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.

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.

Had my first solo camping trip at Marion/Shawnee KOA and it was wonderful. Micah went above and beyond when I ran out of gas—kind, helpful, and never made me feel silly. Kids loved the water park, though the lifeguard could’ve been more attentive. Loved our tent site but wish there was more shade and better airflow in the fire pit. We’ll be back in the fall!

We live approximately 10 miles from this campground and lake. The cabins are phenomenal and we take our rv. The camp sites are great. The atmosphere is friendly, inviting and clean. The food is great along with the drinks. Can’t beat it.

Great place to stay!

Enjoyed the staff and the environment and the amenities the only thing that would have been nice is if the tent sites had the canopies that the rv sites had the tent sites have zero shade.

Shade is nonexistent in the campground. The sites are clean and appear well maintained. The area called a beach really isn’t. The small sand area is really not conducive for family swimming due to size, Aquatic Plant Growth, and overall lack of maintenance. There is a water park consisting of a good amount of slides and other inflatable water obstacles but the cost is surprisingly pretty expensi

The couple that run the campground are extremely helpful and will do anything for you. We will be back just because of them!

We loved everyone there. They have so many amenities that make it fun and relaxing. They go above and beyond to make sure everyone is happy. We will be back.

We had a great time at the KOA. Trailer parking was easy for our towed vehicle, staff was friendly, site was very well maintained. The inflatables were a huge hit with our family. The process was seamless to get on them, and they were very well maintained as well.

Staff very welcoming and pizza and ice cream very good

The kids and I stayed in one of the cabins. Very clean and nice! The Water park was amazing & Big worm at the boat rentals is awesome and we had a blast on the pontoon boat all day. (Get the floating lily pad!) The staff in all departments were amazing, and genuinely good people. Micah and his family who work / own the place are great! he helped us beyond my expectations the entire time! -DeArmans

Could have used a bit of shade but the young man and woman attendants made up for that with their helpfulness. One recommendation would be to have more trash receptacles spread throughout the campground. There was only one I could locate and it was hidden behind a fence and not marked.

Great campground with spectacular views. Owner is very friendly and helpful.

Great hidden gem. I would definitely stay at this campground again. Truly a wonderful experience!

Vacationed with our grandkids and had a blast! Cabins were nice and clean. Didn’t know the up stairs had such low ceilings��but the kids did not mind. Staff were fantastic and the food available was amazing! Rented skidoos and boat from camp partner and had a little snag but the owner made up for it. Best customer service ever.

I had a tent site. I think there was a bit of mold in the pad but I can't be sure..I'm not an expert but it looked like a fungus. I think next time I would get a cabin since the views were better and they were farther into the park. I think the tent sites were a bit too isolated but I did like the little cooking station and firepit.

friendly, helpful, engaging staff tent pads very comfortable w/ nice tables, electricity, shelf for cooking, firepit, one side of the the wall higher than the rest provided some shade at the table didn't use any of the facilities, but certainly lots there: store, burger bar, ice cream, sandwiches, a huge water slide/fortress (seriously, the think would not fit in our front/backyards combined)

The staff was extremely helpful, and understanding with our late arrival time.

From check in to leaving was a pleasant experience. First time camper here and I'm 54. Don't know why I hadn't done it earlier. Our 10 year old was laughing and playing the entire time with very little screen time. Only wish there was a larger grass area as he wanted to play wiffle ball with friends and couldn't find a decent spot. Love the proximity to the water attractions and discount.

We had a fantastic stay, Our grandchildren had such a WONDERFUL time, we decided to stay a couple more days!

We stayed overnight at the KOA while we were on a road trip. The KOA is in a beautiful setting and the tent sites are very nice. We appreciated the cooking station the site had and the tent pad as well. The bathrooms were clean and nice. It was a great experience.

This was such a great experience. Our kids absolutely loved their stay and can’t wait to go back! Thanks to Micah and staff for making us feel at home! You all are doing it right! And special shout out to the boys in the burger shack! Keep working hard! You all will do great things.

Marion/Shawnee KOA was excellent. Clean sites, clean bathrooms, super friendly staff. Loved having the marina right there. Pizza was tasty and drinks were yummy. Had a great time and would definitely recommend.

Beautiful KOA, best we have seen. Great owner checking us in and making sure we have what we need. WE will be back!

Best campground we've been to! Every little detail from the friendliest staff/owners to best shakes this chunky girl has ever had, and super pet-friendly. The RV spots were perfect, comfort stations clean and comfortable, views fantastic! It's not too far to Little Garden of the Gods and Little Grand Canyon in the Shawnee National Forest. We'll DEFINITELY be back!
