Overcrowded - small campsites - expensive activities Beautiful landscape - close to adventures - friendly staff

I would give this zero stars if possible. Amenities that should have been open were not (water slide, hot tub, etc), which was the only reason we stayed there. So many golf carts speeding around, driving insanely. So crowded, absolutely awful.

Big! There was something for everyone. (on a personal note...we were having trouble with our RV fuses...and within minutes, a KOA employee was at our site, helping to solve the problem. Thank you, Irv!)

Great location and beautiful campground. Was a little disappointed when my son’s phone was stolen from the basketball court and the staff really didn’t seem to care. We searched and searched and asked repeatedly. It was showing as in the fun zone on tracking but they claimed not to have it. WiFi is terrible throughout the campground so that really didn’t help the situation.

Was my 1st time at this KOA. LOVED it. Will be making this a yearly trip on Labor Day weekend!!!

The only complaint I have is super low water pressure at the camp sites at certain times ( I'm sure when a lot of people are showering in their campers). Other than that super friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful grounds ( love all the flowers) and activities for younger kids. Perhaps adding some activities for older kids ( high school) such as a zip line, etc. Overall great stay!

My son's favorite place to camp.

The hot tub was filthy. On the last day they were open for the season, they drained the hot tub and refilled it, so it couldn’t be used. Big disappointment. Eggs at breakfast were awful. Also, workers leaning over the credit card machine to watch what you tip is poor practice .

Beautiful resort with an amazing view! It had everything we needed to keep our family entertained/ was quiet enough to get some relaxing family time in! Every staff member we came in contact with was very nice and the facilities were very well maintained!

I would have rated this higher but when I went to use the hot tubs at the lower pool, they were both green and nasty looking. One was closed but the other should have been too, needed cleaned. Have a 38ft rig w toad, they gave me a site hardly big enough + a tree interfered w my slide. They moved me to the next. They should have given me one of the better bigger sites. Plenty of them were open.

Very disappointed in our stay. I had made my reservations 10 months in advance and specifically asked to not be next to a playground. We were placed directly next to the children’s activity area. It was chaos. Unsupervised children and even KOA employees ignoring the fact these children were driving golfcarts and motor scooters at excess speed. Our site was too small to accommodate our tow vehic

We were only there for one night but found the resort beautiful. It has everything one could possibly need at a campground. This campground has been taken care of very well and a lot of thought has gone into providing a wonderful stay for all. the only reason I gave it a 4, is that it was sooooo busy....full of active ATV's which made it a bit noisy so if you are looking for quiet, this is not it.

Short stay with friends and family. Very accommodating! Great end of year sales. Great place for families.

Overall it’s a great place to stay. The camping spots are a bit crowded, but still decent. We weren’t at camp very much so it was fine. Nobody bothers anything, and this we loved! I wish the office was easier to reach with immediate access to security. We had some hellraisers in camp and I had to drive to the office because there isn’t a direct line to security. Not a problem, just inconveni

Koa as always a great place to stay and have a good time with the family when you’re camping.

It was only an overnight stay, but we had a great time and will definitely return.

The spots are very tight for bigger rv's. Our spot was close to the main so it was very noisy. The campground was full of loud side by sides that would parade around most of the day until around 10 at night. The last couple of days we were there, there was a young girl on a side by side that just rode around the loops all day. It could be a great campground if you aren't looking for quiet time.

The staff at Palmer Gulch are friendly and helpful, especially the coffee/gift shop girl, very sweet. Found lots of great “gifts” in the well-appointed gift shop! The meatloaf special was really yummy in the restaurant at the top of the stairs. You couldn’t ask for a more beautifully scenic location! Overall, a very well organized facility and handsomely attended grounds. Love all the flower

Everything was awesome, great escape. Only thing was the K9 camp (dog park) was in disrepair. Gates and fencing were broken. Disappointing as we use them quite often.

There’s a good reason we’ve been going back to Palmer Gulch KOA for years now. It’s a fantastic place, peaceful, lots of things for kids to do, and well-kept facilities. We already reserved for 2026!!

Fun place!!

We love the campground and we have been there 5 times! My parents loved it when they visited 20 years ago. Great staff and fantastic atmosphere all around. We will be back again next year.

Two complaints: it was pitch black at night and very little light to find our way which was frustrating. Also in the office they said the pizza place closed at 10, it was 8:00 and they refused to serve us :/. We were hungry and tired. But the camp is ideal for a family to enjoy the amenities with their children! Lots of fun options.

Campground was nice but food was bad and expensive.

We loved staying at this location. The park is very nice and close to so many places to go and see. My only disappointment was the small dog park. For such a large resort, I expected more.

This place has lots of activity all day long. There are motorcycles, side-by-sides, bicycles, etc. always on the small roads around the campsites. The sites are very close and rather small. Our motorhome had about 3 feet space before the road. They advertise Wi-Fi but it is really not available. If you like a lot of people, then you may like this place.

Was very nice but too crowded and packed in too close to other campers.

My wife and I just stayed at this Mount Rushmore location. First time staying here and didn't know what to expect. We where pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The campground was like staying at a 5 star resort. They have so much to offer and it's in the perfect location to visit any of the tourist locations in the area. Definitely would love to stay here again

A great family stay! We loved our cabin - clean, comfortable, and perfect with kids. So many activities, food options, and amenities that we spent a lot of time enjoying the resort. Also a great location to access so many other attractions in the area.
