I really liked. The convenience to my conference at the Blue Ridge YMCA. The camp site was great and the area to walk was perfect for me as I am training for a hike in August. The staff was very nice and helpful. It was so family friendly! I was alone as a 65 yo woman and felt very safe.

This KOA is managed extremely well. It is in pristine condition Always someone to help it answer questions. The restrooms/showers were cleaned throughout the day and were installed recently. We enjoyed the Patio/Fireplace feature as well. We will be back for sure.

We have been coming here for over 20 years. This Park took a direct hit from Helene in September 2024. They have reopened a portion of the original park, and they have done an excellent job. 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.

Staff was friendly, informative and helpful. Given the limited facilities they had plenty to offer for kids and families. Being a huge fan of Lazy Rivers and less of pools I would like to see them build a Lazy River here. I think it would be a perfect opportunity since plenty of rebuilding is left to be done.

We arrived and Christy helped me. She was awesome. Very professional and also laughed at my jokes. Her husband met us and showed us to our spot and helped me get my RV situated on the spot. We have stayed at KOA before and like the help they give us.The grounds were well kept and you could see they've put a lot of work into the park. It was pretty full. We will come back if we are in the the area.

Amazing place with amazing staff.

One of the best campgrounds we have stayed at. Plenty of activities were planned during our stay. The entire staff did an amazing job making you feel at home. Located near Asheville and all it has to offer, but far enough away from the hustle of Asheville. I would also recommend going into Black Mountain. A growing s.all town that still has plenty of charm.

Campground is nice considering the devastation from Helene. Cable is a must! I am in no rush to return. Staff is wonderful. We will give you a couple more years for improving.

As usual we loved our stay!!! Our favorite KOA. We stay twice a year while traveling to & from Florida. Luke went above & beyond helping us with some camper issues. See you in September!!

We had a great stay at the KOA East Asheville. Tho was honestly our first KOA as we normally tent camp at state parks. We loved the amenities and so did our 5 year old. The bounce pillow was a hit. The staff was amazing. Eric, Andy am pretty much every person working there was so friendly. We’d definitely go back! Only downfall was the tent sites are so close together so very little privacy.

This was our first stay at Asheville East since they reopened after Helene. They've done a beautiful job restoring the front two sections of the campground. We hope they'll be able to reopen the areas around the lakes soon. It's always been one of our favorite places to camp. The staff here is so helpful and welcoming! Please come to these communities and enjoy all they have to offer.

Even after the devastation of Helene, the KOA is a beautiful place. We are locals who "test out" our camper every year at this campground. What made our stay here even more enjoyable this year was a young man, Andy Mach, and his wife, Christy, who made us feel as though our enjoyment was a top priority and his welcoming spirit and kindness will stay with us. They are management material for sure

While park is small and not much amenities, the hosts Andy and Christy were awesome. Andy went out of his way to come and check that we were set up and happy several times. All the employees were very helpful and always greeted us with a smile on their face. Very hospitable!

Christy and Andy and every staff member we encountered were more than just friendly, they were enthusiastic about making sure our stay was excellent. The campground is just coming back online after the devastating flood but it was clean and ready with everything we needed.

The staff was very friendly and helpful and kept my grandkids busy with crafts. The especially loved the inground trampoline.

A real tribute to the workers who have brought the place back from devastation. I will definitely come back.

We arrived after hours and were able to easily locate our site. The amenities were great and lots of fun. The river is beautiful and so is the campground. We spoke with Andy for awhile when he stopped by the dog park to admire our pup. He was very nice and helpful. It’s amazing how great the park looks considering what they’ve been through. We can’t wait to come back and see more upgrades.

Andy and Chisty were great. Very clean and well maintain park. The Christy arranged a perfect spot right by the river. We don't usually back in but Andy guided us in the back in spot and the spot was perfect. Thanks for the great experience in Asheville East KOA.

tent area was very nice. lots of trees and very quiet. bathhouse was very clean and comfortable.

Great place with walking trails and a beautiful river running thru it. Well set up and easy to navigate to your site. Great trash service picking it up for most of the day. Lakes with baby geese and ducks. Wooded area to bird watch. Close to many great things in Asheville area.

Kristy at the front office was very helpful! The new bathhouse is nice

.Heartwarming to see the continued progress of renovation after the storm. The sites in A are easier to back in to with the angled arrangement. The first impression is the worst. Find a way to make the entrance from 70 smoother and modify the speed bumps to reduce the punishment on our bodies and equipment.

Clean, friendly, and beautiful surroundings

We had a great week on site A18. The campground is well maintained and all the staff are super helpful, especially Andy who took us from check in to our site and got us situated. One of the top KOAs around! Thanks again!

We stayed in the Deluxe Cabin and it was perfect! So glad to be able to continue to make more great memories here. The tent sites and cabins we normally stay in were taken out by the hurricane along with so much more so it was bitter sweet. It was our first stay back since Helene and they have worked so hard to recover. The mountain community still needs your support so plan your stay here. Thank you to the incredible staff!

This is a KOA campground not a hotel so I didn't rate the "rooms". We've stayed here for a week for a number of years (except when it was hammered by the flood) actually we were there the month previous to the storm. I will make comments about our 2026 stay. The campground is on the way to recovery. They are doing everything possible to provide campers with a great camping experience. We are camping a class A with a pull behind car. We stayed down on the river. (Saw lots of birds this year but no bear like last year.) The staff are very service oriented. We enjoyed taking our dogs around the lake over the bridge. Its not all open yet but gives a good walk. It was enjoyable sitting outside enjoying coffee with no mosquitoes (were from Florida). The campground has done a lot for the kids. It was great to see families doing stuff outside together. This is one of my favorite campgrounds and we will be back in 2027. I want to thank the owners and staff for their hard work getting this place going forward to be the premium campground it was before the flood. ( my opinion)

So great to see the Asheville East KOA back up and running after the devastation of Hurricane Helene. Talked to the new owners and they have plans for additional cabins in the future as they continue to rebuild. Our stay in the Deluxe cabin was great. The kitchenette was super useful with 4 burners, microwave, large refrigerator, and sink. Plus they had a Keurig coffee machine with a few Kcups for free. Bathroom had shampoo, conditioner, and body wash dispenser. Great outdoor deck with table and rocking bench. Kids loved the fire pit area. Will definitely come back and stay again.
