Under Canvas Great Smoky Mountains

Awesome experience to stay in nature. Clean comfortable showers, good restaurant, very authentic atmosphere with fire pit

10/10 From the overall quality of the camp location to the staff. Beautiful place to take a break from the fast paced life of screens and social media.

Such a fun experience. We have been to Under Canvas in Zion, Grand Canyon, and Acadia before. This site was super as well. It was spotless and well run. The food and music were nice. It's a bit hard to find as cellular is zippo in this area so be sure to download google maps of the area before you arrive. Our family rented 2 tents and used the community toilets/showers. One member of family was not at all excited about "camping/glamping in the woods" and he was the first to inquire about "Where next?". He loved it! We slept great and hope to return. We are on a roll now though so will likely need to try a new Under Canvas location. Highly recommend. Easy tip: we always bring a small cooler for drinks so we can relax on our own porch at the end of the day before heading up o the group tent.

I'll preface this review by saying I am NOT a camper, and this was really one of the only ways I'd ever stay in a tent, haha. We stayed for a few nights with our family of four - we had a large family tent with shower/bathroom and then a side kids tent. The grounds and accommodations were lovely, the food options in the kitchen were fantastic (although we only had breakfast). We didn't have time to really enjoy the activities, but we loved the communal stuff (games, etc.) and nightly s'mores/fire pit. The staff was accommodating and friendly. The beds were very comfortable and the skylight zip out was a nice touch. If you're into camping I think you'd absolutely love this place! If, like me, you're not a camper but would like to try something like this I think you'd really enjoy it for a brief stay. Beautiful and nicely done!

Our safari tent was a spacious tent with king sized bed & lots of pillows, 2 quad chairs inside tent as well as 2 wood chairs on the deck of the tent. There were 2 small fans that could be used to circulate air & a light on either side of tent to use for reading after dark. The showers & toilets were individually made for privacy & always kept clean by staff. Electrical outlet & a hair dryer was available to use & kept in the linen closet where a supply of clean towels and a hamper for dirty towels is kept. The dining area & food was so good that my husband & I ate supper there each evening of our stay. There were also activities ( for children) & music provided (one evening of our stay). There was an assortment of beer, wine & speciality drinks that could be enjoyed in the evenings as well as delicious desserts. Coffee, tea, water & hot chocolate & morning muffins were also available & at no additional cost. The staff were always friendly as well as knowledgeable about places for walking trails and other areas of interest and the grounds were in pristine shape @ all times. This is a great way to enjoy being outdoors without all the hassle. We hope to enjoy more eco friendly Under Canvas locations in the future.

We got a very comfortable large room as a Gold Honors member. Love the space. Heating and cooling was not quite right as it got hot and cold during the night. The breakfast was great, but foods not as hot as expected, and the coffee was not very hot either. There is remodeling going on so maybe that all will help with a good overnight experience. This Hampton Inn is very easy to get back on the expressway and lots of great places to eat around the area. But the eating experience is another review later. We let the front desk know about the broken bathroom sink stopper. But we both thought the housekeeping should have reported that to maintenance before the room was given out to another guest. Front desk lady was very personable and friendly, loved talking to her. We would definitely stop there again on our travels while in the area.

Loved our stay here. The tents are sturdy and really nicely done. Bed was normal bed, there was a wooden floor, and the tent was very clean. There was an extra tarp over the tent so that rain would not be a problem and a wood stove for colder weather. The common area tent was fun with activities nightly, including live music, great food, friendly staff, firepits every night, and portable lunches for hiking. Very remote and no wifi or cell while in camp so be prepared for that. Would highly recommend.

Amazing spot where you can find peace and solitude just outside of red neck Vegas! Lots of great activities, food and fun. Everyone I interacted with was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Thank you guys for making my moms birthday so special. Decorating the tent, free dessert and happy birthday from the musician really made the stay memorable. Y’all have out done yourselves!

We booked this last minute on the way to Blackberry Farm and it was so fun! Service and tents were great. The property and food were fantastic. We were travelling with a 2.5 year old and I think it will be a core memory. Be mindful of doing this when it’s colder outside - winter camping is no joke lol
