Paint Creek Campground, Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee

  I love Paint Creek--been going there for several years---I like the peaceful atmosphere-the friendly folks and the fellowship Says John Long

My husband, daughter and I absolutley love Paint Creek! It is so peaceful. The trees offer privacy not found in many campgrounds and the creek provides swimming, fishing, and fun for the family. We bike and have a wonderful time. It is so cool there all year around and a perfect place to camp in a tent, pop-up or larger camper. We love it! Says Amanda
