Late night check in was easy, map to the site was good to follow. Seems the theme for the KOA’s I’ve stayed at is trains run nearby! Downside is the 7 gallon minimum for propane, my tank is only 6 gallon and usually maximum I get is 4.5 so I wouldn’t pay for twice the amount I can hold(stupid rule).

Very clean. Attendants seemed readily available if needed. The location is also close to college town for good food and activities. Would stay here again (deluxe cabin review).

It was wonderful

I was put off by the shared green space. You are very close to the next camper. The nearby trains are noisy at night. Staff was accommodating and friendly.

Such a well-run campground! Very close to the highway and yet it was quiet & surrounded by greenery. The staff was helpful. The site was level, no adjustments needed! If you’re a light sleeper, the sounds from trains might bother you at approx. midnight & 6 AM. Didn’t bother me but woke my husband.

I recently stayed at the KOA in Lawrence, Kansas, and while the location was convenient and the staff was friendly, the facilities were not entirely up to the usual KOA standards I've come to expect. The bathrooms and showers felt outdated and could have been cleaner, and some of the amenities seemed a bit run down. It was still a decent place to stay for a night or two, but it needs updates.

Always nice at this KOA. Checked in after hours on a cool evening. Cabin was spotless and heat was turned on. Clean bathrooms. No complaints. We will be back! Thank you Lawrence KOA.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. KOA was clean and tidy. Dog park is beautiful. Only downside was how tight and close together the camp sites were and how narrow the roads are within the campground. Would stay there again, but if you have a big rig (and we don't), just be aware that it is tight.

Very nice park but the train traffic is a bit too much.

Great stay. Thanks.

Very tight sights and very dusty roads. Plus rates are very high.

Very friendly staff. Bathrooms were always very clean and the water was hot. :) VERY GRATEFUL for the dog park. The store could be vastly improved by providing basic grocery necessities like milk, tea, coffee, eggs, bread, etc. Campground was quiet, free earplugs were thoughtful; trains did not bother us at all. We come to Lawrence often and I'm sure we will stay here again.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Unfortunately as the season starts to wind down, we end up throwing more groceries away than we sell. We do carry all of the basics as mentioned during the season. We hope to see you then.

Well kept campground, sites had mature trees and plenty of space for our truck and travel trailer. Friendly staff, easy access to the highway and Lawrence, 10 to 15 minutes from KU campus.

The amount of days I needed to stay was accommodated to me after seeing on the website that no sites were available. Appreciated the laundry being open 24 hours & having reasonable rates. I was able to spend time with my daughter & son-in-law as well as with 2 of my grandchildren.

Site was very tight with slide outs. Wish sites were wider.

My wife and I camped here for a night and loved it! Thank you!

Everything was great, however I suggest handing out ear buds plugs on arrival free of charge due to proximity of the train

The site that I was put in was too narrow for a slide so I had to position it in a way that only left a small amount of space for the pickup. In that case I angled it so as to only have one tire on the grass/weeds. I then got an email addressing this and was told that I could park it in overflow parking down the hill about 100 yards away. This is unacceptable.

Most enjoyable. Stayed 6 months with no issues what soever.

The sewer hookup was not in a useful place. We had to backup as we were leaving to access it. This defeats the purpose of full hookups. The sewer hookup that would that was taken by adjacent camper would have worked.

Your treatment of pets and pet enclosures is outrageous. Never again will I stay at your KOA.
Oct 03, 2024
Nice campground. Lots of amenities but we stayed just one night so didn’t take advantage of any. East to get on and off from I-70.
Oct 03, 2024
They were so helpful to us, words would be not be enough. We had to arrive early for a family issue. They were understanding and allowed us to temp. park and hookup. Helped us with unhooking our tow. When we returned later that NITE, there was someone there to again help and ensure we got to our spot, and setup for the nite. All with a smile!!! WE WILL BE BACK AGAIN !!!!!!!!!

My husband and I just finished an 8 week stay here. Everyone who works at the campground as well as the owner is super friendly. We dealt with Calvin a lot and he was fantastic. The location is conveniently located near Lawrence, a college town, which has tons of shops and restaurants. Laundry on site was convenient. It is more expensive but we stayed there because it was easy to get propane delivered or refilled for our first round of snow camping. The only downsides would be that the laundry machines require quarters, which you can get at the office if you have cash, but there's no way to get cash on the premises. And the closest ATM is 2 miles away. I also loved that they had free showers available but the doors open inwards to the stall so you literally can't have your bag in the stall with you and you have to step back into the shower to get out of the stall. Yes. There is a train close by and it's loud and running all hours of the night. I bought silicone ear plugs and had zero issues. Overall we enjoyed our stay, thought the employees and managers were great, and loved the location.

I recently stayed at a KOA cabin, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The cabin was spotless, cozy, and perfectly equipped for a comfortable stay. It had everything I needed, from clean bedding to basic kitchen supplies, making it feel like a true home away from home. The surrounding area was beautiful, with plenty of amenities like a pool, playground, and walking trails. It was the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure, and I especially enjoyed the evening campfire activities. I also appreciated how quiet and peaceful the campgrounds were at night, allowing me to fully unwind after a day of exploring. KOA's attention to detail and commitment to providing a great guest experience really shone through. I can't wait to come back for another visit and would highly recommend this location to anyone looking for a fun, clean, and hassle-free getaway!

THE MOST AMAZING EXPERIENCE at a campground! I arrived right before they closed, they got me checked in, and even escorted me to my cabin. The cabin was spotless. Really cool campground with ALL the amenities. The bathrooms were SPOTLESS every day I was there. Laundry was really nice. The pizza and wings were delicious l, and the price can't be beat. They even delivered it to my cabin. Then I needed to stay 3 more days, and they even accommodated that! Every single staff member at KOA was so nice. One member even jump started my car when I left the door slightly open, and it drained my battery!!!! The wifi was for the most part always working fine, the train did not bother me at all. I actually loved falling asleep to it. If you have a chance..STAY HERE!!! Much better than Clinton Lake. Stay here and drive to the lake!
