The "city" of Smithville isn't exactly a booming place to be... Mostly closed or old buildings - very small, and unless you're camping, I wouldn't stay in the immediate area. But once you get to the lake, it's amazing! The campgrounds are well kept and fairly large. The lake itself winds around, snake-like, with cove after cove to play in or soak up the sun in. You want privacy? You got it! You want wakes? You have that too! The fishing must be outstanding considering the many tournaments they have there. My husband and I live closer to two other lakes, but we drive just over an hour to come to this one. We can't say enough great things about it!

This was our second time here. I am always impressed by TN State Parks. Clean bathrooms, friendly…read morestaff, it can make a big difference in your day. We did some fishing, but no catching haha. We napped in the sun, and watched boats and birds go by. While we did not go up the tower or in the wildlife area, we thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing day here. It's a little early in the year, so we didnt see too many people. One note, the two bathrooms we used both had stairs. Im sure they have bathrooms that can be accessed without stairs, but I didn't see them. One note, there are picnic tables near the road to one of the boat ramps. As I was driving through a small child ran out in front of me from between to parallel parked cars. No big deal, I was driving like an old lady, but highky recommend keeping an eye out if you drive through there.

The park has access to a river beach across from a neat dam, where kids were having a great time lifting big rocks and heaving them into the water. The trail was rather steep, went down pretty quickly, flattened for a while, then sharply inclined back up. All in all, I get the feeling we need to return and do a little more, but I like what I see so far!!

There is a big cabin in the back of the property and lots of trails. Nice shade trees and flowing fields of green. The place has a bath house the is kept neat and tidy. Everything everywhere was neat and clean. Sunshine at the front reception had a very bubbly and helpful personality. There are several different things to do while you are here. I liked exploring the woods that led to a small waterfall . It smelled so fresh and new because of all the greenery. I felt so far from civilization but wasn't. It was only about $40 a day with water and power hook up. You can get a sewer hookup for $10 more but the dump station is free down the path not too far from the campsites. I am looking forward to returning here. I love the peacefulness and tranquility of the place. I just wish I could of jumped in the lake for a swim but I don't think that is allowed. The stream in the woods was very cool and refreshing though. I love this place!

I highly recommend this place!!…read more I am from the outskirts of Chicago and I just bought a 2019 RV a year ago, and this was the first the family stayed at a private campground (not a State Park or KOA). It was a last minute decision to stop in TN for one night on our way hland we were happy we picked Deep Valley. First reasons to pick this place, great prices for the amenities. If you're cost-sensitive like me, or on a budget - great place. Of all the places we stayed at for the past two years they had the best prices! Second reason to stay here, and the biggest reason, the owner treated us like family - NO BS! When I pulled-in the park, I was greeted with a smile and he called me by my name before I introduced myself. They're in the people business and they do it well!! Pete is the man who greeted me. He is smart, informative, and super helpful. Everyone who writes about this campground is because of Pete and his family - they're great people and and worth meeting.

I absolutely have to give this place five stars. I'm not sure what the negative reviewer has…read moreexperienced, but we've been here for two months (staying one more), and it's beyond lovely. The owners are amazing, accommodating, and kind. Pete even checks with us weekly to see if we need propane. We have bonfires and potlucks, and we all celebrated Thanksgiving together. There's a beautiful trail that leads down to a waterfall and creek directly from the property. The pool is very nice, although it's too cold to swim now. The showers are much like campground showers, but they're always clean and warm with great water pressure. The washers and dryers are brand new HUGE HE machines. You pay one monthly fee and wash all you want, so definitely the best value we've ever experienced in a camp. The clubhouse is available at all times with pool, air hockey, foosball, games, puzzles...anything you'd really like to do. The camp itself is small and private and in the deep country. Very quiet. You will not ever experience similarities to a large, commercialized campground, so please do not arrive with those expectations. Come here if you enjoy the freedom to have campfires, hiking in your own backyard, and a family-like atmosphere. The owners are always here, it's safe, and it's close to Dale Hollow Lake, Standing Stone State Park, and many other attractions nearby. The electric is 30-amp, but we have had no issue with this. Pete lends you an adapter, as well as a cord to keep your waterlines insulated, then he coaches you on how to conserve electric. We've gone over a few times, and you simply walk down and flip a breaker. No issues at all. The WiFi is FANTASTIC. I work full-time from home online, so this is a MUST for me, and it has not failed us. What I love most is the horseshoe shape of the common grounds. You can see the swing set and pavilion from any site. My kids can safely play here, and the teenagers have been "hanging out" like they would with school friends. Lots of places here for them to socialize without being too close to campers (or bothersome). And they love children here, so it's a wonderful family camp. It's just an overall great camp filled with gracious people, nature, and heart. We love it here and will always come back when we're in this area. It breaks my heart to see only the negative Yelp review sponsored here because our family, as well as everyone else here and anyone who has arrived since, have experienced the total opposite of what this person reported. Please allow this as a review for customers to see, as the review shown is not stereotypically indicative of a stay at this amazing little campground.

Most are visible from overlooks with short hikes, and for the more adventurous, there are treks to the bottom of the namesake falls, a cable trail (bring leather gloves, carabiner, possibly climbing gear) to Rockhouse Falls, or longer trails like the Paw Paw loop, Overlook trail, or even the Prater Place for a hidden Hemlock Falls. I also stayed in the lodge, which was fantastic! The rooms were well equipped, comfortable, and had great features like balconies. The view at the restaurant over the lake was beautiful, especially at sunset. The fisherman style cabins have decks literally on the water, so that looked like a must see at some point, too!! Couple of other hits: pet friendly rooms, pet friendly trails, golf course, cabins, fire pit and pool at lodge, Nature Center, and Visitor Center!

Fall Creek Falls State Park Campground Review: Campground C - Site 148 - The site is not level and…read moreour fifth wheel would not self level. We manually had to level our rig with our jacks. Many sites in campground C have a minimum to major slope to the concrete sites as they fall to a valley. All utilities are in the back corners of sites that include water spigot, a power pedestal with 20AMP, 30AMP, 50AMP electricity, and sewer connection. The campground did have decent guest WiFi, but we utilized our own StarLink satellite for internet. The park is amazing with golf, lodge, trails, and falls.
