RV Reviews

Apr 11, 2024
Our recent 5 state roadtrip put us in 11 different KOA campgrounds. Of those 11, Ellensburg KOA was the most expensive, by almost double. I did pay what was asked willingly, but we won't be back. The KOA app said "1 site left". Upon arrival, we were 1 of 7 RVs in the campground for the night. I assume overcharging for the space was why.

Web site was hard use. Weren’t able to pick are own site. We requested to change sites so we weren’t looking at the maintenance building, they allowed us to moved closer to River.

It was good but we got woke up early at 5:00 in the morning because of people leaving with noisy trucks. I think the trucks should stay towards the gate if they're going to leave early and it was a bit pricey from what we've been paying that other koas

Thank you for being our guest. Please come back when the Yakima River is surrounded by beautiful blooms. We start our Sunday Pancake Breakfasts up beginning of May, pool opens in Mid May and our Club House is currently already open for more fun & games. Bethel G, Manager

Very nice staff, worked with us as our truck broke down. Showers clean and plenty of hot water. Camp site ok, but lots of twigs, leaves and bird droppings on picnic table and deck.

Hookups worked. Large site, but not level. Had to use blocking. Most expensive campsite in 5 states we visited.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

An overnight stay on our way home. Nice setting, nice people. Some traffic noise but not bad. Spaces close together but otherwise fine.

Loved the place and the welcoming feeling with all staff starting with the check in. Loved the K9 area. Only drawback was the close proximity to the freeway and its noise but then again proximity to everything else (River, fishing lakes, city and restaurants) was perfect. Would stay here again.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for visiting us. The Yakima river is even more beautiful when everything is in bloom. We have fun events throughout the summertime and the pool will be open. We invite you back for a visit. Thank You, Bethel, Mgr

Stayed one night but will be staying there more often as we cross the state to visit family. Bethel, the manager, was so attentive to our needs and was a huge help with getting settled

Don’t show up even 15 minutes before noon or you will be charged $15. Overall it was a pleasant experience. The patio area I was placed at was very nice especially with the provided Adirondack Chairs, tables, and fire pit. Made for a very nice communal area for our group of 5 trailers. I wished our trailers could have been put closer together as requested when reserved a month earlier however.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Very nice and clean. No disturbances and everyone was very friendly. Only issue was sewer dumps were backing up.

Thank you for visiting us and bringing the sewer issue to our attention. This has been addressed & fixed. We would love to have you back during our We look forward to having you back. Bethel G, Manager

The staff were great! This is not at all about the staff or the particular KOA. This is about the KOA owners only concerned with profit and not caring about our stay. There were tons of sites open and they stuck us all together instead of letting us have some privacy. Most notably, we have a 21 ft camper between 2 large campers and.. out of word limit. This site was $65 as much as a hotel??

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your visit. 11/1-4-/15 we our in winter mode and most of our sites are closed due to being winterized. Please come back for a visit when everything is in bloom along the Yakima River. Let us know you like a more private site and we will try to accommodate. Bethel G, Mgr

The campground is a decent campground, but when you are paying over $60 for a winter overnight parking spot, you should be able to have at least a few services. The Internet was so slow it was useless, even though we were within 100 feet of the antenna.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your comment. We are currently working on the wi-fi to offer better coverage. Thank you for staying with us and please come again during the summer when everything is in bloom along the Yakima river. Thank you, BG Manager

The staff were very friendly and extra helpful. The manager came down to ensure we got into the spots we had the previous week. We stayed along the river and it was absolutely beautiful.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you. The Yakima River is so beautiful to camp by, we are glad you enjoyed it. Please visit us during the summer when everything blooming and the pool is open and we have fun events like karaoke, movie and pizza night and fun activities for the kids. Thank you for staying with us. BG

When we stayed here it was cold and there wasn’t many folks in the campground. We enjoyed our stay. 2 nice dog areas playgrounds for the kids. Nice riverside campground. The people running the place were awesome. Clean bathrooms with hot water.

We were a late arrival around 5pm on 2/5. We pulled into our assigned space #57 and got set up. At that time we noticed that the water at our full hookup site and #58 was capped off. The office was closed (even until after our check out time)so we couldn’t report it. We don’t feel we should have paid full price.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Please note for future reference, on the site map there is an after hour number, we have maintenance on site 24/7 for assistance for our guest. We just went through a freeze and did our best to stay on top of the sites. Thank you for being a loyal guest.

I needed to stay here for a few days in my RV since I needed to work some during my vacation. I came to this location because I wanted something better than my cell phone hot spot. I expected a stable and consistent WiFi. Their WiFi was intermittent and spotty. This location is close enough to the I-90 freeway that you get plenty of road and truck noise day and night.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I hope you were able to utilize our trails along the beautiful Yakima River, and the club house with all it's amenities not to mention the deer that frequent our campsite daily. We look forward to your next visit. TY Bethel/Campground Manager

The playground and game room were good entertainment for children. Wish the sites had a little more privacy.

It was short but looking around we would come back it’s just a beautiful place

The site itself was beautiful…but it was obvious that there is issues between the upper management and the site managers.

Excellent clean, maintained RV sites, easy no hassle late arrive check-in, looking forward to staying there again.

No one in the office but worked out just fine. Nice camp site. It was freezing the night I stayed so didn't see much but looked worth a trip when it was warmer. River runs right next to the camp.
Oct 27, 2023
No one on site even though it was supposed to be open. The place is a mess bathrooms were dirty and the dog walk area had poop everywhere. Definitely would not come back. The place looks like it was forgotten about.
Oct 26, 2023
Staff are great and the park is very well maintained. Great place to go.
Oct 26, 2023
Staff was polite and accommodating; providing excellent service. Facilities were clean and in good order. Campground is beautiful. Good entertainment for kids. Picnic tables and fire rings were in good shape.
Oct 26, 2023
First time disappointed in my stay at this campground. The breaker on my post was broken and was hard to use. Also took the pup to the dog park and there was so much poop that we left. Some was days old so I know they are not looking at regularly. Even though owners should clean up after their dogs, the park needs to clean up after inconsiderate users within a day or so.

A good place to stop in. The laundry did not have a coin machine and it was a bit expensive for a campsite. $71. But that's kind of what you get with a KOA, and this specific campground probably doesn't have much control over that. They had a very clear area to register for the night if you came in after hours, which we did.
