Nice park and people
Jul 15, 2023
Came here for the pool and other activities. Pool was closed regularly for maintenance and when open, it was so dirty I didn’t want to go in it anyway. The other kid activities were buried in weeds; heck, the entire campground is covered in knee high weeds! It was clear that weekend campers are viewed as a nuisance and very little attention is paid to make their stays welcome and enjoyable.

Our pool opens at 10AM, closes at dusk, and was closed one day during your stay, We appreciate your feedback, however want to clarify.

The staff (especially Lisa and Dan) was very helpful and friendly we really enjoyed our stay. We really enjoyed the lakefront space that we had. The lazy River was a blast. There were some interesting local meat markets nearby the campground that had such a unique selection of bratwurst. Yum!

Not relaxing. Loud beach party on Friday night followed by an obnoxious golf cart parade Friday and Saturday night at 10pm. Small tight roads made it very uncomfortable waking to the pool with little kids as under aged golf cart drivers cruise through the park. We will not be returning to this KOA.

We appreciate your feedback, you came during our pirates and princess weekend. Princess parade and pirate beach party did take place and were enjoyed by many, If you have questions in the future about activities we recommend you call the office. Travel safe!

Professional clean friendly

I loved the gazebo at our site! Everything was so clean and neat. The one complaint I have is the fireplace. It was awkwardly deep so someone with knee/back problems might struggle with it. The metal borders around the edge of the bricks were also not secure. It wasn’t a huge problem for us, just something to be aware of for people with physical challenges.

Most sites are seasonal so the back in sites available were very small. The bathrooms and shower houses were outdated and needed some improvements. We did get a free fireworks show from across the lake! The lake was beautiful!

It was wonderful and people are so kind . Disappointing about the pool closure on Sunday. Otherwise Arlleen was so kind and helpful! We’ll be back!

This is the 2nd time we stayed at this campground and we will most likely not be back. We had a very rude lady when we called to make sure we had a golf cart. The folks checking us in were great! We were booked in a campsite with 3 friends around us. 1 of us was able to use our fire pit, the other 3 had fire pits underneath our camper awnings or too close to the camper and no room to move.

The campground has gone down hill. The grass has not been been mowed in forever. How do you get foot tall weeds? Was pretty the first time we stayed. You can tell maintenance is very laxed. The pool had soo much trash floating due to be broken. The seasonal people were rude.

Very peaceful and the workers were helpful and nice. We have camped there three times now.

We were there for the Angola Balloons Aloft. We love the campground, especially the pool and lazy river. The people in the office are always so nice and welcoming.
Jul 10, 2023
the pool kept breaking down and was closed several times during our stay (very disappointing). The weeds were HORRIBLE. In fact, we pulled quite a few at the pool and lazy river while we were floating around and it took them over a day to pick the dead weeds up. Bathrooms were very dirty.

No cell service and terrible wi-fi. Staff wasn’t very friendly. Disgusting bathrooms. Poor communication about events and not many events. Overall felt very expensive and not good value for the money spent.
Jul 10, 2023
Bathrooms were not cleaned Sunday morning. We had a great time and will likely be back.
Jul 10, 2023
Overall our stay was great and we loved all the things to do. The staff when checking in and out could have been a bit more friendly. The young ones seemed unsure of most things (mostly understandable). The older lady was however snarky and rude to most she was working with. If the customer service had been more welcoming I would have rated it 5 stars for sure.

600 total sites but 500 are long term stay or residents. Fix the online map to reflect this. CG is owned by corporate so staff are employees - that means they care less about conditions at the CG. Only one bathroom/shower for the campers? the other bathroom is deep in the "resident" area - it is bigger and cleaner. Our site was in a gravel pit infested with ants, no trees, constant road noise.

Great campground, a little pricy...which is probably due to being on a lake. We liked the place and will probably return the next time we are in the area. My only concern was that some trees need trimming in the full hook-up pull-through patio sites near the office; I had tree branches dragging on both sides of my American Coach when exiting our site which is a problem for me returning. mw

Friendly welcoming place, nice level site.
Jul 10, 2023
we had a great time and enjoyed all the things that there are to do. the bathrooms / showers could have been cleaner.

We stayed on your fishing canal. We enjoyed our site. My improvement suggestions. The inflatables, make sure that kids can climb on them. It tires you out when they are not blown up. And people need to not be standing in the lazy river. Frustrating when you can't enjoy such a great amenity!

It was a To day stay it was nice

The cancel is so full of algae it makes me feel like it could cause illness just breathing the air near it. KOA is overpriced now and we may be looking at other campgrounds in the future for our annual trip to Angola, Indiana. After 10+ years coming at least once a year, next year probably will be the last. Holiday week is about $140.00 a day and that is excessive.

Only there a night but nice. Too close to main road
Jul 06, 2023
Bathrooms were disgusting, but other than that everything was a lot of fun.
Jul 06, 2023
Way too busy, personnel made little attempt to be friendly.
Jul 06, 2023
The grounds were clean, the store was stocked, and the amenities were great. We loved the floatables in the lake and the jumping pillow best. I suggest to bring your own firewood if you live in state, as $9 a bundle is the highest price we have ever seen at a a campground.

Great time at the lazy river and the lake
Jul 05, 2023
Great campground with lots to do! Reasonably priced, too! Most staff were GREAT! A few of them were a bit rude and disrespectful to members of our group when they weren't doing anything wrong.
Jul 05, 2023
My family had a great time even though it was a little chaotic with it being a holiday weekend and rain multiple days. Only thing that we had issues with was our site had an ant infestation as well as a bees nest under our patio table. Also grass was pretty long overgrowing onto the sidewalk, could have cut closer to arrival.

The absolute best fireworks as always
Jul 05, 2023
The floating items in the lake were broken. The prices were very high and seem to be getting higher and the staff was extremely unfriendly !
Jul 05, 2023
Amenities were excellent. Customer service was poor, always a line at check in and store counter, two older women working the desk were very unfriendly both towards other staff and to guests.

Like always a great place to camp. Nice level, clean sites. Here is where they shine.... during our stay a bad storm developed. Staff were GREAT sending text info about the storm. Storm got worse & they indicated to go to bath house for shelter. Staff member (Sandra) was there directing everyone what to do. They had radios & kept in touch with main office staff. Sandra was fantastic - great job!

love the lazy river. a second regular pool would be nice for the size of the campground as it gets really crowded at times. my husband and grandkids love fishing from the back of our camper. just wish the golf cart rental fee wasn't so high. I've never paid more than $70 for an overnight rental before--over $160 is extremely high.

We loved it!

Roads are narrow, trees over roads need trimming (too low for tall rigs) gate card wouldn’t work.

Our family has been coming to Hogback Lake for 40 years. It's huge now, probably the biggest KOA we have stayed at, but lots to do. Happy kids, great lake, decent facilities.

We had a nice site on a fishing stream. We had problems with the grill catching on fire when my son and I tried to use it. I called the office, they sent staff to our site, who took the grill. They brought a replacement, that was a piece of junk. Broken and would not heat past 200, you can't cook on such a low temp! It ruined our camping weekend and cooking.

We have been coming to this KOA since 2020 and I have to say the grounds keeping and pool definitely need some attention. The pool specifically- you could not see the bottom very cloudy, layer of dirt all along the edge. There was definitely a pH/ Chlorine issue- there was no smell of chlorine whatsoever. The weeds around the grounds and pool in some places were waist high. Just disappointing.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Our pool is tested on site three times daily and independently weekly which is reported to the state for compliance in excess of standards. During times of high bather load especially when people come straight from the lake water can experience temporary clouding. Thank you for your feedback.

had a nice stay, due to the incoming storm we had leave early. do appreciate the refund on the last night.

Pretty campground with plenty of things for the children. They have remove one playground. Stayed 11 days and had no internet the entire time. Had to go to town for internet. Lost water for one day.

Bathrooms were not great, but got there in the evening so after a long day, we were happy to have a place to rest. Tent camping meant cars driving into and out of facility shined light into tent often but the lazy river and pool were lots of fun (small but my teen and I had fun). BYO pool rings!!! Vegan restaurant in town was excellent

Very friendly people and a store with all kinds of unique items! The park is clean with many things to do for all ages. This is a large park! The lake is awesome!! The cabin was great! The bed mattress was perfect for a great night sleep. We loved our visit and plan to return in a few months to enjoy summer time activities!

Campground is very Clean, Nice & quiet! Love the little pond behind our RV you see the coy & other fish swimming. Only downside is the hard water just change your filters more often.
