Hiawassee KOA Holiday Reviews

This is one of the best KOAs we have stayed at. The grounds are well kept, and the bathrooms and showers are very clean and always well stocked. We got to visit this past weekend while there was a Cushman meet, so we got to see a lot of old restored Cushman trikes and bikes! There is a jump pillow that all our kids enjoyed, the play ground was fun for all of us (we love it when there are swings that are big enough for adults too) that had good, heavy duty see saws! We loved how big the park was. It was perfect for the guys to ride bikes. We loved the creeks that are perfect for the little kids to splash around in. We loved how quiet and peaceful it was, well off main roads so there was not any road traffic noise. Our only complaint was getting into the bathrooms. The little kids (11 years and younger) could not get them open on their own, I was only successful getting them open twice during our stay, my sister had a hard time, as well as many other campers in our area. My husband and brother in law was the only ones who were able to get into them 98% of the time. They also had to help the other campers get in as well. There has to be a better lock/combination system that can be installed to help. I can tell you first hand that late at night/early in the morning while everyone else is still asleep and you have to potty and can't get in, it is a real challenge and aggravating. But that will not stop us from visiting again in the near future since we only live an hour away! I was excited to play shuffleboard, but we ran out of time since they had to be returned by 5 pm😔. Another small complaint we had was that the office should stay open until maybe 6/7pm or even a little later than that. Or maybe have people pay a cash deposit to get items like the shuffleboard disc's and keep them and return them the following day and get their deposit back when they are returned. The good still way way out weighed the "bad"! I would suggest everyone visit at least once!
