“the peaceful side of the Smokies”
Located on "the peaceful side of the Smokies," the Townsend/Great Smokies KOA is a tranquil place to visit. Surrounded by beautiful forests of the Smoky Mountains and nestled up against the Little River, this KOA provides a great setting for relaxing and enjoying nature. Cades Cove is just around the corner with plenty of biking and hiking opportunities, and the Little River is excellent for swimming, tubing and trout fishing. Visit the on-site restaurant for tasty southern fried chicken or homemade fudge. Full hookups are available on level, grassy sites with paved patios. Tent sites range from semi-sunny to heavily wooded and secluded. Don't want to rough it? Reserve a Camping Cabin or furnished Deluxe Cabin. Enjoy the on-site laundry, swimming pool, modern playground, covered pavilion with large barbecue pit, horseshoe pits, basketball court, Wi-Fi, bicycle rentals and an arcade. Pool: Memorial Weekend - Labor Day Weekend. Max pull thru: 60 feet.
Absolutely beautiful! Very clean! Super friendly staff! You can text to have firewood delivered to your site!
One of the best campgrounds we’ve stayed at! Tented with our 4 kids for 2 nights/3 days. Fast/convenient check in process. Large sites. Clean bathrooms and showers. Camp store with great service. Large/deep pool, fun playground, scheduled activities in the evening.
Very well maintained camp. Staff is friendly and very helpful. Beautiful views of mountains and creek.
One of the best KOAs in the country.
Awesome place! Great cabins with decks right on the river. Would definitely stay here again.
Great place, love it. Definitely will be back, not able to do it all in one trip. Campsite is very nice, kids love the creek (river) and pool.
