Awesome campground located next to beautiful Greeter Falls and Savage Gulf. It’s less than a half mile to the trailhead! They had a burger stand that was top notch, which comes in handy after a long hike. The bathrooms were super clean and the camp store was loaded with drinks and snacks. We rented a yurt that was spacious and the cot mattress was comfortable. Everyone at the campground we met was super friendly and we’ll be planning a trip back soon!

We stayed in Area B Yurt Village. It was a very nice set-up. Be aware the yurts are very close together but the private tables & fire pits were a great bonus. The beds were very comfy, with nice mattress covers. Bring bug spray since you are very much in the woods. It’s very close to the trailhead, easy walking distance. Facility owners are great, very helpful. We would love to come back soon! This is an incredibly beautiful and fun spot in TN.

We are seasoned campers that have stayed in a lot of both private and public campgrounds over the years. We chose Greeter Falls campground because of its location for our mini vacation. It has some awesome trails and waterfalls within a few minutes drive which we enjoyed. It is an hour from Ruby Falls, Rock City and also the Lodge Factory in Pittsburg TN. It is tucked away in a remote area which we like. The staff and people we talked with were all super friendly and helpful. The only negative aspect was that the Campground is still a work in progress, the sites were smaller than I expected and situated in some awkward places that were not very level which may pose a problem if you pull and larger camper. Also, there were more staff living at the campsites than actual people camping. All in all our experience was good, the people were friendly, and we had a great time in Tennessee.Nearby activities: Greeter Falls, Lodge factory, Stone Door trail, Ruby Falls, Rock City Gardens.Walkability: Lots of great trails around with waterfalls, rock formations, etc within a few minutes of the campground.

Edit: we truly appreciate the campground doing what they can to make it right and reaching back out to us. Thank you. Changing my rating from 2-4. It truly is a lovely place to stay and if we choose to in the future I'm sure we'll have a better experience.We chose the glamping in The Village because we're a large family and there's not many places that can accommodate us so well. It's great setup with comfy beds and plenty room for an extra cot or two and would be great for family/friends get-togethers... I'll add that in warmer weather, when you can run the provided fan it would easily drown out the dogs barking at night. If you are not a fan sleeper you might want to find a different area on the campground if continuous barking would bother you. We were able to stay much warmer in the military tents than we would have in our traditional family tent.I really, truly wish that I could leave a better review given the campground is set up top notch and it's the best maintained I've ever been to. It would easily be 5 stars if we could sleep. However, at our site, we're surrounded by neighbors of the campground who have dogs that bark for hours upon hours without ceasing and all through the night. (We do understand that there isn't much they can do about that, although the sleeplessness added to tensions for other shenanigans.) After 2 nights of this it's raining and we just knew it would drown out the dogs or they would be hiding. It definitely did....but now a big group of people came in and their party is not stopping. Playing loud music and hooting and hollering until well after quiet hours and just not winding down at all. They partied until after 1am. I went up to the camp store to see if there's any kind of after-hours number posted. There's not. The sign says they're not available after hours. This has not been a restful trip at all and for $400+ it's been nearly a waste other than seeing the falls. We could have just made a day trip for that and been able to sleep at home. I will say, the staff that I have met seem wonderful. Just not being available at night when guests are not respecting quiet hours is an absolute deal breaker for me.

My friends and I came here for our spring break trip and had an amazing time!! We camped at one of the deluxe camp sites, which had everything we needed! The bathhouse bathrooms were spotless every time we went to shower! The hikes around the area are gorgeous and accessible! Definitely recommend camping here!

Last summer at our 50th reunion we hatched a plan to visit our classmates campground in Tennessee. Two weekends ago we pulled it off and met at Greeter Falls for 3 nights. What a great spot!The location was stunning with awesome falls and hiking trails nearby. The campground itself, although only a few years in existence, was well thought out and in great shape. The newly erected buildings were perfect and the bathhouse was very clean. Our yurt was also clean, dry, and warm (the nights were getting cool).To go with that, the entire staff was pleasant and eager to please. Good people. Highly recommended 👍🏼Nearby activities: Many great photo ops

Walking distance to the beautiful hikes in and around Greeter Falls and the campgrounds were well kept and clean. It was late-Fall, so not very crowded, but we had a great time with 5 kids under 11 and they loved playing around the play area.Looking forward to another visit soon!

This is a great campground close to Savage Gulf hiking and waterfalls! Privately run and well maintained yet not super fancy. I really liked how they kept most of the trees in the camping areas which makes it feel like you’re really outdoors and not at some overdeveloped RV park. Great camping option for a family with children. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Bathrooms were nice and clean. Was very quiet after dark. Veterans discount was a nice bonus!Nearby activities: Savage Gulf, waterfalls, lots of hiking.

NO WATER ACCESS WHEN TEMPS ARE BELOW FREEZING. We camped here in Jan. The camp host literally padlocked our water spigot and disconnected our hose when the temperatures dropped to 31 before we could even fill our fresh water tanks. They advertise as a “full hookup” and open all year long, but they are not equipped to provide water throughout the winter and the act very rude when you confront them about it. We had to check out a day early because we didn’t have water. They do not inform you of this prior to arrival. Also, it’s VERY dark when you come into the campground at night. And a neighboring dog barks constantly. Not a pleasant experience for us and the rude campsite host do not make it better.

Nice campground, very friendly lady at the office. Quiet, near the falls loop trail. We were disappointed that the drought had caused there to be zero “falls” but that certainly wasn’t the fault of the campground! Would absolutely stay there again. A bit remote but the roads to and from are great and the fall colors were beautiful.Walkability: Easy walk from campground to the trailhead.

This is the cutest campground. They have little cabins that contain the office, a kitchen that you can buy food like chicken tenders, hot dogs, breakfast foods, etc. A larger cabin with arts and craft activities. The buildings and common areas are lit up with pretty lights. The people that own the campground and the people that work there are all very kind, helpful and friendly. I enjoyed my stay there very much.

Location was amazing really close to hikes. The military tent that we stayed in was a little disappointing it was a little overpriced for what we got there’s no water at the site and the lady at the office said we could just use one of the other rv sites for water but they were all being used and we didn’t feel right asking them she also said we could use the water by the office but we weren’t expecting to have to carry water because the description lead on like we would have water on the site. The tent leaked even though we only had a minor rain. We thought about lighting the wood heater inside but it was full of ashes. Just would expect a lot more for the price. The tent door doesn’t close properly so if you bring a dog it’s a little annoying.

Awesome experience overall! We had a large group of 8 adults and 4 kiddos and we were all completely accommodated. We rented the 16’ yurts and loved the campsite format. It was neat in that you could have a shared campfire space or do individual campfires/picnic tables, if you’re not with a larger party. The yurts made it much easier than having to set up tents while chasing children around. All of the yurts had electricity. Just a short walk to multiple porta-potties. We appreciated that a staff member would drive around the campsites to offer fire wood during the evening…very convenient. The camp store was small, but definitely got the job done. The bath/showerhouse was clean. Close enough to the Falls that it can be hiked and TOTALLY worth the hike. I strongly encourage y’all to check out this campground. We’ll be returning for sure!!

Stayed here after a few changes of plans and was very pleasantly surprised at how great the park was. They have places for RV's, yurts to rent out, car camping and primitive camping, all of which had thick forest tops above that really helps keep down the temperature in the heat. Beautiful nature all around and the campgrounds are just .25 miles from the trailheads. Beautiful trails, great waterfalls and great people. Every other hiker/camper we met was very friendly and that made me and my friends (who are fairly new to camping) feel very at home. Hardly any light pollution so you can really see the stars too. Great cell service and easy to find your way around. As a Tennessee native I was surprised I had never been before, but will definitely be back.

This was our first time at Greeter Falls. It’s a very clean park, restrooms were immaculate, staff was very friendly and helpful and our site was very roomy and easy to get in with our 40’ fifth wheel. It was easy access to get there from Chattanooga. It’s within walking distance to Greeter Falls State Park which is full of waterfalls and a swimming hole. If you like camping in the mountains, you’ll love this park. We will return for sure!

Just pulled out of site 43 from spending 9 days at this campground. The area is amazing and in walking distance to some beautiful hiking, Greeter Falls Trailhead. Shower houses are clean and easily accessible. If you are looking for seclusion beautiful views, and wildlife then this is the perfect place for you. There is a dollar general market 5-8 minutes away. Not many restaurants close by but we didn't get out and explore all that much. There was a restaurant close by in their quaint little town. We did venture to Chattanooga for 3 days to go to the zoo and aquarium, Lookout Mountain, Ruby Falls, see Rock City, etc. The drive is easy and BEAUTIFUL. Other trailheads are close so you can easily make a day of hiking and seeing other trails, or just enjoy Geeter Falls!

Great place to camp - loved the yurt! Close to Greeter Falls. It's a beautiful area to hike that both my wife and our dogs thoroughly enjoyed. Cleanest bath house I've ever seen. Would definitely return.

We stayed in a full service campsite for three nights. Quiet, clean, shaded and short walk to awesome waterfall trails. Also drove about 20 minutes to hike Fiery Gizzard with even more wild flowers, waterfalls and swimming holes in these beautiful smoky mountains gorges.May make this a rejuvenating annual pilgrimage!

The experience staying here was Amazing! All the areas have decent amount of space to set up tents. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful for what we needed. Stargazing here was amazing. It is about a mile hike to the waterfalls and it was worth it. Just be sure to reach by daylight so that you can set up your tents with ease. We were late and being inexperienced campers we were given extra lantern lights! Also the camp toilets were extremely clean!
