Customer Reviews
Very poor experience. Short pitch not large enough to park a 16ft teardrop and car end to end. Pitch was right next to freeway, vehicle noise and diesel fumes were a problem. Site and pitch was very dusty due to use of gravel and dirt everywhere. Picnic Table top loose. Shower didn't drain properly so had to stand in an inch of other peoples dirty water, light and fan didn't work, cubicle partition loose, soap dish broken, flies everywhere on the walls, ceiling and counter tops. Very expensive. First experience of a KOA and it's not for me. If you have to go, pick the (even more expensive) river side pitches, at least you're away from the freeway then.
A nice KOA campground along the river with good walks. Campground is wide open and spacious with trees for shade on some sites. All sites are gravel. A few overnight cabins are available as are several teepee rent. There are tent sites available as well. Bathroom facilities were okay but needed some maintenance during this offseason. Large play area for kids and a pool that is seasonally open with a hot tub. Some traffic noise during the busy times a day but at night it was fairly quiet.
First time here. Staff very helpful and friendly. Road noise load but have been next to train tracks too. Quite park, clean. Enjoyed their Friday night get together for hot dogs and margaritas. Met some really nice people from NC,Wa. Would be nice to be some what closer to town. But all in all was a nice place. Would stay here again.
There are friendly people running the place. The facilities are showing their age but are kept clean. Not a place for tents but would work in a pinch. The sites along the river are nice. All the hookups are in good shape. There is a place to connect your TV for local channels. The pool is open until 10. Next to it is a kids pool. You will also find playground equipment around the campground.
We stayed for Memorial Day Weekend. We arrived before Memorial Day on Thursday and the park looked like a ghost town. There were only a handful of campers. As the days progressed the park filled up but was never at full capacity. The restrooms were “cleaned” daily however the shower curtains all had mold on them. The workers were all kind and busy all the time. It would be really nice if they just invested in some new shower curtains. There was a diet soda can on the floor of one of the showers. ****Edit: As far as the drinks and food offered, I had one drink but couldn’t have any of the food as it contained wheat a severe allergy of mine. I also purchased a $10 bag of ice so that more than covered the cost of my one drink. This park needs to invest in upgrades to the restrooms. It takes
