Pigeon River Campground

Bigger isn't always better, and this can apply just as equally to RV parks as anything else. If you're heading to Tennessee, consider staying at Pigeon River Campground, a small but quaint RV campground on the banks of the Pigeon River. Here you have the choice of swimming in the river or in the on-site swimming pool; the park also has a seasonal camp store, private restrooms, and a pavilion for group gatherings. Each site has full hookups with 20, 30 or 50 amp electricity, picnic tables, and fire rings, and is large enough to accommodate most larger RV units. When you get here, you can log into the park Wi-Fi and let your family and friends back home know that you made it safely, then sit back and enjoy the quiet solitude and relaxed surroundings in your RV rental.

Once you're settled in and you've had a chance to rest, it's time to see what is so great about Cocke County and the immediate area. In addition to swimming, you can enjoy fishing, horseshoes and volleyball, cornhole, and other activities the park has to offer. Farther out, the mountains and forests provide optimal hiking opportunities, or you can go whitewater rafting or zip-lining, or any combination of the three. Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge offer urban attractions that you'll enjoy such as restaurants or walking tours of either city.
