Campground Reviews

Jun 18, 2023
Very nice camp ground. We were disappointed that being a Holiday KOA, that they didn’t offer any breakfast. We thought that the Holiday camp grounds all did. The pool and club house were nice, but far from the camp. With all the golf carts the staff had, you would think they would offer you a ride to the pool. Also seem to have a prairie dog or gofer problem, they’re everywhere watch for holes

Nice clean heated pool. Areas groomed and maintained. Campsites are set apart from others with lots of trees. The store could carry many more products seeing as Newport is half an hour away. Laundry facilities closed. Staff were friendly. There really is no little Diamond lake!

Our engineers are working with the county to find a solution to our drainfield/laundry problem that will protect the environment. So sorry it has not been resolved as of yet

I would rate it better if it had free Wi-Fi. Roger the person that checked us in was great! He was friendly and informed. I had two spots reserved but unfortunately they were not next to each other a very rude woman had 330 reserved for the season so she said. She started screaming at the children about getting too close to her spot and was worried about people stealing from her junky trailer

Thank you for letting me know. Roger is always going above and beyond. I will thank him for you.

The campground was just fine if you need a reservation and are traveling through. For us it was too big and too crowded by Friday night. Only 2 dump stations is a definite negative for a place that big. Sunday must be awful!

Very clean and very friendly. The only thing was other camper did not have their pets on leash. Which made it hard to walk your own dogs or take a walk. With out being chasing by them.

Beautiful campground. Friendly staff. Love our site with the patio. We will definitely come back.

We had just bought this motorhome and wanted to see if everything worked right. It was a pleasant stay. It wasn't the first time that we stayed here. As always it was a very good experience.

The staff was super friendly and helpful.

Beautiful and clean. Lots of mosquitoes but that can't be controlled well. Restrooms and showers were very clean too. It's our 2nd stay there and we'll be back.

Nice Campground, very good staff. Sites were either nice, big and private or small and had weird configuration, i.e. my neighbors fire ring was 4 feet from my camper, some fire rigs were placed directly under low tree limbs. Pool was very nice, hot tub looked inviting. Lots of trails around to walk dog. Bathrooms were very good and clean.

Very peaceful, a ways off the main road, nice and quiet at night. Friendly staff.

The staff was extremely helpful and flexible! We also found all of them quite friendly! Love the improvements since we were last there in July 2020!

The staff was very helpful, changed us to a better site upon check in. Thank you for your thoughtfulness!

Very quiet, very peaceful. Some of your employees could be a bit friendlier...came across as disgruntled as if we had done something to upset them. Perhaps we just caught them on a bad day. Others were very nice and kind.

Very sorry about that. I will address with the staff. Thank you

Always a great stay for us! Our group loves the activities, swimming, hiking, biking, etc. Thanks for the nice weather also. Will be back

This is a very fun place for families. We usually don’t camp in campgrounds, but some of the sites are fairly private, so it was nice. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and there are many amenities to keep kids and parents busy. We felt safe and comfortable for our entire stay.

Newport/Little Diamond is a great place to stay. We camp with our friends who have kids and this KOA always has fun activities for the kids on holidays. Besides that, there is a pond to fish or kayak on, trails to walk, pool, playground, horseshoes, pool table and other games, a little store, dump station, pretty campground, and friendly employees! We always enjoy our stay.

We only stayed overnight but the park was more spacious than most KOAs and was in a beautiful setting. Very quiet park

The campground has definitely went down hill in the past few years. It used to be a great place for families and kids, but ownership seems to be focused on maximum profits at the expense of quality. So much potential is being wasted. No more boat rentals, no more tent shelter at at the beach, hot tub broken, pool tables worn out or broken, laundry closed, broken playground equipment.

Thank you for your comments. We are in the process of building a new permanent shade structure on the beach. We are working with engineer's and the county to repair or replace our 40 year old drain field to be environmentally compliant.

Been going here for years, fun times for our children now grand kids candy hunt and other events for kids, the pool is always clean and staff work endlessly to keep campground clean. Now we heard new regional manager wants to cut cost and boost profits and said all the events for kids need to be stopped, I, my family and friends that are members will quit, and find somewhere else if this happens

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for feedback. We have regrettably lost 80+ years of experience at Little Diamond in the past 12 months. We have new staff that are eager to provide a great camping experience. We want to restore activities as we can. Nothing has been eliminated due to costs. call me if you have questns

The stay was great; however, a lot of nasty kids talking inappropriately to the little kids. I will definitely be back.

Amazing - all around great!

The pool was closed. The spa was closed. There was no hayride for the kids. Security is poor, an ATV and trailer got stolen. Things have definitely gone downhill.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I do apologies. We only shut down the pool when maintenance is required for your safety.

Love the area and serenity

Taking away the activities and boats was very disappointing � �. Also the amenities we fewer than past stays - no laundry, no honey bucket, no free wi-fi, no book exchange. I can go on and on. It is definitely not a holiday as its name sake.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Honey Wagon has been eliminated over concerns for our employees safety. We do still have dump stations available. I do apologise for the inconvenience. We have been looking for a contactor to provide Honey Bucket service to the park but have been unsuccessful so far.

Beautiful area and really nice park.
May 16, 2023
The operations staff is great, the manager quite the opposite. No laundry facilities, no recreation programs for the kids, honey bucket services have been discontinued, propane refills are going away, no recreational equipment for the lake, the shade tent on the beach is gone, seems that the new manager and his corporation are changing the camp ground away from KOA standards.
May 16, 2023
It was a quiet campground, the campsites are super big and the staff was super helpful and always there to help. I am very happy with my stay. There is tons of places to walk and lots of stuff to do. I have already recommended this koa to a few of my friends and I will definitely be going back and I am very excited. Cannot wait
May 16, 2023
Spacious sites, quiet, we enjoyed bird watching and kayaking. No burn ban so we had lovely wood fires each night.
May 15, 2023
Beautiful sites.
May 15, 2023
Always a great time and peaceful stay. Live the lake and the pool and the large rv sites

Our stay was great. People were helpful and friendly. We were a little upset the dump station wasnt available this time. There was no mention of it being closed so when we left we had to go out of our way and pay extra to dump our black and grey water.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Were sorry we didn't meet your expectations. Both of our dump stations are open and have not been closed. Were sorry that you didn't know that. Hope to see you soon

This is our fourth or fifth time to stay there. The staff is very friendly and worked with us when we had to change our schedule.

Short stay, but all seemed ok

We love going to little diamond lake KOA. We always have a great time and the park is spread out nice. And the staff is always friendly and nice. The kids love to fish, and the lake is usually good for that. But when we went last weekend, we had 8 people fishing (adults and kids) but didn't get a single bite. I would give it 5 stars but we go for the fishing and it was a real bummer last time. I'll book another trip back if they stock the lake like they used too.
