Our mission is to provide memorable experiences!

Heather and Matt Montgomery co-manage Strafford KOA. They've been married for 12 years and have four children. The Montgomery's have always enjoyed camping with family and friends, but they're relatively new to working in the camping world. It wasn't until 2017 when they began working at Strafford's sister property, Salmon Falls KOA, that the Montgomery's became camping pros. Both Heather and Matt love camping and couldn't imagine a better way to raise their children than around a campground.
