We loved our stay! The beach, the private fishing lake, everything was amazing. I really wish you guys had a shuttle option to get to the Lost Island parks though.

We love this campground. This was our second time staying here and they have everything a family could want in a campground. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was the bathrooms where a little rough this time. I’m sure it’s because they where full and not fully staffed so don’t let this scare you because everything else was on point. We will be back for sure.

The sites weren't completely level and the WIFi was horrible. But the park is nicely kept and loved the beach and swimming area.

Our family booked a cabin at Waterloo KOA because of the close proximity to the water park. Unfortunately, we found the cabins on this KOA property are not maintained properly and dirty.

Great family get together that we do yearly.Only disappointments were that the back in patio price is much higher, and the same as the drive thru patio price, and our yard light on the patio didn't work.We also rented another site and a cabin, but can only use our KOA discount on one site,which I feel isn't right--you are paying for nights no matter what.Cabins strict 3 chKin,but clean for 2hrs.

We really enjoy this campground. We choose it every year for our family reunion. We like that we can all stay whether we are staying in camper, tent, need a cabin, or just stopping by for the day. The only thing I would change is we would like to have two keys for each cabin. That would be helpful.

The Waterloo KOA is a great place to camp! We were expecting small sites and basically just a place to park our camper. We were quite surprised! The staff at the KOA store were friendly and very helpful. The manager, Amy went out of her way to make our trip the BEST! An added perk, having gas and diesel pumps at the park entrance; cheaper than in town too! We highly recommend this park!

Beautiful park and we'll laid out. The large and small dog run areas were large but the latch on the small dog side didn't completely latch. The lake was nice and would like to come back to go out on it.

We were traveling from AL to MN and stopped here for one night. The campground is easy to get to, onsite gas station, parks for kids and pets. All pads are gravel and relatively level. Lake onsite to fish and swim. Also has a walking trail around the lake. Was nice for us and our dog to stretch and relax after driving. Great site if you are staying a while or just passing through.

Workers were super friendly and helpful. Campground was accommodating to late checkins. Discount to waterpark was helpful. Waterpark was a BLAST for adults and kids. Would easily spend 2 full days at park.

Great location. Nice store. Improvements could be made to the beach area and cement pads for camper.

nicely laid out. big, level pull thru's. very open - sometimes, too many trees lead to a cluttered campground. not the case here.

The shower area needs updated. I used the handicap stall by site 109 and the connections to the hand held shower were leaking and spraying all over and the shower wand itself was cracked and spraying everywhere

We love the Waterloo KOA! We've stayed before & always find it nice! Bathrooms are well taken care of. Beach is beautiful & has been taken care of since our first stay. Spots are nice & not to close to neighbors. The kids love the park & movie night was a nice bonus. It was too windy for the bounce houses but we understand. The staff at check in was welcoming & helpful!

What a delightful KOA! We only spent 3 nights, but the staff was friendly, the grounds were very well maintained, and it was very easy to navigate. We loved our site which was more than long enough for our 45' MH and truck. There are kayak, paddle boat and other rentals for the lake as well as a disc golf course on the campground. The location is great: close to shopping and restaurants.

This KOA is very nice and the dog park is the best! We were sad we only stayed one night. We will definitely be back.

The area/land is beautiful but you can tell they don’t keep up with it like they should. There’s lots of places with overgrown grass and an insane amount of geese poop. They have a cute little beach area but the sand hurts when you walk on it. The cabin we had was very clean but the beds we’re awful. We ended up leaving early because we just couldn’t stand to sleep on the bed another night

Up keep was just ok. Dog droppings in campsite when arrived. Grass in site was over 6" tall. On a plus side fire ring was cleaned out and ready for use. Gravel parking area was clean and nice.

Stayed at RV site towards the front. Nice level site. Site by hill aren't leveled/cut down. Slant down with hill. Saw gas or diesel pumps on site.

Very well maintained and attractive facility. Close to attractions, entertainment, groceries, and the highway. Over all pretty quiet, some occasional road noise. Sites are level and relatively spacious. Staff were very friendly and helpful, but not bothersome. Price is a bit higher than other areas nearby. Overall I was very happy with my stay and would stay there again.
