Campground Reviews

This small campground is not too bad BUT their roads need new gravel and our fifth wheel drug on the blacktop getting in the entrance. You could tell others had too. No one wants to tear up their rig so we won’t be going back

Everything was great. Really nice people working there. Our site was not level, but it worked great for an overnight.

Since it is January, not many people were there camping. There appeared to be some permanent occupants in the campground. My only complaint was the noise from I-40. We found an excellent restaurant in town called Lois’. Overall, great experience!

We just stayed one night on our way passing through. Staff was very friendly, campground was nice and clean, the only drawback was the highway being so close.

A shower was out of order and the large laundry room sink was out of order. Bathrooms constantly smelled like cigarette smoke as did the office/store. Cigarette butts were also littered throughout. Water wasn’t available. The spigots where wrapped up in some sort of frost proof blanket that were heavily taped. WIFI wasn’t good. The cabin was nice and quaint. Pricing was so so.

They had water issues when we first got there, but fixed in a short time. Because of the winter season and having just recently had a lot of snow and melting, it was rather muddy, and a lot of tree debris lying around, so not a real fair assessment of what the park might be like during the "camping" season. It was great for what we wanted, just an overnight stay on our way to Florida.

The staff was very helpful and courteous. This is why I gave you 4 ����. The pull throughs need some work. Your utilities are out dated. The gravel was very uneven. Spend some $$ and do some upgrading.

Unique
Great cabin. Clean and warm on a cold night. Comfortable beds. Courteous staff. Bring ear plugs because of highway noise (not the fault of the camp ground). Thanks all around!

Our stay at the Newport Smoky Mtn KOA was great. The campgrounds are clean, quite, beautiflluy kept, and the owners are great. Friendly people abound. The grounds and atmosphere is so great my cat decided to stay (jump out of the camper and didn't return, he never did that before). If you see a white cat with redish brown makings and a big fluffy tail his name is Buddy and he is the sweetest.

Sites are close together, but the the staff is great.

This is one of our favorite spots to get away to. Newport KOA always makes us super happy!!!

The staff are wonderful. Necessary supplies available, garbage pickup daily. The bathroom facilities and grounds could use some upkeep, that is why it is rated at 3. Overall stay was good and we enjoyed it.

I will rate 5 stars however the pull through spot we were placed (6) was very uneven and required quite a bit of leveling of trailer. Overall a very pleasant experience and will definitely keep in mind for future travel.

Stayed over Thanksgiving weekend, very nice. Was a little noisy with what appeared to be local traffic in and around the campground. Bath house was clean and nice, water temp was cool/Luke warm. But all and all very nice and convenient to area sites and recreation.

It was great overall, except for the noise from the highway

They went above and beyond to accommodate all our needs. We would recommend this KOA. Thank you for being so kind.

The campsite was clean and nice. But there never was any hand soap in any of the restrooms.

Friendly Staff. Very close sites. We stayed to visit Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg. Place was full but friendly campers. Noisey from interstate being close by like all KOAs. Site level, cable included. Good for an Overnight stay.

Loved their laundry and the new great commercial washers and dryers there! It was a friendly and lovely camp site as well!!!

Had a great stay. Far enough away from PF & Gatlinburg (45 min). 30 min to a ton of amazing trails. My kids hooked up to WiFi I’m morning & hiked in afternoon. Everyone was friendly & accommodating. No issue parking our 38ft 5th. Some highway noise but not overpowering or bothersome! Thanks for the hospitality!

Staff were very friendly. Enjoyed my overnight stay in a beautiful part of TN.

Stayed 2 different times this week. Found them very friendly and helpful with an electric hookup issue.
Nov 20, 2020
A lot of highway noise. No problems with getting level and full hook ups no issues. With a large Class A, it was a little tight coming in through entrance and getting to spot. Glad to see a doggy area.

everybody is extremely friendly and helpful. great place to stay.

No one in office worn masks. I felted very unsafe Could not even go into office for supplies. Had to send wife into check in. Wife explained of my high risk. Nothing was even tried to accommodate us. I will not stay again. We have stayed at many different k o a across America and never treated like that. I wonder if they know that there is a pandemic. Or maybe they just don't care. SAD THING

I was camping alone and the staff not only made me feel comfortable and safe, but went above and beyond to meet any needs I had. They were the kindest most generous staff I have ever encountered at a camp ground. I would recommended them and stay there a million times over again!

The staff at front desk was rude. The cabin had no tv, mini fridge, nothing. I stayed at pigeon forge holiday and it was great.

Friendly folks but appears they’ve got enough full timers to have given up on the campground.
Nov 02, 2020
Only a stop over for us, but was clean and had no issues, and definitely somewhere we would stop again.

Very convenient great stay easy accessible

Roads badly needed gravel. The sites were extremely unlevel. Entrance to their road from the highway badly needed asphalt filler...motorhome hitch dragged badly going in and coming out.
Oct 30, 2020
Easy access off I-40. A bit of traffic noise in the campground, but the beauty of the trees in their fall colors made the stay delightful.
Oct 28, 2020
The cabins were very clean. Courtesy stack of firewood was waiting for us. Staff was exceptional in their professionalism and kindness. Bath houses were also kept very clean. We felt safe despite the pandemic.

I suggest ignoring the terrible reviews. We found this campground to be clean and friendly. Decent-sized gravel sites are not perfectly level, but you're in the mountains. We did not need blocks under tires to be comfortable. When outdoors, it's true you can hear highway traffic... but the bonus is the location with easy access off and onto I-40. Enjoyed seeing the cows on neighboring property and had a morning visit from one!

Great place to stay just off 40. Beautiful backcountry views of the smoky mountains and very close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Nikky and Stephanie in the office are wonderful! Many upgrades in the works that will make this place even more amazing. Not a bad choice when planning your trip to Tennessee!
