Such a great KOA and has been for well over 50 years. Year 2020 they added a amazing lazy river / pool. Thanks for the great time as always. 10/20/2020

Great place! The only thing I would recommend is replace the cushions on the patio chairs (pretty minor!). We will definitely return. 10/24/2020

Love the new heated pool. Wish some of the visitors would have followed the rules to make everybody safe. We saw the staff working hard to make everyone safe as possible 10/24/2020

Highly recommend the river front lots....they seem less crowded than the others. Also, KUDOS to the staff for the escort to our site and assist in getting into the spot! That was really going above and beyond! 10/24/2020

We have stayed here the past 7 years and have enjoyed our past experiences. This years stay was hampered by the construction and heavy equipment noise along the Patriot Park fence line that begins earlier than I would like while on vacation... 10/24/2020

Campground was nice, but - 1. Sites are too close together. 2. Roads need repairs. 3. Middle restrooms need work on faucets. No pressure and water is cold. 10/24/2020

Everything is nice about this campground except it can be really tight. 10/24/2020

Good location. A little noise in the morning from nearby business. Staff was excellent. Pool area was great. 10/24/2020

Absolutely delightful. We’ve stayed here a handful of times, but this was our first time since 2012 and the first time in an RV. The campground has grown into a very beautiful place. Perfect location for anyone who stays in Pigeon Forge. 10/24/2020

Very nice. We were able to upgrade to full service on arrival. Really appreciated being able to do that. Staff and facilities were top notch. 10/24/2020

Very clean, very nice, store was well stocked and everyone there was extremely helpful and friendly! We will definitely be back! 10/24/2020

Great place to stay, close to just about every thing in Pigeon Forge and close to Gatlinburg. Just wish we weren't so close to the road in front of KOA! 10/24/2020

Good stay and friendly staff 10/23/2020

Great RV park. Lots of trees for shade 10/23/2020

The campground was great and we enjoyed our stay. Only negative’s was the noise factor... large trash bins being emptied at 5 in the morning with loud sounds from bins closing and construction noise nearby. The campground does not have control over the construction... 10/23/2020

Loved everything about the stay. 10/23/2020
