We had a great time ,the people are very nice, the lake is beautiful. Nice that they have food if you do not feel like cooking. The pontoon was excellent. Our granddaughters enjoyed playing in the water. I have to say, it is not a place for bicycles. It would have been nice if they had a swimming pool. All in all a very nice place to visit.

Our cabin was right on the water and we could literally fish off of the deck. We caught lots of fish! The staff was very accommodating and friendly. We had a great time.

The owners, Micah and Jody are the best! So attentive and friendly! The whole resort is amazing, the restaurant, the waterpark, our cabin and the whole Staff! A +++. We’ve been coming for years and will definitely continue.

beach area by cabins was VERY little and not what I expected. cabins a little small but clean. No grass area around your cabin or firepit to sit around.

We booked with this location because of their promotion of family olympics and events going on that weekend--none of which ever happened. On top of that, there was very little for our younger kids to do in the water, as there is a 6 year age minimum on all of the lake fun that is promoted. Cabins were nice, but activities were not as advertised.

Each staff member we encountered was polite and friendly. The manager so kindly accommodated us with water park passes despite being a busy sold out day as it was our first trip there and we were camping on site. The bathrooms were very clean as well. We had a great experience at Marion KOA. Thanks!

Loft areas are too warm. Need larger frying pans when a unit sleeps 6. Couches need updating- our unit had a sectional but ripped. A family member had a loveseat. Scenery is very nice. Boat launch & parking for trailers is a nightmare. A storm picked up had to stay on the lake, heavy rain/lighting would have had to drop someone off at the ramp & run 1/2 mile to pick up the truck & trailer.

Great campground! Sites are great, level with concrete patios. The sky deck was awesome! We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful stay. the sites are awesome. although there is a mobile home park feel to it... We came off the boat and went to sit by the restaurant / bar area and was greeted immediately by a gentleman who stated, I'm sorry but we can not allow you to bring your own food or drink into this area. We simply left and went back to camp. So they missed out on our food order. So be it.

We absolutely loved everything about the site!!!

We could not stay attached to our trailer (garage) for our jeep as we did not have the top attached to the jeep. We had to keep our jeep offsite in a friends garage and drive his pickup back and forth to the campground. we probably wont return for this reason. the campground was awesome, clean, friendly and well kept. We spent 15,xxx to have an enclosed trailer to "garage" our jeep when travel

Everything was very nice, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The only problem we had was no shade for the camper. It was impossible for the air conditioner to keep up. But it was at 95° stay. The beach area could have used some tender, loving care and pull the moss and clean up the area. Thank you for our stay. The kids had a wonderful time.

For what it costs to stay there, the cabins are horrible. Very outdated. Small. Not enough sleeping arrangements and bathrooms for paying nearly $1,000 for 2 NIGHTS ONLY. Did not have a regular coffee pot. Had a Keurig in the kitchen but no pods. So frustrating to bring regular coffee grounds and not be able to enjoy a cup of coffee. Kitchen had tons of ants. Miserable stay.

Best campground we’ve stayed at. Staff was fantastic.

We stayed there for 5days and didn’t ever have any issues, the staff was amazing and so was the owner which you don’t see working very often but he was there everyday with his staff working. Super clean and very friendly would recommend this place to anyone

Loved the added shade at every site.

From check in to all the workers there, it was great and very nice and did all they could do to keep our stay great! The gazebo was a nice touch to the campsite as well!

Wifi was very weak, and campground was just too far off the interstate for an overnight stay. Otherwise it was a very nice campground, with great ice cream!

We have stayed many times before over the years and have been amazed at how many improvements there are each year. It's hard to improve on perfect, and yet they do!

Just got back from our week-long stay (our second year at the Marion KOA), and it just keeps getting better. The staff is awesome, the campground upgrades were spot on, and everything was clean, fun, and easy. My kids (18 and 9) had a blast, and we loved the inflatable water park. Great food, great drinks, we highly recommend it!

It was amazing. Clean cabin, great staff. Brought my grands over for the day and the lived the obstacle course and were treated so well.

Beautiful and well maintained campground, friendly staff!

The best KOA my family has been too. Everyone was extremely helpful. The kids loved the waterpark. We will be back.

Would have gave 5 but there at least needs to be a pool ( not just a slip n slide)for kids 4 and under in the heat. Bathrooms need to be cleaned and updated. Place is excellent otherwise. Sites are perfect. I will be going back.

This place is an absolute must visit. Has the biggest sites we’ve ever stayed at and level. There is a lot of stuff to do there. Swim area water obstacle course. Playgrounds, jump pads. The staff was amazing. The drive in is long, woth some narrow spots with oncoming traffic, lots of turns and there are a couple of power lines that hang pretty low, but still cleared at 13.6ft. Will visit again.

This place was the absolute best. The only negative was the sewer smell in the bathrooms. Hopefully this will be resolved. Loved everything else ...Best KOA other than that.
