We took a Youth Group Family camping trip to Persimmon Creek at the end of September. The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful. My reservation needed to be changed on more than one occasion and they worked with me each time without complaint. The campground was well kept and perfect for our trip. It also has great access to the Ocoee River. We will definitely book another trip soon!

Has a great mix of RV/Camper and primitive sites. Its actually best primitive, campsite I've ever been to. Each site had a picnic table and firepit placed In the fully grassed camping area. The facility has clean restrooms and showers, a pond in the center with a creek running along one side of the camp ground. They have an ample supply of firework for purchase so you don't have to scale the moun... Has a great mix of RV/Camper and primitive sites. Its actually best primitive, campsite I've ever been to.

The facility has clean restrooms and showers, a pond in the center with a creek running along one side of the camp ground. They have an ample supply of firework for purchase so you don't have to scale the mountain side looking for some or the headache of bringing it with you. Would stay here again for sure.

We camped at the end of September and had a great time! The sites are nice and the campground was well kept and quiet. The bath house was clean. There was a nice covered area for grilling and a pond! We would definitely come back to camp again!

If you’re looking for a peaceful, quaint place to camp definitely book here. Spacious sites. We had site #9 and were happy with it. Small pond that’s great for kids wanting to fish. Clean bathrooms and showers. Beautiful creek right on the property. Gravel roads. Our family will definitely be back.

Absolutely awesome rv/campground. Met the owner who was so kind and caring. Staff worker went over and beyond helping me with an issue with electricity at the campsite. Facilities are very clean and maintained twice a day. Campground is small and extremely well kept. Peaceful and serene, especially at my site(13) with Persimmon Creek at the back of many sites. Talk about sleeping great? Listening... Absolutely awesome rv/campground. Met the owner who was so kind and caring.

Peaceful and serene, especially at my site(13) with Persimmon Creek at the back of many sites. Talk about sleeping great? Listening to the flowing creek knocks you right out. Short drive to anything you may need, including: national parks, Ocoee river rafting, Murphy, NC, Blue Ridge, GA. I would give 10 stars if able!! Will definitely be back to enjoy the quiet and peaceful area!!
