Beautiful sites right on the river. Friendly and attentive staff and the facilities were very clean. Also, great Wi-Fi and Verizon signal. Townsend is definitely the peaceful, quite side of Great Smokey Mountain National Park.

The Townsend/Great Smokies KOA is the BEST KOA in the franchise. The BEST campground in the Smokies region. We have stayed over the years in our own tent, own camper, and on this visit in one of their newly renovated cabins. We stayed in DC-19 which is one of the more tiny house style designs. It is superb! Immaculate and beautifully appointed. Pet friendly. Recommend highly!

We had so much fun. The camp cabins are clean, well-appointed, and cozy. The staff was all extremely friendly and helpful. We had to cut our stay short due to major winter storm, and they made it so easy to change our reservations. Will definitely be coming back again.

We return to the Townsend, TN/Great Smokies KOA every few years and each time have our expectations exceeded. We have stayed in various cabins, as well as in our own camper and tent over the years. The sites/accomodations are always pristine, well-maintained, exactly as described and often better than the website. The staff is awesome! Friendly, helpful. Always feel safe at night here, too.

The KOA in Townsend, TN, is one of my favorite campgrounds on the Quiet Side of the Smokies. Our campsite overlooked the river; what a lovely setting to ring in the new year. We will be back in the spring.

We love Townsend KOA. From check in to check out. The workers are so friendly. Being by the creek is the best spot!

We stay every year around 10-14 days at the Townsend KOA and this year was the same great experience as always. The staff are great and the place is clean.

The staff is wonderful ! So helpful and friendly !

One of the best KOAs! The staff was super friendly and very helpful. Just watch out for Jack as he is quite the jokester. The dog park was away from the sites for the early morning barks that my dogs are guilty of in which was good and could use some obstacles or something. The private showers were really nice and clean! The RV sites were nicely private and the natural scenery was awesome.

Quick last minute decision to spend the NYE weekend camping and GSM KOA happened to have a spot open right on the river!! Yea!! Great/helpful employees and super restroom/laundry facilities. A+++

We stayed in a deluxe cabin, full bath, queen bed, and set of bunk beds, and it was very nice. The check in and out process was super easy. My only reason for giving four stars instead of five is because the bunk beds are very short. We were three adults staying there and anyone over 5’6” would probably be uncomfortable in the bunk beds. It would be perfect for a family with small kids though.

After camping 3 nights each at 74 KOAs, Townsend is our new favorite, special enough to make reservations for our two children's families when all 12 of us return this coming summer so we can enjoy the water. The staff are exceptionally friendly/supportive, adequately separation between campers, the park is very well policed, nice dog park, great restaurants, and hiking trails nearby.

We had a nice patio site for our 35’ MoHo. There are great amenities for families, with varied playground structures and the creek to entertain kids. Fenced mulched dog park. Enjoyed the birdsongs in the mornings. Sites a little close, and the exit lane is a tight turn, but other than that a great place to stay. Will definitely be back.

Stayed in deluxe cabin. They would only let us have 6 towels. Not enough for 2 nights for 6 people. Our smoke alarm starting going off at 12:00 am texted maintenance nobody was there. Took off ceiling so we could sleep. Got text from them at 8:30 am. Need service 24 hrs! Not very helpful in the office when we asked questions! Should not charge extra fee for more than 2 adults or more than 1 car.

Nice campground-clean,convenient, playground, friendly, helpful, quiet during quiet hours, and no annoying golf carts. Sites are just too close and our site was particularly tight with a tree and a large rock and a ditch across from us. Took an employee and another guest numerous tries to get us parked. While the rock is a nice “natural” touch, it makes parking unnecessarily difficult - move i

The deluxe cabin was great. We had all the amenities of home in a beautiful mountain setting. Close to everything.

We have been staying here for years and each visit is better than the last. The cabin was clean and well appointed. The location on the river was perfect. We will be back!

Their photos definitely need to be updated! We were so surprised at how nice the cabin was, we were sortof expecting just a plain ole cabin with basics and basically ended up in a super nice rustic hotel room. I wish I had taken my own pictures, it was bright and clean and comfy. The location allowed us a gorgeous drive to Gatlinburg and pigeon forge. We were also very close to Cades Cove which was also beautiful. Very happy with our stay overall
