Honeysuckle Meadows RV Park

This park was absolutely amazing. It’s quiet and peaceful. There birds singing all day long are just lovely. The staff is easy going and super helpful. The park is very spread out with larger than normal rv spots. We had a spot by a busy road but we loved the privacy and view so much we didn’t move. This is a great rv park if you are looking for a peaceful quiet stay only 10 min from one of the entrances to the national park and only 30 min from the sugarlands visitor center. It was too cold for swimming, otherwise the pool would have been fun! Pigeon forge wasn’t our scene but it’s only a beautiful 20-30min drive. There are no facilites or laundry on the property which didn’t bother us. We would absolutely come back here!!

Campsite had a deck and covered roof.

We were very pleased with this campground. The sites are much larger than average and many had beautiful views! It is about 7 minutes from Great Smoky Mountain National Park (Metcalf Bottoms area). There are no bathrooms or laundry facilities, which wasn't an issue for us since we are fulltimers. Some of the sites are "pull-in" meaning you have to pull in and disconnect the truck in the grass, then drive it back to behind your rig. We thought this was a little odd (and would be a pain if it was muddy), no one seemed bothered by this. It's just not something we've seen too often.

We had 3 bars with Verizon, but with antennae we had full service. There is a pool, but it's also open to the public, so it's crowded. Nightly rate is $40, but they have a lot of deals (Example: Stay 14 nights, get 3 free... stuff along those lines). Overall, we'd stay here again. We were at site 44 and think it was one of the best sites in the park.

We stayed in spot 49 and had an excellent experience. The spots were very large and had a wonderful wood deck with picnic table and umbrella. The fire pit was located just down in front in the grass. No bath house or laundry. Pool was nice and concession bar was actually pretty good. The pool is included for campers but is open to the public so it can get busy. About a mile away to the entrance of the Smoky Mountains/Metcalf Bottoms and about 20 minutes outside of pigeon forge.

Very nice place and reasonably priced.
Only issue is it is a little distant from town but, that is part of what I like about it.
Beautiful views.
Close to foothills parkway.
Reasonable drive to the Smokey mountains.
Don’t be afraid to Explore the back roads to avoid the traffic jams in pigeon forge and Gatlinburg.
There are no bath houses or laundry Facilities in the rv park. So be prepared for that.

If you’re looking to get out of the craziness of Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg/Sevierville, head west on 321 and visit Honeysuckle Meadows campground in Wears Valley, TN. What it lacks in some amenities (no bathhouse/clubhouse) it makes up for in beauty and friendliness. The staff were very accommodating when we had to make changes to our schedule and were very helpful in all our dealings.

If you can get sites down at the base of the hill in the open valley, those are definitely the prime locations. We were in Site 38 at the top of the hill in the woods. It’s nice, to be sure, but not nearly as beautiful as those in the “valley”.

There are sites that might be too small/tight for big rigs, but the majority can handle and size. The grounds are impeccably kept and the pool and snack bar are a nice touch. There is also a small fishing pond (catch and release).

Wears Valley has a modest amount of infrastructure, with general stores and small mom and pop restaurants. Pigeon Forge is about 13 miles east and Townsend is about 7 miles west. But the views of the mountains in Wears Valley are outstanding.

The campground has wifi, but it’s your typical campground internet (somewhat responsive during the day but clogged up at night) and they also provide cable.

We will definitely return here, but I would definitely target site 24 and others down in the lower part of the campground.

Very spacious park and well maintained. We parked with a 40' fifth wheel on No. 9. With the layout, you had to pull in and do some zig-zags to move the trailer over numerous feet to the hookups which made it awkward in maneuvering a 40' 5'er, then subsequently doing the same to then get it backed back out. Would not recommend a 40' for No. 9, otherwise, the other sites looked very maneuverable. Great views and definitely will return. We use C-Spire and had great coverage.

We loved this campground! It is beautiful, quiet, spacious and near tons of things to do.

You can tell the owners really care and can see extra touches around the campground.

The only reason I didn’t put 5 stars was that there is no bath house or laundry, otherwise this place is fantastic!

I really liked this park. I'm not really a huge fan of the craziness of Pigeon Forge. This is a great value. I have a blog post as well as a video that I will be linking to this park in the coming weeks. Can't say enough good things about it.

I am hesitant to write this review as I don't want to give this place up!! It is outside the hustle and bustle of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg but close enough to enjoy all the Smokies has to offer. The sites are large and spaced out. Not sure you can find that anywhere else around the Smokies! The pool is nice with a deli attached to it. If you are looking for great views and a quite place to camp with full hook ups --- look no further. Next time we camp in the Smokies we will stay here!
