Campground Reviews

They really need to have an off-season rate for early spring when people are just passing through. It's VERY expensive for basic services only. The water at the dump station wasn't even turned on yet.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Hello your rate was $61 for water, electric, sewer, and 50amp. you had a full hookup site you could have used the sewer dump on your site with full hookups. We don't turn the water on at the dump station until we know no more freezing temps!

Great stay! Love that we had a full hook-up option early spring. Location was ideal for visiting Shades State Park and Turkey Run State Park. Less than 30 minutes drive to either. Hope to visit again

Very helpful, we had to come in a night early, because of snow coming, they were able to make that happen! Thanks again! Pam & Randy

Water was out…. Assume staff was working problem during office hours so nobody available to offer check in assistance. So myself and another camper drove around aimlessly trying to find our sites after going the wrong way on our pull throughs. AC power wasn’t very clean or stable at site 41.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thiss our off season. We do not have office staffed hours until we open for season in April. That is why we leave marked site maps in the nite box for people with clear directions how to access campsite. I am sure you read the sign on front door stating this. You were site 34 not 41 so maybe review

The campground is fine, but expensive. I also feel that even in the off season it is important to be available to answer the phone or respond quickly to messages, at least during business hours.

Spent the weekend there with our 2 youngest grandsons and really enjoyed the campground. Camp sites were nice and evenly spaced and had good rock base that was mostly level. The boys enjoyed the park immensely and kept the young ones occupied. Nice K-9 fenced in area that even had shared dog toys available. The youngest grandson really liked that the lowered basketball hoop too!

We have stayed here many times as it is half way between where we live and where we go. Always a nice experience.

Just stayed 2 Nites and it rained the whole time

The campground is occupied by a few unsightly unkept units. Unfortunately, this detracts from otherwise nice setting.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I looked at what site you were in, this is our off season, so we had 2 campers next to your site that we are in the process of gutting, cleaning up, and reselling. I am assuming that is what you are referring to. That will all be taken care of before we re-open for the season in April :)

I wasn't able to contact someone by phone when I had a question, but when we arrived there was a small packet with our name that told up everything we needed to know.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Yes you arrived in our off season months, we always leave reservation maps in the nite box for people as well as our off season/on site phone number to reach if needed as well :) Glad You enjoyed your stay!

Very easy to book and find our spot. Camp host communicated well. Very nice.

Staff was friendly but the campground just didn't rise to our level of expectations for a KOA. All the services at the site worked fine but everything was just tired. Laundry was not available after 5pm. We also filled three bags with dog poop on our site and even more at the dog park. At $65/night, this was way overpriced for what we have paid at other campgrounds of much higher quality.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Hello yes this is our OFF SEASON/December we do close that up at 5pm :) majority of days we don't even have a single overnight camper this time of year. As far as the dog poop, yes that would be nice if people picked up after their furkids

The only way we knew this was a KOA campground was the signage. We were very disappointed in comparison to other KOA Journey experiences.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

You were here as we were closing for the season, end of the season. SO I will take comfort in knowing all the amazing reviews I received all summer long during the summer months. Thank You tho, you were so nice to me in person too you could have mentioned when we talked what all you did not like.

Nothing special. Very expensive.
Nov 23, 2023
It’s clean, it’s small, it’s convenient for our travels. The staff are friendly.
Nov 21, 2023
Trees were an issue making turns and leaving site

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

But we went over and trimmed the limbs that you asked us to trim right away? so not sure what the issue is/was??

Very easy to access. Check-in quick. Quite at night and very little traffic noise.
Nov 18, 2023
Stayed one night, everyone was very friendliy, was great one night stay on way home after being gone for a month.

I believe the landscaping in between campsites needs to be pruned. So that when pulling out of the site we do not scrape our rigs or damage the landscaping.
Nov 14, 2023
This is the perfect halfway point from Iowa to Tennessee. It’s easily to find and easy to park. We usually don’t unhook out tow vehicle, so the pull through sites are great. Friendly people.

Awesome place to spend time at. Great hosts.

Don't think we will stay there anymore. We were on site 21. We could not pull out to the right without scrubbing tree limbs and really wasn't wide enough anyway. Had to go straight through another site to turn right. Also, no signs to tell us how to exit. On a good note it was decorated cute for Halloween.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Exit arrows are on the site map and we also have exit signs posted thru out the campground, one way in and one way out.

This is a great campground and the owner/manager was very helpful.

Great location, clean, friendly, and just everything you're looking for in a campground. We will be back again.
Nov 05, 2023
Clean, friendly and will stay there again!

While getting our propane tank filled the person noted that one of our tires was low. He filled it and strongly recommended that we have it looked at. We followed his advice and discovered that there was a significant leak.

Nice Comfortable and Quiet Park, Great Halloween decorations.

We had an extended stay for the whole month of October, not only was the owner so kind and helpful to my family, but the staff always went out of their way to help make our stay the best.

Pleasant as always. Service is great.

There are many advantages to this location. Very close to Turkey Run and lots of other entertainment. However, it appears as though the campground is way overdue for an upgrade. For the amount of money you pay to stay there, it was not impressive. The gaming room was shut down due to COVID (that was 3 years ago). Overall, just not that impressive.

Hello our game guy went out of business during Covid that is what happened, and finding a video game supplier has been non-existant with kids nowdays always doing games on their phones

The owner Jamie went above and beyond to accommodate me. The kampground was peaceful and a wonderful place for dogs. It was quiet, safe and clean with all the amenities. By far one of the nicest KOA’s I have ever stayed at!

Absolutely love this campground nice, quiet, beautiful, awesome people. It is our go to place to get away from everything.
Oct 24, 2023
We loved the shady sites. Thy were level and clean. We were there late in the season, so the pool was closed, but it looked nice. It's close to everything in the area. The office store was well stocked and everyone was friendly.

Really neat campground! Pros: - Beautifully maintained, lots of good trees, foliage features, and open areas. - Toys for children and lots of space to run and play. - Cats to pet in the main office/store. - Store has a lot of random of Odds-and-ends you may need and some neat antiques to look at, including something Squatchy... - AWESOME staff: We needed to replace a microwave and have it shipped ahead since we're on the road full-time now.  This campground let us ship it here and were very kind during the whole process.  There is a guy that works here nicknamed Cowboy, if I heard right.  He was so kind and even delivered our microwave to our site and offered to give us a hand if needed.  Readers - realize that people like this guy make or break an entire experience. The power of one person (although two in this case since the lady we worked with was great!) can completely transform an experience into something you're proud to be a part of.  His enthusiastic conversation with us was one of those moments we needed after a long and stressful travel day. Cons: - Occasional road noise, but that was pretty minimal. - Long rigs like ours will find it a bit challenging to get in and out of the spots. Take extra time to ensure you avoid the trees and bushes. Thank you - we will definitely return one day when coming back through this area.

I was able to reserve a site last minute and they accommodated me close to the restroom. The campground is quiet and relaxing, easy to locate and drive into. The restroom was very clean and well kept which is very important for me. The staff is amazing and very accommodating. I would recommend this KOA for any camper. I had drive thru and full hookup. I was a very happy camper. Thank you

Good campsite for short stays with RVs however some sites are sunken or super muddy. If it rains good luck moving your RV.
