Everything was lovely during our stay for 2 nights.

Laundromat was old, 6 dryers only 4 worked & 1 of 4 had a broken door handle. Speeding throughout campground even tho signs posted. Garden was beautiful, campground clean. Unlevel sites.

The staff was always kind and caring! Our cabin was clean and comfortable. The stream was a lot of fun but the Best part was the Diamond Mine! We had a great time at both the camp and the mine! We learned a lot about Town of Herkimer too. Can't wait till next year to go back! If your looking to do something cool with your family and friends, Go check this place out and Find some Diamonds!!!!!!!

Enjoyable overnight stay. Our friends stayed two sites away from us. � Add some shelves in the women’s shower to put soap and shampoo on.

We went midweek and had a great time. Only thing we would have changed is needing to ask for the pool to be opened as it was quite warm and locked. Camp staff didn’t mind opening it for us, so that was fine but the maintenance guy would hover letting us know it’d be locked by 5. We were in at 3 pm. Facilities, grounds, showers were all clean and maintained.

We did not feel the cost of the stay was worth the price charged: additional charge for person #3+; no showers on the new side (only across the street); no paved road up the steep grade hill; only $2.00 discount at mine and then charged extra fee for Fri/Sat/Sun; no dog run in new area. I have stayed at other KOAs for less, with more amenities. Best of luck.

The campground is well maintained and it’s nice being able to use the West Canada Creek. The sites near the garden are very tight. There is a serious lack of bathrooms for campers. There usually was a line. There is a single camper dump station and the black tank flush is a joke as the spigot is hooked up in line with the spray nozzle and no way to isolate the flow.

We had a great time, but the tv didn’t work. KOA sent Tom to help us. He was great, and fixed our tv and was very knowledgeable about the campground.

Positives:The lawn was mowed! There were more activities planned for the whole family. Check in was easy, the staff was friendly and helpful. Negatives:The price per night is outrageous- we used to visit at a minimum of 4 times per year but have cut down to the 2 big holiday weekends only. Our sewer kept backing up and we had a difficult time emptying our tank 2xs(full hook up site). The Garden:

Overall, the campground is beautiful! The courtyard with fireplaces and entertainment was a pleasant surprise. Staff was very kind and helpful. We stayed in solar three it was the perfect cabin and dog friendly. The only downside was the shower would not stay warm or would go from ice cold to scalding hot no matter what we did over the three days the cabin was clean but could’ve used a dusting.

This was our second time staying for Labor Day weekend and we had a great time. Lots of activities for the kids to do!

Beautiful and clean campground! The activities were awesome! The mine and store across the street is really great!

You have a nice place but I have a couple complaints the sites on the water are too narrow . When I put my slide outs out I felt bad for my neighbors on the other side as it really blocked them in. All they really had for room was the cement slab. And we could not get our trailer level with our leveling system. We worked on it for over 5 plus hrs. Moving the camper 2 times.

clean quiet friendly power was fluctuating water was foul smelling other than that a great place to stay

We brought our granddaughters 11 & 8. They seemed bored and disappointed they didn’t find diamonds. The area seemed to be mined out. However they said they still enjoyed the weekend with all your activities. You have a beautiful facility and it is well maintained. Check in was quick and easy.

It was ok, - campground very well maintained. - staff was ok, not very pleasant but not rude. They could have done a better job explaining things. DISLIKES - getting charged a resort fee really no reason for it. - no free entry to diamond mine or reduced rate. - everything was over priced and or money grab.

We stayed at the trailer on the mountainside and it was beautiful. The only thing it was far away from the activities especially to let my granddaughter to go down to . We needed a car always.

It is unfortunate how downhill it went so fast. Now 6 stays..we won’t be back. The first stay we were hooked&loved it! The newly renovated park was impressive too! It made the drive off the highway worth it! The structure is still there. The amenities/activitesthat require staffing..not happening. No restaurant 2x now! Food trucks closed early on Labor Day wknd! Obvious $ grab. Frustratin

The lodge was nice/comfortable. The pool was nice. A few things would have made it better: better communication, we called 2x before our stay and 1x there and no return calls, provide dishwasher detergent- the dishes were dirty when we arrived and we had to wash them again by hand, remote to TV was missing when we arrived so unusable and no remedy, better sheets/pillows and more/bigger pots/pans.

We had a great family getaway for a few days at Herkimer Diamond KOA, our lodge was really nice, loved access to all the amenities and having the Diamond Mine right across the street.

Several advertised amenities closed. Very rude manager at the cafe. Had to find our own way to our campsite yet the next day saw several campers being escorted to their campsite. Road erosion is bad. Site was slopped really bad.

Great stay. Beautiful grounds. The only issue we had was the air conditioning didn’t work. However they provided a credit to us for the inconvenience of no air. I would also love to see the cabins updated with new furniture etc and remove all of the dust collecting “collectibles” in the cabins. Very outdated.

We brought two grand boys for a couple days, and we loved our stay in the cabins by the mines. Will definitely plan another trip to dig for treasures and enjoy everything else the park has to offer�

Clean cabin, friendly staff, beautiful setting, lots of activities for the whole family. My family reunion was a great success thanks in part to all your efforts to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Thank you!!

Excellent, Beautiful, Easy!

We visited for only one night, but the staff was accommodating and, because we arrived later in the day, the food trucks were a welcomed treat. The campground is beautiful!

1. The reservation was mixed up when we arrived but they were able to fix it without too much fanfare and, 2. The campsite they gave us didn’t have a fire ring so we didn’t have a fire at the site. Other than those things, the new mountainside camping sites were quiet, clean, and very nicely landscaped. The campground management and crew couldn’t have been nicer. Thank you.

Very nice campground. Very clean. The staff was very nice. My grandkids had a great time! Definitely will be back

Our stay was fantastic my wife and I can't wait to come back we'd also say the staff was more than happy to help us with anything we needed special thanks to Harold absolutely love talking with him.

Facilities were well maintained and clean. I'm not sure why, but there were so many flies up on the Mountainside Campground!! It got to be very annoying. Other than that, our family enjoyed our first stay at Herkimer Diamond KOA.

We had a great time! Staff was so friendly and helpful. Lots of amenities and activities to do. Only one minor thing - the timing for the activities didn’t always seem accurate as we showed up for two different ones and no one was there. Not sure if they were just cancelled or something. Other than that, all was amazing!

We didn't realize that we would have to drive up and down large hills to get to our campsite. The pod was too small, I don't feel like its Glamping, its more like a tiny cabin. I truly expected more for the price. Maybe some of the other accommodations were worth it, not the Mountainside glamping pod

We came back to Herkimer Diamond KOA after coming in 2019. We booked 2 nights in one of the solar lodges, and after the first day extended our stay because we loved it so much! We loved that we were a very short walk to the playground for our littles and our bigger kids were able to go walk to the mines on their own!
Aug 26, 2024
sites are a little close together, and the listings say "electricity" is included with the site however there is not a single outlet. We could have prepared better if we knew the site was incorrect.

Wow What a great experience. We came here with our five dogs from florida and spent the day in the herkimer diamond mine and Christian was an awesome help. Definitely planning on coming back

Herkimer KOA campground is an awesome place to stay for a vacation or just a weekend. Especially if you are going mining at Herkimer diamond mine or other nearby mine. KOA has a ton of activities and amenities on site. From tubing down the West Canada Creek to swimming to disc golf and food trucks. There's a little something for everyone here. The camp store has a ton of supplies to make your camping trip easy and fun. The campground is directly across the street from the Herkimer Diamond Mine, so there is no need to pack the car for a day of fun. Just cross the street! Safely, of course.. Once you're done at the Mine, come back and enjoy all the KOA has to offer.

The camp ground itself is small in comparison to some, but still quite nice. The entire outer ring of the campground has a lovely view of the creek, which is accessible for splashing and fun. Very friendly staff, they do deliver wood directly to your site which is nice. Although, we started in early June nothing was open in the central garden. No ice cream, drinks or food as advertised on the site map you are provided at check in. So I cannot attest to whether or not that is good. The dog park is nice, although a little small, I do like that areas are provided throughout the park for owners to dispose of their dogs waste to encourage clean up. We did venture across the road to the mining portion and rather enjoyed that as well. A little pricy, but we would return for the views.
