The full-service KOA Cafe can deliver a Texas dinner to your campsite or cater your group event.
Wake up to a breathtaking sunrise; wind up the day with a spectacular sunset. In between you've got a world of fun at the Van Horn KOA, set in a beautiful desert valley surrounded by mountains. This country setting, landscaped with native plants that attract wildlife, is filled with the sounds of birds (rather than highway noise!). Visit Guadalupe Mountains and Carlsbad Caverns national parks, Fort Davis and the town of Marfa, whose "Ghost Lights" have defied explanation since 1883. Your KOA hosts can arrange a tour of Red Rock Ranch, including a visit to the Dead Man Walking movie set. At KOA, there's free popcorn-plus free cable TV, Wi-Fi, even free greens fees at the local golf course. The full-service KOA Cafe can deliver a Texas dinner to your campsite or cater your group event.
