Beautiful site by the river. Main bathrooms could be updated… especially the showers. Husband had cold showers every day for three days.

Always enjoy our stays here. First time using a pull thru site. (B27). Staff very helpful with cable issue. Looking forward to our next visit.

Typical overpriced KOA. $95/night for basic back-in sites that are so close you can't even extend your awnings is outrageous.

Staff is always very accommodating and friendly.

My wife and I camped with friends for the weekend. This was our first time camping at KOA East Asheville. The campground was clean and well maintained. We did not use the pavilion. We enjoyed the patio site and the fire pit. We will definitely return.

The staff was very pleasant, ready to help, lots of smiles. The grounds were very well kept, no trash anywhere. The trails around the lakes were easy to walk. Sites are well marked easy to get into. Nice to have a quick breakfast place for the mornings. Playground was well kept as was the Gaga ball pit.

KOA manager was able to accommodate a spot change with the best outcome. Enjoyed being by the river. Look forward to staying again.

Customer Service lacking in Office.. More than one employee with attitude upon being asked questions when checking future accommodations and rates.. Called back after returning home to question why my card was charged..as of yet I have had no return call as to why!!!..One of the person's mentioned above is who answered when I called she was as abrupt on the phone as in person..Still no call by G

Really enjoyed our site at the lake. Only problem was the traffic noise from I-40 detracted greatly from the setting. But other than that it was a nice stay. The staff is polite and professional! Really great people!

Everything we needed. I lost a set of keys at my sight and they found them and made every effort to get them back to me.

Nice parks, very pretty. We had a lakeside spot, a little tight as other spots are book-ending these. Laundry was closed for renovation while we were there. Drive way in and out with a 5th wheel was a little tight. Would stay there again.

The grounds were very well kept but the sites were far too close together.

I had a Kabin on the water. Nice view. Kabin had heat and A/C if needed. Staff were pleasant. Bathrooms fine with a great shower. There is a short walking path around the pond. Everything was clean. Location was close to Blue ridge parkway.

One of the nicest, well kept KOAs that I have ever stayed at. I'll stay there again when I'm next in the area

The deluxe cabin was perfect, the only thing I would improve is the shower temperature was warm not hot.

We had a lovely spot by the rear lake and it was quiet and peaceful. Showers were very nice. Only disappointment was that the laundry was not operating and we had to go to a local laundromat.

Staff was excellent and very friendly. Bathrooms and other accommodations were very clean. The kids enjoyed all of the activities, especially the dance!

It was a bit crowded in the space we were in but there are larger lots but we’re already booked. The grounds were extremely nice and had a big pond on the back of property and a beautiful creek ran through property. Nice big areas for picnicking by the creek or as long no one else was around, we played frisbee with our goldendoodle. Food truck for breakfast and coffee was very good.

Unfortunately we were somewhat disappointed. The bed was very uncomfortable, the TV remote in the living room didn't work, there was ALOT of hwy noise, not to mention the 1am train whistle each morning, but the reason we checked out early was because we found mouse droppings under the kitchen sink.

We love this KOA. We felt like we were in a state campground right next to the beautiful pond. No sewer but the $10 fee to have it pumped was so worth it. The staff is great and very accommodating. THE amenities are great. If ever back here this is our place.

We love our spot (D26) on the lower lake. It had some great views. The staff were so friendly. We definitely will be back.

This was my first stay at East KOA....I usually stay at West KOA close to family who live in Asheville... Now, I will ALWAYS stay at EAST KOA!!!! The staff was so friendly and accommodating and I felt safe there. I sometimes travel alone and it is comforting to know that you are open around the clock and patrol around. Good job!!

The hostesses are the best and the manager was great All very accommodating.

We travel around the United States, Mexico and Canada with our 5 dogs. We are usually accepted and welcomed at KOA campgrounds and felt especially welcome at this one. We came in after hours - available sites were posted and information left out and it was very easy to come in. The next morning everyone was very friendly and nice. The property is lovely too - beautiful stream and lake.

I’m a KOA loyalist. This was our second stay at this location. As before, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The entire staff was top notch and very cordial. Thank you very much.

Please share with us on Facebook as soon as you are back open! Your campground is one of our favorites, and we have been visiting for years. The beautiful scenery, fishing, playing in the creek, watching the wildlife, the staff, the crafts and activities and family dance parties are our favorite memories for our family. We pray for you all the time and hope you can recover. Best family campground in North Carolina !!

You are the first ever campground we went to since we started RVing many years ago. It's always been our favorite and have had many family reunions there since. The memories you helped us create stay with us as strong as our wishes for a quick recovery from Helene. We keep the great people of Swannanoa in our prayers and look forward to camping there soon. Stay strong!
