Staff was friendly and helpful. The glamping pod was great. The little AC unit worked awesome!! It was a hot weekend. My only suggestion is maybe shades on the windows. 5 am comes in bright and early! ;) We'd be back again.

the campground was neat and well maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful. Something needs to be done about people driving too fast in the campground We were on site 64 and cars and campers were costantly driving by our site at a rate of speed that was definitely well above the posted campground speed limit!

Reservations on line was not very easy. When we got to the check in desk, we were not even close to what we reserved and quite a walk away from family. You can no longer book at the desk.

We were sad that the dining options were not open and the wood we purchased seemed wet. However, our cabin was clean and super cute! All the personnel were very friendly and we enjoyed our stay very much!

This camp ground is beautiful and immaculate. The facilities are very well maintained nice store events happening on the weekends. We were put in a site on what is called mountain side across the street and up a hill very peaceful gorgeous views. Although very nice we were completely separated from the activities at the lower camp ground. We love the sounds of children playing people visiting so

We are so glad you enjoyed the beauty and peacefulness of the mountain side! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We appreciate the feedback and hope to welcome you back for more great memories!

Beautiful area, would have preferred to be on river but mountainside was great, although the road up was very rough

We have stayed at the campground several times. The landscaping is beautiful and the staff is very friendly. The only complaint we have is almost every visit a fire has been started by the staff over by the pavilion and it is left to smolder and stink from its smoke. Very annoying when you have your windows open or want to sit outside

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for being a returning guests and for your kind words about our staff and landscaping-we truly appreciate it! Thank you for the feedback about the recurring issue and we will be sure to address it. We want every stay to be a pleasant one and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!

We reserv golf cart , but later told, we can't have it cross the road. The pool super cold. 2 restaurants in the mining video,both were closed. Amenities weren't explained at check in and many amenities listed on your website were unable to enjoy due to not being told about and/or closed. For a resort, we are very unhappy. A partial refund would be greatly appreciated.

Beautiful area on “The Mountainside Campground”, with spacious sites, great landscaping at each site and nice views of the ponds. My wife’s favorite spot and close in the running with my “first”.

Everyone there was very helpful and kind. My son loved all the activities. We tented and the site was kept up well. My car would not start so the KOA staff helped to jump start my car.

Stayed in a Deluxe Cabin at Herkimer Diamond KOA to and from a road trip out east. Stayed on a weekend and a week day. The cabins were extremely clean and the staff was super friendly upon check in and check out. "The Garden" area is beautiful and has food available on the weekend. We have already recommended this place to others.

The staff was professional, friendly and very knowledgable! They helped make this a terrific get away for us! We plan to come back again soon and possibly look into a seasonal site. This isn't our first time here but it was absolutely the BEST!

We loved the atmosphere there. Staff were all very cheerful and loads of smiles! I plan on coming back for a longer stay. The tent sites were very well kept. And tons of activities for my grandson to do. My only complaint was that there was no coffee made in the store and I had to go to town to get coffee. Also the second night there a family of 7 was put next to us. They were loud past midnight.

Grounds are beautiful and probably the best designed KOA we have ever stayed in. That said, we were sandwiched in a spot river side with a huge tree to negotiate (just too close for comfort!!). We were also directly across from an inflatable with a motor running ALL day - unpleasant to sit outside and impossible to enjoy the sounds of the river. Pay the additional $25 to reserve a decent spot!

Tent campsites were very close together. A group arrived late and were yelling and screaming past 2am. Don't you enforce quiet hours?

We stayed in the mountainside area and it was beautiful. It was quiet and peaceful. Nice landscaping gave added privacy between sites. Didn’t use the amenities as we were there overnight and it was raining but everything looked well kept.

Though the campground wasn't crowded, we were placed in a mountainside spot. There are no showers available there, only restroom. Showers were to be accessed from a trail, then stairs and then across the street/highway. Unfortunately, the trail to the stairs necessitated tromping thru 3feet of unmoved brush. The Lapidary showers had no hot water. The bathroom at site 200 had no lights.

We stayed 1 night in a deluxe cabin. The cabin was comfortable and clean. We enjoyed the quietness of the cabins in the mining village once the village was closed for the day. We did walk around at the campground across the road and loved seeing the river. It is a wonderful spot, and I have told friends about it and have recommended it.

We stayed for just one night but everyone was amazing and so nice! We rented out the astrology cabin it was very cute and on theme. Our only complaint is that we thought there would have been a telescope and there's even posters in the dome and cabin giving instructions for a telescope they no longer have there. But other than that everything was incredible and we definitely will return.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for the kind words! We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay in one of our astrology themed cabins and had a great experience with our team. We appreciate the feedback about the telescope - sorry for the confusion, and we will update the signage. We look forward to your return!

We loved our stay! We were comfortable, and most important we felt safe to leave our cats while we mined and showed them love by welcoming them with their scarves! ♥��

I received your message and am really disappointed in koa. Our family has held a reunion in Herkimer for over 15 years, bringing 70-80 cousins together making countless memories. It now includes four generations.I found it necessary to cancel some reservations due to family reasons. I was told I would be charged $25 each. Customer service is the key to successful business operations, this is an extremely poor example of that skill. The amount of $25 for each reservation cancellation adds onto an already large amount of money I spend there .Koa would not miss this amount, in my financial life, it matters. It also says a lot about koa and their lack of appreciation for loyal customers
