Tent camping for 17 years here
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 8/1/07
Our family has been camping at LeConte Vista for 17 years. The owners live at the top of the hill (not in a trailer). They are much older now. Their son, Tim, is the day to day manager. The people who live in the trailer are hired to help with maintenance during the summer months, and not much else.
The place has changed over the years, but for location-- on the bus line-- and value, we would not go anywhere else. This is the only campground that still accepts families in tents this close to town. The town is slowly coming out to meet the campground now with the wide lanes highway in front and the high school just over the hill.
