We stayed only for one night but the staff were very friendly and accommodating! The owner even came to our campsite and delivered a new KOA book. Very nice.

We like to stay at koa while on the road Recently we stayed at Newport/1-40 Smoky Mountain in Tn. There I had trouble levering the RV when I met Stacy not only did she move me to a new site she helped me to level it (which was the best ever) What was supposed to have been a 2 night stay turned to be a 3 night stay and a new friend. If you like a quiet little campground I would highly recommend i

Recent improvements in grading are nice but maybe ‘big rig friendly’ should be removed from description; corners are very tight.

Awesome sites, friendly staff will return to the same place every trip south!!

This was just an overnight stop so I really can't rate the campground at this time. I will say though that I came in after hours but was able to get help from the personnel in the office anyway and I appreciated that very much.

Decent park. You can hear Hwy noise but not terrible. My site was VERY unlevel. I had to go purchase leveling blocks to make it work. That being said it appeared the new owners were trying to fix things ( I had been told on check in.) as people were leaving they were grating sites and doing yard work. Location is pretty good for convenience. 45-1 hour to pigeon forge. 30 to Morristown for food.

We had a great time and the host was the best and would be back

Stacy, in the office, was welcoming, informative and kind. Loved the squirrels playing by our camper.

Nice location but campground is in need of some TLC. Very nice staff though.

Stacy was super nice, very helpful! When I stay at a KOA it think super clean and well kept up, not so here, in my opinion.

Very accommodating. Our attention was a bit small and they quickly moved us to a bigger one. Thank you!

It was very run down and lots of mud. In their defense, they said they just took over. Hopefully, it will improve.If you just need a place overnight, it will do.

Water connection was barely 6 inches off the ground couldn’t use regulator. The site they picked for us barely fit a motorhome with a tow vehicle. Camp appears to be not well-maintained. Needed propane and they were out of it.

We were only there overnight. This KOA is in need of upgrades. The access road was barely adequate for our 31ft motor home. Narrow road was crumbling at crucial areas for maneuvering. The pull thru site was barely adequate. What good is free WiFi if it only connects without internet?! The staff however was ready & waiting for us & pleasant. We appreciate the trash pick-up. The TV reception good

A good spot for an overnight stay but can’t recommend for more than that. Property needs a lot of attention.

Cigarette butts everywhere. Unacceptable showers in bath house. Not clean. People cleaning restrooms standing right outside of it smoking. Noisy due to proximity of major highway. Water in shower took 10 minutes almost to beat up. Sewer caps were missing in more than 1 site. A positive-workers were nice and accommodating.

Nothing special! It was just ok! Not with the $$
Apr 26, 2023
Bath house was was dirty. Very dirty. Showers full of hair. Not painted. Our site had lots of cigarette butts. We were placed right in front of the dumpsters. These should be tucked away. Did not realize how close to such a busy Hiway. Noise level is very high.

Seems like mostly trailers where people live there. Internet was horrible in the evening, cable did not come in good. Sites are very uneven and pretty small. Trash left on site and they didn’t pick up garbage if it was out by 11. They said new owners and they were working to fix it up but we didn’t see anyone driving around . Staff was very nice.

Not bad place to stay and recharge stuff.

Recently under new ownership and making changes. Stacy and David (the new on-site managers) were great hosts, super friendly and helped us with what ever we needed. Park is not perfect, but sites are nice and shaded and it's quiet. Lots to do there and in the area. New owners plan on fixing it up, we look forward to coming back and seeing what they have done.

The lady in the office was super friendly and really nice. The campground was kept very clean and organized. Peaceful and relaxing

We ran into several issues at this campground and had to move several times. However the staff was wonderful and did their best to make everything right. The campground had just changed owners so things were in transition.

Substandard for a KOA
Apr 17, 2023
Dirty bathrooms Outdated. Unkept grounds. Mostly permanent residents. Junky
Apr 16, 2023
very accommodating - and the wifi worked much better!
Apr 15, 2023
People were very nice. Site could be more level. Someone had driven over the dump and broke tge cap. Great location fir traveling through.
Apr 15, 2023
just passing thru, but had a good night.
Apr 13, 2023
Staff was wonderful and very knowledgeable. The pull through sites needs work. We had to back out of the pull through site because we would have drugged the bike rack coming down out of the site.

We love KOAs but this location needs to have its franchise revoked. The was dog ( we hope it was dog) poop all over the place. Our site had 4 piles of it that we stepped in and needed to clean up. Most of the people there were permanent residents with junk everywhere. Lots of kids just wondering around asking if they could hang out with us and no parents to be see. site was to short and uneven.

Great
Apr 10, 2023
Very quiet and relaxing which is the way I prefer my camping vacations. Definitely recommend koa Newport to anybody and everyone. Will be back quite a few times this year and years to come.
Apr 10, 2023
Not much there..
Apr 08, 2023
Wifi does not work well. Not much of a play area for kids. Need better picnic tables at all sites. Propane was out so if you needed it, you couldn't get a refill.

We were late due to traffic and they waited for us. Very nice office staff.
Mar 28, 2023
Are you kidding!!! What happen to the trust you use to have staying in a koa, feeling comfortable it was going to be good!! I think more people lived there than travelers! Junk under all the campers! The one next to us had his windows whited out with paint!! The spot was sooooo uneven we has to go in backwards and angle the trailer to get it somewhat level to sleep! We should have left,

Trash laying about, low voltage
Mar 26, 2023
The site was ok; bathroom counter and floors were dirty. The showers did not have hot water and not draining. There was a lot of items sitting around in the community areas. A lot of long term residents. Ok for a quick stop but not longer…
Mar 25, 2023
Should be cleaner. Sites are not level. Pads and roads are gravel.
Mar 24, 2023
very nice hosts but facility needs updating
Mar 20, 2023
Great over night stay. My only reason not rating a 5 was the cable channels. Lots of them did not work. No worries I would stay here again.

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!
