| I did not camp within the Smoky Mountains park area due to the fact none of the parks campground bathhouses had showers. I was attending a two day wood carving class in Townsend, TN and did not want to go into class each day smelling like one of the local black bears. However, I did find a very nice private campground less than a mile from the Cades Cove park entrance. Little River Village Campground is family owned/operated and very nice. The campground had one of the nicest bath facilities I have come across. I was pleased to find a very nice site right on the banks of the Little River that flows down from the Smoky's. I have a link at the bottom of this page to both the campground and the woodcarving class I attended. |
