Would love to hear advice on campgrounds, things to see and do, etc...
One of the things most visitors miss is the drive along the Cherohala Skyway.

This is one of the most scenic roads in Tennessee but most tourist miss it. In N Carolina it's 143 and in Tennessee it's 165. DO NOT go near highway 129 north of 143 in a RV or pulling anything. 129 is known as the Dragon and is great for motorcycles but not RVs. Enjoy your time in East Tennessee.
