The amenities were top-notch--from the pool and lazy river to the arcade and so much more. There are endless options to keep the kids entertained while also providing a great atmosphere for parents to relax and unwind. We made some wonderful family memories and would definitely recommend staying here!

This is a big operation. Lot's of staff, well organized and run, and it offers plenty of amenities. Nestled in the heart of the Smoky Mountains, this resort blends the rugged charm of camping with the laid-back spirit of Margaritaville. We stopped by with a group of 100 RVers for a multi-day rally. This place is big enough to accommodate large groups. RVers will find premium sites designed for comfort and convenience. Spacious pads, full hookups, and stunning mountain views set the tone. And whether you're here for a short weekend or an extended stay, you'll appreciate the outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and modern bathhouses thoughtfully scattered throughout the grounds. But the offerings don't stop at great RV amenities. The resort is bursting with ways to fill your days. Families can splash away at the water park, complete with a lazy river and two-story slide. Meanwhile, the hot tub and private cabanas call to those craving downtime. Hungry? The on-site Fins Bar & Chill serves island-inspired meals you can enjoy with a cocktail by the pool. Or, grab something casual at the coffee shop when you're in a hurry to hit the hiking trails. Speaking of adventures, you're in the ideal spot to explore Pigeon Forge. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is just minutes away, offering countless trails, streams, and scenic overlooks. Or, stick closer to home with a visit to Dollywood or The Island, both just a short trip from the resort. What makes this place truly special, though, is the atmosphere. It's lively yet peaceful, a mix of energy and calm that feels just right. Whether you're traveling solo, with family, or towing along your four-legged friend (yes, it's pet-friendly), Camp Margaritaville caters to all kinds of explorers. For RVers looking for more than just a stopover, this resort is a destination in its own right. We didn't get any pix -- we were too busy socializing. But see our separate review of the nearby Old Mill Restaurant.

    We enjoyed our stay and will be coming back. The good: facilities seemed to be well managed,…read moreclean and at a great location. There is even a trolly stop to get into town from the front entrance. The weekend we were there, it was packed. Even so, the site was easy enough to back into. Tons of campers had their TVs out to watch the game and grilling, but there was little noise and noting disturbed us inside our rig. Kids enjoyed the pool and having fun while many families rented the facilities golf carts to get around the camp. The Bad: The campground is way more packed and has smaller sites than what the photos indicate. You will find it to be congested, especially on the weekends. Also, some sites to not have a dumping capability, you will need to dump at a common site when leaving. All and all, we will certainly be coming back.

We found the campground to be nearly empty. Lazy River Pool was heated and the hot tub was nice to have to ourselves. Showers and bathrooms clean (again, only a handful of campers here). Laundry was $2 each for wash and dry. Enjoyed our stay and will return during warmer weather to experience the Great Smokies (most roads closed during our stay due to icy conditions in the NP)

    I would not recommend this campground to anyone. We checked in today went to the store and came…read morehome to a completely flooded campsite. I cannot walk to my camper door without walking through 6 inches of water, much less sit outside and enjoy an evening of camping with my kids and dogs. I called to talk to the front desk and they said it will recede. Seriously? None of the sites around us have standing water. This site has a drainage issues and it needs to be fixed before someone else has to suffer through staying here. Do not stay on site 82. Update. The pool is nothing like pictured. It looks to be like 20 years old with no maintenance ever. The lazy river has about 5 tubes available to use and it's 95 degrees in there. The gym was closed due to air conditioning issues There is no dog wash anymore even though it shows it on the map. We tried to ask for more stone on our site and they ignored our request. They never even sent maintenance by. Do not stay at this sun outdoors. This is the worse campground I have stayed at in a long time.

    The campground is nice in some ways and aggravating in others…read more The sites seem to be wide. Plenty of room between you and your neighbors. Full hookup is great with no problems. Plenty of water pressure. On to the negative- I've not seen any one of authority come through and enforce rules. No security. We're dog owners and our pups stay on a leash and remain quiet. If you don't mind dogs barking everywhere then this is your place. The gravel sites need to be cleaned up. I think I have found our fire ring over in the weeds. A lot of trash all over our site. The pool area was nice, but this is too big of a campground for one pool area. Very crowded and plenty of adults at the pool using vulgar language around our kiddos. There could also be more benches in the play area for us parents who actually supervise our children. In conclusion, we like our spot. It is very trashy. Buts of garbage everywhere. The fire-pit ring is thrown off in the weeds. A lot could be done to make this place nicer. Straighten up the gravel sites. Spray down the weeds growing though the gravel. Fill in the mud holes from people's driving though the grass. This will be our one and only trip to this campground. Updated** Another example- Our last day, there were some adults at the pool. The conversation told us, these people aren't even staying here. They live up the interstate and come just to swim all day. If we had some kind of staff to check on things, this place would be much nicer and better for the paying campers. A positive is there are a lot of children and it's nice to hear them outdoors and playing.
