Great

Super responsive check-in team. The campground is always operating room clean. As always, we enjoyed our stay. They make it look easy but, as we all know, easy is hard. One thing we noticed this year was the WiFi was so much more reliable and high speed. Very grateful for that! We appreciate the extreme efforts of everyone who made sure our stay was the best.

We had a wonderful stay. The people were so nice and helpful. Very clean and landscaped nice. I have had numerous back and neck surgeries so the help parking was a real blessing. We will be back ! Thank You - M.M.

This is our third time to stay here. We have enjoyed each stay. We had to leave a day early because one of us was sick all week long. We received an unexpected refund for the last day. We appreciate that.

What we loved: family oriented activities, a chance for the kids to run around in a safe environment, well-patrolled area, the pool was nice and clean, the bath facilities nice and clean, staff was friendly, 2 of our 3 cabins were very clean. What we didn't like: One cabin was unbearably smelly and top bunk mattress was stained. No one slept in it overnight. We crowded into the other 2 cabins.

Campground was quiet, clean, and well maintained. The river is a unique feature of the campground! The close proximity to Great Smoky Mountains National Park is also a big plus! Our site was a quite narrow for our preference and the fire ring was practically unusable due to its closeness to the trailer. Overall would likely stay here again but at a different site.

Great location, just beautiful. We will definitely stay here again!

We always enjoy our stay here! There's nothing better than enjoying the Little River in the Summer. We love this campground and the amenities!

Everything was great. Clean cabins, small refrigerator in the room with AC, great and friendly staff, other guests were also friendly. Any needs you text and the texts were answered promptly. They deliver ice and firewood to the site when needed. Perfect for a getaway in the mountains. I highly recommend.

I give a 3 because the mountains and Cades Cove was wonderful. The campground not so much. I guess I am just used to the KOA/ Holiday atmosphere in West Virginia in Milton. The amnesties are great there here not so much. We stay in a cabin there also/ here there was nothing. No dish soap or anything. The beds where horrible, felt like bricks. The air conditioners where dirty and dust everywhere.

The deluxe cabin we stayed in the floor vent was bent up so you had to watch you would trip over it or stub your toe. The bathroom doors took someone one each side to slide it shut to get it to lock. One of the blinds had been chewed up from a dog. The cabin had a very unpleasant odor we had to spray a bunch free breeze to get rid of the smell. Other than those issues the campground is very nice.

We live less than 30 minutes away (a Maryville) and brought our RV so we could use your KOA as a home base to see all the surrounding sites and so hikes nearby. We hiked to beautiful waterfalls, swam in the river, got ice cream at Burger Master and lounged by the pool. We will definitely be back to play tourist again.

$120/night for a water/electric site is price gouging. We won’t be back.

I really liked the area around this KOA. The camping cabin was very clean. Would stay again for sure.

We visited this site for our first ever trip in our RV. The staff were extremely helpful and professional. The sites were very clean and well maintained. The overall vibe was comfortable and inviting. The staff did a jay ride with super soakers around the camp. It was nonstop laughter and joy. We will be visiting again very soon!

Our visit for five days was outstanding. Only half of my kids were there with their families. So next year, all of my kids (age 30–42) will be there in four different spots and we are already booked. Had a great time. See you in June 2024.

Great campground, friendly staff. Excellent vacation!

It was a good place to stay. It was bigger and busier than we anticipated, but people were for the most part not too loud. Bathrooms were nice. If we come back to the Smokies, I'd probably stay here again.

All the guest services staff were amazing! So helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. We had a deluxe cabin that was clean and cooled! The front porch came in handy when it stormed, loved being near little river! Thank y’all so very much for a great “first timer” experience!

Loved the location!! Camp & facilities were very clean. Employees were super kind & helpful. We did not want to leave when it was time to go home. Will definitely come back again soon!

Very clean, nicely landscaped. I was totally relaxed the whole time. Highly recommend.

Our stay was fabulous. The camp hosts Jeff and Trina, were by far the best camp hosts that we have come across yet. One suggestion that i have however is to watch the ivy that is growing up some of the trees. The ivy will choke off the trees and eventually kill them.

This KOA was wonderful! The cabin at the riverfront was the most fun my children had our whole trip! Bathrooms were clean and we really enjoyed ourselves.

Everyone was so polite and kind. The grounds are well maintained and yet still making improvements.

Only downside is prices. Area hotels are less.

The facilities were very clean. Our campsite was clean when we arrived. Dan was very helpful with getting us backed into our site. All the staff were friendly and went out of their way to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. We will definitely be back.

Staff was great! I already booked another stay. Beautiful campground. By far one of the best we have stayed at.

There were ant hill piles throughout the park. Internet was spotty at best

Clean campground and facilities. Staff was super nice and helpful. Sites were a little close. The riverside sites were nice; however, it was a bit noisy on the river. There was a group of people who partied LOUDLY in lawn chairs IN the river from noon til 8 pm every day we were there. They were not campers at KOA and KOA likely had no control of that. Couldn't enjoy babbling river due to partying.

We stay at this campground on every trip to the Smoky Mountains. We have stayed in cabins and in our RV at a campsite and it is absolutely the best!

Our first stay here and it was at a very vulnerable time… my husband’s father passed away the night prior and we came camping to get away until his funeral arrangements took place… this campground gave us peace and comfort our whole stay. We can’t wait to come back! (But this time, in better spirits) Thank you KOA for a beautiful campground to make memories in!

We had a great time even though it rained almost every day we were there. Loved the deluxe cabin with the loft on the river. My favorite thing was sitting out in the porch listening to the river flowing. So peaceful. The campground was so clean and neat. Will definitely be back.

This visit will be my last as I was treated badly and forced to park my truck across the road to the national park, LOTS of traffic Or leave it where it was for $20a day. It was not encroaching on the neighbor or impeding traffic flow. So it’s a money thing. Either there’s room to park or not. $20 doesn’t make more space. The assistant manager was rude told me if I didn’t like it I could

Staff was great. Sites were even better!!
