Campground Reviews

The park was very nice after having to renovate from the hurricane. We found it nice to have the power pedestals elevated much higher. We're very glad they could recover after all the devastation.

This was our first time back since the flood. We were very impressed. All the rebuilding so far is even better than before. We have always loved staying at this park and even though they’re still working on rebuilding I’m so glad we were able to go back and stay there. Can’t wait to see what more is to come!

This was our first stay at your facility and we had a good time. The only thing that bothered me was the road noise. We are used to staying in state parks that are very quiet. That said, we would (and likely will) stay with you again because of your central location to everything we like to see. Your staff was very friendly and the part of the park that has re-opened post Helene was very clean!

Awesome vacation at Asheville East KOA. We were there for 3 weeks and already missing our beautiful creek side site. The staff are so nice and helpful. Thank you. ���ϋ��ϋ�

It was a great stay! The flood was devastating on the campground and they have done an amazing job to get it back into shape. Still got a long way to go to get it back to where it once was. I will definitely be back soon.

We are so thankful that Asheville East KOA is open since Hurricane Helene in 2024. I can’t say enough, and appreciate all that Lisa and Doug did for us during our stay. Highly recommend this beautiful campground!

Front desk folks were friendly and helpful, campground was clean and pleasant, campsite was easy access and in good condition. I loved that they came around each morning to pick up whatever trash bag you set out! I have reserved two more days in October!!!!!!!!

Our site was very nice, we had a patio which was good to keep the dust from inside the camper. The firepit and furniture were new and in very nice shape. The big drawback was the bathroom situation. The only option was the trailer which was cold inside (our trip was in the fall and it was in the 40's in the am). The bathrooms were not cleaned early in the morning and not pleasant to use.

This Park took a direct hit from Helene in September 2024, they have done an excellent job rebuilding. All current sites are FHU, and they have the typical KOA assortment of patio, long level pull-throughs, and back-in sites. Our 45’ motorhome and toad fit easily with room to spare. Take some time to walk around nearby Black Mountain, check out the corner hardware store and small local shop

Amazing recovery from the hurricane. Sites appeared a bit more spacious. We already booked a site for next year.

We are SO happy that this campground is back open! You have come so far since the devastating floods a year ago, and we can't wait to see what changes will have been made the next time we stay! One thing that hasn't changed is the friendliness of the staff; everyone was wonderful as always. I would like to see more campground lighting sooner rather than later, it is super dark at night.

I'm sure that this campground was totally awesome before it was flooded out in hurricane Helene. Everyone was very friendly and we had a great time and it's clear they are doing their best in a rebuilding situation. We will come back.

We love your campground.

Unfortunately, we were only able to stay one night, but really enjoyed our stay. Check in was super easy and the cabin was great! It was clean and comfortable. The location is perfect and the area is beautiful. The bath house was very clean! We will definitely be back for a longer stay!

This koa has always been 1 of my favorites! The office people are great! The hurricane last year devastated this area but it is rebounding! The Campground itself is also rebuilding. The front half is fully functioning with new high speed wifi, seasonal pool, play ground and game area. The back half, on the other side of the river is still being rebuilt. I can't wait to see it when it is complete!

I loved this campground. Check in was easy, bathrooms were great and had brand new showers. My only complaint is that you can still hear some traffic at night. However, that has to do with its proximity to the city which is also a pro. Overall I would come back.

Post hurricane rebuild coming along nicely. You took complete destruction but will come back better than before. We will return.

I mainly stayed to attend a music festival . I felt safe and the site was clean and easy to park.

I would recommend this KOA for its beautiful and convenient (although somewhat noisy) location. Currently (because of last year's hurricane), the only bathroom/shower facility nearby is a portable set-up, which was not mentioned in the listing. This would not necessarily have been a deal breaker, but the shower curtain looked like it had not been changed all season and was covered in mold.

So happy to see Asheville coming back! The KOA East was clean and accessible. The staff were all super kind! Shout out to Andy and Lisa! New shower/bathrooms were great! Laundry room was clean and great folding areas! Look forward to our next visit!

June 2026. Much better campground than you would think for the price. Well kept, clean. River like a creek runs through it w kids splashing around in it. Huge upscale grocery store a couple miles away. They are coming back from hurricane damage, but the RV area has been upgraded since then. Wifi great, you could work from here. Nice playground. Close to a couple of interesting towns. Pool issues while we were here but working hard to open in a day or two.

Very very nice people and campground well laid out sites, beautiful place to be. Only thing which can't be helped is the road noise i guess I have gotten used to it camping so much the
