IF YOU NEED TO STAY CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET, DON'T STAY HERE! The staff at this campground isn't helpful. The bathrooms are not cleaned often enough, and the advertised WIFI doesn't work most of the time. The male staff member who manages the WIFI knows nothing about technology and doesn't help campers who cannot connect to it.

Advertised in 2018 Good Sam Guide as partner, but only honored KOA or military discount. Overnight stay would have been nicer if Park staff were more customer friendly upon check in. I understand the need to stress rules for a few inconsiderate folks, but excessive rules, cancellation policy read to me after I'm already there and threats to throw me out before I check in are a turn off. Park was nice, friendlier staff would make it nicer.

A nice campground in the middle of town. The usual layout of a KOA with multiple sites. Clean and well-maintained. Lots of things to do for about every age group. Restrooms are clean and well-stocked. The staff keeps the grounds free of trash. Sites are spacious and well-organized with seasonal campers toward the back of the campground and short-term visitors near the front. The camp store has a few items but is not over-crowded with things. (There is a Super Walmart a mile away and a small... Read More

(There is a Super Walmart a mile away and a small strip mall next door with a gate in the dividing fence for the convenience of the campers.) There are trains that run sporadically. Would return.

This KOA Kampground is clean, safe and quiet. It offers lots of amenities such as a pool, horseshoes, shuffleboard, a playground, and a dog walk area. The staff was helpful and friendly. The campground has lots of trees, but they are cut high enough not to scratch your roof. Mix of driveables, towables, cabins, and permanent homes. The roads are tight, but staff escorts you to your site. Kids and pets are welcome. Our campsite was #84 and was a pull through site. It was a paved site with a concrete... Read More

This KOA Kampground is clean, safe and quiet. It offers lots of amenities such as a pool, horseshoes, shuffleboard, a playground, and a dog walk area. The staff was helpful and friendly. The campground has lots of trees, but they are cut high enough not to scratch your roof. Mix of driveables, towables, cabins, and permanent homes. The roads are tight, but staff escorts you to your site. Kids and pets are welcome. Our campsite was #84 and was a pull through site. It was a paved site with a concrete pad and picnic table dedicated to our spot. We had full hookups including sewer and 50 amp service. The site was mostly level with a slight slope on each side to avoid pooling water. Other spots are grass. The wi-fi reached our camping spot as they have repeaters set up around the site; however, it was slow during the day and VERY SLOW at night when more people were using it. Our AT&T mobile & data service was excellent, though. They also offer free cable, which we did not use. Getting into the campground with our 40' 5th Wheel was very tight as there is a fence around a couple of small cabins that we came very close to swiping; however, my husband is a great maneuverer and he did great. Note to driver: swing wide right, watch your left side. They have a laundry room, restrooms and recreation room on site but we did not use any of those services. Store is sparsely stocked, but is open 8am-8pm. There is a dumpster for trash on the way out of the campground and a recycling can for aluminum cans only. This is a great location for access to necessities. It is right off highway 301, but we didn't hear highway noise. Walmart is located less than 5 minutes away. This KOA offers propane or there is a Tractor Supply & Ace Hardware nearby that also offer propane. There is a laundromat very close by or they have laundry services on site. Many fast food and grocery store choices are nearby as well as gas stations. The only negative: There are train tracks nearby that you can hear the loud, sometimes never-ending whistle at all hours of the day and night. We would definitely stay here again, even with the train noise.
