Since it costs twice as much as anywhere else, I thought it would have better showers. The showers are gross and extremely outdated.

10/10 satisfied with this campground. We stayed the weekend of the International fireworks competition with our 2 young kids. They loved every second of the stay. From the pool, park, putt putt golf, crafts with painting rocks and gem mining. We look forward to stay again next year!

Everyone was just so nice and helpful. They always had a smiling face and a great attitude. I loved being there. I would definitely come back again! It was my husband's first experience and I haven't been to one in a while. We both loved it �

Clean campground, friendly staff. Would stay again. The only downside, our "neighbor" was up all night fighting and cursing. When you're tent camping, quite neighbors are extremely nice to have. Not the campground fault. No, we did report it.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We do have an after hours line for this very reason. If it ever happens on another stay, please feel free to call. We want everyone to have a pleasant and safe stay.

Staff was friendly and very attentive. Everyone seemed like they enjoyed their job! Whole campground was beautifully landscaped with tons of flowers. It was a great stay. Wouldn’t change a thing.

As always with a KOA, first class people, accommodations, and a beautiful park! They went above and beyond to make you feel welcomed and comfortable.

Too expensive.

Too many rules, only one bathroom house with showers, men’s bathroom only has three stalls and one urinal! Can’t walk around with my beer, tent sites are all dirt!

We were just traveling through for the night, but the campground was very nice, quiet, & clean. And the staff was friendly and helpful.

Cabin was not very clean, heavy cobwebs above cupboards and behind tv, bathroom shelves and table were very dirty. Bed mattress was terrible: was like a waterbed. Staff was very friendly and campground was clean.

We tent camped and had a great spot. Great location to explore all of Michigan. Only complaint is we wish there was another bathroom facility in the back of the park.

Everything was so clean, there were tons of things for families and kids to do and the staff was beyond friendly and timely. The wood and ice drop off and trash pick-up was luxurious! I do wish the tent sites had privacy foliage in between campsites. It felt exposed and was easy to hear even whispered conversations by your neighbors.

fee for fdirewood was rediculous. 10 for a small bundle of wet wood, they insisted on delivering it.

We LOVED the KOA at Traverse City - the amenities were wonderful and clean! We really appreciated the trash pickup service and the option for delivery of ice, firewood, or even pizza! The only thing we would’ve changed was the location as we wished it was closer to the actual Traverse City & Sleeping Bear Dunes (the places we came to visit), but it wasn’t a terribly far drive from either!

Chill. Enjoyed the rain. Read a whole book to last chapter on sunny day after the rain.. lovelove

We had such a great time with our neighborhood group. My biggest recommendation would be to add an additional bathroom at the back of the campground. The other thing that would be next level would be a splash pad for littles. Otherwise we loved our campsite (tent A) and all the activities especially the train ride, foam party, pool, crafts, etc. Thanks for a great weekend!

Friendly staff! Pool was a bit too dirty and cold for the kids. Everything shuts down when the office closes at 8pm, even though it’s still daylight which was a disadvantage.

We enjoyed most things about the Traverse City KOA. The staff were all very friendly, the pool was well maintained, the bathrooms were clean, and the kids had a blast driving their remote control cars on the RC track. However, the road noise from M37 was loud and constant so it really detracted from the camping experience.

We had a wonderful stay. It was disappointing that they charged my parents $20 just to visit our campsite. Especially when most attractions are closed for the season, charging $20 for them to drive in, sit at our campsite for an hour and then leave is ridiculous. I understand day passes, or using the pool and many other activities, but nearly everything was closed for the season, why still charge?

Great secluded campsite, very quiet at night, close to some good restaurants and downtown Traverse city without being to close, AMAZING hot shower and the staff was oh so friendly and knowledgeable about where to find Petoskey syinrs and other sightseeing adventures ... I'll definitely return ���ϋ��

We stay at KOA for the amenities. Yes, it's more pricey than some parks but we like that we know what to expect from KOA. We stayed in one of the new pull through full hook up sites, it was spacious but not shady. They planted new trees so some shade will come. The pool is nice. They only have one shower house, I think they plan to add another but it's not built yet. The showers were clean and the laundry was convenient. The pool was fantastic. We enjoyed the free mini golf. Definitely go eat at Patty Cakes!
