Not just a place to
park for the night

Cooks Campground is more than a stop along New River Highway — it's a place to slow down, breathe deeper, and remember what weekend camping was supposed to feel like.

Along New River Highway

One of Tennessee's most scenic byways — waterfalls, trails, and historic towns just minutes away.

Private & Peaceful

Set back from the road with generous spacing between sites — your neighbors are as quiet as you are.

Family-Owned Since the 1920s

Four generations of the Cook family have welcomed campers here. We know what makes a great outdoor stay.

Right where
the river bends

Situated on New River Highway (US Route 11E), Cooks Campground puts you at the crossroads of East Tennessee's best outdoor adventures — from white-water rafting on the New River to hiking in the Cherokee National Forest.
