Roamstead was born on a family RV trip across the country. Our founders noticed their glamorous plans often ended in glorified parking lots or dirty campgrounds without amenities or thought regarding design. Alongside that, many campgrounds seemed unapproachable to those who hadn’t been before. A vision was born to reinvent 'roughing it' in a way that could welcome all adventurers to experience the magic of the great outdoors. We believe the beauty of nature should be experienced by everyone. It's good for your health, and the more we connect with and learn about the outdoors, the more we'll feel compelled to protect it. Whether you've been camping all your life or this would be your first trip, we're here for you. We aim to build a bridge (you know, a metaphorical one) to the great outdoors, where all adventures can truly feel welcome. Roamstead is committed to making our outdoor spaces accessible to everyone. At our Smoky Mountains location, we're partnering with Friends of the Smokies to do just that. Friends assists the National Park Service in its mission to preserve and protect the Great Smoky Mountains National Park by raising funds and public awareness, and providing volunteers for needed projects. They restore trails, build handicap accessible access points, and provide urban youth educational opportunities in the park, to name just a few of their many projects. A dollar of each stay at Roamstead Smoky Mountains is donated back to Friends of the Smokies to help continue their mission.

Definitely worth a visit!
We had a great time at Roamstead! Our camping site was beautiful, level, large, well prepared and taken care off and with the stream right behind us we had the most beautiful view. The bathrooms are spacious, clean, good-smelling, and the showers have shampoo, conditioner and body wash included! There is a lounge with coffee, some hot meals, even beers and beautiful apparel. My husband worked remotely in the upstairs area, there is good WI-FI everywhere and the community areas are beautiful and very modern. They have programs of things to do over the weekend, there are nice trails that you can access directly from the campground and they have fun backyard games as well. This has quickly become one of our favorite campgrounds and we will certainly be back!

It’s a bit tight with a larger unit. My camper is 34’ long with slides. I moved over not to be on top picnic table of the couple next to me. The power, water and sewer were right next to their table too. I did my best to cover it for their experience. The campsite and store are amazing. I will certainly be back but will stay in a site with a bit more space. I would certainly recommend the campground.
