Jody and Sherry Welcome You to Punkin Center

Punkin Center Motorcycle Resort was established in September 2000 by Jody and Sherry Montgomery, natives to the Dragon and the Smoky Mountains. Everything at Punkin Center was built from the ground up by Jody and Sherry. Punkin Center Motorcycle Resort is conveniently located near the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We host many major motorcycle events and rallies throughout the year and this is the perfect place to experience some of the most scenic and best motorcycle touring roads in the country.
We are close to the Cherohala Skyway, the Foothills Parkway, the Blue Ridge Parkway, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Cades Cove, Chilhowee Lake, and the many lesser known treasures waiting to be discovered. Best of all, Punkin Center Motorcycle Resort is only 400 yards off Highway 129 and 9 miles from the start of the Dragon, one of the most famous motorcycle tours in the Eastern U.S.!
Punkin Center Motorcycle Resort is close to all of the action and offers camping facilities ranging from roughing it with tent sites to full service cabins with all of the amenities. Full details about our cabins and campgrounds are located on our RV & camping page.
We are a biker-friendly campground with events geared specifically toward bikers.
We are here to help you enjoy your stay. Our guests are like family to us, and they all get that special treatment.
This will be an adventure you will never forget, so come on by and stay awhile!
—Jody, Sherry, and the Punkin Center Babes
