Riverpark Campground in de Verenigde Staten

A nice park in a very pleasant setting that is several miles from anywhere (which is nice, when that's what you want). Our stay was during the COVID-19 time so the various park facilities were mostly closed. Mostly we just slept at the park and visited family in Johnson City, about 15 to 25 minutes away depending on where in Johnson City you're headed. I expect this would be a great location from which to explore the area, but a grandchild in the area tends to focus one's attentions. We stayed in site 21 which backs onto the park's pond. Next time we'll probably try and pick a site that's away from the pond. The lovely nighttime frog sounds didn't make up for the extra insects, particularly the one small enough to make it through the window screens.

This is one of the best little campgrounds we’ve visited. It’s located right on an exciting section of the Nolichucky River outside of Erwin, TN. The sound of the river offers a relaxing drone 24/7. We were lucky enough to get a sure right on the river and the view is excellent. We’ve watched kayakers take of the river during the day and enjoyed its peace at night, the staff is very friendly and accommodating. This is a small campground, which is how we like it.

This campground has undergone an amazing renaissance, with the new management. The owner's only goal is to have happy campers and they go out of their way to prove that. Do not let this little treasure, directly on the Nolichucky River, get away, based upon reviews under the old management.

We were really looking forward to this campground, even though we didn't have a riverfront site. We were disappointed. Our pull thru site had only a small patch of dying grass, it was mostly rocks and the firepit was a 2 inch high ring set on top of the rocks. The picnic table was almost as wide as our living space. We asked about moving to a riverfront site and received a gruff "All booked." He didn't even bother to look or make any effort. Ends up there were at least two spots on the river that we could fit in and were open our entire stay. The entrance to the park is awkward and it can be a little tight coming around the fence. The gate does not go down and they allow day pass access to the river, day parking is inside the campground. The rapids are an attraction to kayakers and we saw some tubers exiting at the campground. The river is beautiful, and if you have a riverfront site you will most likely love this place. The riverfront sites are mostly rock, but have a real firepit set into the rocks with a grill. We would sit each night at one of the empty riverfront sites with our glass of wine and enjoy the sound of the rapids, we never sat outside of our depressing site. Our site was fairly level and most the others looked level. We had decent At&T signal, but the wifi was good enough to use. We didn't use the bathhouse or laundry. The roads in the campground are a little tight for big rigs, but most will be able to make it. Sites 28 - 34 on the river are the best. Sites 20 and 21 back up to a rather stagnant looking pond. The one pull thru that I would consider is 23. It has a nice grassy area for living space. Sites 30 and 31 are probably the best sites in the place. All riverfront sites are 30 amp. I would stay here again, but only at a riverfront site or site 23. It was so disappointing to not have an outdoor space that we could enjoy when it was such a beautiful location.
