River Valley Campground

We got there at 2 o’clock no water on the side that we are camping on. We didn’t get water till 6 o’clock. There was no Internet Thursday Friday. We got Internet Saturday. The people were very pleasant. Did not use the public restrooms had been raining. The ground was completely saturated water puddles everywhere on our site

Me and my husband and kids camped here several years ago. Sitting at the dinner table tonight, you know we still talk about how horrible this place was. The location is great- other than there’s not a lot of cell phone signal- definitely talking about what everybody else is talking about on here- Some of the rudest people I think I’ve ever been around! We have since camped at Cherokee camp ground, bradleys and another one down there with a little church on site. All great. Do yourself a favor and drive down the mountain— altitude is messing with these people clearly. I wouldn’t camp there again if it was zero dollars per night!

I absolutely love this campground. Very friendly staff and great locals. I have been going here for family vacations for over 10 years and this campground never disappoints. River Valley Campground is very beautiful and sits right next to a nice river. Allows for tent camping, as well as, campers. If you have a choice try and get a campsite on the river side because listening to the river in the middle of the night is a dream. Highly recommend staying here!!!

We’ve stayed at this campground for three years straight and have enjoyed it every time. Wonderful location and clean camp ground. This last visit was a little disappointing. A employee in a golf cart approached ya multiple times and was extremely rude. We do our best to be polite respectful campers as we have 3 young boys camping with us. But the way this employee handled situations was embarrassing and uncomfortable. I politely brought this to the attention of the lady at the front desk and she immediately defended him and threatened to charge me 5 dollars for staying 2 minutes after 12. Again we have 3 boys under the age of 7. Not always smooth packing up and leaving. I really hope the owner sees this and makes the Necessary changes to fix this. I hate to not want to stay at s

Clean, quiet spot. The staff were amazing and helpful. They ran us around in a golf cart to assist us in picking the perfect spot for our 31 foot RV, and treated us with respect our entire stay. We got a spot right next to the river with power and water/sewer, and had a fantastic time. The elk in the area were out by the dozens, so that was a plus. The showers were clean, although small, and the restrooms were clean and well-maintained. We will certainly return our next trip through the Smokies, and definitely recommend River Valley to friends & family.
