Everything was decent, about what you would expect with a few exceptions. The jumping pillow wasn’t inflated on the day we left, so my kids were pretty disappointed about that as they were looking forward to it, but I’m sure there was a reason (we made one up anyway). And the lack of activities were also a pretty big disappointment given our previous experiences at this KOA.

I love my stay but I came up there to fish but nobody told us you that we could start and hour before daylight and I think it would be nice to have it too weekend my grandson love it there and the golf cart was very nice to rent and we will be back and I think the store need to stay open later .It a great place we love it .

Lots were clean and nice size. Only complaint was because hot tub was broken for some time before we got there and hadn't been repaired. The main reason we picked this camp over others.

We love staying at Cherokee KOA. The campsites are spaced well. We trout fish so the river and pond boarding the campground are huge plus. Our only complaint this visit (opening day for trout fishing) was the management did not unlock gates early at the ponds so we could get spot to fish. We stay at these campsites mainly to fish so this was very important to us.

I stayed at the Cherokee KOA a few years back (twice) and said I would never stay again. Due to a family event I reluctantly stayed recently, Im glad I did ! The park was well kept, the staff was great. I was surprised to say the least. I was told by other campers that the campground had changed hands (owners) and they too were very pleased with the changes. Looking forward to another stay.

Everything was good except our cabin #380 smelled like cigarette smoke and marijuana. I slept in the upper bunk and it smelt really bad. The mattress needs to be replaced. I don't mind if people smoke but they need to do it outside. The refrigerator was dirty and the fan between the main room and the bunk room was dirty. I seen several dogs off leash as well. Otherwise we had a great time.

Gates to the ponds should have been opened much earlier in the morning.

I really enjoyed my stay. I was a bit disappointed that the KOA tournament didn't take place for opening day this year. I always have enjoyed being a part of that tournament and felt it was a big let down that it didn't take place. Cabin was in a great location this year and the kid had fun with the pool and bouncer and playgrounds.

Amenities for kids were a plus but never saw train car run through campground. On our second day there, sewage backed up and flooded our site, including our drinking hose which is disgusting. Thank God we had bottled water. Worker said it happens at every campground, however, we've stayed at many and have never had this happen. Not a good experience!!!

We had a great weekend camping with friends and making memories.

Overall we enjoyed our stay as first time guests but the indoor pool area could use attention daily. Lots of debris from the roof that opens for ventilation and trash laying around untouched for days. Also, the road noise on the pond side of the campground makes it very hard to rest at night. Tons of traffic all night long so if you are a light sleeper or have little ones beware.

We rented an expensive cabin. Had one trash bag for two nights, the heat didn’t work in one room, bloody mattress pad on the pull out sofa. Asked front desk for trash bags and coffee pods for our second day. Never showed up. Poor service for sure. A lot of yellow shirts sitting in golf carts. I was disappointed. The park itself is beautiful.

Cabin 384 was perfect! Spacious, well equipped and very clean. The ground keepers were always maintaining the common areas and friendly. Perfect location to many activities outside the campground.

This is our first time staying in a cabin. The Cherokee property is beautiful and well maintained. Everyone on staff was polite and helpful. There is planets to see offsite and the people in Cherokee were friendly. Seeing the Elk nearby was amazing.

It was wonderful. I was told there is going to be a place to eat and game room opening where we stayed that would be wonderful. Truly family friendly. I would certainly bring grands and great grands for vacation. There staff go beyond to help you. Friendly staff. The staff always cleaning and making sure you have everything you need. Cannot wait to come again.

We stayed there twenty years ago and were shocked to see so many cabins facing the river and RVs' everywhere. One much needed improvement with such a large, crowded campsite: if you're situated far from the bathrooms, and have to go at night, it's difficult to find your way along the dark, winding paths. These need lights set into the road-solar lights! Cleanliness and helpful staff-5 stars!

The staff welcomed me upon arrival. Maintenance arrived quickly when I asked for assistance with operating the gas logs--and the maintenance staff that provided the assistance was extremely polite and knowledgeable. The cabin was just as advertised. It was very clean and all needed amenities were provided. I enjoyed my stay.

We had a deluxe cabin for 5 of us. It was very clean and comfortable, right on the river. We were very happy with all the accommodations! Will definitely come back!

Our stay was great! The staff was very helpful! The only thing I would say negative is that the couch in our cabin needed to be replaced due to heavy wear and tear!

Great stay in a beautiful little valley just a very short ride to the National Park.

Loved everything about this place and would definitely go back but will go back in my camper before staying in another cabin, my daughter seems to be ate up with bed bug bites which will now cause me to have to treat everything in my own home now to prevent any in my own home.

Absolutely beautiful and the staff is amazing! We will definitely be back!!

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!
