| We've camped at Elkmont several times and loved it. I'm trying to plan a trip to the park for October, and I've found that there are several other campgrounds that I've never even considered. The one that interests me most is Cades Cove campground. Has anyone stayed there? What about the others? Thanks in advance! |

We've never stayed at Caves Cove, but it was always written up as a good place to camp, in the camping books.
We did camp near Cherokee, N.C., at one of the Indian operated campgrounds. It was along a large creek and was really nice and cool at night. It was called Stoney's Camp. I've seen the name in some of the current camp books.
If i remember right, it was on a road that ran off the highway that goes over the mountain toward Gatlinburg, and Pigeon Forge.
Been years, and memories fade, things change. Cherokee has lots to see!

| It's been years, but I always enjoyed the backcountry camp sites, and had my favorite. Imagine my surprise to go one year and find chain link fence! Not exactly what you want in a woodsy situation. |
