Great information. My parents live in Waynesville NC- very close to the east entrance. Can’t wait to check it out…plus lots of NF lands bumping up to the NP which provides some dispersed camping- but not nearly as much as out west!

I love the Smokys and totally agree with your choice of the 3 campgrounds for first time visitors! The whole park is incredibly beautiful. 🏕️
