Cherokee/Great Smokies KOA

Cherokee/Great Smokies KOA is a full-service campground located on Big Cove Road in Cherokee, NC, bordered by the Raven Fork River on one side and three tribal trout ponds on the other, offering convenient access to fishing in Cherokee Tribal Waters.

The facility provides multiple accommodation options (RV sites with full hookups, tent sites, and cabins), an on-site tackle shop for fishing permits and gear, and extensive amenities including indoor/outdoor pools, playgrounds, and a game room.

Anglers can fish directly from the campground's stocked ponds or access the surrounding 30-mile stream system managed as one of the Eastern U. S.' s largest private fisheries.
