"The campground is in close proximity to many of the trailheads. There is a nice bathhouse, but all the sites are rustic (non electric)."
"It may be the loveliest campground in Tennessee.
There’s only 20 spots, and they all seem to be shady and have trees between neighbors."
$15 / night
"Site 1 is open so a small pull behind can fit in parking area. Tents only on sites. Lots of shade. Toilet is vaulted, no water. Easy access to Obed River and trails."
"Bearproof trashcans are located throughout the campground. A section of the Cumberland Trail begins at the campground. The Emory River runs right alongside the campground with easy access."
$30 / night
"You can find group sites or individual private sights tucked way back in the timber. The brewery on sight is a short walk from the campground and absolutely amazing."

"We really enjoyed Milton Hill dam, very friendly people , well stocked store, easy access to swimming and fishing and full hook up sites if you want them."
"We made a last minute trip to Melton Hill that was very conveniently located just outside of Knoxville. The campsite offers several options for camping along the water or in the woods."
"There is a road close by but not a major freeway. It’s one of the quieter KOA’s I have stayed at. Pool is small but very clean. The store is well stocked and you can get hand dipped ice cream."
"We had a great view of one of the ponds, and nice lawn on each side and behind us. There was a nice modern picnic table and a heavy duty fire ring, both of which we put to good use."
$85 - $95 / night
ScoutFirst time camping KOA. We are very pleased with this campground. The staff is friendly. The grounds are beautifully maintained with lots to do for the kids.
Our pull thru site 60 was directly across from the pool and playground. We stayed for the night in 28ft travel trailer without unhooking on a wonderfully level site.
ScoutCumberland Mtn. S.P. is a beautiful park, all interactions with staff were friendly and pleasent. Be advised that if you arrive after 4pm as per checking time posted on the website, the office will be closed. Talking to the wonderful staff I found that numerous requests have been made to have the site updated but has not happened. Also, our opinion was that many of the facilities could use a little love, the bathhouses are dated and in desperate need of renovation, and during our stay were void of any cleaning. Even the presence of spider webs and eggs around the windows spoke of neglect in proper cleaning. The park does offer wifi for those wanting to stay connected however for us it would continually go off line and have to wrestle with reconnecting and signing in. Overall it is a very nice park, just in need of cleaning and a little TLC.
GuideThis is our second time here. I really like this campground. It is right next to the Museum of Appalachia. It's full of peacocks and mini horses and fat little pigs. I really enjoyed hearing the peacocks and donkeys in the morning. There is so much to do around in the area, too. My family lives here so it is very convenient to visit them.
ScoutGood place to camp parking is a little difficult, especially if it’s raining a bunch as the ground is very soft. Luckily we have 4 x 4 so that didn’t deter us too much but our campsite wasn’t level. We were only there tonight so it wasn’t a huge deal. The camp host was amazing and very helpful. We would definitely stay again.
TravelerGood state park. Beautiful area and spacious sites. Will come again
TravelerGreat view, plenty of spots to set up, great fishing and a surprisingly low amount of bugs!
TravelerVisited here in the middle of January with all the snow and I was hot tent camping. You can only set up your tent on the designated tent pad, luckily we had heavy duty stakes that could get through the ground. The entire river was frozen over and ponds were frozen too. There were a few cars that drove through the middle of the night but no issues. We left our site unattended for hours to check out the streams and rivers and nothing was missing. Lots of beer bottles left over and shattered so I have to pick up the trash before letting my dog out. There are more sites down the gravel road but we went with the first one we came to.
TravelerVery nice campground. Some sites have walkways going to the fishing pond. Overall clean restrooms and showers.
TravelerSites are close together but very level. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Beautiful waterfront sites.
