The grounds were well maintained, as well as the bathrooms and showers. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Easy drive to all the lovely sights the Smokies have to offer.

I recommend having an entrance light on in the evenings so people can find the turn off from the highway. I would also recommend lighting in the campground at night as well. On the highway in both directions I would recommend KOA signs so people know where the KOA is located. Overall stay was great and the facilities were very nice. Just need some lighting.

We love staying at Gatlinburg east campground. The only suggestion I have is the showers need cleaning more than once a day and the washing machine need deodorizing. They have an order in them.

Campgroung and staff were great. Staff was very friendly and so helpful. Grounds were well maintained. Additional lighting at entrance and signage on roadway would be very helpful. We loved our campsite until a very large motor home pulled next to us and our picnic table and firepit were next to their open windows.

People were super nice. Restrooms were the best at any campground we have ever been to. They need ability to fill propane tanks (they said by next season). It is a little far out from Gatlinburg but quiet.

Always a pleasure. The changes since the change in ownership seem positive, although I have no complaints from the past.

Super friendly and helpful staff. Very well maintained campground. It can be a little tight, so let them help you pull in, back in or hooking up. We loved the paper they gave us at check in that gave you directions and info on nearby stores,Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and other attractions and how far away things were. It may not be a 5 star resort, but it's a 5 star campground.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the staff was very helful. The expansion at the campground since last year seemed to be quite an uplift for the KOA itself. The only complaint I'd have would be that the cable DID NOT WORK AT ALL! After our neighbrs had one of the KOA helpers out to fix thier cable, it still didn;t work. Halloween was a blast though!

Clean spacious sites, excellent hookups. Great location for access to hiking trails in the Cosby area. Although we did not take advantage, there are a lot of events to participate in if that's your desire.

Site was wonderful, restrooms/showers are immaculate, staff friendly and helpful. Reasonably priced firewood and ice. Great location- we will be back next year!

Facility is great with the new expansion and all however there really needs to be more control over the pets in the park. We had a fairly quiet site with a little bit of road noise but people who bring their dogs and then leave them to bark in their trailer the entire day is not acceptable and disruptive to the surrounding campers. Very disappointed that the staff did not hear this going on.

This campground was the best campground I have ever stayed at. The people were very accommodating, and lots of additional things were offered to the campers. Definitely will be back.

3rd year in a row we have spent a fall week in smokies at koa east Gatlinburg. Have love it every time. Staff always friendly and helpful. Jeremy us wonderful at helping back in camper and any other problems you may have while there. Same with all the other staff members. And it’s the most colorful campground in smokies in the fall. Can’t say enough good things about koa east gatlinburg

We loved staying at the Gatlinburg East/Smoky Mountain KOA. The park was nice with a lot of trees. We had grandkids with us and we all enjoyed the nature hikes and the game room. We will definitely come back next time we come to the Smoky Mountains.

Loved staying here. Quiet, relaxing, and the staff was so friendly. Lots of things going on over the weekend (smores, crafts, snow cones, etc) and even had a vist from the ice cream truck!!

Probably one of the nicest campground we have ever stayed. Meticulous grounds, nice, helpful staff, and a large pool and playground for the kids. And a dog park for the fur kids. Highly recommend!

Wonderful experience at this KOA. We booked an RV site during the week so we could work weekdays while visiting the Smokies. Everything was perfect. Even though we have Starlink, our Verizon also worked beautifully. Their restrooms/showers are 1000% better than most campsites. Each shower/toilet is unisex and in it's own room- loved that. The staff and volunteers were all lovely and everything from the restrooms, to the game room, to the grounds was immaculately clean. There is also a nice nature trail that can go on for miles (have to make a left before you reach the busy street) that is nice for those, like us, that have to stay close by during the week. I would definitely stay here again.

From the minute we drove up with our little Shasta, we were treated to the best customer service we've experienced while traveling and camping around the country. This KOA leaves nothing to be wanted, from homemade meals, social opportunities, and all the recreational activities the kids could imagine. The facility is spotless and they even upgraded our site with no charge. The location is a quick drive from all the activities of Gatlinburg, but after experiencing all that chaos, I'd rather stay at the campground!
