Abilene KOA

Small site, site very uneven, can hear noise from highway. Front desk staff very nice, (so were the neighbors). OK for overnight stay

The tent sites are next to the motel that Is next to the koa. The lights from the motel are super bright and light up the site. You will also be right next to the highway and be able to hear it all night. Bring ear plugs!!!

Tidy, warm facilities, nice amenities.

This is not by any stretch a good campground.  That said, it is right by I-20 (you can hear the traffic) and there are not very many alternatives in the area.  This KOA has quite a few permanent residents (old campers with stairs and decks...) which, in my mind, gives it a little "creepy" feel.  The sites are gravel and are reasonably level, conducive to not unhooking for the night.  Not all sites have fire rings.  Some sites do not have the table on gravel but on grass.  

We will stay here again--if we have no other choice.

I made reservations for this campground 2 weeks in advance for an overnight layover. At the time of the reservation I advised Angelica that my mother was on a walker, not able to move around very well @ which time she advised no “pre-reservations of spots” can be implemented, all spots are assigned @ time of check-in. We get here to check in & when I asked if we could be placed close to the front for my mom to get close to showers I was told there was nothing that could be done, they were full for the weekend (we checked in on Thursday) and we’re not given any option of any alternative solutions to the situation, just simply told “you don’t understand the system assigns the campsites & there’s nothing they can do”. Before hooking up my sister flagged Angelica down & asked her about moving @ which time she replied we could go ask one of the campers that came in behind us that was a few spots closer to the office if they’d be willing to switch spots. After we were completely hooked up & Abigail went back to the office to let the manager know we were less than happy, the Mgr did call to offer us a closer site that was a back-in site that we were more than welcome to move to. TOO LITTLE TOO LATE! I definitely will not stay here again nor will I recommend this campground to anyone!

I stayed one night at this campground and overall it was nice. KOA’s are not the cheapest place but they’re always safe which is what I needed.

Oof. Landed here back in May after a long day of driving and not having another other quick options.

Location is rough. As you can see in one of my photos, it is right next to a seedy Motel 6 and the neon light from the sign doesn't quit all night. It's loud too, as it is off a main road. Sites are smashed together and privacy isn't an option. Camp host seemed decent enough, didn't spend much time talking though, just made a reservation over the phone. All the standard KOA fixings are accounted for. Still, this is not a nice place to camp, especially if you're in a tent, and we paid a lot more than we should have for what we got.

Skip it.

We stayed here many years ago for a reunion close by, the owner/park host was not a rule bender at all and was strict. We stayed in cabins and had a good time while we were there.
