Reviews
Elkmont Campground offers a beautiful natural setting with convenient access to hiking trails and the river, making it a popular choice among campers. Reviewers consistently praise the cleanliness of the facilities and the friendly staff, contributing to a peaceful atmosphere at night. However, many note the lack of privacy between sites and the absence of shower facilities, which may be a drawback for some.

Overall, Elkmont is a well-maintained campground that provides good value for those looking to enjoy the outdoors.
