Loved it. Amazing and beautiful area. Crowded at times but we came in during a rain storm leftover from a hurricane so had plenty spots to choose from. It gets cold up there, our visit on 1st week of october, one day in town for supplies it reached 55°f but by time we got back to the top of the mountain it was 38. Mid day. Not taking into account the wind chill cause the wind does not stop up there so be prepared. Closest town for supplies is about 45 min away, 30 of those is just the climb up the mountain. No potable water but there is a spring to get water form for cleaning and bathing, sign suggests boiling or treating water for any potable use.

While it's rough getting to Dolly Sods wilderness, the campgrounds themselves are easy to get to themselves, and it's just a short walk to the Black bird Knob trail with other just a short drive away. There's only 12 sites on the ring and no attendant to take payments for sites only a board at the entrance with pay envelopes for cash or check and a spot to drop off envelopes. Never saw a park ranger while on site but it's orderly and clean and the vault toilets had plenty of toilet paper stocked in them. Just don't expect being able to restock supplies at a lil store on site and you will be good to go.

Great spot! The campsites are first come, first serve, so it’s a roll of the dice on whether or not there will be any available on the weekend. We got there around 3pm on Friday and snagged the last one. Plenty of people drove through after looking for spots. Access points to a number of hikes nearby and plenty of trees to throw up a hammock. There is no water out there so make sure you bring enough!!

Great campground @ $11/day. Sites are close together but still offer privacy. Two Compost type restrooms available which are clean and stocked with TP. Bear Creek trailhead is within 100m. Get there by 4pm if you want a choice location.

It was bone-chillingly cold that day with winds so strong that I could not keep myself standing. But the the scenic view of the place makes it worht it! Also a large part of the inner road is raw with rocks and potholes and muddy. Do be careful when you drive up there and try to use a car suited for rough terrain!
