Campground Reviews

Everything was great except the loud 4 wheeler running up and down road.

Picture of site 005 needs to be updated to show there’s a big tree stump in the middle of the site and not a tree. Grill did not work but a different one was brought to the site. We were able to cook dinner albeit much later than we’d planned. Park was nice and bath house was reasonably clean.

Check-in process very poorly organized. The requirement for an escort to site seems unnecessary considering sites are marked and map provided. Quiet hours starting at 11pm seems a bit late for young kids trying to sleep with a loud DJ/concert going on. Also did not appreciate phone call 24 hours prior to check-in trying to get me to “lock in” site for additional fee. Seems cheap/nickle and dim

Campground is very clean. We stayed in C03 and it seems like it was the only cabin that the ground around the fire pit was not good enough to sit around and have fire. Almost fell due to the one side being totally uneven. Took a very long time to get firewood. Had to go to office 3 times. Bathrooms very clean. A lot of stuff to do and staff was amazing. Was a little sandy around park also.

Overall a nice experience considering it was a halloweekend. A little rowdy & lots of really bright lighting unrelated to the decorations.

It’s not a bad campground, honestly just nothing special to make it stand out….. very small which may be a plus, but exiting the campground on Sunday is a disaster…… you literally could be stuck in line for an hour, even if you don’t have to dump, because of the one ways you’re stuck jumping pillow big deal, neat lil in the woods scary Forrest, but man this place nickels & dimes for

Halloween weekend was fantastic!

The noise associated with the drag-racing adjacent to our campsites, all day and in the evening was unbearable. It frightened the children, and made our stay very unbearable, and disturbing.

Thank you for your review, we apologize for some of our neighbors riding down the road. We did try to approach them out on the road, due to the public road the best we can do is notify proper authority.

Kids were messing around with other ppl campers and unplugging them and banging on doors

Thank you for choosing us for your Halloween camping. We are sorry this was your experience. We do our best to monitor the park at night with night security walking the park. Once notified of the situation, we monitored the area closer and notified our campers in hope we could catch those out late.

I call it Nickel&Dime the campers. The office called my family member & asked if he wanted to guarantee his site if so, pay $15 extra. Disgusting since he already paid a deposit for a site. Then charging for visitors is bad too. Visitor is purchasing from your camp store & snack bar too. Just all around disappointing. I will not go back & I’ll tell everyone who asks me the reason.

Thank you for your feedback. We hope you were able to enjoy our Halloween events. Online reservations are often made with requests to be near someone without choosing to lock in a site, we do make courtesy calls to try and lock campers in to be near friends to ensure system does not move them.

Kids liked the huge swimming area. Walked around the pond and saw frogs and tadpoles. Kids play area was nice.

Had a great stay lots are big, could use some more rocks or fill dirt other than that everything is great. Love the text alerts about activities throughout the day.

The Place is really nice camp grounds. We really like it there. Only problem we had, was the spot they put us in was to short for my trailer and my truck to go into. Only fit my trailer in. My truck was park away from us. I ask if I could move to the next one which was a lot longer for me and she said no. Then for the next 4 days I watched two other 15 foot tr.go next to me. I have a 40 ft.? Why.

We had a wonderful stay… just didn’t like being overcharged in excess of 30.00 and I still haven’t heard anything on a refund or removal of the additional guests from next years bookings… it’s been a couple days..
Sep 12, 2023
All staff there is super nice and friendly. I love that it is family run. We feel like family when we stay there. Already booked 4 stays for next year �

It is always a pleasure to stay at Emmett Holiday, KOA.

We had a great time, the staff is excellent. The only problem was low water pressure and no cable or internet.

Thank you for your feedback. We will be looking into the issues you encountered on site to see how we can fix this issues for the next camper. We hope to see you back next season.

The Emmett KOA has so many fun things to do for both young families and grown families. The deluxe cabins were top notch - very clean and well furnished. We especially liked the 10:30 wake up barrel train that went through the campground.
Sep 11, 2023
Can’t rave enough!!! The deluxe cabins were amazing for camping- comfortable mattresses, great linens, and extremely clean! The campground was so quiet and had so many amazing kid friendly activities. A must do adventure for the summer- take a break, unwind, and unplug!

We had a great weekend at Emmett! The campground is beautiful and peaceful. It is clean and well maintained with a ton of activities. The staff is wonderful and very helpful. We love going to Emmett. It is like a home away from home. I highly recommend Emmett!

Our family has been coming here for several years now, and already booked our return for 2024. The kids love the lake, playground, and all the activities. As parents, we love that it is much smaller than some other campgrounds. The staff is always friendly and outgoing.

Great Campground !

Great experience can’t wait to come back

I really enjoyed camping here until this past weekend. Quiet time and site occupancy rules not upheld. Owner and staff did nothing but offered us a refund if we left at 10p when our child was already in bed sleeping. Calls and texts to staff went unanswered when quiet time was not followed by a group. I had to ask them to quiet down which lead to them threatening me and I called the sheriff.

Lovely location, lake perfect, site large
Sep 08, 2023
It's such a nice place, we've been several times over the years.
Sep 07, 2023
We love the campground/amenities. The only thing we noticed was how horrible the mosquitoes were. We had to reapply bug spray from the moment you came outside and we still ended up with a ridiculous number of bites. Staff told one of our family that you already sprayed 2-3 times this season for mosquitoes, if that is the case, it may need it more. We wouldn't go back if it stays this bad
Sep 07, 2023
The cabin was clean and had everything we needed! Very updated. My only complaint was that the bed in DC2 was not comfortable and it was very loud and noisy with every move. A Kringle sound.
Sep 07, 2023
Stayed 5 nites for my first visit and it was great. Great place for kids to enjoy all camping desires.
Sep 06, 2023
We love the Emmett KOA and will be back very soon!!
Sep 06, 2023
Our stay was fabulous as always from Fourth of July weekend to this past Labor Day weekend. We have seen the improvements Way to go Jimmy and staff.
Sep 06, 2023
The mosquitoes were UNBEARABLE. It doesn't seem like they sprayed at all for them and we were being eaten alive. Also the playground was so filthy it turned my sons hand black. I have never seen a playground that dirty before.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. We have been experience a significant amount of mosquitoes this camping season and continue to try recommended yard sprays. Thank you for bringing your concerns about the playground to our attention, we will look into treatment. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay.

Staff is always friendly. This campground is one of my favorites. Everything is walkable. There is plenty to do for all ages.
Sep 05, 2023
Sam was super nice and very informative. All of the staff was super nice and always willing to help and had a smile on their faces. Loved all of the things they had for the kiddos to do.

Friendly & clean! We loved the activities & all that the campground had to offer! Would definitely stay with KOA again!
Sep 05, 2023
Family had a great time and we would come back again.
Sep 05, 2023
First time at this KOA.. everything was great.. loved having wood n ice delivered to your site..girls at store/office were very polite but could use some interpersonal skills with the public. Will definitely comeback next season..
Sep 05, 2023
The KOA is good. We have been multiple times. This year was not as good. Mosquitos were horrible. With bug spray and long sleeves/pants no one could enjoy being outside. We all left with over 100 bites. Also, the new policy of no outside fire wood is a bit much. Some of us live with 15 minutes of the campground, the wood from our house is no different than wood from your location.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for choosing us for your camping trip. This camping season, we have battled a wet season causing many mosquitos, we have been spraying. We continue to ask there is no outside firewood brought in for the protection of our surrounding trees. Our wood is treated to ensure no infestation.

Overall a great trip. The whole staff is polite and they all do an excellent job with the campground.

Emmett KOA was one of the nicer KOAs we stayed at during our monthlong trip. Great features for kids (waterpark, jumping pillow, games, playground). Working and inexpensive 24 hour laundry and clean bathrooms.
Sep 02, 2023
I felt that Emmitt provided fun and entertainment for kids on weekend but nothing during the week or Sundays I also felt that adding extra people above 2 was expensive.
Sep 02, 2023
My mom and I have stayed at KOA for the past two years, and we absolutely love it! It’s quite, clean and the staff is great!
Sep 01, 2023
Friendly and helpful staff. My only complaint (and it's important for campers to know) is that quiet hours are not enforced. I was told that Security patrols the grounds at "about 12:30pm." Quiet hours begin at 11 pm and it was VERY loud. Security needs to begin making their rounds at 11:15 and informing loud (and rude) campers to quiet down. Go inside and have fun, but don't impose on others
