Nice Campground near Asheville

I actually had a better experience then I expected! This was my first experience with KOA and I had mixed reviews. Pros: Staff was super friendly, it was so nice to be assorted to my site at check and to have help backing in. I requested that since I have a pop-up camper and no bathroom that I be close to the bathhouse and it was honored! I had the first site in my category, I was at D8. The bathrooms were very nice and seemed honestly recently upgraded, they were always clean. Cons: These spots were tight! I’m all about neighbors, but one review I had got about KOA’s is that they really pack you in. I have a tiny camper so I really didn’t mind but I could see our neighbors with bigger rigs seem a-little squished in. My advice would be to pay the extra to stay at a category near the water! I honestly liked getting to know our neighbors for the weekend so the closeness didn’t bother me that much. Honestly the real reason I only say 4 stars is because we got some firewood delivered and it was wet. Took us all night and nothing caught, even with a can of gas! However it was nice that they delivered it to our site. So overall my friends and I had a great time, we spent most of the time actually in Asheville which was only about 15 minutes away. I can see why some would complain about the site, but it was perfect for us girls that just slept there and sat around a fire drinking. Would recommend as a decently priced option!
