Overall Camper Rating:

I brought 11 rigs to stay 2-4 nights. Brad and his folks helped us in every way! The Mile High Trailblazers will be back! 6/1/2020

Overall, facility was well, maintained, and very clean with good WiFi. Cons were train noise in the mornings, & narrow & short sites. We camped there in a 31’ fifth wheel. I had to park sideways to my rv so my truck wouldn’t stick out too far into the roadway... 6/1/2020

We had a great time. Well maintained camp ground with great bathrooms. 6/1/2020

We are pleased with our stay.Staff friendly and area always clean. 6/1/2020

We stayed at the La Junta KOA Thursday night and really liked it and stayed again on the following Sunday night. Great kids playground. 5/30/2020

My stay was pleasant and uneventful which is just the way it should be after a long day on the road. The staff was courteous and professional,the facilities were clean and well maintained. This is why I use KOA. You always know what to expect. Thanks 5/29/2020

Everything was good except the large pull through sites and the streets were not nearly big enough. I had a 40 foot motor coach with the small trailer... 5/28/2020
