    Most things in this campground need some updating. Water hookups were old. Laundry machines were in need of care....

    Awesome bathrooms. Other KOAs could use as a model, for remodeling. Poor TV and WiFi. Roads / spots a muddy mess. Water pressure in am poor. OK overnite stopover

    We enjoyed our stay. The bathrooms were very nice and clean. The grounds were a little muddy but it did rain which you can't control!

    The owner tom, after talking with him allowed me to park my motorhome in a separate area for several hours so we could go in to town and spend time with a very dear friend who has cancer and has less than a month. The camp was extremely busy but he found a space for me. Thank him for the nice gesture. Ben and Cathy gero. He went the. Extra mile,

    Had a great visit, nice quiet area closed to food and shops. Only suggestion would be wooden doors on the shower changing area for more privacy.

    This was your average KOA - we can count on them to meet our needs. Very nice and helpful staff, good utilities and TV was great.

    The people here were the best! Very friendly and welcoming. Though the campground was not far off the interstate, we had no issues with road noise

    One night stay. Easy in and. Out.

    This is our first stay at Albert Lea/Austin. The campground is beautiful, wooded, with nice level sites. There was only office staff, one person, that we saw, with the campground full. As with many KOA campground, the WIFI didn't work well for the pull through sites. This is a problem for those of us who require Internet access. Campground was quiet, bathrooms OK.
    Sep 25, 2017
    Nice if more full hookup sites would have been available otherwise nice quiet campground.

    From the entry parking lot, the office entry seems backwards.....a bit confusing. some highway noise........beautiful shade, no cable, but good wifi

    We were there only one night but everything was clean and we were very satisfied.

    Great campground, wonderful people. Would have given a 5 but the bathrooms need some updating and repair. Bathrooms clean. Loved the soybean fields.

    Easy in and out to site which was long enough for our 40' motorhome and towed jeep. Park was surrounded by farm fields which is very picturesque. Nice large dog park along with plenty of area to walk your dog. There is some road noise, but it becomes white noise after a while. Did not use the bathrooms. We would definitely stay here again.

    Great central location and the freeway noise dropped off in the evening
    Sep 21, 2017
    Shower and laundry clean. Nice fenced dog park. Need more gravel on sites and roads. A lot of puddles after raining. Constant road noise. Can see highway from campground. We were there 2 nights and only noticed train whistle one time.

    We believe this KOA could use some work. It needs updating and just needs to be cleaned up a bit. Water stinks terrible. More activity for the kids too.
    Sep 19, 2017
    Always a great place to stay. Staff is friendly, place is well maintained, LOVE the pet area so they can run free for a time. Out in the middle of the fields, LOVE IT.

    Everything was excellent, and I know this can't be helped, but the campground is really close to the I -90 . A lot of truck noise. And I repeat ,other than that everything was excellent.
    Sep 18, 2017
    Even though it is right off Interstate 90, it is surprisingly quiet. We enjoyed the view of the farm fields and the warm hospitality of the staff. We will return!

    Everything was great, nice people. But....GPS dumped us out about 20 minutes away from the KOA campground. She said, "you have reached your destination." But there was nothing there. We had to backtrack 20 miles to the actual KOA. The employees said that our experience happens often and they've complained about it to powers that be and nothing is done about it. So...beware of the GPS directions!
