This was our first visit to this KOA, although we are very familiar with Townsend and the Tennessee side of the GSMNP. The location couldn’t be any better and our deluxe cabin was clean, quiet, and perfectly functional for 2 adults and a teenager. The KOA is on the small side, so expect neighbors. That being said, KOA people seem to be what’s best about America, so also expect to make friends.

We love it here but the cost is getting a little high. I know koa has amenities but so do the other campgrounds around the area.

The setting is beautiful and the staff were great. However, for larger RV's like ours, the site was a little cramped. Overall a good experience.

It was a great place to go camping

Our site was in the perfect place. Out grandchildren loved playing on the new playground, riding their bikes and wading in Little River. If we needed anything the staff was right on it. Clean bathrooms, showers and laundry. The pool was great too! Our stay was an excellent time to enjoy family and meet new friends. We highly recommend KOA Townsend Skokie Mountains!

It was ok. We wished the store had more staples e.g. butter cheese, crackers. Really wish the water in the shower had been warmer.

Very friendly staff and campground crew. Bathrooms and shower facilities were very nice and clean.

It was our second time staying in the same site, We love it so much we already reserved again for next year, The campground is clean, quiet, and beautiful, and the staff are so nice.

This is our favorite KOA ever. Unfortunately I took away one star because of the price. The park is always clean and well kept and the staff friendly and helpful but what appears to be corporate pricing is going to eventually leave us looking for alternatives. We have been coming here every year for at least 10 years. We have been KOA members since 2003 but we will be cutting back on our stays.

We love Townsend KOA. It is our favorite place to stay!

It was a good stay. I would have liked the lady that checked us in to have said that we needed to go to the office after we parked. But even that was truly no big deal. We had a nice stay.

The campground and staff was very nice. The reason for a poor rating was due to the face that the tent sites are right on top if one another. The tent site we stayed in had no gravel or anything on it, thankfully it didn’t rain or it would’ve been a pure mud hole disaster. No concrete or gravel around the table, the fire ring was broken, so you couldn’t cook on the rack. No hook for lantern

Sap from trees ruined our car and our lawn. Hairs were ruined by whatever kind of tree drops rotten balls that explode black. Chairs are ruined. People that work there are all nice though.

The campground is very nice next to the water I stayed in a deluxe cabin and they do have the worst beds I've ever slept in , if you told me they were donated by prisons when they receive new beds I would believe you

"location, location, location". can't beat it. close to the park and set beside a stream. lovely. only complaint was that the cabin had a serious mold smell. ac did not help. windows open was the only fix, so allergy meds were a must. top bunk was dirty. littered with numerous small bug bodies (from open windows?) all facilities (bath, shower, laundry, wash sink) were kept clean and tidy.

Wonderful place to stay. Clean. Help showing you to your site and getting backed into. Trash pick up at the end of your parking place. Just a great place to stay

Love the patio sites...so easy and convenient to setup in. Only thing I would like to see improved is the showers. It takes forever for the shower water to get warm.

We went to Townsend specifically for the Heritage Festival. Campground was well kept and clean. Staff was very helpful and friendly. It is our go-to spot each time we visit Townsend. It's close proximity to Cades Cove and Pigeon Forge is a big plus.

Very much enjoyed our stay and view of the river. The only thing that i wish we had was a porch overhang so that we could still be outside even though it was raining.
