Enjoyable stay

I've recently gotten into camping. I love it, and love KOAs, I've camped at a few and they're great. My grandson enjoyed the waterslide.

Great amenities and festive atmosphere

We stayed over Labor Day weekend on our family’s First RV trip. Nice location and facilities with good amenities. A bit expensive. Quite noisy for our site. The firewood was not very easy to catch fire though.

Great for families with younger children

This campground is a child's paradise.  We were here with our 5 year old granddaughter.  There were activities for her to do all day long.  She loved the playground, pool, ice cream, wagon ride and crafts.  She made many friends at the playground and pool.  There were numerous friend and family groups camping in the same area.  I gave this a 4 star because even though it was great for families I felt we were packed together in a tight area.  Vehicles didn't fit well in the sites with the campers and/or tents.  We had 2 vehicles and we did make it work.

Awesome amenities, challenge for bigger rigs

Love all this campsite has to offer with amenities! Beautiful area as well. But there are alot of trees that make it very challenging for larger rigs. There are a handful of sites that would be easy to access, I recommend calling first. We have a 43ft 5th wheel.

Fun Family Campground

Great campground to stay with family! Campground was kept very clean, even though it is an older campground. Only complaint would be that sites are close together!

Great Campground - Family Friendly

First time visiting this location. Campground is very clean, the staff is super friendly, and there are lots of things to do! Pool, waterslide, mini golf, playgrounds and so much more! They also have themed weekends for the kids, and plenty of activites! Bathrooms are clean, showers are hot! The sites are close together, but that's okay, because everyone keeps to themselves. All in all its a pretty great place!

River tubing!

This is an older campground but well cared for.  Because of covid there aren't weekend bundles for activities and everything needed to be purchased separate.  One of the nice things is that they can charge everything back to the site so there's no need to carry money.  The pool was nice and the waterslide was fun but the river tubing was the best.  They shuttle you out and pick you up.  The sites are pull through but narrow.  We knew our neighbors so we parked the trucks on one site so we could all sit around the fire.

Nice facility

It was raining the night we stayed. Bathrooms are centrally located, but I was surprised how few stalls there were in the men's bathroom.. There were 2 in the facility that served at least 60 sites. They bathrooms were clean, and shower water was hot, but waiting to poop in the morning is never fun. Very dog friendly, and a bunch of young families due to all the activities offered for kids. WiFi was very spotty, probably due to all the kids and bad weather.
