Campground Reviews

Aug 28, 2023
The stay was good overall. The only negative was a very, very noisy large group of campers playing music and carelessly partying well into the early morning hours. There were no patrols from KOA staff to monitor noise, and there was no apparent way to alert KOA staff via SMS, etc. It would be highly recommended to have KOA staff do evening patrols for noise, especially with groups on weekends.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We apologize for the noisy campers. While our texting line is not monitored after 5pm, there is a number on your map for after-hours emergencies or noise complaints. We do monitor that number at all hours. We are so sorry that you weren't made aware of this. We hope to see you again soon!

Josh is doing a fantastic job with his team and he saved our lives because we made reservation at wrong place, ie Wilmington, NC instead of Wilmington, NY!!!) TY Josh! Megan did extra miles to help us find dates to say for last minutes reservations: her help was VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. We aprpeciate also that garbage are pick-up on each site anytime of the day: this is a great initiave.

Thank you for staying with us! We are so glad Meghan and Josh were able to help. We will be sure to let them know how much you appreciate them. We hope to see you again soon!

Full hookup pull thru site 75 with 34’ TT Full hookup. Staff were excellent. Site was good but had a slope to it front to back. Back was higher requiring 7.5” of blocks. Rest of the sites much better now as bad. Beautiful area and will be staying again. WIFI WAS GOOD.
Aug 26, 2023
The cabin we were in was too close to the main road with no privacy what so ever. We also miss the old Wilmington KOA which was much better than this one. Not sure if we will be back again, my family and I have been coming up for 40yrs staying at the KOA in Wilmington. Just Sad and disappointing.
Aug 26, 2023
Everything was great. Very clean, Staff was friendly, good size sites. Wish there was a pool.
Aug 25, 2023
Deluxe cabin ,Counter glass top 2 burner stove inop half of time. Kept turning off. Took 1 1/2 hours to boil water. Let office know. No one came to look at it. No cable TV. Just news stations or old reruns. No pool or mini golf like Fox Farm Rd had. Disappointed, more money' less to offer.

We had expected to be at the old KOA down the road and hadn't realized it was sold and moved to the current location. On the up side, the restrooms were in good repair, and VERY CLEAN!!! The site was level, clean, large and wooded. Staff seemed to be cordial. Rec room was clean and all equipment worked. BUT the roads in this KOA need the pot holes filled. The quiet hours also need to be enforced.

Thank you for staying with us and for your kind words about our staff and cleanliness. We are in a never-ending struggle with the potholes. Some days we are winning, some days the rain is winning. We apologize for that. Future improvements are in the plans. Thanks again for your patience with us!

No pool, small playground, I was visiting Grandkids stayed before but a lot has changed.
Aug 25, 2023
The site #99 was excellent -- lots of room, clean, great location. The biggest deficit was the road in and out. The potholes shook my Class A all over. I also did not like the push button showers (noted by others in comments).

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us. Both the restrooms and the roads are at the top of our list of future improvements. Thank you for your patience while we work toward getting better and better.

4 stars only b/c I miss the old location. The staff at the new location at 5591 NYS Rt 86 are amazing. I knew that we weren't staying at the Fox Farm Rd location,Wilmington, & myself and my family had adjusted our expectations accordingly. I knew that the game room was minimal, the footprint of the campground was also much smaller than the Fox Farm...but this is still a beautiful spot/

Our stay was wonderful! Bathroom availability wasn't great. Other than that, everything was great!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us! We have high hopes for bathroom additions and upgrades in the near future. Thank you again. We hope you can come again soon.

Clean, quiet, affordable, good proximity
Aug 24, 2023
We were at CC56; since none of the staff did anything about the dog barking two cabins away from us, we complained to a staff member about that dog barking NON STOP all day long inside the cabin while the owners were away; disturbed everyone around; extremely annoying; seems nothing was done. A couple toilets should be added....needless to say, right? Very nice staff. Thank you.
Aug 23, 2023
Nice, large campsite. The new location is, unfortunately, a tad undersupplied in the bathroom/sower house category. Very nice staff, but I wish there were a bit of a security presence at night. Look forward to seeing how they develop it as time goes on.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your patience with us. We have big plans to improve!
Aug 23, 2023
expensive for what we got. my campsite was too close to the road and was on a slope. not my best camping nights! but the washrooms were clean and services good

Very clean bathrooms and nice facilities. We always saw someone cleaning the bathrooms, which is great. We are typically not tent campers, so will probably rent a cabin next time. THose looked nice from the outside, but didn't get a chance to see inside. The location is perfect if you're hiking some high peaks. We took the trail straight from the campground to hike Whiteface/ Esther.

Thank you for staying with us. We are so glad that you found our location perfect and our restrooms clean. Our wonderful staff works very hard at this and loves to hear that you appreciate them. Thanks again!

We miss the old KOA in Wilmington. This one had push button showers (not fun) and no pool which was a step down from the old KOA. It was quiet and restrooms were clean which we appreciated.
Aug 22, 2023
The campsite and the staff were extremely professional friendly and polite. Campsites were beautifully maintained. There are two things you may want to consider changing. 1. On the brochure it listed beach access, it wasn't explained that the beach access was not on property it's actually across the street it could be a little far if you don't have a car. 2. The shower heads only drizzle out wa

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your suggestions, and for choosing us for your camping trip. An entire remodel/upgrade on our bathhouses is on our wish list for the near future. We will look into the wording about beach access. Thank you again. We hope you come back soon!

Wish for the amount we paid that there was sewer at the site which was 2 sites away. Because we were in site 69, we had to do some backtracking to get in the right orientation to dump at the only sewer dump point. Other than that, it was an ok campground.
Aug 21, 2023
This is nothing like the last location I thought I was going to be staying at very disappointing. Shame on you for the bait and switch.
Aug 21, 2023
Staff were awesome, super kind, respectful and helpful!

Thank you! We love our staff, and we will let them know that you appreciate them as well. We hope you can come back soon.

We miss the old campground, but the facilities of this KOA were superior. We hope that the one room cabins with bathrooms are added. The deluxe cabins are beautiful, but expensive. The activities were good. The one room cabin was nice. We appreciated the refund for the night we did not use, because we had to depart early due to illness. See you next year!

Very nice

Loved our site and the text when an activity was planned. My only complaint were the bathrooms. Very clean, but the bathroom and showers were in two different areas. No sinks in the shower building. Water was not hot enough for me and the shower heads were too high. We had site 37 very nice I would not have liked to stay in the other section of the camp grounds

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us. We have bathroom upgrades on our wish list for the near future. We recognize that one water temperature will never work for everyone and have plans to correct that. Thanks for your feedback. Have a great day!

My family was truly disappointed in our accommodations. Although we had booked what is described as a 2 room cabin on your website, we arrived to find it was only 1 room. The front desk staff did attempt to upgrade us but nothing was available. I believe your website misrepresents the true layout of the smallest cabins. It clearly states they are 2 rooms when there is in fact only 1.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are very sorry for the confusion. I have reviewed our website and can't find anything that says two-room associated with a one-room. Would you possibly be able to email me what you were looking at online so we can head off future confusion? Thanks so much for staying with us. Have a great summer.
Aug 20, 2023
We were not aware of the change of location until we received our confirmation email. Glad to see it is a work in progress. The cabin CC51 that we were to be in had a broken bed. We were accommodated in an upgrade. Showers need upgrading. Staff very helpful, friendly. Quiet, Clean. Will be wonderful once all work is complete. Will return again once work is done.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us and for your patience with our progress. We can't wait to announce our exciting upgrades and future plans. In the meantime, your kind words are extremely appreciated.

A pool would be great

A pool is definitely on our wish list! Stay tuned for exciting upgrades to come. Thanks for staying with us.

We've stayed at the Lake Placid KOA twice before and that's why I booked to stay here for this year's visit. Honestly, I was disappointed to find out that location was closed and we were at a new location with far less amenities. The new site has tremendous possibilities but it is far from the KOA I thought we would be staying at and paid for.
Aug 18, 2023
The showers have no temperature control and the water stays on for maybe 30 seconds at a time, so you constantly have to keep pushing the button and the water is too hot!!

Clean,spacious and quiet tent areas to camp!! Will definitely be back again this fall!!

Thank you so much for your kind words. We can't wait to see you in the fall!

Fire pit at our cabin needed to have the ring lift so there is an under draft to help fire. Cabin was clean. Bathrooms and showers were clean also. Showers could use a bench in the stall to put your clothes on.

Staff were great (especially Mikey) clean facilities and great access to all the Olympic venues

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you! Mikey is our favorite too. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay.

Très bel endroit, propre. Certains items laissaient à désirer par contre (jeux de couilles, un foyer sans propane, les vélos à louer défectueux et dangeureux)
Aug 15, 2023
Beautiful campground and gorgeous trails to hike. Location was perfect for area attractions. Only complaint was the showers. I disliked the push button and was unable to adjust the water temperature, it was scalding. All staff were very pleasant and helpful! Very nice place to stay overall.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your wonderful comments about our staff and location. We recognize that one water temperature will never work for everyone and have plans to correct that issue as soon as possible. Thanks again! Have a great summer.

Staff was friendly, helpful and attentive. Only criticism was the firewood was damp and some of the wood was rotting.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us and for the kind comments about our staff. We are lucky to have them! We will look into that firewood issue. Thanks again.
Aug 15, 2023
The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. They helped us in planning our site seeing in and around the Lake Placid area. The site was good. Our only complaint were the road condition in and around to the sites. They are gravel and in dire need of repair for the potholes and roughness. Was very difficult maneuvering our 40ft Class A RV to the site.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your wonderful comments about our staff. We are so lucky to have them. We apologize for the road conditions. We have been battling unprecedented amounts of rain this year. As soon as we get the roads up to par, it pours on us and we have to start again. We aren't giving up though!
Aug 14, 2023
Costs are rising, pools promised, if not in by our stay next August, will probably look for other location. Other wise outstanding customer service....amenities need to be brought up to oar with costs...
Aug 14, 2023
There was a lot of garbage at my site when I arrived, took me about 20 minutes to clean everything up prior to being able to set up my tent. Other than that it was an okay stay!

We enjoyed our stay and location of our DC81. Lots of outdoor space around us. Cottage and bedding were very clean. However, some mold and mildew is forming on bathroom wall and ceiling due to no fan or outside ventilation. More hooks for clothing would be nice. We plan to stay again and bring family. Thank you.
Aug 12, 2023
Fantastic pull through sites with full hookup. Nice and spacious. Position of fire pit too close to road. Need more amenities for kids. Pool especially. Phenomenal hiking all around.
Aug 11, 2023
Great facility. Really clean and well kept. Our little cabin had a fridge and even a tv which we didn't actually need. The mattresses were comfy, the room was very clean. Will be back.
Aug 11, 2023
First and foremost, if you are staying in a trailer site along Fox Lane (sites 93-97), you will smell venting sewer pipes constantly during your stay. it's offensive enough that we mentioned it to the staff multiple time during our stay. Sam & the staff were fantastic and very helpful. Lacks usual KOA amenities: playground is rundown, no pool, game room is outdated, camp road is very narrow/bumpy
