Everyone liked the campground. Our cabin was clean and nicely decorated. The heat and air worked well. The bed was comfortable and there was enough plates, pots and silverware. There was no food on site because it was only offered on the weekends. Our only problem was the bathroom door. It was broken. It was a sliding, somewhat heavy, door that was challenging to move.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for the great feedback! We are happy to hear you enjoyed the cabin and amenities. We appreciate you letting us know about the bathroom door and will address it. Sorry about the limited food options during your stay, hope to see you again soon!

Two reasons for not a 5 were..the dumpstation is on a hill! And not in a traffic friendly place. Second is, for the price, the sight was very short and not an easy back in for how small they are. The grounds are beautiful!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for the thoughtful feedback! We are glad you enjoyed the beautiful grounds. We understand your concerns about the dump station and site layout, and we will definitely take that into consideration as we look to improve. We hope to welcome you back again!

Small cabins were very cute and clean. Loved the proximity to the diamond mining. Only wish they had more closet storage for your clothes and brighter lighting. I will definitely visit again!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We had so much fun staying here! We rented a pod and it was very comfortable. I had fun doing tie-die and rafting on the river. I would def stay again-probably the nicest campground we have stayed at. thank you

We were very pleased with the KOA until Saturday evening. The cabin was everything we could hope for and needed. It was a very peaceful stay, until Saturday evening. There was a wedding reception in the event tent and the DJ could be heard all over the park! It was not pleasant music! We were in cabin DK2 directly down the hill from the tent. We will not stay here again if there's an event.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Joseph, we are so happy to hear that the beginning of your stay was very peaceful and pleasant! We are sorry to hear about the second part of your stay. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Our goal is that your entire stay is just right! Please do come stay with us again soon!

The new mini homes are lovely. A beautiful view! As with all things there were a few flaws. No shampoo in dispenser, floor of shower is pitched oddly, no cleaning tools or trash bags. All in all a lovely stay.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your kind words! We are glad you enjoyed the new mini homes and the beautiful view. We appreciate your helpful feedback about the shampoo, shower floor, and supplies, we will work on those details to make future stays even better. We would love to welcome you back soon!

The staff were absolutely incredible, so polite and helpful. I only rated 4 stars because the shower water never got hot, only one shower got to warm at the end of the women’s bathroom. I understand it’s the end of the season and staff was probably cut but the one staff member working both food stations (the grill and the cafe) could’ve used some help as it was busy. We can’t wait to come

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your thoughtful review, Katie! We are thrilled to hear our staff made a great impression. We appreciate your feedback about the showers and busy food stations, your comments help us improve. We cannot wait to welcome you back for an even better visit!

With electrical being cut off with no notice and being on C-Pap a phone call would have been nice don't all ways have access to E-mail

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are very sorry to hear about the unexpected power outage and understand how important reliable electricity is, especially with a C-Pap machine. Your feedback is important, thank you for bringing this to our attention.

The staff were friendly and the park and bathrooms were clean. Nice spacious sites in a beautiful setting. Access to the diamond mine was easy and there were a lot of activities for a family to enjoy. My disappointment was with the firewood purchased there and that the dining options were not available. The restaurant was closed and snack shop was not open during posted hours.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are so glad you enjoyed our friendly staff, clean facilities, and beautiful setting, especially with easy access to the diamond mines and all the fun family activities. We truly appreciate your feedback and will work to improve your next visit!

The beds were in poor shape, the table leg fell off. Floor was not clean when we checked in. Definitely not worth $600 for 2 nights. Staff were friendly.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet expectations. We truly appreciate your feedback and will share it with our team to ensure these issues are addressed. We are glad our staff made a positive impression and hope we can do better next time.

This place is great but the bed were really uncomfortable and I had to sleep.in my car. The lights on the cabins are yellow and.not bright at all. Had a hard time cooking in the evening

We had a great experience as soon as we pulled in. The place was super clean and well-maintained. Had a slight issue with a camper that their dog would not stop barking. The manager took immediate action and took care of the situation. We ate at the old airstream concession stand, and the food is great. We dealt with Nancy a few times and she was super helpful and friendly. The manager great!!!!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are so glad you had a great experience from the get go! Thank you for your kind words about our staff, the well maintained grounds, and the Airstream concession stand. We will be sure to share your compliments with Nancy and the manager. We look forward to your next visit!

Very comfortable cottage. However, I did not see the description for the "loft" bedroom with two twin beds. Us 70 something adults found them unusable with only 3.5 ft headroom. But, between the queen bed and futon, we were fine.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback! We are glad you found the cottage comfortable overall. We appreciate your insights and hope to welcome you back again!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

This is our second visit this season. This campground is awsome . From activities , the camp store, clean bathrooms, and instant access to the West Canada Creek this is the place that's good for anyone. Had a GREAT time. And will be back next season.

Herkimer Diamond KAO is a beautiful campground. Very quite and family oriented. I enjoyed my stay. The only complaint I have is the mattresses in the cabins are not comfortable.

Very clean facility, but we really didn't get the chance to take advantage of what it had to offer since we had other things going on.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for the review! We are glad you found everything clean and hope you can enjoy more of what we offer next time. We would love to have you back!

Liked everything except the fact that on our first night they checked someone in at 11:30pm so we were woken up to banging and clanking and profanity being shouted by this individual as he set his tent up without a light so he turned his car on in front of OUR site not his and had the lights shining right on our tent. Livid is an understatement. There’s more. But no room to type

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are truly sorry your stay was disrupted. That experience is not what we want for our guests. We appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We hope you will consider giving us another chance.

Just stayed overnight but the campground was in a beautiful valley with lovely trees. With a dinner truck and an ice cream stand, right by a river, cute clamping pods and cabins, it had something for everyone.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for the lovely review, Deborah! We are glad you enjoyed your stay, the beautiful natural setting, and the amenities, even if it was for a night. We look forward to welcoming you back for a longer visit in the future!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Me and my friend took her 9 yr old grandson here this past weekend. We stayed in a cozy cabin K16. Fresh linens provided, very clean, rustic, cute. This particular one did not have a bathroom but it was very close. Pretty, well maintained site with playground. Staff is FABULOUS and Phil gave our car a jump start as we were trying to leave with a dead battery. Outside of bathroom big sinks with Dawn soap/hot water to wash dishes. All the cabins and sites are beautiful and we had the mohawk to wade in a stone's throw! The shops are beautiful and he had fun in the mines. Not 1 piece of garbage, anywhere. I highly recommend this beautiful place, especially with a family. U can be in the thick of things or more secluded! JUST GO and see this 'GEM' of Upstate, NY!

Overall this is a great campground with excellently maintained common spaces, clean showers and bathrooms, a super fun activities schedule and friendly staff. Also its located directly across the street from the KOA Herkimer Diamond Mine, so we walked there which was convenient. We rented a glamping site for 4 which is suitable for a night or two. The only issue was the actual room was dirty ( had dust and animal hair everywhere ) the coffee maker didnt work and the towels provided were super small. I'm still giving 5 stars and still 100% recommend staying here. The beds were comfortable and the sheets decent. Many of sites, including the one we rented, are facing the river. Ours had a sweet little pourch and a swinging chair for two. All that makes up for the dirty room. Cause clearly this place is awesome and I feel lucky that I got to stay here.
