I absolutely love the Blue Ridge Parkway on a MOTORCYCLE. I don't think I would be happy towing our 30' toy hauler trailer on it for any distance. You have the right area for a nice 2 week camping trip heading south into TN, NC, and VA. You have 3 choices for camping near the Smokies - Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area, Townsend TN, or Cherokee, NC. If you can do without hookups for your stay, camp in one of the National Park campgrounds. If you want extreme touristy area, head to Gatlinburg, otherwise Townsend. There are numerous parks we love in the area. Indian Boundary NF campground near Tellico Plains, TN, Roan Mountain SP in TN, Bandy Creek NF near Oneida, TN, My suggestion is to stay 3 or more nights wherever you choose so you can enjoy the area. Enjoy!
