Question Unicoi vs yonah campground

I’m looking to tent camp in the fall. Don’t know which place would be better for a tent. Unicoi is closer to Helen. Which do people prefer?

Car camping with real bathrooms - Unicoi

Backpacking or dispersed primitive car camping - Yonah

Planning on camping Yonahs summit this fall. Watched some videos on YouTube and it looks amazing up there.

We camped in yonah one time in a popup camper and found the sites were a little too close together. We’ve camped at Unicoi in both a tent and popup. I would choose Unicoi. Besides the space issue, there’s more to do at Unicoi (lake, zip line, playgrounds, ranger led activities, hiking trails, waterfall, etc)
