We had a great time. My grandson was very sad to leave and made us promise we would comeback.We will!

Our kids love camping at Herkimer so much, that even when our camper was out of commission, we pivoted and rented a rustic cabin. The Diamond Mine and Geode Reveal were huge hits again this year. And we just love building core memories with our kids running around a camp ground with their friends and flashlights. The whole property is maintained to a high standard.

Everyone was extremely nice. Got there after hours and they opened the store again to make sure I had everything I needed for the stay. The cabin was clean and beautiful. The entire resort was clean. The food was amazing. The prices in the main store and mine gift shop was reasonable. First time mining was amazing staff gave helpful pointers and renting equipment was easy.

Everything was very clean and well thought out. We loved staying near the Creek. The towels were extremely cheap and left lint on me after my shower. Everything else was fantastic!

Thank you for a wonderful stay. We stayed in ML cabin and our troop and pack camped in the tent sites. Everyone had a very enjoyable time and is still talking about the mine. The scouts enjoyed the gift shop, the playground and the Gaga pit as well. My most memorable experience was meeting Hazel and her human Mom. Please be sure to thank them for their hospitality.

Our cabin upon arrival was full of dog hair, clumps of it. All over the bottom bunk, all over the full size beds sheets and clumps all over the floor. The cabin had not been swept. Had to clean before I could let the kids in so my daughter wouldn't have an asthma attack. Other than this our stay was great.
May 13, 2026
We had an amazing time, even despite the rainy weather. The glamping pods were small, but comfy and the shower was very hot. The 2 bundles of wood could easily have been 1, but we used all of it on Day 1 since it rained Day 2. The 'free' hammers are worthless and the office did not not have a wedge to rent to us. Fortunately, we rented a larger hammer and a guest gifted us a small wedge.

Our stay at the Herkimer Diamond KOA was peaceful and relaxing. The staff were incredibly friendly, and our cabin was clean, cozy, and quiet with beautiful scenery all around. It felt like a true nature retreat while still being just 15 minutes from town amenities. The perfect place to unplug, recharge, and enjoy the outdoors. We can’t wait to come back!

Not happy with all the higher prices for everything from cabin prices, mine entrance fee, sleuth bag fee, etc. The restaurant used to be part of our favorite experience when they had a great chef. Very disappointed. I do like the craft sessions they offer. Been coming for over 10 years and no diamonds around like it used to be.
May 10, 2026
We had an absolutely wonderful time at this campground and the mine across the street. The grounds are beautifully maintained, cabin cozy, and the staff were all so friendly and welcoming. I wish every camp experience was like the weekend we were able to have in Herkimer last weekend!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

What a joy to read your kind words. We are glad you enjoyed the cozy cabin, the well kept grounds, and the friendly staff, and that the mine added to your weekend. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we would be happy to welcome you back again.

This was our 2nd year staying in our favorite cabin. It was an adventure because it rained our 1st 2 days. We mined in the rain and found more crystals than last year. My husband had one diamond set in a ring for my Mother's Day gift. The cabin is so wonderful. It had everything. We just needed our clothes! Everything includes shampoo, conditioner and liquid soap in the shower, the list goes on!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

What a wonderful story to read. We are glad your favorite cabin made your stay so comfortable, even with the rainy start. Mining in the rain sounds like a fun memory, and the ring is such a special gift! Thank you for sharing, and we would be happy to welcome you back again.

We were 5 people in a cabin that sleeps 5. There is only 3 beds so in order for all to sleep we had to squeeze in an inflatable bed. Our shower water kept getting cold quickly if it came through at all and this was a problem on cold evenings to shower at the bathhouse and walk back to our cabin with children

Thank you for sharing this feedback. Your notes about the cabin layout and the water issues are important, and we will review them as we work to improve comfort and convenience for families.

My family and some friends rented the Diamond Lodge for two nights. Everyone LOVED it! The perfect spot for cooking group meals and hanging on the porch with a gorgeous river view. It was very clean, private, and spacious enough for the kids and parents to relax. Fully equipped with everything you need. Spiral staircase might be tricky for younger kids and older folks. We can't wait to return!

My wife and I got the deluxe cabin. It was very comfortable, warm. I loved that we had a little kitchen area to cook, especially with the provided kerosene grill outside and fire pit. It was super cozy and I already can't wait to return even if only just for the camp. My only issue, was that the wifi was a awful. The mine was interesting and exhausting all together.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing your experience. It is great to hear the deluxe cabin felt cozy and that the kitchen setup and outdoor space worked well for your stay. Your note about the WiFi is helpful, and we appreciate the feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back!

Fantastic! We can’t recommend this location enough! It was our first visit to the area but we will definitely return based on this experience. No complaints with the cabin we stayed in and linens were brand new, which we appreciated! Staff at both the campground store and Miners Village were friendly and welcoming.

last year: 5 stars in a deluxe cabin. That cabin was brand new, great set up. This year, we got a deluxe cabin that was older, worn, the kitchen was missing some of the basics (ex. spatula for the grill). Still tons of stuff for my kid to do and we had fun, so I would do 4 stars, but our cabin had tons of wasps. husband got stung, we complained, they sprayed and told us it happens every year.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We are glad your family enjoyed the activities and that you had fun together. Your feedback about the cabin condition and the wasp issue is important as we review how to improve the guest experience moving forward.

There were ants all through our cabin and even in the bedding. The maintenance guy was very nice and brought us bug spray but it did not stop the ants from coming in and only resulted in dead ants all of the floor, bed, and counter.
Apr 20, 2026
Prices are too high
Apr 20, 2026
Accommodations were very good. Facility was well set up. Only concern was seeing people climbing on cliffs and hammering rock above children. Did see a partial collapse of cliff face which, fortunately, did not hit anyone. Need to enforce rules and not just say them.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad the accommodations and facility met your expectations. We take safety very seriously, and we appreciate you bringing this concern to our attention. We will address it with our team to ensure rules are properly enforced.

The cabin was exactly what we needed. Everything was great. I loved that we were literally steps away from the mine.

We had a wonderful stay at cabin 352 this year, its our second year here and having more time to enjoy the area and camp was perfect for us. Even during a difficult time with the water pump having issues the staff were extremely accommodating and willing to work with us to make our stay be special still. Thank you so much for another beautiful year and we will see you next year.

Overall we had a nice time. The grounds were nice and the dig was great. Our cabin wasn't what we had expected, tried to fix with management, but was met with alot of attitude and no resolution. Refused any recompense for the issue. That was incredibly frustrating and put a big damper on our stay. There were 2 staff that stood out as exemplary , Nancy from the gift shop, and jewelry maker guy

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing your experience. We are glad you enjoyed the grounds, the dig, and the outstanding service from Nancy and our jewelry maker. Your feedback about the cabin situation is appreciated as we continue to improve.

Everything was great until more visitors came and we were stuck between four barking dogs and a rude family. 15 empty cabins and staff decided to place the obvious obnoxious people on either side of our cabin.

Three adults rented a cabin along the water. It was clean and was stocked with what we needed for a comfortable stay. Beautiful views! One suggestion...for the upper bunk bed, it would be helpful to have a spot to put items like a cell phone and eyeglasses. Perhaps a hanging net bag?

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Your cabin stay sounds wonderful, and those water views must have been beautiful. Thank you for the helpful note about the upper bunk. A small storage spot would be useful. We would be glad to welcome you back for another relaxing visit.

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
