This KOA was very nice, we stayed only 2 nights, we visited the Great Smokey Mountains National Park which was very close by, we also went into town and had a blast... 1/8/2020

We enjoyed this KOA. The location is great. We were able to walk to restaurants and a park. There is a river next to the cabins and it is a quiet location... 1/5/2020

Great stay, very great and friendly staff. Ease check in with escort to site. Very nice and clean bath houses. Would recommend to anyone and we will visit again. 1/14/2020

Got our favorite spot again! Customer service earns an A++++ Great place! Even better people!!! 1/14/2020

We needed the bulb replaced in the lamppost and some rock in a muddy place at our campsite. Both these things were taken care of in a short time after our request. The ladies in the office were very nice. The lady picking up trash/garbage was friendly... 1/13/2020

The staff is great 1/11/2020

Stay was very nice. Good park for dog walk and close to shops and food. Sites are very close together and my site was like a mud pit from the rain otherwise was good. 1/10/2020

Everyone is friendly. Live the location. ONLY issue I have is parts of the road have holes that are getting worse. They should e repaired for the Motorhome, campers and vehicles to avoid damage to the vehicles. 1/9/2020

We love koa we want stay anywhere but there 1/9/2020

5 stars. Perfect stay. Didn't want to leave. We will definitely be back. 1/8/2020

Great stay, nice staff, enjoyed our stay 1/8/2020

First timers: We love the fact the campground seems to be off the beaten path when in reality it is a block away from the main road where everything is located. We went for 3 days over New Years. It was clean and quite and the staff was awesome... 1/8/2020

We had a wonderful time! The staff were all friendly and helpful. If I had any complaint about our cabin it was the lack of space to store clothes. We had a lot of heavy jackets and clothing and would have liked some sort of dresser or larger "closet" area or more hooks... 1/7/2020

We love the 2 person camping cabin. It gives our family the space we need and is the perfect fit. The outside area is great for kids to play. The only negative is the mattress is very firm and we will be bringing a mattress topper in the future... 1/7/2020

Great place very friendly and clean. Great location. Stayed in a deluxe cabin and loved the deck with fireplace overlooking Patriot Park. Cant wait to stay again. 1/7/2020

Always friendly and accommodating, clean and low prices. Will be back next year again! 1/6/2020

We enjoyed our stay in the deluxe cabin.....Very Roomy and comfortable. The location was perfect for our trip to Dollywood! Can't wait to come back! 1/6/2020
