Up to it camper
For Big Ridge State Park: Stayed 2 nights
Weather Rainy (mid 60芒鈧劉s) pleasant for mid March
Roads narrow like most campgrounds but with the added challenges of compensatory measures in place. ie logs, fences, and Big Rocks places to protect the park, however they are not camper/vehicle friendly. ie if you芒鈧劉ve never been to this campground it not advisable to roll in after dark or else you could ruin your camping trip before it gets started.
Campsite #25
Probably the worst to back into bc steep hill on one side Big Rock on the other. All campsites are back in only 1 pull through which is a Handicap site.
Water: frostless spigot - 45 psi - (normal) the spigot is on wrong side for most all campers ie when I walked out of my camper/ off my campsite, I had to step over the supply hose. The Park had a line break on Sat about lunch time, they got right on, it but it took several hours to fix. Repair crew equipment blocked off road. You could leave/get back in, but it was a pain.
Electric both 30/50 amp. Power guard had 2 green lights all weekend.
No sewer hook up only dump station
Set up: in order to park vehicle on campsite the had to be placed with stabilizers half on /half off pavement.
Decently level 3/4芒鈧 boards under wheel on downhill side.
Bathhouses 2 each decently clean
Showers yes but no I did not nor would I use.
Trash: dumpster at entrance to campground.
Foliage: trees some underbrush (about normal) if your a hammock person then be selective with campsite or be flexible.
Dump station: one and only one be prepared to wait on Sunday.
Amenities: Trails are a trek, to get to trail head from campground either drive to trail head or add 2 miles to hike. No trail map provided even after I asked. There was a big tear you one off pad on the counter down from the register, it was free after I pointed to it and said could I have one. No park map either I was provided with an 8 1/2芒鈧 X 11芒鈧 sheet after I requested, the attendant looked like okay, but that was my copy, & now I芒鈧劉ll have to print another. The Pool is closed due to pandemic. Playground is a trek and in Rec area, so it芒鈧劉s a free-for-all. Lots of folks on bicycles. Helmet rules apply. Pets lots and lots of dogs not one cat that I saw. Leash rules apply. Fishing and paddling are available looks like it芒鈧劉s a bring you own kinda thing. Lake was down low but it芒鈧劉s March so summer lake levels won芒鈧劉t be around till June or so.
Services: don芒鈧劉t count on ordering pizza because you didn芒鈧劉t catch your dinner be prepared because it芒鈧劉s a 15 mile trek. Fuel seems to be the same so stock up in your way in, that is IF you芒鈧劉re the I芒鈧劉m going camping not shopping type.
Summary: All in all it芒鈧劉s a mid range campground not bad /not good seems to be popular with the locals, as it was almost sold out in mid-March. I am here to check off another TN RV campground so I芒鈧劉ll not be back unless it芒鈧劉s just a overnight stop on my way to a destination. Nothing bad to say about the place nothing to brag about either.

For Big Ridge State Park: This campground needs better management. It has so much potential but they don芒鈧劉t clean the bathrooms very well. The laundry room was dirty, half the machines didn芒鈧劉t work or worked properly. The sights are not real level. Dump station was the worst we have ever used. It did have good tv and Verizon coverage. Did have a lot of hiking. Really to bad the state doesn芒鈧劉t look into their campgrounds to make sure they are run better. We camped in site 31.

For Big Ridge State Park: Spots are decent sized. Not to terribly close. The lake and hiking are wonderful and worth the stay. Bathroom/shower house #3 needs a remodel. Was very run down and dirty but bathroom/shower house #1 was decent.

For Big Ridge State Park: Many small sites here. Turns are tight for bigger rigs. Clean place. Staff is on the ball.
