Campground Reviews

Jun 16, 2022
The 50 amp sites have super water pressure and amps! The camp store is redone and very nice. The campground is very state park like with lots of trees! These are new owners who are really trying to make improvements...it will take them time! There seems to be lots of new gravel on the sites, but they need to be level and rolled. The grass need cuts a little more often too!

KOA had a clean bathroom, the manager turned on our A/C before our arrival so our cabin was cooled and he let my son swim even though the pool was closed for the night. That was very kind of him. But, the KOA office closed at 6pm which we thought was extremely early. We were hoping to buy the KOA pizza for dinner but they did not serve food at all. Wish they had a tv in the cabin like the last KOA

Pool closed. Pool was dirty. A public pool needs attention every day

Our first time staying here. We were greeted with a smile. Very clean site for our tent. Nighttime was very quiet and relaxing. We will be back.

Enjoyed our stay. Comfortable & quiet. Wi-Fi needs strengthening at all of the KOA.

Great campground. We have been camping there many years. There is a new owner and there were many noticable improvements!! Pool was super clean and I love the addition of linens supplied in the cabins. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. We booked another weekend stay as we were checking out. It is truly one of our favorite KOA campgrounds, and we have been camping at KOAs for 33 years!!!

The entrance looked nicely landscaped and clean - the pool looked inviting. The campsites seemed to have some long term visitors as well as others like us that we’re traveling through the area. We had no real complaints but the sites were close together and the area looked a bit worn. Other reviews mentioned highway noise but it wasn’t bad to us despite it being nearby. We’d stay overnight

Friendly people and beautiful campground

The staff was very nice and you can tell they are trying to make improvements as around the office is very nice but for $50 a night I did expect more from my site The KOA app showed a water view but the pond had been drained. The KOA was located beside the interstate so it was loud and our site hadnt been mowed recently. Although it was convenient to our venue.

New ownership MAY in the long run be a good thing, but 50%+ rate increase and then added to existing reservations isn’t very “friendly”! Cable TV (DirecTV) is horrid - took 3 tried and the worked for about 45 minutes - office personnel says it has been on-going issue across the park. Entrance road still has issue with overhanging trees.

Site was just a wee bit too short for our rig+toad which worried me some. Somewhat hard to get it level.

A fenced in dog park would be nice. Looks like the new owners are working hard. One night stay for us.

Well kept campground. Clean and well maintained. Have been several times and never disappointed. Congrats and best of luck to new owners.

I am glad they are working on campground. New owners. Heard traffic all night.

Fixing up the park great. Stayed for about 5 weeks and everyday new additions and improvements. The laundry facility is great. New machines and always clean.

I have a 36 ft Class A and flat tow a car. The entrance to the campground has an incline off the road and the tow bar drags going in and worse leaving. The site we were in was difficult finding a level spot even though it was a long site. The campground is nice but more suited for travel trailers.

This is our 3rd KOA we have stayed at on our summer vacation and we werent going to make it to check in before the office closed so we called and the staff were so polite and helpful and just wonderful. When we arrived to the KOA it's tucked back off the hwy and it's really nice. New owner is still doing some touch ups but nothing was an inconvenience. The cabin was clean, beds already made..nice!

The staff are very courteous and helpful. The park is very clean. When it comes to the pro's and con's. The only thing in the con's list, would be the noise from I-40.

Memorial Day at KOA, Newport was so much fun! The staff was friendly and accommodating. The campsites were new and very nice. The bathrooms were clean and well kept every time we entered! The showers had great temperatures and pressures! The store had everything you could need! The Memorial Day activities were so much fun and the band added to the fun and laid back atmosphere! Will come again!

Needed a quick overnight stay, Mike was very helpful and accommodating. Nice campground and will stay here again.

Surprised that is so beautiful with so many trees and amenities for a Journey facility. We could hear the freeway but the dense trees cut down the noise.
May 30, 2022
Nice clean campground. Sites a little close. Had a good band for the memorial weekend. Would definitely stay there again.

Our family stayed for two nights. We had such a great time! The staff was so friendly and helpful. There was a playground for the kids and a dog area. There was even a pool for everyone to enjoy.

The site was very narrow, did not have room to set up our chairs
May 25, 2022
We enjoyed staying in your cabins! They were quaint and cozy and in a great location near the playground. The staff were super nice and helpful. However, the only downside to our stay were the other kids around who seem to be there long term. They were very rude to our children - using inappropriate language, throwing things at them, and being loud seemingly to simply disrupt our time together.
May 23, 2022
The highway noise was the only downside.
May 23, 2022
Doing lots of work to fix it up! Great staff, freindly! Will stay there again when in the area!
May 22, 2022
Great looking park a lot of work looks like is being done, we stayed twice once in April and once and May both time the WIFI was not working at all
May 21, 2022
Camp needs some upgrades but we give them 5 stars because of their outstanding management service. We will return here on the our way back to California

We liked the surroundings (green trees with shade), the way the sites were spread out, hilly with up and down ways to walk. Would not mind spending more time there. We just did single nights. Did pull-through which was nice. The weather was cool. We would definitely like to stay again.

Comfortable cabin, great shower rooms, friendly staff, unlimited free coffee. Would definitely stay again. Also they are making some great improvements.

Camping spot was nice, level and easy in and out. Cable TV worked well. Wifi worked at the office area, not at the camper. Pulling in off of highway 25 my hitch drug on the road. Used the car wash entrance when leaving and it didn't drag.

Honestly it is a lovely park and with the new ownership you can see a lot of improvements being made. The bathrooms are clean. The laundry has newer machines. The employees are incredibly nice. The ONLY issue I had was how unlevel the sites were. Lots of blocks for one side because tires off the ground and solid steps extended all the way and still not enough for legs to hit the ground.
May 16, 2022
We have used this campground as a starting point of many trips. It is always clean and easy to check in as we usually arrive after 9pm. We were just saying we need to stay more than one night because it’s a great location to access gatlinburg and the park.

I suggest ignoring the terrible reviews. We found this campground to be clean and friendly. Decent-sized gravel sites are not perfectly level, but you're in the mountains. We did not need blocks under tires to be comfortable. When outdoors, it's true you can hear highway traffic... but the bonus is the location with easy access off and onto I-40. Enjoyed seeing the cows on neighboring property and had a morning visit from one!
