Paws and Paths: Traveling with Pets to the Smokies

Your Guide to a Great Stay with Your Four-Legged Best Friend

Camping is always better when your dog gets to come along! We love welcoming furry travelers to the Newport KOA. To ensure a safe, fun trip for your pup and your fellow campers, keep these quick tips in mind:

  • Pets must be supervised and kept on a maximum 6-foot leash at all times when exploring the campground.

  • Please help us keep our shady campground clean by picking up after your pet and disposing of waste in our designated trash bins.

  • Remember that dogs are only allowed on two specific trails within the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (The Gatlinburg Trail and the Oconaluftee River Trail). Luckily, the nearby is much more pet-friendly!
