This is by far the nicest park! The park is located on the Nolichucky River with beautiful long and wide sites. The owners and staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Bathrooms and laundry are cleaned several times a day. Firewood and ice are delivered directly to your site upon request. While here we had an Uncle pass away. My sister in law from Pennsylvania was able to rent one of the themed campers instead of staying at a hotel. She enjoyed her stay and we are planning a family get together here in the future. We don't have small children with us at this time but the playground is inviting. The attention to detail at this KOA is awesome!

We were following the KOA cancellation policy requiring 48 hours which would result in a $10.00 cancellation fee. The manager was not very nice and told us he would only refund us 4 days of our remains 8 days. I am sure he has rented the site for all 8 days by now because again it is a delightful spot Lesson learned Be aware that not all KOA campgrounds are going to adhere to the KOA cancellation policy before booking

With only 4 sites (3 back-in right on the road and 2 pull-through on backside of hill), you have plenty of privacy. This is a great stop if you need to catch up and do some shopping as it is close to a Walmart and Lowe's. The owners, who are full time RV'ers, happened to also be staying there while we were. Very helpful and friendly. They hosted a campfire evening and a taco evening for guests.

First of all, let me say that we lived our experience at Laughing Waters. It is a BEAUTIFUL space…read morewith ample room and stunning views. My issues were with communication and their lack of transparency. We made our reservation online and when we got our confirmation email, there was no check in or check out time. It is also not available on their website. When we called, we got a voicemail for the Hot Springs high school & laughing waters campground. Weird. But okay. Left a voicemail, never got a call back. There are also no check in instructions. So we arrived at 3:45 on the day of check in. No station, no instructions, nothing. So we call again and a woman answers and is slightly annoyed that we are calling. Informs us that it is self check in (whatever that means) and I s not until 4 pm because they all work. But since we are there we can go ahead and set up camp. Campers should be aware that while their photos depict largely wooded areas, they are not. The campsites are set up in a field on the edge of the river. So you do have trees, but they are largely at the edge of the river. A few campsites had more trees, but ours was in the field (blue heron site). This is fine, but the photos make it seem like you're in the woods. And I'm the summer, I would imagine that the direct sun is brutal. They advertise eco toilets - it's a porta-John. Literally nothing more. Also advertised a first aid station which we did not see, did not find signs for, nor was it in the confirmation email. We didn't need it. But if we had, who knows. A map of the property would have been nice. All in all. I would definitely recommend Laughing Waters. But I think they should be more transparent about what their property and procedure looks like.

We left feeling so many emotions, but renewed, grateful and inspired were the strongest. Check in was simple. I was sent an extremely well laid out itinerary for checking in, what to expect during our stay, procedures, directions. They thought of everything. I didn't need to ask a single question. We stayed in the Pine cabin. I was booking 2 weeks in advance, so I had to take what was open and change my dates to stay during the week. Initially I had my sights set on the cabin with a screened in porch, but this sweet cabin was perfect for just the 2 of us. I can't say enough good things about our stay. The view from our little front porch, paired with the symphony of frogs, cicadas, and other wildlife was intoxicating. It was my favorite spot to eat breakfast, have my morning coffee, and then tea after lunch and dinner. It was still cool enough at night to open the windows and enjoy being sung to sleep by nature. Our private, large hot tub filled with mineral water from the hot springs was heaven on earth. It really did ease our achey joints and my skin seemed to love it. There's just enough of an opening in the trees above, in this secluded little haven, to be able to see the stars at night. I thoroughly enjoyed floating on my back, gazing at the stars at night. Then again in the morning, while the light, cool rain washed over the top of me. Everything about our stay was sensory heaven for me. The cabin was well stocked with what we may need. Very clean and cozy. By bringing our own bed linens and towels we saved $35 off of our cleaning fee. Cell service in the community is really spotty, so I was relieved to have wifi access in the cabin. For some reason, we figured out that we got the best connection on the couch by the patio doors. While we wanted to unplug for the week, we still needed to be able to check on our feral roommates that we call grandchildren. I hope my review inspires others to travel to Hot Springs. This community is still recovering from Hurricane Helene and could use our support. Everywhere we went, we were met with such friendliness and warmth. We heard several stories of resilience and of a community coming together for the greater good. They deserve more help than what they've received so far.

It's just 4 tight spots next to the gas pumps on the road leading in. Don't think you're putting your slides out if you have a neighbor. Also, very, very noisy and busy. Stray dogs barking, tons of loud engines revving by. Wish they could have put this in a better area. The area was clean, but also lots of cop and sheriff activity going on. Pretty pricey also to not even offer water anywhere. Wouldn't stop at this one again. Also, kiosk wouldn't work to check in. Husband had to go in to ask for the electric to be turned on.
