It was great. My only suggestion - don't nickle and dime people - our cabin was ready, but they still charged us $25 early check in fee. They said it is automatic for any check in before 3pm. I assume that is a KOA regulation. frustrating.

Very neat , clean campground. Lots to discover there and do. Friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful scenery in the mountains. The Herkimer Mine was an added plus to visiting the area. Will return there again and stay longer next time. Love the serenity of the river.

Had a great weekend with the hubby! Enjoyed the creek and campground. Bingo was a good time. Cabin and bathrooms were clean. Been going for 6 years, and our only complaint is the cost getting so high. In 2021 a deluxe cabin was $220/night and for 2026 they are going up to over $400/night. Other than that no complaints, girl at front desk was very helpful also. Be back next year in small cabin.

Loved our stay. Didn’t use any of the activities, but our site was very comfortable and clean. The only negative from our visit was the mattress - it seemed to slant on one side and my partner fell out of bed 3 times while sleeping, which is not a normal occurrence. It was also so soft it hurt my back/kept me awake! So the mattress was awful. We were still happy and would return.

Nice campground. We stayed as a 2 night rest stop, did not use much in the facilities. The incoming staff was friendly and the site was easy to get into. The site was mainly dirt and fairly level. WSE all worked. It rained heavy that night and we did end up with 1/4" of mud around the camper which explains the dirt. Being end of the year it was quiet. Incoming and outgoing road is fairly narrow.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We are glad to hear you had a smooth check-in and that your site was easy to access with everything in working order. We appreciate your comments and will keep them in mind as we continue to improve the campground experience.

Great location and well tended park with a lot additional things for all ages. The only issue that we saw/had was the main bathhouse at the admin building was under construction for remodeling with a tile job half done. While there was no work going on during the Holiday weekend it was unfortunate to have it out of order during that period. Would definitely do a return trip... Thanks JimS

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for the thoughtful review! We are glad you enjoyed the location and amenities. Sorry for the inconvenience with the bathhouse during the holiday. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to your return!

The treehouse appears much larger on your website. It was very cramped and we were unable to get any local news. Need instructions for Roku tv.

Very well kept KOA grounds. The cabin we were in needed the drains of bathroom sink and shower unclogged. They kept filling up when used. We did ask them to come out and they did, they poured draino down the shower drain but it wasn't enough. The staff was very friendly and responsive. Very nice campground.

Everything was great with the exception of the chicken BBQ. We paid $20. Each 2 people. We had to toss most of it out, it was very under cooked.

As always, it was a true pleasure staying at YOUR KOA in Herkimer! It is so family friendly and the staff is always so friendly and helpful. One suggestion is that you place some hooks in your cabins in the bathrooms and on one side of the entry door. This would be of great help to hand jackets, towels, etc. Other than that, it is a place we look forward to coming every Labor Day Weekend!

The prices are getting too high, which is most likely why the campground had quite a few open sites. You are going to out price yourselves! We only continue coming holiday weekends because of the water/creek. And, paying a daily activity fee but then you charge for most of the activities is a greedy move. On a positive note, the staff are friendly, and the grounds were mowed and cleaned.

The burger food truck was a huge hit with our family. Best smash burger I've eaten! The campground amenities were wonderful. The pool, pedal carts and recreation activities were a hit with the grandchildren.

Had a great time. For the most part everything was well kept. Couple issues-pool is dirty, cracked concrete needs updating. Key did not work to rhe cabin. Had to walk from mining cabins to front office just to walk back and wait for someone. Shower hot water didnt work, front burner on stove didnt work. Also mining was not easy. I feel like they mine the good ones for the store.

This place was soooo much better than I was expecting. The staff was super nice. My son had so much to do. And it was really easy for me to walk around with my wine while he rode his bike, played on the bounce house and went to the pool and playground. The river was super fun to play in too. The trees everywhere were beautiful. It was a great place. I will definitely be back

The campground is very nice with lots of activities but the cabin we rented was very expensive and not clean. Also, the pull out sofa bed felt like springs covered in vinyl. We don’t mind rustic, but for over $350 for one night, we expect clean and comfortable accommodations.

Thank you for your honest feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the campground and activities, but we are truly sorry to hear that your cabin did not meet expectations. We hope we can provide a better experience in the future.

This was our first stay at a KOA and it was perfect! The staff here were so friendly and accommodating. We had a great time finding Herkimer Diamonds in the mine, enjoyed sitting near the river and eating our ice cream from Scoops. Our cabin was the perfect size for the two of us and very convenient to the mine. The kids we saw there were enjoying all the fun activities. 10 stars!!!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are thrilled your first KOA stay was a perfect one. It is great to hear you enjoyed all that our campground has to offer. We hope to welcome you back for more fun and relaxation soon!

The cabin was cozy, comfortable and convenient! The fact that full linens (including towels and washcloths) were provided, there was a mini fridge and that there was a swing, chairs, picnic table and sturdy fire pit with a swinging cooking grate was wonderful! Everything was clean and cared for, great activities offered, and very helpful and kind staff. 100% recommend!

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
