What you should know
Shower facilities vary: Some parks charge for showers, requiring quarters. "The showers will cost you, so bring quarters. Plus, the ones we saw looked like they had black mold all around," warns a camper about Sequoyah State Park's Cherokee section.
Noise considerations: Highway proximity affects some cabins more than others. "We were in site 13, closest to the highway along with two cabins and the playground. Extremely noisy so if traffic bothers you request a site towards the back," advises a KOA visitor.
Limited supplies: While some cabin areas have small stores, selection is minimal. "They have a little c store to get some extras you may need," notes a KOA camper, suggesting visitors should bring most supplies with them.
