I really want to recommend Des Moines West... and this is the third of fourth time we've been there. The remodeling of the office/store seems to be interminable... the shutting down of the whole camping lot near the office (and bathrooms and showers!) and shuttling us off to the "distant realms" where taking a shower necessitated a long, cold walk... and then NO HUNT BROS PIZZA... it's tough.

We made a reservation in the afternoon and arrived two hours later to nothing. No campsite assigned. No instructions where to camp. After driving the entire vacant camp ground where all sites were closed we found a row of sites at the end of the park. Not anywhere near what is expected at KOA.

By far, this is one of the best KOAs. We plan our stops to include this one! Bathrooms are excellent! It includes so many fun activities!

The staff here is amazing! They came right away when we needed a jump start on our car. They are always friendly and helpful!

Staff is fantastic. the sites are great, this was one of the only stops I have been at where I barely had to level my RV. Clean sites with a good family fun environment which is neat to experience.

Well maintained, looks like it’s ready for winter use. Liked the smokeless fire pits and Adirondack chairs at some of the sites.

Up until my stay last weekend, I would’ve given y’all five stars straight across-the-board! Upon checking in, on Friday, October 27th, I was informed by the lady at register, that the office/country store would be closing at 5 o’clock, and they would be taking pizza orders until 4:30 PM. I called at about 4:08 PM to place my order, I was greeted rudely, and didn’t even receive a thank you!

Very quiet location about 2 miles off interstate. Nice amenities (including family shower rooms). The campground was not full so there was no waiting for showers. Instead of crowding us all together, the reception desk spaced us out which was very nice. The showers were very clean and look freshly updated.

Spotless rest rooms especially the “family” ones. Wide sites, new picnic tables. This place gets 10 stars. This KOA is in the Top Ten Class.

It was a very friendly KOA, with garbage pick- up, and pizza delivery which was especially nice after a long travel day!!!

Clean campground and everyone was helpful and courteous.

For such a large campground and how busy it was, I was surprised that the office/store was only open from 10-5, especially on a Saturday. We arrived after 5 so we had an envelope with the map and route to our assigned spot. Many of the sites were not labeled and we were a little uncertain if we were in the correct site. Other than that the campground was clean and cared for.

We were visiting family and ut was a perfect lication. The family members that came out ro the campground to visit us had fun, and our 4 year old grandson played In the park for hours.

Workers were very helpful and friendly. We loved our patio spot. Texting with questions and ordering pizza and fire wood was awesome. Can’t wait to come back again.

The staff were absolutely the best, very accommodating, gave me the perfect spot! Such a very peaceful place, highly recommended! Very clean campground, only 2 miles from I80. Thank you guys!

We really enjoyed our stay. Loved the activities for the kids. Price was aligned with other private rv parks and this was much more enjoyable for kids. Staff were friendly! We will be back!

3 night stay was just fine. Late Oct. so just a couple handfuls of rigs/people staying. Offered some nice/fun Kid outside Activities for the few that were staying in the park. The Women's bathroom/shower room looked & felt upgraded. Only 'ding' to the stay: Door sign to women's bath/shower room states 'checked & kept up' (something to that affect), yet there was no evidence of that over our stay.

Excellent location. I just wished all KOA'S were held to at least a minimum standard.

Maybe I was missing something buy I was sure my tent site was supposed to have a cable hook up and I was unable to find it. So you should update your site description

We arrived after the office closed. I had informed them I’d be a late arrival. When we got there, our space number was listed where they said it would be, but no map was apparent. It was dark, I had to walk around with a flashlight to find the space. No signs directed our approach. A kind camper showed me the maps in an unmarked box in the laundry room. Other koas will provide a map with direct

I drove from Central Pennsylvania to Oregon in my truck with my dog. Iowa was just a place to spend the night. I've never really thought of it as a “vacation destination”. It's flat. There are farms. It's looks just like central PA. :). But this KOA was so beautiful. I rented one of the cabins. It looked out on a small pond. It's so quiet here. You don't hear the highway or any road traffic. I stopped here on the way out and the way back. If I had more time I would have spent a few days here. Absolutely beautiful. The sites are clean and well manicured. The grass is lush. The dog parks are in the middle and easy to get to. Staff was friendly. After hours check in was easy. There is a decent grocery store about 10 minutes away.
