The woman's water in the showers was cold. The pool wasn't open when it was supposed to be. My son woke up to bites all over his body after staying in a cabin.

I love staying here normally. Usually no complaints this time the first night the heat froze up the cabin was freezing. The windows were nasty inside and out. Definitely needed a little more attention than it got was disappointing for sure.

You getting more expensive, but it is a nice place.

Ice storm was threatening so the KOA staff put me in a "safe" cabin for my stay. BRAVO!! Even my cat was pleased with the wonderful pet-friendly amenities.

The staff were great, had the heat turned on in my cabin and offered to bring heaters if I needed. Could not ask for better place to stay , very clean.

We have a group that stays every November and it has always been a great experience dealing with the Cherokee KOA staff. The accommodations are also top notch.

No problems, with staff of the place itself. It was a little disappointing that the indoor pool was closed during our stay it was in the winter months so understandable. Please keep in mind if you will be using the public showers they are very moldy the bathroom is self no issues very clean it is just the shower's that have a lot of mold. Just something to keep in mind. I was VERY aware.

Staff was very friendly, the cabin we stayed in which was the nicer and more expensive one was absolutely filthy, we had to leave in the middle of the night on our second night because i was getting ate up with something while in cabin, at 2am i had welts/hives, we even brought our own bed linen so it wasnt that. Bug in fridge, pee and pubic hair in bathroom, toothpaste spit on wall and sink

We rented a cabin for 5 nights. First night there I took a shower and the water turned cold a few minutes into the shower. We called the front desk in the morning and asked to be switched. Initially we were told we could and that there were plenty of open cabins period that changed within on hour I called an hour later, as we were out exploring. And I'm was told that there were no cabins that the

Love the place…….The hard fast rule of 4 pm check-in is ridiculous !!! If the cabin is available at 3 let the guests in like every other place on earth……

Towel rods missing in the bathroom, no hooks to hang things on in the bedroom, Holes in the flooring in the den. very small TV screen, microwave broken, instead of reparing/replacing it, they just put tiny one on shelve that wouldn’t hold stuff. Cracks in drawers of refrigerator, etc. heat didn’t work well,

We stayed in the 2 room deluxe cabin. It was cute, clean and comfy. The campground itself was not over crowded and the grounds are well maintained. The only con was that the indoor pool was closed but it needed repairs so can't really complain. Will definitely stay here again, maybe an RV site next time.
Jan 05, 2026
Excellent!!!!Only place we stay in Cherokee..very peaceful and quite...

Won’t be coming back. Cabin was dirty. Dead bugs, bathrooms were never clean. Will not recommended.

Site 250 at Cherokee KOA was even better than the pictures! Unfortunately the heater in our cabin couldn’t keep up with the cold, and we froze the first night before they brought us a plug in heater. Speaking of freezing, the heater for the pool and hot tub was broken which was a huge disappointment. The showers were not cleaned at all Tuesday-Friday. Gross! The front office staff was amazing!

Beautiful location. Can’t get any closer to nature and the best trout fishing. However, there needs to be more emphasis on cleaning. Our group rented camp sites and cabins. The cabins were not clean. Sheets changed, linens fresh-yes. The amount of hair, dust and filth inside (front door and windows) was gross. We noticed during our 7 day stay/ 20 min’s per unit unsatisfactory. More staff!!

This was the best koa we have stayed at. Super nice. Lots to do. Staff was superb. Cabin was on the river. Very peaceful.

We had a great time relaxing and fishing the river.

Rented a cabin online, did not get the same cabin when we arrived after driving 10 hrs. False advertising! Cabin was filthy, tub had black line around it. Dog fur everywhere! Dishes put away with food on them! Pool and jacuzzi broke, lake dry, river nonexistent! Used to love this KOA, must have new owners that don’t care! Whoever cleans the cabins need some help obviously or don’t care either!

I stayed in K319 for a quick fishing trip but had an unfortunate experience with this cabin. At about 11:30 pm I lost power. I called the after hours line and it did not take long before someone came out to check on my issue. Unfortunately, they were not able to fix the problem. So, at after about an hour I was moved to another cabin. It was not the greatest experience, but it all worked out.

This was our fourth stay at the Holiday KOA. We really enjoy the area the atmosphere and hopefully we will be back in September

Cabin was very accommodating. It was cold and windy when we arrived but the cabin stayed nice and warm. My daughter caught a nice trout first cast just a few feet from our cabin porch. It was a great long weekend trip. We left and crossed the mountain and spent the day at Dollywood and drove on home just in time for Christmas.
