Might want to try a nice little campground we stayed at the week before last in Gatlinburg and see if they have a vacancy. It was relatively close in to town and had everything we needed. It was clean, reasonably priced and well managed and on good road that can take you north to I-40 when your done.
Camping In the Smokies at 1640 East Parkway. Has good reviews.
The DW and I have rather given up on Cherokee as after 40 years of visiting the Smokies several times a year we have had enough. Yes there are a few things to see there and a trip from Gatlinburg over to Cherokee for a day trip is worth the ride. But Cherokee has fallen off our list as a destination, while the park remains very special to us. While we love the National Park we had been getting a bit weary of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge as we kept looking for a cruise ship to dock at any moment :) But our stay at Camping in the Smokies was pleasurable and made for an enjoyable easy stay.
