Campground Reviews

We arrived after dark and the office was closed. Getting a key to our cabin was easy. The cabin was clean and came with some unexpected bonus items. The map to the cabin was easy to follow. Our overnight Stay was great. We had a river edge cabin which was great when the sun rose.

We were very disappointed when told there was no cable. The KOA book states that there is cable at the campground. It wasn’t after checking in we were told no cable.

Beautiful location in the river. However, need some serious work in the Arab spots. Ours was a muddy mess. Needs gravel!

Had a great time! Cabin was clean and cozy. The bathrooms by our cabin were clean and nice. The only reason for a 4 star was for the other bathrooms, especially the one by the pavilion, it had clogged toilets and wasn’t clean. The prices continue to go up every year. Otherwise it was a relaxing weekend. The creek is always nice and relaxing to listen to. The mines were nice also. Be back next ye

We only planned to stay for an overnight but wish we could have stayed longer. It's really not far off I-90 and made for a nice one stay. Very nice location by creek with lots of trees. Staff was very friendly and kept the park clean and looking very good.

Solar Lodge 3 - cabin was nice. air conditioners didn't work very well. Fridge/freezer too small. Grill was all rusted, maintenance swapped it out for me. Check in efficient. New garden behind the store was awesome. LIve music was great. Pool was dirty. Love the tubing and mining.

The good: deluxe tent sites, great staff, Saturday live music, kids’ activities The not-so-good: a pervasive small of kerosene or some other fuel was noticeable all weekend near the solar lodges and deluxe tent sites, super smoky, smoldering fire (wet wood?) at the s’more pit blew into my tent all night long, poison ivy all around tent site 97

A large campground, many sites and cabins-some a river to float, this KOA has beautiful grounds. Across the street from gem mining which was a fun activity; the mining costs in addition to the pricey site costs. Saturday night concert was nice, and the pool and camp store were also good. Food trucks on site were also helpful, and thankful for member appreciation weekend to offset costs 1 night!

We had a great time. Staff is super friendly. We go yearly to this location, sometimes multiple times a year and we love it here. We have stayed in tents, cabins with no bathrooms, birds of paradise cabin, astronomer's cabin, mine cabins, and this time the tree house. The location never disappoints with the river tubing, pool, mining, disc golf, and other activities. Can't say enough good things.

Prior to arrival we would be on site 65. We had family and friends that were to be on site 68 and 69, one has to cancel. The front desk told us we were moved to 68, which was a pull in. We have a tow behind camper, can’t pull in, river front site. All weekend 65 was empty. Our friends had to move their spot to help accommodate, after we were offered a smaller spot without a patio. Desk= No Help

Second stay at Herkimer Diamond KOA and it was just as great as the first one. One of our favorites. Thank you!

Loved the cabins (mine side) - very clean, and had everything we needed. Will stay again.

Lovely park. One of my favorites. Bathrooms could use a little TLC. Staff are super nice. The entertainment was great. Food truck was great!

We love this campground. We use Herkimer as a first stop and last stop on trips from Vermont our west.

No TV cable and nowhere in our paperwork did it say that a Roku was needed. Had to borrow one from the office. Women's bathroom in the office building needed cleaning. Bugs, dirt, leaves, toilet paper all over. Prices are high, too.

Very nice campground on the river. We enjoyed our one night stay and would definitely stay at this campground again when in the area!

A beautiful and well laid out resort like campground. However my low rating is attributed to what I can only assume a lack of staff issue. Upon arrival the first thing announced was there was no food. None in the store, no cafe, no coffee. When I attempted to do laundry it was apparent that the KOA staff had occupied all the machines and then went home for the day. The store closed at 5:00 not 6.

Expensive, narrow lots. Nice and clean but not worth the money, will not be back.

The park is beautiful and I wish we could have enjoyed our stay. There are no indications on the website that everything would be closed down on 9/5-no pizza, icecream, mining, shopping. This was disappointing. We weren’t escorted to site and the number was missing off the sign so it was not great getting to our site. Beautiful setting but staff was indifferent and hard to reach. Bathroom dirty.

We loved the campground! Staff was friendly, grounds were clean and there was lots to do. We loved tubing right out of the campground.

Had a blast! Every Labor Day weekend my extended family and I go camping at a different campground. We enjoyed Herkimer so much that we actually chose to back next year instead of trying somewhere new! We're already booked and looking forward to next year's memories and experiences.

We had a bad experience. The horrible part of our stay was the conditions and cleanliness of the place. The bathrooms and showers were always extremely messy and dirty.....toilets clogged, paper towels everywhere, floor muddy....not nice. The worse part was the dump station....clogged and overflowing! can you picture it? Can you picture using it only to see your waste overflowing? Horrible!

Stay was awesome Travis the Manager was great. Only problem we had was we were supposed to get 25% discount off our homewares but for some reason the guy at the counter only haves us 15%. I only checked receipt after we left.

Been coming to the Herkimer KOA on Labor Day Weekend for 10-12 years with a bunch of friends and family. We all agree that many upgrades have occurred over the years,But Not to substantiate the random fees and price hikes that have occurred. We’ll be looking elsewhere for next years experience. Thanks for the memorie$$$ , Mike Dennie

We have been coming Labor Day Weekend for numerous years and we always appreciate how accommodating you guys are. I love the new Garden Area you've added - it is a great spot to hang with family of all ages. Suggestions: Garden should be a non-dog area for numerous reasons and there should be playground equipment added for younger children ages 5 and below.

Much to expensive. After paying a lot for the site most of the childrens activities were extra. The lawn needed to be mowed before we got there not when we were leaving.
Sep 05, 2023
We have been coming for holiday weekends for 19 years, I would say the last 5 years have been a disappointment. There were no activities, the grass was not mowed(very gross), and staff are not as friendly as they once were. the prices are outrageously high! We keep coming because of the creek only!!

We stayed in the windmill lodge. It was small for 5 adults but we made it work. The large deck and additional patio was great. It was very nice. Well kept and clean. The employees were polite and helpful. We had a great time.

We really loved our buddy site location just wish it had sewer hookup there. Dump station was an overflowing mess, not sure you could do anything to help it or not.

Nice place to spend near running creek. Staff was very welcoming and made sure our stay was good.

This place is amazing on all levels! Very clean, great food, great family fun! Smash burgers at the canteen, beautiful barn for venues, amazing dinners at the Minors' Table which will be open for brunch on Mother's Day... also a beer garden near the pool and creek as well as an ice cream shop. There is no need to leave once you arrive. Golf cart rentals and carts are available as well.

This a first time for all of us and was different. I had fun even though the rain had to remind us that we're powerless when nature brings the rain. Several diamonds were found including several decent sized ones. Prices in the shop were a bit steep for my budget but the little experience I've had with Crystals kinda shows what we all know...quality is not cheap. I do wish I had brought a few larger rocks back as I now have the means to cut into them. I did grab a few that should look nice after a session in the rock tumbler.
