Whether you are passing through on a long cross-country journey or looking for a reliable base camp to explore the region, the atmosphere is professional, quiet, and accommodating.
Location & Surroundings
Situated just off Interstate 75, this park offers a highly convenient location for RVers traveling the corridor between Knoxville and Chattanooga. Despite its proximity to the major thoroughfare, the sites are thoughtfully arranged to provide a sense of space and immersion in the Tennessee landscape. The surrounding town of Sweetwater offers a blend of historic rural charm and modern essential services, ensuring guests have quick access to local antique shops, dining, and grocery runs.

- Spacious KOA Patio sites with fire rings and upgraded outdoor furniture.
- A seasonal outdoor swimming pool and large jumping pillow for children.

Practical features like high-speed Wi-Fi, modern laundry facilities, and an on-site snack bar serving pizza and wings ensure a stress-free stay for all guests.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Exploring the local area is a major draw for visitors, with The Lost Sea Adventure located only a short drive away, offering tours of the largest underground lake in the country. Agriculture enthusiasts often head to the nearby Mayfield Dairy Farms for a famous tour and ice cream. Additionally, the park is a manageable drive from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, making it a viable alternative to the more crowded campgrounds located directly inside the heavy tourist corridors.
Who This Park Is Best For
This destination is perfectly suited for family vacationers who prioritize organized activities and high-quality facility standards. It also serves as an exceptional choice for interstate travelers seeking a safe, clean, and predictable overnight stop with effortless highway access. Because of the wide turns and spacious sites, it is particularly well-regarded by owners of large motorhomes who require easy navigation and full hookup reliability.

My husband and I took our 1 year old son here for our first family vacation. Deanna and Celeste made us feel extremely welcomed..The grounds were clean and delightful..the cabin was the perfect size. We will be returning again!

KOA was fantastic! They took us in on very short notice. The whole area is nicely set up and includes a little store where you can buy basic supplies and some food. There's even a game room with board games, a Pac-Man and a craft area. The cabin we stayed in was very tidy and well thought through. We had everything we needed, and it was very cute. 100% would go back!

5/5 then add 5 more! The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. The park was always clean, bathrooms immaculate, and play area was well kept. The campsite was spacious and tidy. They even decorated for Halloween, which my children loved seeing. The food was so good. The store had all the necessities needed. The park was quiet and everyone was so friendly. Definitely would visit again.

Stayed here 2 nights in late August. Friendly people helped us modify and existing reservation. The site was nice and we used corn hole and lawn area. Good access to visit friends in Telico. Bathrooms are exceptionally clean. We also got propane gas there and someone transported and filled tank for us. This is our second stay there and we will visit again.

The first few years we came here we absolutely loved it. The cabins are so nice and everything is clean and its pretty quiet. The staff was so welcoming. Especially the older guy that worked day and night and greeted you every day on his golf cart but he no longer works here as of 2025 . The people in the front are still super nice, the new ground workers don't seem as friendly, didn't greet us when we walked by. Still a very nice clean KOA. Much more quiet than Pigeon Forge

Heaven! Sweetwater KOA made the top of my list for 'must have' vacation spots, in the entire US. Karen the front desk professional was amazing. Very nice and friendly. The gift shop is well stocked, cutest things. Jazz was truly helpful by showing me options for my next stay. The laundry room was so clean and shiny. And the bathrooms were as well. Sweetwater KOA even had a concierge show me to my spot after I pulled in. This KOA is like stepping out of time in such a relaxing way. Truly delightful.

Extremely nice and caring staff with excellent communication! We only stayed for a quick overnight but it was a great experience. We're a 45ft class A, towing an F150, and had no problem navigating to the pull-thru site in the dark after hours (or getting out the next morning). Definitely appreciated the reflective yellow site signs that were visible from the front office on the 100ft pull-thrus! The sites were not super level, so this isn't an ideal overnight spot if you don't have auto-leveling, but it was fine for us (we had to use our jacks; air leveling wasn't sufficient). They had a jump pad and playground that the kids were super excited about, but it rained and we couldn't go. Next time! We'll definitely stop here again!

This is an amazing campgrounds, owners and staff go out of their way to help you.. it is very peaceful for some much needed RNR and it has alot to offer like memorable gifts to share with your friends and family... if you have young children there is so much for them to do, it will be something they will remember and talk about for years to come. We come back twice a year and is one of our favorite places

Stayed here for recently for a three night stay. Stayed in a studio cabin called the Fish Camp. Very comfortable bed. It had a great view of the lake and a nice porch to sit down and unwind. The owners Kathy and Tim made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Michael and Stacy were awesome as well.
Heather Nance
Wow! An incredible experience all around! Not only is this an immaculately clean campground located in an absolutely beautiful setting, but we felt totally at peace and welcomed like family as soon as we walked in the front door! The entire staff was attentive and caring. We will definitely visit again!! Thank you for a fantastic stay!
