Travelers Rest-North Greenville KOA

What an amazing place. The staff are extremely nice and everyone staying in the campground was very quiet and respectful. The playground was in great shape and my kids really enjoyed playing on it. There is a small creek that runs through the campground and it was so peaceful being able to enjoy a campfire with the sound of the bubbling water almost every night. Call staying here we were able to visit all of the attractions in downtown Greenville as well as Asheville and the Biltmore. It’s perfectly located as well! My husband also works remotely, and was able to use our AT&T hotspot reliably the whole time.

We came to visit the Greenville area and this seemed like a nice spot other than the state parks and they were full. Actually, that was a good thing because the sites are along a flowing creek. Managers Terri and Bill couldn’t have been nicer. Upon arrival we were escorted to our site and assisted in backing in. The managers are engaged daily with the guests. I would stay again when in the area and skip the hassle of the state parks.

We camped here March 11-13 in our 36'8" Ventana motorhome when temperatures dropped to 22 degrees at night! We had the last spot, #44, one of 2 pull-throughs. There are also a few cabins on site. It's almost impossible to get reservations for weekends here unless way in advance. It's small, but beautiful and clean, alongside of a creek. The new managers (very friendly, hospitable, and recently moved from Wyoming) said that KOA had purchased 53 acres next door and were planning to expand the campground. Most back-in sites are alongside the creek. All have a fire pit and table. Many sites also have a swing, as ours did. There is a bath house at the main office and another halfway down. Both had laundry room , shower, and 2 toilet stalls. We didn't use the laundry or shower facilities, but they were spotless. The other bath house is at the small recreation area where there is a large outdoor checkers set, basketball goal, recreation building, and pool. A small children's playground is nearby,as well as a dog run with a dirt floor. We've tried many times to get weekend reservations here and this was our first success. We'd love to make it our place to stay when visiting family. The only reason not to give it a 5 star rating was b/c we only got 1 bar on our Verizon cell phones and hotspot. The guest wifi was in and out and we received terrible cable hook-up reception so used our antenna for a better picture on the television.

The grounds feel tired and old with little up keep. It could feel so much nicer with pruned trees, cleaned up river banks, new concrete pads . The staff is super friendly and helpful. WiFi needs some rehab. Verizon Cell service in this area is disappointing too. We work while traveling and we were unable to have sufficient signal with our hot spot and slack WiFi .

I absolutely love this place. The owners are fantastic family. They are constantly working to make your experience as pleasant as possible. The grounds are meticulously manicured, wonderful environment, beautiful scenery, quiet and very friendly. This will definitely be a regular place to stay in our camping future. If I could give six stars I would. I would go out of my way to stay here in the future and quickly became a destination for us as opposed to just to stop.

All I can say is “Wow!” I’ve never stayed at a KOA but I’m certain I’ll be staying here again. I booked in order to be close to a half marathon I ran in Greenville. Was originally booked at Paris Mtn. State Park but was advised by friends that my 34 foot trailer would be difficult to maneuver up to campground.

Did a search and found this campground. Everything from arrival has been way above par compared to ANY campground I’ve stayed (and that includes Disney’s). Julie, who checked me in was informative and joyful to talk to. The owner, Jason took me to site and even spotted me in.

Most campgrounds don’t allow cleaning of campers but this campground offers the service at a very fair rate. The owner’s son, Mason did an outstanding job and helped me remember my camper is white and not “Georgia Pollen Green”.

Want LP refill? Set your empty at end of your site during day and it’s returned full (charged to your credit card).

And on top of all this, the campground is beautiful, up against a creek, peaceful and obviously well run. Again, my only word is “WOW”.

This is a great park. It's a wooded setting and most of the sites back up against a small stream. There were trees and bushes between some of the sites to make them a bit more private.

The family that runs it is very nice, and super helpful, as were the work campers in the office.

A bit of highway noise near the front of the park, but not bad at night.

Verizon signal is a bit weak, but antennas or booster make it usable.
