Whispering River Resort
If you’re looking for a classy campground with the Smokey Mountains in view, drive right into Whispering River Resort and be wowed by the home-away-from-home atmosphere.
Set on forty acres with scattered trees for shade and a river that runs right through the campground, you can pitch a tent and look forward to sleeping in a woodland ambiance with a chorus of country sounds. RVers can expect full hook-ups to electricity (30/50 amps), water, sewer, and free Internet.
Big rigs are welcome with easy access to sites on a level gravel pad with a grassy surround. Each campsite is generously equipped with a fire-ring and picnic table. The views of the infamous Smokey Mountains are magnificent and a drawcard to all nature lovers and hikers wanting to explore the exciting mountain trails.
With plentiful land-space, the park offers an RV storage service and an assortment of plush cabins, if that is your camping preference The Lodge is a two-story deluxe accommodation that sleeps ten people and features hotel-style facilities including a hot-tub with a porch overlooking the river. There are two other cabins on the water’s edge, offering a cozy fireplace, kitchen, and Jacuzzi.
Life’s a holiday at Whispering River resort where dogs can come with their family for the summer break. In a camp this size, it’s important that pooches be good doggy citizens and stay on-leash. Owners are expected to pick up after their pets and not allow them in the camp buildings or cabins. A leisurely walk along Little River is a great escape for woofers and their guardians.
It’s well recorded this RV resort has friendly, helpful staff with a well-maintained landscape plus clean restrooms and showers. There is also a coin-operated laundry for campers' convenience along with a store swimming pool and super-cool kid’s playground. The camp also boasts an event center, club room, and some of the best walking trails for beginners. The Porters Creek Trail is great for die-hard hikers who love a real challenge.
Whispering River RV Resort sits on the west side of the Smokey Mountains - some call it the quieter side as it’s a more rural overview where folks come to unwind from the rigors of everyday life and get back to nature.
Eight miles from the camp is Townsend, a cruisy little town where you can take the kids to The Great Smoky Mountains Heritage Center or go "Cowboy Tubing" on Little River.
