Riverstone Campground

I would give 10 plus stars if i could. This is the most amazing place to camp. Christine is an amazing woman. The campers who frequently stay are also phenomenal. Townsend itself has restored my faith in humanity. If you are ever in Tennessee you've got to stay at Riverside Campgrounds. It's a place you'll never want to leave. Or at the very least come to every time you visit Tennessee. Dogs are welcome. Hot showers and great views of the mountains. The river and water fall really puts this place in a league of its own.

Beautiful campground. Clean restrooms/bath houses. Everyone is like family. Christina is amazing! She makes sure everyone feels at home. The river is so relaxing. If you are looking for a laid back place, this is it! Don't expect amenities, like pools or stores; it's not that kind place. The river is your pool.

We were traveling from the Midwest back to Atlanta, GA and wanted to stop and camp overnight near GSMNP. We wanted a clean, safe campground with level sites and a bathhouse. We were not needing extra’s like a camp store, pool, or laundry services. This campground fit our needs perfectly! The manager was a very nice and responsive lady whom we had talked with over the phone that morning and who answered all of our questions. When we arrived we found several sites that would work for our 30ft Class A motorhome. We did disconnect our Jeep as we wanted to drive into the park and ride our bikes through Cades Cove on Wednesday and then go back and drive it the following morning. We used the 30amp electric and water connections but did not need the available sewer connection. The bathhouse is not

During the week, it was quiet and relaxing right on the river front. Small campground with separate tent area. Manager very friendly and accommodating. All sites are full hookup. Most riverfront sites are smaller and won't allow for big rigs. There are sites that will. This campground does not have amenities for children except the river. It's a lovely spot if you like a little extra room. You're not packed in like sardines like the other campgrounds in the area. Prices are more than reasonable, you pay a bit more to be on the riverfront. It's close to all the town attractions.

Let me start by saying, the office staff was very very nice! We have a 26 foot 5th wheel. My husband and I stayed at site#18. It was very nice to hear the waterfall, the water was crystal clear, site had plenty of room. It was very quiet, peaceful and very enjoyable. However, a few opportunities for the owner, the picnic tables are very very old, frankly should be replaced. We didn't even use ours as we were afraid they would break or get splinters. The other big issue was the signage is not lite up at night, so it was very difficult to find the driveway at night. It's very dark! We would definitely return but it would be nice to see a bit more upgrades.
