“Fun place to stay, with a few problems”

KOA Campground

Aug 19, 2007

We were tired of setting up our tent and decided to rent a cabin here. It is unfortunate they charge you for the extra room in it, for the kids, and then on top of that charge you for each child. It was an okay site, cabin 7, but the two cabins on either side and ours had to put up with the RV dump station directly in front of our cabins. Not good placement at all.

Good things: Clean cabin nearby whitewater attractions. Hot breakfast served (extra charge) out in a cook shack. Hot tub can be reserved for 1/2 hour. Friendly hosts with lots of smiles and information. Good scenery. Clean bathrooms. Everyone quieted down nicely at 10 PM.

Could use improvement: Need to limit tv time in the rec room. It rained, so kids were in there, and a man hogged the tv set all day watching golf. Prices seemed high, considering you could get a real motel room for the same cost. Playground equipment kind of shabby. Need more seating on porch, for rainy days. Some cabins had enough seating for 2 or 3 people, ours had one little chair.

This is a nice campground, with good, clean restrooms and shower facilities. However, for what you get, the prices were very high. Customer service was lousy, also. Any more than two people per campsite requires additional fees. A family with children will pay additional fees for each child. A simple tent site with four people will cost at least $30 per night. I was there with a Girl Scout troop that was camping there. We had a tent site and an RV site adjacent to each other. We reserved and paid for three nights at check in. Four people left before the third night. We vacated the tent site before check out time. The staff said that they would "think about" refunding the third night. We took the tent down and cleaned the site prior to check out time, but they still refused to refund the money. Cell phone service there was spotty. We asked to use their phone to make a toll free call. They refused, saying the phone was for business use only. They did not go out of their way to make the stay enjoyable, and for the prices, this place isn't worth it.
