Only problem was unavailable hot tub on part of visit and store closes too early. Fishing licenses, ice cream and ice should be available at least to 7:00 pm. Overall, great, as usual.

Really enjoyed. Weekend was really active when we got there but weekday was very nice. Would definately go back there again. My only gripe would be that employees and others on golf carts would observe the park speed limit. Other than that i would recommend to anyone looking for rv space. We stayed at another camp down the road a year ealier and this was so much nicer.

We had an amazing time. It was such a wonderful place. We are already talking with our children to plan a big family trip to your camp ground. So much to do around there. I'm so glad we chose Cherokee,NC. for my birthday get away.

We had an awesome time. The cabin was clean and it had everything we needed plus some. We have stayed here many times either in our motorhome or by renting a cabin. The staff here is so professional and efficient. We will always return to the Cherokee KOA. We highly recommend Cherokee KOA!

Wonderful campground! Loads of amenities, terrific setting, clean bathrooms and campsites. Great camp store, too! We look forward to returning soon. One suggestion: the women’s bathhouse nearest our site has a trip hazard at the entrance. There’s a slightly raised row of tiles which caused me to stumble and which could cause a fall. The lights inside the bathhouse don’t come on immediately.

In a great location for sure. Base of Smokey mountains and about 4 miles from Cherokee. Casino is close by good mountain biking. KOA has a lot of family big games to play indoor pool and fishing right at the campground.

Stayed in Felix cabin near creek at back of resort. Nice deck/patio and grill. Very relaxing. Indoor pool and hot tub seemed to be a little outdated. Outdoor facilities look very nice (but still closed when we were there). Comfy bed and nice kitchenette area with everything we needed. Tub did not drain well and there were many small ants in the cabin - maybe from rain they had in recent days

The property was very nice and you can’t beat the beautiful view from our deluxe 2 bedroom cabin but we had issues with no hot water in the shower. Someone came out to fix it but was told the barely like warm water was normal but others in our group had hot water in their showers. The cabin was not as clean as it could have been and we had issues with ants.

Very good stay - wonderful location. Of concern however is the ramp condition (wood rot and exposed hole that is a HAZARD) Also Unit 237 is missing siding and the wood studs and underlayment are exposed. Weather infiltration and critters have access to the exterior wall. We love this place HOWEVER Please take care of your wonderful facilities...237 is in need of major maintenance and repairs

I like the updates to the cabins.. only issue is no curtain on door and issue with ants in cabin

We stayed in one of the two room cabins, wow. Wonderful, had all the amenities so we could cook, even watch TV if we wanted. A huge facility, well maintained, and right on the river. It was perfect. We had outdoor seating for a campfire, and any amenity you could possibly imagine. My only concern is that check in for a cabin is four pm, and the office closes at five, too short a window.

Cabin was very clean and supplied all of our needs. Campground was laid out well and staff very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back

We traveled with adult friends we each had cabins side by side. Gorgeous river front views from the deck. Cabins were comfortable and comforts of home. We all enjoyed our stay and wish to have stayed longer. Will definitely return.

We come here every year for a yearly family camping trip. This time we were able to get a site side my side which was proven to be difficult in the past. We love this place!
Apr 15, 2024
It was very good. The only thing was the pool was closed some because of issues so the kids were a little disappointed.

We absolutely loved staying at KOA Holiday!!! The campground is very clean, and the staff is great! We loved staying by the river, the walking areas, and the convenience to everything. We will be back! We don't have kids, but they have lots of fun things going on for families with kids. We don't fish but there's plenty of areas around the campground to fish. Love it!!!!!

I have been coming here for 30 years and the staff is like it use to be! Very helpful and super friendly!! Great time

This is a great go to spot when you need some mountain therapy.

Great time to visit....less visitors and more space for us :). Wet and windy but great fun for the little guy riding in the rain and through the puddles. Fishing wasn't bad either . Clean and friendly....what more could you ask for?
Apr 12, 2024
We had a great time and can't wait to come back in August to fish! We booked the same spot! Great friendly staff!!

This is a great KOA and camping spot in general! The staff were extremely helpful from pre-arrival to late check-in, and all onsite needs once we were there. We rented a deluxe cabin which was well appointed. The location is just far enough out of downtown Cherokee to be quiet and serene yet just a few minutes drive and you're right at the Oconolufte visitor's center in GSMNP. We requested help with getting a cooking grill grate added to our campfire ring and not only did the office staff kindly request it, but it was already swapped out by the time we walked back to our cabin.

The staff was very pleasant and the facilities were maintained well. There are plenty of things to entertain the kids with onsite, the fishing was good and location provided nice views. We definitely had a great time and certainly plan on returning!
