Campground Reviews

We like this campground because it is quiet and clean. There were about 40 of us gathered for a family reunion. What better place than at this KOA. Thanks to the management for taking care of us. We'll be back.

The grounds were very nicely kept, very clean and large pool. Well stocked store! Great place to stay if you are planning on hiking or kayaking. The staff was very helpful with locations of everything. The permanent people are friendly and wave when we walk . Extremely quiet and peaceful, just what we needed!

Upon arrival we were told that there was wifi but good luck connecting to it. Why advertise it if it doesn't work? We were also downgraded from a pull thru site to a back in site and was charged the same amount! My 18 year old son drove up after work and was not permitted in the campground, was told I didn't have a reservation there. I had to go to the office and practically beg to get him in.

The camping spots were good, the bathrooms were clean but very ancient, quiet time was not enforced, a large ethnic group came and partied till well after midnight making it impossible to sleep, this was not the owners fault but they should have enforced their policies. The owners also weren't very friendly having yelled at our children for minor infractions,all in all I would stay again

It was our first time with a Travel Trailer and First Time at a KOA site. I’m glad we chose Kinzua East. The owner and staff were incredible . The bathhouse was spotless and well stocked Gary right from our arrival was amazingly helpful to us Newbies. The price was perfect for the offerings. We will be back! Thank you , Gary & Sons.

Actually, a nice campground, and nice person at the desk, but the office closed early on Friday night, and they don't open until 9 on Saturday. I placed my cabin key in the drop box, as I had to leave at 8. No refund as of now.

Gary & Gary are exactly what you want. Great campground, nice amenities, super friendly. Looking forward to making back out there again. Cabins are very spacious & spaced apart nicely. Great Vacation thanks to KINZUA EAST KOA.

We enjoyed the helpful and friendly family that operate this KOA. The campground was very tidy and safety was a big concern since wildlife can occasionally visit the site and we were made aware of this possibility as soon as we entered the grounds. All of the information about keeping safe was advised by the team.

Very friendly staff and quite helpful. We upgraded our site to one with sewer, which was helpful. Seemed odd that the stones from the old fire ring remained after a new one was built.
Jul 25, 2018
Quiet peaceful campground. Sites were large and shaded but a little challenging to back into. Kids had a good time, but there were no activities for kids.
Jul 24, 2018
Owner extremly nice. Campground needs a lot fixing things up. Could be a really nice campground with some work.
Jul 23, 2018
Owner is very nice. Campground condition ok but not quite up with other koa's I've stayed at. Had a nice shaded back in site. I would stay again but not on my list of favorites.

Not much for the kids to do, not very good lighting, bathrooms are very clean

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for the feedback on our lighting. We have replaced burned out light bulbs where needed.

The sites are to shady and are mostly dirt and leaves. The owners were very nice!

Very rural KOA. Poor bathrooms. No cell service and wifi is non existent. We are KOA VIPS, this was our 8th KOA this summer & around 30th in the last 2 years. I would rate this one our least favorite. Shuffle board, table tennis, and pool and very old. No dog park. Tired to use my points and was told they don't know how to apply them. Does not meet KOA standards.
Jul 08, 2018
Nothing at all to do at this campground other than the pool. Heavy tree cover so last fall’s leaves that cover the campsites never dry out. The playground equipment is dangerous at best. On the other hand the owners/staff were very friendly and know a bit about the area . Also,The Kinzua area is absolutely beautiful with lots of sights to see and some great MTB riding close by.
Jul 08, 2018
No sewer connection no cable dirty bathrooms showers are a joke l would not recommend this camp ground

Very friendly staff, taking the time to help
Jul 07, 2018
We stayed in a basic cabin. We were unable to open the windows because the screens were broken. By having them open we were greeted by many bugs. This made our stay very uncomfortable. To the point we were considering leaving after one night.
Jul 07, 2018
Beautiful campground with knowledgeable friendly people. Very clean. Had a wonderful time and will certainly plan to come back.
Jul 06, 2018
The family that owns the campground are very friendly and helpful. The campground is beautiful. We will definitely return.
Jul 05, 2018
The sight was a back in sight. I had to pull into a grassy area that I had to use 4WD to get out of. I then had to back down the road and squeeze into a sight barely wide enough for my rig. The sight was VERY natural as the leaves from last fall still covered the ground. The pool had very limited hours and there were not any activities planned for the weekend before the fourth. Owners were nice.

We love this place . It was our first time and we couldn’t believe how great it was. Gary the owner was so helpful and friendly. The camp site was very big and full of trees. We will be back soon.
Jul 02, 2018
It was good. Nice little cabin. It was really hot and wish it had a fan or something but it was a hot time of year. All in all. Great stay. Will do it again.
Jul 01, 2018
Location was very good, lots to see in area and camp sites large and quite. However, No Sat. or even TV reception. Picnic tables dirty & green, had not been cleaned since??? Bathroom near our site had not been cleaned in days. Ground was totally covered with leaves since last fall, dangerous to have camp fire. Charged adult for a 16 year old w/o notice. Will not return.
Jul 01, 2018
Staying at KOA East was good. Most sites are very shady in the full hookup area.Mostly quite also
Jul 01, 2018
The people were very nice and the pool was extremely clean. Wi-fi was excellent.
Jun 28, 2018
The owners went above and beyond with helping my husband park rv. The bathrooms were immaculate. I would return there in a minute. Pool area was well laid out. Love that they have managed this koa for 33 years. Thanks for making our first rv camping trip a great success.

Campground was extremely quite. A great place for a solitary stay. The pool was very clean BUT not heated. The kids playground was minamal is size and extremely dated. The campground claims to have wi-fi.We were located one site away from the office. The signal was intermittent or totally nonexistent. As noted there were no activities for the young ones. We were somewhat disappointed.

Rented a cabin but it was called a “camp”. The place smelled horrid. Like it had been shut up all winter and reeked of mildew. I left the windows open and scrubbed down every surface and it was still unbearable. The water was brown and tasted like metal. Also they didn’t open the pool when it was supposed to open. They said that the hard winter had set them back so the pool was closed. Terri

The campground was beautiful, the owner was extremely friendly and helpful. The sight was nice and level. However there was a huge tree that prevented the full opening of our awning and a private cabin 40 yards from our fire ring.
Jun 13, 2018
Clean, quiet campground with large lots with many trees to provide shade. The campground hosts are very helpful answering any and all questions we had plus assisted us with any concerns
Jun 13, 2018
It was a very nice and clean. It's a great campground for people who enjoy quietness. There was no planned activities for kids and the pool was closed. We did make the best of it and the kids still enjoyed . We would go back again

They need to hire someone to clean their cabins instead of the brothers doing it.
Jun 06, 2018
Reserved a cabin that slept 6, one queen bed and 2 sets of bunks. Got a cabin with one bed and a fouton. Spoke to owner and he insisted I got what I reserved, though my confirmed reservation said otherwise. 2nd day there hot water tank flooded cabin and we were moved to 6 bed cabin. WHAT A DUMP! Smelly, dirty, run down. There was a playground and pool but no activities for kids or families.

This will be my second year fall camping at this KOA. Great place to get away for a weekend especially when I leaves are changing! Staff was extremely friendly and very pleasant this year and last (I only stayed one weekend and it felt like they knew me this year). Some of the sites can be challenging to a new driver, but staff is always more than happy to help get you setup. I would highly recommend as it's family friendly and all around a good time.

Update: I originally gave this place a 4 out 5 4 years ago because of it not being updated... this was the beginning of our travel trailer experiences. After visiting over 20 campgrounds since my original review I am upgrading it 5 stars. The people that own this place are an example of the original campground experience. Quiet. Wooded. Peaceful. Hard working. The real "salt of the earth" people. These place is a piece of heaven. Do not give notice to the bad reviews. Those reviews are from people looking for the galmping experience. This is not that. This is camping. Go enjoy it. Thank you for having us. We will return. God bless. Original review: The only reason I'm giving it 4 and not 5 is because it has not been updated in a long time. Other than that, everything is in good order. Clean campground. Exactly what a camping trip should feel like. Middle of the woods. Gorgeous. So isolated that you feel a little nervous in the pitch dark woods. Great experience
