We had the best time. Stayed in cabin right next to creek. Kids loved playing in water. We tuned all the way from park back to cabin, then sat by warm fire. Couldn't ask for more

Disappointing Experience-Would Not Recommend We booked this campsite for Labor Day weekend and were required to pay for a minimum 3-night stay, even though we only needed two nights. We ended up paying $177 for just two nights — not ideal, but we went along with it. We had pre_booked Site 19, but when we arrived, it was completely exposed to full sun with zero shade. The fire pit and water hookup were located right next to the neighboring tent, offering no privacy whatsoever. We went to the office to ask if we could switch sites. The only option offered was a spot meant for large RVs — again, no shade, no water hookup, and no access to a shower. Oddly, we saw one or two shaded sites still available, but the staff didn’t offer them unless we paid more. The campsites themselves are very small and packed closely together. The restrooms were dark, dirty, and not well maintained. Overall, we were so disappointed that we decided to leave and will not be returning-nor would we recommend this place to anyone. We’ e been to many campgrounds, and unfortunately, this was by far the worst experience.

9-2-2025 Site #15 An honest review of Deep Creek Tube Center and RV Campground. This was an enjoyable Labor Day Weekend. Good: The staff was friendly and not a overly noisy campground. The campground has a rustic wood theme and it is nicely modeled everywhere. The tubes are sturdy and well inflated. The playground amenities for children are wonderful. Bad: The restrooms are NOT up to date and in my opinion, not clean. Now with that being said, if you correlate it with the "rustic theme" then it's ok but I don't believe it's a theme, I believe they are making due with what they have. Which i can't fault them for. Over all, we would come back again if we are in the area.

Stopped by for renting some tubes. Tubes were $8, very clean and sturdy! It took about 5 mins to get to the parking area in the National park. They have plastic strings for tying the tubes, it was helpful. The staffs were friendly and informative!

Deep Creek Campground is mine and my wife's favorite campground. It's in the beautiful smokey mountains and on a gorgeous creek. The camp sites are clean and powered and the bath houses are also clean. The staff is awesome and very friendly. We love the place and camp there twice a year.

We drove down from northwest Indiana and stayed in a primitive campsite right up on the creek. There are laundry and bath houses on site. We had a very comfortable stay. Next time we’ll check out one of the roomy cabins, they look nice!

First time guest, camped for 4 nights… location was great for getting to tube the creek, short distance to the town - so cute ! Restaurants and local shopping. Would highly recommend and I can see more trips in our future !

DCTC&C is a quiet campground nestled in the woods bordered by Deep Creek. Their many campsites and cabins offer something for everyone. My group of a dozen or so guys enjoy three nights of wholesome fun and frivolity in the spring, with so many things to do during the day. We're in our 50s-60s, so cabins suit us best. The camp website provides a great description and pictures of each.

Loved the campground and site except when those who are near you don’t want to follow the rules. We had campers appear all around us, supposedly together, who ran generators until 10:00 p.m., children on skateboards (not allowed), dogs not on a leash, and children running through your campsite with flash lights and screaming at dark. I’m all for children having fun but not in your camp site and when lights are constantly shining through your windows. We even had adults trampling through our camp site headed to the bathroom when there is a perfectly paved road and path that leads to it. Camping is supposed to be fun and peaceful for ALL. Where is the camping etiquette I’ve heard so much about and are the camp grounds being monitored anymore?

Staff: friendly Location: excellent, very close to the city and national park Facilities: decent overall, maybe good if renting cottage. For tenting, the area was nice in general, though it felt like primitive campsite as there was no water faucet in the area and even the bathhouse had no electrical outlets. The hot water turned cold in 2 minutes and then only cold water was available for shower. Activities: gem mining & tubing was closed for the season, goat petting was open. You could try and book the campsites in national park area and maybe better off in terms of facilities.

Absolutely loved this place. Rented River otter cabin which was within steps to the creek!! Was able to listen to the Creek 24/7. Amazing sound!!! I have absolutely no complaints. The cabin was super clean!! The staff was very helpful and polite!! Loved feeding the goats. Very convenient to Town. Will absolutely be staying here again and in the same cabin!!!

Facility is very clean, we loved the playground and feeding the goats. I liked that they had tubes for rent at the campground which was convenient but I would recommend getting them from down the road because the adult tubes don't have a back on them. Which would make your tubing experience much better! Overall loved the campground! We will be back!
