Our customers are our #1 priority in order to exceed their expectations!

Roger and Barb owned a service station for 20 years. They bought the KOA in 1990. In February 1991, the campground burnt to the ground. They made use of the meeting room as the temporary office while the new building was being built. They have ran and operated the campground for 30+ years! They are now bringing the second generation, their daughter Katie and her husband Charlie, in for the next 30 years! 

"We are so grateful for the opportunity to be in such a wonderful company and corporation with a business that makes the customers feel like friends and family and not a number! Here's to another 30 years"- Roger, Barb, Katie & Charlie
