I’m a very loyal KOA member and have spent all of my life camping. Without question, this was thé worst campground I’ve ever visited. Absentee owner, questionable management. Campground has a very trashy appearance. No one was present in the middle of the day for checking in — I was stuck. It was what it was, but I strongly suggest you check out the campground across the street.

Place is somewhat run down. Seemed to be run by hippies. Otherwise, every thing was ok.

Manager was super friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed him. Bathroom/shower areas in need of renovation.

I would say this park is run very haphazardly. Most of the KOAs I've been at, have been much better cared for. The grounds are not kept very tidy and the bathrooms were Not Nice and smelled like mildew.

A long way out off the beaten path but the staff were welcoming and friendly.

Nice place, great service

We had a nice stay and the staff was helpful and friendly. They are working on this older park, can't wait to see the improvements. We enjoyed the neighbors Pledge of Allegiance and National Anthem every day. Nice to see families out doing things with their kids.

Great stay! Friendly staff!

The campground is located in an area of horse properties with mobile homes. The sites in the campground are rather tight/close together. There are some trees but mostly gravel and weed/scrub. And the picnic table was covered in bird droppings. It was an ok place to stay for a short period and convenient to Craters of the Moon park.

People were very nice and helpful. It’s late in the season so everything including check in you had to call a number for assistance. The camp seems a little rundown but it was clean. I wish the camp Nextdoor was not so loud in their morning and evening patriotic practices.

Good overnite spot

The trailer of trash really looks bad. Neighborhood dog barked too much.

While the bathroom and laundry are clean the overall appearance of this KOA was not so appealing. Lots of dirt and no gravel or grass. My initial response to the campground was not very pleasant. However, very close to some unique history, good cafe, and Craters of the Moon Park.

Convenient off the highway. Sites flat with pebbles. However not a tree, not a table, sites quite close to one another. Ours was at the end of a line and vans turning did not have a barrier to protect us if we were outside. Would stay again as convenient.

Not up to your standards. To much junk all around.
Oct 04, 2024
Office was closed when we showed up. We didn’t have a reservation. The host was outside and helped us. Site was ok. Picnic tables were old and run down. Washrooms and showers were old and in need of updating. Host was going around with six pack in his hand. He was friendly enough. Just seemed like they took and old campground and stuck a KOA brand in it.

We stayed 2 nights. Our site was spacious and bathrooms were clean. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Oct 02, 2024
Staff wasn't very available. Pool looked disgusting should have been cleaned or covered for the season. Bathrooms were kept clean, though toilet paper was missing at times. Campsites were ok but picnic tables were very random. It also seemed like a person was living in a shack on the property with belongings scattered around a picnic table. It definitely wasn't a camping cabin.

Needs upkeep and maintenance. Laundry dirty as were the showers. We were here in 2017 and it was much better then.

Needs updating.

Crazy neighbour in the adjoining field. KOA was "run down" and I will not stay at another KOA.

A beautiful Oasis in the Idaho desert. Nice campground with friendly helpful staff. Arco is a nice little town.
Sep 25, 2024
Adequate for overnight if you are self-contained. The office was not open unless you called the phone number to ask for something. The pool looked disgusting and I don’t think it was operational during summer. The grounds were not well kept.
Sep 25, 2024
Second time staying there and both times it was very enjoyable, only thing that we could see that really needed done is some tree trimming some of the old trees are a little scary when they wind blows! Thanks again.

The campground is in a good location. It is worn and dated. If you're looking for staff in KOA yellow shirts, you won't find it here. No one was in the office when we arrived at 2:00 PM; we had to call a number posted on the door. When doing our laundry, three of the four dryers held the staff's dried clothing. In all, it was OK, but I've been at better campgrounds.

Office never open, grounds not kept up, low water pressure, and the host was mowing the grass and throwing rocks within a foot of me while I was unhooking water hose getting ready to leave. Loved the Trump neighbors playing music morning and night.

great small campground close to bathrooms, great views, seeing the horses in the morning was great and the dog run was an awesome perk! my dogs loved getting off leash for a little bit.

Pretty run down. Terrible roads, uneven, muddy sites. Lost mail. we've stayed at a LOT of KOAs, this is the worst of all of them. We won't be back.

The couple who operate this OOA were so helpful, even after hours.
Sep 19, 2024
Half the trees are dead or dying, so not an attractive campground. Bathrooms/ showers were just okay. Much nicer campground on the opposite end of town on the way to Craters of the Moon, that are half the price per night, but just electric sites only with a dump station. Since we only were there two evenings I wish ee had stayed there.

The campground was not very inspiring, it was a little shabby and could do with some upgrades on the site and bathrooms, although they were clean. It is not close to the national park. The playground area is good for children. Hosts were very pleasant but did not have our booking ready on our arrival.
Sep 17, 2024
Decent park, seams to be under new ownership that are trying to make upgrades.
Sep 17, 2024
Adequate for an overnight; we wish the park would lay down more gravel and level the sites. When you’re staying in a journey, you really want a quick In-and-Out, not to have to break out leveling blocks.
Sep 16, 2024
Needs a lot of attention and work, bathrooms hadn't been cleaned for days, out of toilet paper etc. pool a health hazard I'm sure, so murky couldn't see bottom, tenters rolled in late after we went to bed, set up 5 feet from us and made noise past 1 am when finally fell asleep with ear plugs, sorry to say, don't mean to be rude but when get a survey and are asked I gotta be honest, worst KOA ever
Sep 15, 2024
Grounds were uncared for and bathrooms were dirty.
Sep 13, 2024
We arrived with some problems. They accommodated us & were friendly in the process.

Owner was friendly and we had the pull through sites we wanted. We stayed two nights. The sites were mostly level gravel. There were trees for shade. The covered patio had comfortable chairs and people seemed to enjoy gathering there and chatting with other park guests. Every evening and morning a quirky neighbor plays a recording of the National Anthem at sunset, and revele at 9 am.

A very relaxed and peaceful campground. Not much shade. We stayed 2 nights to visit Craters of the Moon NP. Near the ‘centre’ of Arco with enough opportunities to hace breakfast or dinner.
Sep 10, 2024
Great place. Nice folks that host are very helpful. wide open and spacious
Sep 09, 2024
The hosts were wonderful. I was sad waffles for breakfast ended on Labor Day, but oh well. All the facilities were clean, including the pool. I wish there was more to do because after you visit Craters of the Moon there is nothing to do. The town of Arco is pretty dismal.

We enjoyed our stay at this KOA. Staff members are very friendly and helpful. The pool area, showers and restrooms are very clean. Our site was spacious and quite. The campground is close to the Crater of the Moon park.

Only 20 minutes from the Craters of the Moon national park we found a peaceful, clean and well managed RV park. RV sites were spacious with full hookups, strong cell phone reception (T-Mobile and AT&T) for those not using Starlink, comfy laundry room, and even an on-site golf simulator facility. Conan was kind and helpful
