Campground Reviews

Disappointed. The bathrooms and showers did not have hot water due to a gas leak? The campground hosts were awesome.

Came to town for the Thanksgiving holiday. Traveling from Texas with our Catahoula. The cabin was wonderful I wish it had a bigger bed but other than that it was great

Convenient, it was on our way. Sadly no hot water in bathroom, even after 7 or 8 minutes. Cute place with creek though and it was clean.

Just a suggestion: if you have a coffee maker in the room, and filters, you should probably provide coffee. Hair in the toilet, dead jug in the bathroom sink. I usually love KOA cabins. This was the odd one out.

We specifically called 4 hours ahead to be sure bathhouses were open, as our rig is still winterized. We were told yes, the bathhouses were open. Went to shower in the morning, let the water run a LONG time, standing naked in the cold water for 10 minutes. NO HOT WATER. Also, we were not able to wash our hands with warm water after using the toilet. It was a very filthy start to our day.

It was not good. The person running it just wanted to leave. He just told us to go to a certain spot. When we got there the stench in the air was awful. Nobody was there to help us move to another spot. We had paid already and didn’t know if we could change our spot. We couldn’t even sit outside the the smell was so bad. Not a friendly place.

This is a great campground and the staff is super friendly and helpful!

Easy to access off highway. Mixed up my reservation dates but it was fixed by the kind staff! Thank you!

Overpriced, and the pond needed to be cleaned, slips are too close to each other.

We stayed overnight and it was very nice! The manager moved us closer to the bathrooms since we had littles and the bathrooms were clean as well! Nice quick stay!

The bathrooms could have had hot water, a cold shower in November was painful.

We arrived after dark and left at first light so didn’t see much! Turned in wrong entrance on arrival! A better sign would help those unfamiliar and arriving late. We figured it out! Sites however were well marked even in the dark. Water and electric hookups all great. We were almost on the highway but are used to that with KOA - it was pretty noisy. Great for overnight.

Traveling, this was an overnight stay only

Nice two night stay. Bathrooms clean but could have been warmer. North bathroom on west side of road exhaust fan leaked on toilet when raining. Mexican restaurant down the street had good food. Would stay again.

The office wasn't open for my stay, however, one of the owner's Dad was around to help when needed and was a fantastic person.

Office staff were efficient and friendly.

We arrived late and it was very hard to determine our camp pad. There were so many pine needles it made it hard to park . We had a problem getting our slides out because of overgrown tree limbs.

Convenient location and nice town. We like to walk everyday, and there is a beautiful park in town with excellent paved paths, which we really enjoyed. The park itself is OK, employees were great! But the pool was not clean or heated, and needs some work. Maybe it was due to the end of summer, but it was still hot, and we would have used it more if it was in better condition.

Got in after office hours in the dark. Trying to decifer campground map when KOA staff came to our rescue and led us to camp site. Very grateful for their help. Camp grounds are very nice. Would definitely stay here again.

The 1st site they took us to was so tight and unlevel. Plus it was so close to the interstate we couldn't have a conversation outside. The campground was not that crowded. So... they moved us to the other side which was great. There was only one other camper on that side. But it was $6 more. This was November so why didn't they offer a better site to begin with?!

We were greeted with kindness and smiling faces unlike the KOA we stayed at the night before. Our site was beautifully situated across from and pond and surrounded by bamboo trees.

Staff assigned us to lovely secluded spot, close to bath house, easy in & out. So nice on phone when booking us. They set the standard for hospitality!

Got in after hours. Listened to phone message and it was just like clockwork. Got a good nights sleep and was on my way. Very nice campground. Enjoyed it very much.

It was a nice, quiet place, although close to expressway. The description on the reservation should include that the tent site is in a group area, so you don't expect to be semi alone to find others camping in close vicinity. I felt slightly vulnerable due to no gate or guard area and people coming very late in the night. Bathrooms were clean and warm. Pool is put away for the year. Staff is nice.

Thomas was very friendly. Nice size spots.

Quiet park except for the noise from Interstate. Easy parking. Just an overnight stay. Easy in, easy out. Stayed there many times.

Beautiful grounds, friend staff, and so much to do nearby in the national parks!

We stayed one night on our way to another destination. It had everything we needed

Very handy just off the interstate. Arrived after office hours and they had a packet all ready with map to my site and other info.

We stayed here for one night and really loved it! We had a spot next to the pond and there was a nice amount of space between sites, we had a chair swing and could see turtles from our motorhome. It was a quiet and beautiful place to rest for the night.

Great customer service. Lovely little cabin. Nice quiet campground.
Oct 26, 2023
2nd time there and would stay again. Very nice campground.

This is a good RV park for one to two nights very close to Rend Lake Recreation. Facilities - ok.

Without a doubt - the KINDEST staff of any KOA my husband or I have been to. We stayed for the Eclipse and we're welcomed with a late check-in and amazing service from Becky the following day. Excellent amenities and our children LOVED the parks. If you're considering staying I am confident they are more accommodating than anyone in the area.

We spent a week traveling from Ohio to Kentucky and to Illinois, we stayed at KOAs exclusively and this was by far the most amazing KOA we have been at, and genuinely one of the best campgrounds we've camped at. The staff was friendly, the owner was wonderful, and the pond view was just awesome. This is a hidden gem of Benton for sure.
