Deep Creek trails has to rank among the top three best hiking trails I have hiked! The trails are very well maintained and are easy to access. The waterfalls are spectacular and while we didn’t go tubing there were plenty of people who did. The entire area is absolutely gorgeous and teeming with wildlife. Can’t wait to hike there again.

Site #55 - Slight incline. Nice site. Restrooms were clean but no hot water. No soap dispensers for washing hands or towels to dry. Very nice campground though and a very nice lady park ranger to greet you and to explain everything. T-Mobile (US Cellular) had a consistent 2 bars of coverage.

Deep Creek is a beautiful and wide body of water, perfect for relaxing and enjoying nature. It’s especially great for sitting on tubes and just letting the current take you along, such a peaceful and fun experience. I had a wonderful time here and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing outdoor adventure.

Deep Creek Campground provides access to the southern portion of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This location has access to numerous trails, and plenty of campsites. You will find a parking pass kiosk near the bathrooms if you aren’t planning on camping.

Quiet with plenty of space between the RV sites, surrounded by hiking trails and waterfalls. Tent sites are next to the creek in close proximity to one another and great for groups. No hookups at the sites, but the campground has a dump station and water as you exit the park. Bathrooms are simple and very clean, cold water only, no showers. Cell signal is good.
