Extended Stays in the Smoky Mountains

Our long-term program is designed for guests who will occupy their RV site as their primary campground residence during the approved term. Stays begin with a two-month commitment, and approved dates may extend up to 12 months.
Long-term placement is limited and application-based. A phone interview or in-person appointment helps us confirm that the site, the RV, and the community are a good match.
