Description: The CG contact number is 423-623-9004. This is an old CG. The location is exit 432B on I40 in Tenn. Go East 1.5 miles to KOA drive. There is a sign. It is a right turn. Go to the end of the road. The CG is very hilly and very wooded. There is a pool, and a small play ground. There is a pond for fishing. If you want to use SAT TV, ask for site 21. There are pull through and back in sites. 20 sites are 50 AMP the rest are 30 AMP. About 2/3 the CG has sewer. The CG is about 30 miles from the Pigeon Forge area.

Pros:
Cons:

This review is based on a 1 night stay in September 2010. I will stay here again only if I am desperate. Overall the CG has a worn appearance. The sites are gravel/dirt. The sites are not level. My right front wheel is off the ground! This was site 21. I almost needed a ladder to get in and out of the coach. Once off the gravel/dirt the sites are really sloped. Power is minimally acceptable. My power transformer saved the day. Staff is friendly and helpful. The CG is on the side of a mountain. Trees are everywhere. The CG roads are narrow with tight turns. The trees are not trimmed and there are many low hanging branches. The pool was closed and it is 90 degrees today! For the price paid, I expect a resort atmosphere. What I got was an old CG charging outrageous prices.
