Campground Reviews

Excellent Visit -- as always. Buckeye Lake KOA is our preferred stay when we're passing through (heading West or North), but this time we added an extra night to enjoy ourselves here (we're learning). Great facilities and a friendly, helpful Staff makes for a great Destination!

We had a great time as always, my only complaint is the emails we received before arriving indicated that the pool was closed for repair so we didn’t bring our swim gear with us.

The quality of this campground is poor in comparison to other KOAS. I stayed there for 2 nights. The bathrooms attached to the office were not cleaned the whole time I was there. The campground as a whole appeared tired and worn out. The sites were too close together too. The camping cabin I stayed in was clean and in working order as was the pool which has been reopened. I will not be returning.

This was probably the worst experience we have had at at KOA. Mostly dirt site, smelled like sewage, putt putt hadn't been maintained in atleast a year with carpet gone and mosquito/moss infested water, jump pad was full of sand to the point that if your kid jumped it just shot up in the eyes, pool was on and the only thing clean but very basic. This would be better off a journey for expectations

This review has been removed by KOA due to profanity.

I was awakened by a plumber outside my window at 6:30 am running a gas powered auger down the sewer line. When I was packing up to leave i found my sewer overflowing and running right where I needed to stand to disconnect and pack up. I had to stand in raw sewage. I was told a I would be contacted about my complaint but have yet to hear from anyone. Not a good experience!

Spots are tight. You're right up on each other. The sewer lines backed up. The bugs were crazy bad we thought. Now not all bad. The pool was nice, my kids liked the jump pad and basketball hoop. I will come back next season and give it another chance just in a different spot.

Always my favorite KOA. This was our 5th year staying there.

Sites are really close together. Staff was great.

I had been there many years ago. The staff is not like it used to be. And you can tell because the camp ground was not full. It always was
Jul 13, 2026
The showers had human long hair strands all over it, the other showers had muddy everywhere. The light didn't stand on and it went out after I was all soaked up and couldn't see to do my ronce off. Horrible driveways filled with mud puddles. Will not recommend to anyone I know.

Nice campground, very hot in July (not their fault) The nats were bad. Was only a stop over for our trip down the road. Very level and clean camp sight.

Everything and everyone was really great. It was convenient to the lake and eateries. The amenities was awesome, swimming, volleyball all fun. Dog park was great. The only complaint is the shower water pressure was awful. I think the shower head just needed replaced.

Put me into site next to site where drain had overflowed. Still “stuff” laying on ground. Electrical post went dead during night. Site muddy no maintenance. Only stay here as overnight when going/coming East. Will try to fing alternate now.

The front desk staff was RUDE. The mattresses in the cabins were extremely uncomfortable. The cabins had nothing in them. (Every other KOA cabins have a fridge, a microwave, a toaster, or something for comfort… this had nothing but a two foot table). Very run down. The showers were dirty (stayed Monday and Thursday night and the same clump of hair was on the wall). One star because of the pool.

We stayed over 4 th of July. Staff was very friendly. Dog friendly campground. There was a sewage issue, but they communicated very well throughout the issue. Would stay again

This campground was disgusting. We paid for a “bigger and longer “ spot but it was cramped. The people next to us utilized the sewer. It was right next to our picnic table and they in fact left the cap on our picnic bench leaving it unusable. Loud vehicles going way too fast. We couldn’t wait to leave.

Great people! Easy directions and they actually answered their phone! I never thought I could get a reservation after 6 but they answered right before 8pm. I was so relieved to be able to camp that night and plug in.

The campground is well shaded and attractive. Unfortunately, the site I was on was in serious need of new gravel. We had I short period of moderate rain and it left both my truck and trailer with a lot of mud splatter. Previously I had been camping on gravel sites with a lot of rain and both the truck and trailer remained clean, so this site needs better upkeep.

First and foremost I heard that ownership has changed hands 3 times this year. We had a full hook up and couldn’t use it, had to use the dump station. Holiday weekend and your store wasn’t open half the time…. Not sure I’ll be back

Over all location is wonderful if you are in town for the lake . However the campground is falsely advertised and highly overpriced. We stayed Thursday to Monday and the campground had a plumbing issue causing all the campers along with tent sites to use one very small bathroom. ( this was 4th of July weekend) I paid 265 dollars for a GRASS pad and got a mud pad . The creek was more of a swamp.

I realize it was a "buddy" site, but still very narrow and the trees at the end made exiting impossible were it not for the vacant pull through across the way. Our site had a bunch of litter from prior campers and the sewer was so far at the end of the site we couldn't use it. To pull up to use it we wouldn't have been able to extend our slide. Lots of work to do at this campground.

The park manager, Michelle, her husband and staff work SO HARD to make this older park better. The pool was clean and refreshing. The mini golf was great for the family. The HUGE inflatable jumping mat was a blast for the kids. Basketball and inside arcade games. This is heaven for kids and parents alike. Its a park that's getting better and better. I highly recommend Buckete Lake KOA!!!

The manager was very friendly along with the entire staff. Was an enjoyable weekend

There were no events during our stay. Our camping site was not level. There wasn’t much to do there other than swim and bike.

Enjoyed this day. Great campground. Enjoyed the facilities.

Had trouble with sewage all weekend long. Bathrooms were often closed and dirty when open.

Excellent stop. Friendly service. Store is nice. Bathrooms clean. Loved it!

Our sewer hookup was backing up along with everyone on our road. Wouldn't offer a refund even though we were full hookup. The putt putt course did not have any grass on it.

I was not impressed by the site 163 that I received as it had a wrought iron table and chairs and a metal fire ring that was too close to the adjoining site, versus the other deluxe pull through sites which had brick type pavers for a fire ring and patio and much more comfortable patio furniture , and slightly wider sites.

The KOA did not meet the standards of a KOA. The sites are incredibly close and the sewer pipe from the neighboring camper was located in the area of our camper: A big turn off. The sewer gushing into the family site was so disgusting. Due to the sewer issues, bathhouses were closed and dumping at our site was not permitted. And for this we paid full price!
Jul 06, 2026
I was not as impressed with this KOA as others that we have been to. The playground is not very well maintained. Also they did not have any activities going on even though their Facebook page stated they had several things planned. The pool was also broken the first couple days that we were there.
Jul 06, 2026
Wrong site to start was told multiple times what site we had but never once was told there was a “lock in fee” til we arrived an was to late site that we got was the absolute worst spot at the camp ground after some rain complete site was under water not a good stay at all
Jul 06, 2026
Staff was good but campground seems to need some utility work/upgrades. Problems with sewer this time paid for a full hook up and still had to stop at dump station on the way out. Suggestion is to widin out the road at dump station so you can pass .
Jul 06, 2026
Buddy sites weren’t listed properly on website, activities that were advertised not only didn’t happen but none did, pool falling apart and my kid got cut twice on tiles that had fallen off & was on bottom of pool, full hookup wasn’t full hookup because they had issues both days, 30 mosquito bites in one night, chemicals in pool were also not proper (it was cloudy and burned). Left early.
Jul 06, 2026
Sewer smell was too much. We ended up leaving early
Jul 06, 2026
Bringing wood to us and taking the garbage when we left was awesome great stay nice people

The campground was ok but seemed a little rundown and not as well taken care of as it used to be. 4:00 p.m. check in is too late and 11:00 a.m. check out is too early when paying $80 a night.
Jul 06, 2026
Overall stay was nice. Friendly and helpful staff. Sites were a little closer together than we are used to but enough room for our camper. Plumbing issues occurred campground wide and they worked to get those corrected quickly on a very busy holiday weekend.
Jul 06, 2026
The staff were absolutely amazing and pleasant. The campground is extremely clean and quiet. Thank you all so much.

This is a wonderful place to take the family camping. So much for the kids to do, swimming in the pool, giant inflatable jumping mat, mini golf, game room and more. Great employees working SO hard to make this older park enjoyable for all. We really enjoyed our stay.
