Orlando / Kissimmee KOA Holiday Reviews

My family and I drove to Florida on our first family road trip from Canada! It was a long 3 days to get here with 2 young kids but so glad we have the experience. We spent several days lounging at our campsite, but did venture off to Disney World, Gatorland, some local flea markets, and shopping. We stayed here for 1 week and overall it was a positive experience. I'm especially grateful for the groundskeeping staff who entertained my 5 year old and putting a huge smile on his face so many times throughout our stay. If you get the chance to read this, thank you. These are memories I know he'll have forever. I would also like to note they were very accommodating with adding 2 days to our pre booked site when we decided to come down earlier. They rearranged some things so we didn't have to switch sites, and we really appreciated that! We are avid campers throughout Ontario, but I like to leave Pro's and Con's lists for future campers looking for a place to stay :) Pros: -Pool and hot tub are open until 9pm -Sites are maintained well as far as grass cutting/tree trimming -Multiple washers and dryers -Close to grocery stores, restaurants, shopping and a 20 minute drive to Disney World -Heated salt water pool & hot tub with ample lounging chairs and covered tables -The groundskeeping staff are very friendly and attentive -Convenient garbage pickup at your site during the day Cons: -Showers need updated badly. Very low water pressure (at one point I had to turn around to make sure the water was in fact still running), and the "hot" water lasted under 5 minutes before it became cold. There's also no dry area in the shower to get dressed afterwards so that sucked. -The kids park needs cleaned. It's quite disgusting the amount of grime that is built up on the playground. I don't expect a playground to be "clean", because kids are gross, but it's coated in black grime. A quick soak and power wash would clean it up nicely! Was also disappointed there was no infant/toddler swing for the little ones. -One of the younger office staff we found to be very off putting and quite snotty. This was over a few interaction's so not sure if that's just her attitude or if she just hates her job but it definitely sucked to encounter when the remainder of the staff were so kind -We found 75% of the wood we purchased on site wasn't quite dry and it was really difficult to get the fire going -I swear the full bars of wifi is just for show 🥲 it's really not great but I do find it works best at night. We also didn't have good cell service here (AT&T), it was very spotty -Store is only open until 5pm, it is what it is but it does suck especially if you're out during the day and get back after dinner and want firewood or something. Just have to plan ahead! I see some other reviews with similar "cons", so hopefully over time the owners will take these into consideration. Overall we had a great experience and would definitely come back here!
