Clinton, Tennessee Campground | Clinton / Knoxville North KOA Journey

Welcome to the Clinton / Knoxville North KOA!

Four Deluxe Cabins, Two Camping Cabins, (one pet friendly $) Tent Sites and Premium Tent Sites are available. Enjoy the spacious swimming pool, 12 X 12-foot wading pool for toddlers, exercise room, expanded playground, volleyball, horseshoes and cornhole. A full kitchen and covered pavilion are great for groups, with picnic tables seating up to 80. Visit the Museum of Appalachia, a mile away. The pristine beauty of Norris Lake and the renowned trout-fishing waters of Clinch River are 5 miles away. You're 15 minutes from the University of Tennessee and the Knoxville metro area. The Great Smoky Mountains are 40 minutes away. Pool: May 10 - October 1. Max pull thru: 80 feet. Your hosts: Debbie & Mark Cunningham.
