sites, 12 cabins, and 6 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 90 feet. Sites come in four categories — back-in, premium back-in, pull-thru, and deluxe pull-thru — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table, and ADA-accessible sites are available. The campground is rated big rig friendly, and at 90 feet the deluxe pull-thrus will take almost anything on the road. Open all year. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, a community fire pit, and golf cart rentals round it out. On arrival, all guests and visitors check in at the main office and sign the terms. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. The property spreads across more than 500 acres of the Cumberland Plateau, with waterfalls, caves, spring-fed swimming holes, and miles of hiking and UTV trails built into the forest, plus a pond for fishing, gem panning, a pavilion, a playground, and planned activities. The resort also hosts weddings. Monterey sits on the plateau between Nashville and Knoxville off I-40, with golf nearby. Rates for every accommodation type are on the booking page. Deluxe pull-thrus book first.

Raccoon Mountain Caverns & Campground

55 RV Sites, 9 Cabins, 22 Tent Sites, 5 Glamping Sites

Raccoon Mountain Caverns and Campground in Chattanooga, Tennessee, offers 55 full-hookup RV sites, nine cabins, 22 tent sites, and five glamping sites at the entrance to a 5.5-mile guided cave system, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Compact and deluxe pull-through categories join rustic back-in sites, with a pool, fitness center, and clubhouse. Fifty-five sites span compact pull-thru, compact pull-thru max tow, deluxe pull-thru, and rustic back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The compact max-tow category is a thoughtful distinction for smaller rigs with a vehicle in tow. Nine cabins, 22 tent sites, and five glamping sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Three policies to know: no hammocks or car camping on any site, no tents on RV sites, RVs manufactured before 2000 require photo approval, and you must be 21 to book. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a fitness center, clubhouse, pavilion, basketball, shuffleboard, corn hole, walking trails, hiking, a playground, and dog park besides. Sleeping beside the cave entrance is the singular draw — one of the Southeast's most accessible wild cavern experiences, with Lookout Mountain and downtown Chattanooga close. Summer and fall foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

Big Mouth Cave Retreat

59 RV Sites, 7 Cabins, 10 Glamping Sites, 1 House

Big Mouth Cave Retreat in Pelham, Tennessee, offers 59 RV sites, eight cabin and house units, and 10 glamping sites on the Cumberland Plateau — a seven-minute walk from The Caverns, the underground music venue. Restrooms, showers, and cabins serve guests at 444 Charlie Roberts Road in Grundy County. Fifty-nine sites are available alongside eight cabins and houses and 10 glamping sites. Contact the retreat directly to confirm hookups, amp service, and length limits for your rig before booking — the site records are incomplete, and it is worth a call rather than an assumption. Restrooms and showers handle the practical side. One booking note the property flags: be sure to select both your check-in and check-out dates when reserving. The accommodations are the closest you can stay to The Caverns, which is the entire proposition here. That venue is a nationally recognized concert hall built inside a natural limestone cave, and it hosts everything from bluegrass to major touring acts in a space with acoustics no purpose-built room can replicate. Being able to walk seven minutes back to your site afterward rather than drive a mountain road in the dark is worth a great deal. Grundy County sits on the Cumberland Plateau's southern edge, where sandstone bluffs, hemlock-lined gorges, and subterranean cave systems concentrate. Grundy Forest State Natural Area's old-growth cove forest, Foster Falls, and the Fiery Gizzard Trail are all close. Demand tracks The Caverns' concert calendar almost entirely. Check the schedule and reserve as early as you can for show dates.

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.

Rocky Top Campground

7 RV Sites, 2 Cabins, 1 Tiny House

Rocky Top Campground in Caryville, TN, offers 7 full-hookup back-in RV sites and 3 cabin and tiny house rentals, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 70 feet. Every site is a back-in carrying water, sewer, and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. At 70 feet the sites take a long rig, which is unusual for a seven-site mountain campground. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and WiFi cover the essentials, and the cabins and tiny houses give guests without a rig a place to stay. Pets are welcome. There's no recreation program here, and at seven sites that's the appeal — it's a full-hookup base camp, not a destination resort. Caryville sits in Campbell County in northeast Tennessee, where the Cumberland Plateau drops into the Ridge and Valley province, on the TVA reservoir that reshaped the Clinch River valley in 1936. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Seven sites in the mountains means summer and foliage weekends fill first.

from $56/night

Old Mill Camp

23 RV Sites, 2 Cottages

Old Mill Camp in Cookeville, TN, offers 23 full-hookup RV sites and 2 cottages, with 30 and 50-amp service. Sites come as back-ins and pull-thrus, each carrying water, sewer, and electric with a fire pit and picnic table, and ADA-accessible sites are available. The maximum rig length in the record isn't reliable, so call with your dimensions before booking a long coach. A general store, firewood, WiFi, and a playground cover the essentials. The property is gated and guests are issued the code at booking. Pets are welcome. Walking trails and hiking fill the grounds, and the general store is a genuine one rather than a vending nook. Old Mill Camp sits directly across the road from Cummins Falls State Park in the rural highlands of Jackson County, on Blackburn Fork Road. From I-40, take Exit 280 toward Baxter and Gainesboro and head north on Highway 56, following the directional signs. The falls are among the most dramatic swimming holes in Tennessee. Rates for sites and cottages are on the booking page. Cummins Falls limits gorge access by permit in season — check that alongside your reservation.

Sweetwater Sights RV Park & Cabin Rentals

Sweetwater Sights RV Park and Cabin Rentals in Robbinsville, North Carolina, occupies a remote and spectacular position in Graham County, one of the least densely populated counties in the eastern United States and home to some of the southern Appalachians' most dramatic river gorges, old-growth forests, and wilderness landscapes. Set at the western edge of the Great Smoky Mountains region where the Nantahala River carves through its famous gorge and the Snowbird Mountains rise above narrow hollows filled with rhododendron and hemlock, the park serves as an ideal base for serious outdoor adventurers targeting the region's premier whitewater, hiking, and backcountry fishing opportunities. Accommodation options include both full hookup RV sites and cabin rentals, giving guests a choice between self-contained travel and prepared lodging in a location where the remoteness of Graham County's terrain makes having a comfortable base essential after long days in the backcountry. The park's infrastructure serves guests whose priorities center on outdoor activity rather than resort amenities—the natural environment surrounding Robbinsville provides more recreational value per acre than almost any other location in the southern Appalachians, making the campground's role as a comfortable, reliable base its primary contribution to the guest experience. The Nantahala River Gorge, easily accessible from Robbinsville via US-74, is one of the most famous whitewater destinations in the eastern United States, drawing paddlers from across the country to its eight miles of Class II-III rapids in a deep, forested canyon where the river receives direct sunlight for only a portion of each day. The Nantahala Outdoor Center operates the region's most comprehensive rafting and kayaking operation from the gorge, and the river's consistent flow—fed by Nantahala Lake above—makes it runnable throughout the paddling season in a way that rain-dependent Appalachian rivers are not. Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, accessible via a scenic drive north of Robbinsville, protects one of the largest remaining stands of old-growth forest in the eastern United States—a grove of poplar, hemlock, and oak trees reaching diameters of over six feet that stood here before European settlement and survived through a combination of terrain inaccessibility and purposeful preservation. Fontana Lake's 10,530-acre impoundment provides boating, fishing, and access to the southern boundary of Great Smoky Mountains National Park via the Lakeshore Trail. The Cherohala Skyway, one of the most celebrated scenic byways in the Southeast, departs from Robbinsville and climbs to over 5,000 feet through the Unicoi Mountains into Tennessee. Sweetwater Sights operates seasonally from spring through fall, with the whitewater paddling season from April through October driving consistent demand from adventure-focused travelers, and fall foliage weeks in October filling capacity with scenic drive and hiking guests who fill the narrow valley with color-seekers each autumn. The park's remote setting in Graham County—two hours from Asheville and Knoxville—means guests who arrive tend to stay multiple nights, making it a destination property rather than a convenient overnight stop. Reservations during fall foliage and peak summer paddling weekends should be secured well ahead of arrival.

Mountaineer Campground

42 RV Sites, 3 Cabins

Mountaineer Campground in Townsend, Tennessee, offers 42 RV sites and three cabins along the Little River, with 30 and 50-amp full hookups, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 50 feet. Off-river categories run from 30-amp through deluxe 50-amp, with dedicated van, pop-up, and tent sites, on the quiet western approach to the Smokies. Forty-two sites span off-river 30-amp, off-river 50-amp, off-river deluxe 50-amp, and dedicated van, pop-up, and tent categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, BBQ pits, cable TV, and site WiFi. Having a separate category for vans and pop-ups is genuinely useful — small rigs are not charged for space they do not need. Three cabins round out the accommodations. Restrooms and showers handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a playground, pavilion, and walking trails on the grounds. The Little River runs the property, giving guests fishing, swimming, and the constant sound of clear mountain water over river stones — the sensory backdrop that distinguishes Townsend camping from the commercial experience in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Hiking, biking, and birding run from camp. Townsend bills itself as the Peaceful Side of the Smokies, and the description holds. Little River Outfitters on Highway 321 and The Backcountry on State Highway 73 can help plan fishing in the park. Summer and October foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

Black House Mountain Campground

Black House Mountain Campground in Jamestown, Tennessee, offers full-hookup RV sites and cabins on a big-rig-friendly property in Fentress County, with a general store, showers, and WiFi on the Cumberland Plateau. Off-road riders can reach the Pickett Forest trailhead 4.5 miles up Black House Mountain Road, directly across from the campground. Full-hookup RV sites and cabin accommodations serve both RV travelers and guests without a rig, on a layout sized for big rigs. A general store stocks basics, firewood is available, and restrooms, showers, and WiFi cover the practical side. The setting is forest and mountain, with walking trails running the property and picnicking areas across the grounds. The off-road access is the distinguishing practical feature — the Pickett Forest trailhead sits 4.5 miles up the road opposite the campground, so 4x4 and ATV guests can ride from camp rather than trailering out. Boating and creek access are nearby. Pets are welcome. The surrounding landscape is the most spectacular canyon country on the Cumberland Plateau. Pogue Creek Canyon State Natural Area, Pickett State Park, and the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area are all close, holding deep sandstone gorges, carved slot canyons, and natural arches and bridges in a concentration unmatched elsewhere in the Tennessee plateau. To reach the campground from Jamestown, take Highway 127 to Pickett Park Highway (154N) and travel northeast for 9.8 miles; the campground is on the right. The campground serves the Cumberland Plateau season, with fall color in October the most spectacular window and summer carrying the heaviest river and trail traffic. Reserve ahead for both.

The Broken Banjo RV Park

37 RV Sites, 13 Tent Sites

The Broken Banjo RV Park in Manchester, Tennessee, offers 37 full-hookup pull-through RV sites and 14 tent sites halfway between Nashville and Chattanooga, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 88 feet. Gravel and paved pull-throughs, some with paved patios and one with a fenced patio, join an outdoor pool, splash pad, and mini-golf. Thirty-seven sites span gravel pull-thru, gravel pull-thru with paved patio, long gravel pull-thru with paved patio, and paved pull-thru with fenced patio categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 88 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Publishing both the surface and the patio type is unusually transparent, and the fenced patio is a genuine find if you travel with dogs. An all-pull-through layout at 88 feet handles anything on the road. Fourteen tent sites and cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and on-site dining handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and splash pad anchor the summer, with mini-golf, sports courts, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, gaga ball, billiards, corn hole, a pond, playground, pavilion, walking trails, hiking, and a dog park filling the rest. Coffee County sits on the Highland Rim, with waterfalls, cave systems, and forested creek corridors close — and Bonnaroo's farm just outside town. Bonnaroo week fills the county. Reserve as early as you can.

The Cabins at Long Branch

3 Cabins

The Cabins at Long Branch in Topton, NC, offers 3 handcrafted two-bedroom cabins at 3,500 feet above the Nantahala Gorge. This is a cabin property rather than a serviced RV park — the published record shows no RV sites or hookups, so contact them directly if you're traveling in a rig. WiFi covers the property, and there's a playground. The elevation and the seclusion are the product. A lake, creek frontage, and mountain forest surround the cabins, with fishing, kayaking, boating, whitewater rafting, and birding all close. Topton sits high above the Nantahala River's Class III and IV whitewater corridor in the southern Blue Ridge — one of the most-run stretches of whitewater in the eastern United States, with the Nantahala Outdoor Center and Great Smoky Mountains National Park nearby. Rates for the cabins are on the booking page. Three cabins in peak rafting and fall color season book out early — and call about RV accommodation before you tow.
