Campground Reviews

This is the most beautiful and well maintained park we have ever seen. The stalls are beautiful, the store well stocked, the pizza and wings are delicious, the laundry is immaculate. We are retired, but I would highly recommend that families pack up their children and come to this park. The kids have so much to do and will love it. Easy access to the highway and to the entire Des Moines area.

We rented a 4-person cabin (KL12) and had a great time, however the queen bed is extremely uncomfortable/very saggy in the middle so I did not sleep well at all(I only weigh 132 and still sunk in). When you're paying to stay somewhere the bed should be high quality or change out the mattress sooner. We also found mouse poop in our cookware and the bathroom sink was constantly clogged.

We discovered this great campground while passing through last September. We appreciate the long pull throughs, friendly atmosphere, garbage pickup at the site, escort after check-in, cleanliness and safety. We stayed just one night but their Halloween celebration was going full blast! Everyone looked like they were having a great time. We already plan a stop when traveling next year.

Called ahead for booking. Was told the CC to be used for deposit. When arrived at 8pm, the total already been charged to the card. Unable to pay in another form of payment. Given a "map" of the facility. In the dark, found the cabin, but unable to find the showers, it not on the map. Room needed a good floor mopping. Too many flies. Toilet runs too long...

We have made a tradition to end our camping season each fall at the Des Moines West KOA. The facilities are great and the family activates are always a lot of fun.

We have been staying here every fall for a few years now. There have been advancements every year we stay and the atmosphere is ALWAYS family friendly. The staff is super helpful and always friendly providing for all your needs. We will definitely keep.coming back

West Des Moines Koa is very nice. Customer service needs a lot of work. If you have any kind of issues, no one takes the time to get back to you, whether by phone or email.

Our state was great. I was disappointed that there wasn’t the hay wreck ride to get pumpkins. There was no train. There also were not dedicated activity times. It was open activities which was fine but it was much nicer when they were dedicated time. I also was sad that there was less seating in the rec center due to putting in a sales station. We will be back next year but hope changes happen

We have always enjoyed our stay at this KOA. However, this time we camped in site 77 and space was very limited. The campsite was very small with hardly any room for us to sit outside.

well maintained and very friendly

Beautiful facility and very helpful hosts. Convenient to I-80, but a little distance to activities in Des Moines, IA. Great for families and nice that food is available. We will stay, again.

We rented one of the cabins by the pond. It was very clean and comfortable. It was well stocked i.e. paper towels, tp, dish soap, toiletries, hair dryer, k cups for the single cup coffee maker, microwave, dishes, hot plate, even an iron and ironing board. The wings and breakfast pizza delivered from the store were awesome. We will definitely return next year.

We loved our stay. The bathrooms were especially nice, the text to site service was fantastic, and the owners really could not have been nicer people. We were only there for one night, but it was a very comfortable one!

Definitely worth the price! Lots of fun activities and the restrooms and showers are top notch. Very little tree coverage so no ticks but bring your own shade! The staff is amazing and food/supply delivery to your site is free! Lifetime lasting memories were made!
