The stay is still great but was told we don’t get a picnic table because long-term don’t get picnic tables but never mind the rest of my neighbors have picnic tables so I don’t understand why I don’t get one.

This was our favorite KOA! Super clean, everyone was so kind, a bunch of different options of stay (tent, RV hookup, cabin, set up tents!). We will stay here again soon.

We came in late to the campground and left early but it looked like like a very nice KOA and would definitely stay again. Nice atmosphere, quiet. The mattress could be replaced but other than that our cabin was great.

4 day 3 nights at the deluxe cabin with my grandchildren, was a very enjoyable and memorable time. There are so much for the children to do and the staff was very friendly and helpful.This Camp is very clean and well maintained. We will for sure be back again. West Des Moines, Adel Iowa KOA, is on the top of my list for best KOA Camp. Keep up the good work!!! See you all soon…

The sites were clean, level, comfortably wide, and well maintained. The play areas were all very fun for our kids. They loved the bounce pad, basketball trampoline, pool, gaga pit, and playground equipment.

This KOA was like most, clean with nice bathrooms. We stay in the camping cabins, the elec only ones and most have parking right out front of each cabin, but Des Moines KOA layout is odd with parking in the rear of the cabin, so not right out your front door. Minor inconvenience and not much ownership can do. Curtains are too sheer and are completely see-thru at night with light on inside.

We booked the glamping tent with the understanding it would sleep 4. It was said to have a kind sized bed and two singles. It did not mention the two singles being cots. It also didn’t mention that when those cots were up, there was no way to move in the tent itself. This was not the ideal set up it advertised itself to be. In addition to the very cramped space, the musky smell was awful.

Basic KOA. Nothing exciting, except the hail storm. Laundry room was clean and well kept. Great Camp K9

It was a great place to stay. The only complaint I have is the campsite we had was not level, but I’d stay there again.

Overnight stay while traveling during Memorial Day. Got a nice site overlooking the fishing pond without a reservation.

Only stayed one night. Nice family showers first KOA I’ve been to that offered pizza delivery, which was really good. I’d stay there again.

This was our first ever camper trip. It was fantastic to stay with full hookups, and I was so impressed at the activities and options avaliable that I had no idea. A large bounce pillow the kids loved, a pool, a mini golf, and a activity building we didn't even get to utilize. We were right across from the playground and the kids loved it; they have already asked to come back!

Beautiful campground! Sites are roomy, staff very Fri & helpful. Having a dog playground towards the back of the campground would be nice. Thank you for a nice stay!

Has more amenities and kids activities than most any other KOA we’ve stayed at. Friendly staff. We camped on Memorial Day weekend, so a little grace is extended. Pedestal showed low voltage upon arrival and a maintenance man was quickly dispatched. I later had a No Ground error reading on my surge protector before it was damaged and stopped working. Restroom was atrocious at 6:30am on Sunday.

Great sites. Great people. A lot of activities to do. Wish we were there longer but will next time.

Once again only one night this time but enjoyed it. People inside very friendly. Over $3 for a small bag of chips is a bit pricey. Once again Steve was welcoming and engaging.

The tent site was not identified. So, it was a little hard to find. I would have liked a picnic table, which is why I gave it a 8/10. Clean toilets. In term of campground, it has a nice visitor center with a restaurant. We were unfortunate to have a massive thunderstorm the night we sleep there. They came to check on us right after at 2 am. So amazing service.

This was our second time staying at KOA Des Moines West and again it was perfect. Great staff, great spot and well worth the money. We totally loved it!

Quiet and well maintained and staffed. Our fourth campground on our trip and the best yet. Showers are a bit cramped but are well maintained and designed.

Great park. Quiet and well maintained facilities, the staff is kind and helpful. Spots are nice, some are small but anything with the fancy patio will give you plenty of room.
