I didn’t realize it wasn’t Halloween weekend when I went on Columbus Day weekend. The themed weekend was changed without me knowing. �

Everyone was friendly and answered questions right away. The campground is clean and lots of stuff to do great place for young and older children

Very nice campground. Lot's of things to do at the campground. Site's were pretty large and had chairs, picnic tables, benches, and a fire pit. Staff was very helpful and courteous. All kinds of shopping and stores nearby. Stayed an extra night to go fishing at the pond they have there. Would definitely stay there again. Clean and large site's. Would definitely stayed longer if possible.

We love coming to KOA in Strafford. There are a few things that need attention. Cleaning the cabins needs to be paid more attention to. The oven was not clean. Cobwebs inside. Supply more than 1 trash bag for both bathroom and kitchen. Water pressure for showers are not good. Hoping these get addressed because we look forward to coming back next year

Very nice accommodations. Loved the glamping tent. My only suggestion is to put a handrail up the steps to the porch of the tent. It would help when unloading & loading. And older people

We are traveling across the country and generally we stay at KOA’s. The girl at the desk was in a big hurry and not very personable! Just doing her job! She charged us 50.00 for our dog, which ended up being a mistake and this place has a 9,99 amenity fee per night! They would not reverse that! I have been asking other KOA’s about that fee and they said they don’t have it! Rip off! Disappoin

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Hi Martha! Our industry standard amenities fee is displayed on our website, and on your confirmation at time of booking. We're sorry to hear you missed this. Our pet fee is a flat $50 per pet per stay, which is also listed on our website. This is also a very standard industry fee.

We have stayed here for 3 years in a row now for the same holiday weekend. This has to have been our worse experience. The refrigerator was full of flies, the coffee pot was not clean, and there was a layer of dust on the ceiling fans.

Our cabin was very nice, new & clean. Spacious enough for the two of us (would be tight for 5 or 6). The one thing lacking was storage space - even a few wall hooks to hang jackets or shirts would be a welcome improvement. As for the campground itself, the staff was excellent - bummed that we couldn't swim as the pool heater was on the fritz. It's a great location for day trips around the area.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Robert- Thank you for your constructive feedback regarding storage space and wall hooks! We appreciate the shout-out to our awesome staff. Our water activities were closed due to the extreme cold and 60mph winds but will be up and running next season, as safety and weather permits.

My family has been coming to Strafford KOA for many years for their final weekend and the Halloween festivities. We were truly disappointed that not only were the Halloween festivities moved to a different weekend, but the pool and water rentals were closed the entire time. It was a bit frustrating to pay resort/activity fees when there was not much to offer in that case.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Nicole- We're sorry you were disappointed. We hosted Halloween Weekends prior to our annual 'Farewell Weekend'. Our themed weekends can be found here during our open months: https://koa.com/campgrounds/strafford/recreation/ Our water activities were closed during the 60mph winds and reopened after.

One of the best and well run KOA or even facilities I’ve even been too. Great for kids adults and everyone in between. It’s honestly that something for everybody.

Thank you so much, Richard! The team works hard to ensure our guests enjoy their time with us and we're so happy to hear we delivered on our goal! We can't wait to see you again.

We were extremely pleased with the grounds, which are well maintained. Restrooms immaculate. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Lots to do activities wise. Big sites. Spectacular really. We will be back. Rubbish barrels were abundant, we have dogs so it’s helpful to be able to dispose properly. Store had a great assortment of items. Overall we were extremely pleased.

Staff was very friendly. Restroom was clean and up to date. But only one restroom for the whole campground. Major hike to get to it. This campground caters to families. So it is full of kids, very noisy kids. There appears to be no quiet time in this park. Girls screamed until 12:30 am and some jerk played a horror movie on his outside TV with lots of screaming in it until 2:30 am.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Sometimes with so many camping trips, our guests confuse our property with another. Strafford KOA has four beautiful, fully stocked, double-sided bathhouses located throughout our property and two more in our awesome arcade! We take our quiet hours very seriously here and do not allow noise past 10p

Excellent campground, clean and quiet. Will stay again

We were a last minute reservation. Our camper is a 41ft 5th wheel with a slider hitch. Our campsite was a back-in with a tree in the middle of the entrance. We are full time campers and consider ourselves pretty good at getting into tight spaces. It was challenging to say the least. We called the office to see if there were other options. Unfortunately we were put on hold for 10 minutes!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Arie- We appreciate your perspective. Site 145 does have trees, however the entrance to 145 does not. We are happy to provide site escorts to ensure our guests utilize the correct path to our sites! We appreciate your patience with our busy front desk agents as they assist all of our valued guests.

First time at this KOA & really enjoyed our stay. Back in site with full hook ups, not a huge site, but plenty of room for the two of us. Grounds were well kept. Staff cpurteous & helpful. Activities for the kids. Pool clean & inviting, but a bit cold by October. Enjoyed area attractions: hiking, Lake Winnepasaukee, breweries, & restaurants. Will definately return.

Great little campground, located not far from Rochester, but was pretty quiet. Will definitely be back. We stayed in one of the patio sites, which had a table, with chairs and a swing.

Bathrooms dirty. Otherwise our site was pleasant, our checkin smooth with helpful staff. Other campers respectful of quiet times. Better monitoring of bathrooms would have improved our experience

We were hesitant about staying here after reading some of the reviews, but we ended up booking anyways. We are SO glad we did! The staff were so friendly and accommodating. We went with another family, booked sites 9 & 11. We were surprised how spacious they were. The events that you guys hosted this past weekend were great! We WILL be back!!

Another great stay! Love this KOA site. Just a one thing that I’d like to see in 2025 - basketball court being painted and possibly another set of hoops to accommodate more people playing.

Beautiful wooded spacious campsites. Very large campground. Bath house Is not well kept. Dirty and would not use it. Quiet. Stayed in the back left on a deluxe patio site which was very nice but someone had spilled blood on the slabs and my dog was going crazy over it. Needs to be bleached. Dirt roads and rest of campsites.

Excellent communications, but staff selected site in empty campground that was way to small. Had to move to another site and was up charged another $30 for a one night stay. Sewer hookup was over 36 feet away and blocked by a tree and hillside. Roadway in was a tight drive on public roads. Campground needs tree trimming.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Hi Kenneth! Thank you for your feedback. Our team does not select the campsites our guests check into, our computer does based on the parameters our guests enter. We did have options that were the same site type you originally booked, but were happy to upgrade you to a pull through at your request.

The camp ground was very clean. There were fees for just about anything. A resort fee and car fee more specifically. At any other KOA I have stayed in I have never paid extra for two cars and I definitely had never pay a resort fee on top of lodging. $9.00 a bundle of wood is a bit expensive especially considering you cannot bring your own fire wood in. I would stay at a KOA but maybe not this one

Hi Alexander- We appreciate your feedback and shout-out to our cleanliness! Our standard fees and policies can be found on our website here: https://koa.com/campgrounds/strafford/general-information/ Thank you!

We have gone to this KOA 2-3 times a year since 2020. As a family of 6, it's hard to find accommodations at many campgrounds, but we really like the cabins here. The campground is small enough that all 4 of our kids can ride their bikes and go exploring without being too far from us. Their favorite things are finding frogs and salamanders, fishing and kayaking in the pond. We can't wait to return next summer!
