I typically steer clear of KOA's because most of the sites are super close together. This KOA is different! There is a row towards the front that are pretty close together, but I think they use those for one-nighters. We were in a tent and loved our spot. The staff was UNBELIEVABLY awesome and nice. They have a pool, a pond, a playground, a dog park, and a great camp store. The bathrooms and laundry room are exceptionally clean. If you order ice or firewood, they bring it to your site. They also have food you can order and they will bring it to your site. I am sure there are many things I am forgetting, but this is a must stay and we will be back.

We stumbled on this campground after 5 and the lady who runs the place was kind enough to help us out and register us. We were in site #1. The views are absolutely spectacular! It is pretty rustic and the bathrooms need upgrading. That is the only reason I am giving it 4 stars. Everyone was nice and if you are lucky (we weren't) you can see the elk pass through. We will definitely be back!

We were booked here for 2 nights on site 14. I read the reviews about how close the campsites were, but the picture didn't look too bad. When we arrived we loved the remote location, however, when you say close together, they are very, very close together. We have 3 dogs and they would have never rested because there is absolutely no privacy between the sites in the back of the loop and only feet from one tent pad to the next. We decided to stay somewhere else for the night. Campground host was awesome, I didn't use the restrooms, but I would imagine they are spotless like the rest of GSMNP.
