We are very excited to provide you and your family a memorable Iowa camping experience at the best rated Des Moines RV Park & Campground.

We promise you'll be pleasantly surprised. The park is nestled 1.5 miles north of I-80, off exit 106, amongst beautiful Iowa farm fields, in a peaceful rural setting, where the only thing you'll hear are the songbirds singing!

Des Moines West KOA Holiday

Spots kind of level, lots of choices of pull thru or buddy sites. Decent playground, water pillow for bouncing, fishing pond, dog park, swimming pool. Well maintained, lots of planned activities. KOA, so not a lot of nature. But no traffic or train noise. Full hook ups, including TV. 

Well run, lots of activities 

We stayed at the West Des Moines KOA for the Nationals Softball Tournament for my daughter in July. There were 6 families that stayed there with us. It was so much fun because we were able to all be either on buddy sites together and one had a patio site. The pool was refreshing for the girls and all of the activities kept them busy and having fun! All while being close to the city but the beauty of the country!!!

Clean, spacious and friendly

Very nice bathrooms, store, pool, etc as far as standard KOA amenities go. But very lacking on trees and very packed in. Site 31 is a “buddy site” and you are sitting on top of your neighbors with no privacy. It works pretty good if you actually have a “buddy”, but if you come alone it’s not private at all.

Very nice facilities, not great atmosphere

Not too far off the highway. Office is open until 7pm which was very helpful as we arrived a little later than expected. We’ll kept, clean bathrooms with space heaters running to ensure they’re warm during the December cold. Would love to visit in the summer as they have a ton of fun amenities for kids such as a pool, dunk tank, gem mining, ladder golf, horseshoes, jumping pillow, water balloon wars, basketball and more. Don’t pay attention to the highway signs that says they’re only open until October, they’re working on updating them. 

Now open year round

Stayed here overnight while heading to Colorado.  Extremely friendly staff, very clean site, easy check-in and points redemption, and tons of activities for the kids.  We would absolutely come back to stay for a full weekend!

Wonderful Quick Stay

QUIETEST KOA IN AMERICA. no hiway no traintracks or airport! Well kept.. bathrooms are a little scarce and WET.. but very nice little campground and VERY friendly staff.

Very laid back

Stayed here for five nights attending a family reunion. First time staying at a koa and it was awesome. From the site service firewood and food delivery, to the location and people who stopped here in their travels. I will definitely stay at a KOA again!
