We love the Watkins Glen KOA, our family stays every year. We love the amenities and the activites for children.

Enjoyed 3 nights. Only recommendation would be to have a little shade at the pool

We enjoyed our stay with you all. The site was great! And level ! The bathhouses were clean and the showers as well. The outdoor pool was great on during the really hot weather and even though it was kinda smoky from the wildfires we had a really nice time exploring the area and Cornell. We intend to return to the area and I can definitely say that we would be staying with you again in the future.

It was a very nice campground. The amenities were nice. The staff were nice. One suggestion, when I disconnected my water hose, I found a blue piece of caulk covering the connection. I think this restricted the water pressure in my camper.

Great campground for kids. Lots for them to do. Especially love the pool. The only negative would be the dust from the campground roads. It can be pretty bad. We will be back.

great clean friendly KOA close to town and all hiking areas would go again

The only issue we found was our site was near the Activities Building and people would walk right through our camp site. Instead of walking around our camper, an extra 20 feet on the road they just walked across our mat and up the hill. I even had to remind people that it is not customary to walk through a campsite unless invited. Maybe in the list of rules that are signed for it could mention.

We paid prime prices for a spot and were treated like inmates — mostly by the off site security— but as a KOA family, I would avoid this spot at all costs. You have to fill out an insane amount of paperwork and even list your children’s names (not a norm at KOA) which is already a huge invasion of privacy.

The campground was exceptionally well-maintained, and the variety of activities available made it a perfect destination for families with children. The amenities — including rock climbing, a water slide, a pool, and golf cart rides — kept the kids thoroughly entertained throughout our stay. In fact, they were having such a great time that they had no interest in leaving the campground.

Love the premium sites in the back with the swing. The only issue with being up there is the shade is limited in the afternoon depending on which way your camper is facing. The pool is clean and big but it's far from the sites. Rent a golf cart. The stores carries a lot of essentials and food. Outside of town enough to feel remote but close enough to in and enjoy town.

So far the best KOA we’ve stayed at. Many amenities and great staff.

Great campground. Nice staff. Nice pool.

We had a great time. so many things for the kids to do. our site was clean. Early check in was appreciated. Our only issue was reception/store was not very welcoming. we told them it was r 1st trip ever no excitement no reaction. Camping is an experience and they didnt bring the experience to campers esp new campers. Registration is the 1st impression the face of ur company. Disappointing.

We took our 2 grandsons to this KOA campground for a 3 day camping trip. This facility has a lot of activities for kids, and that's what attracted us to Watkins Glen...swimming, giant slide, pond for fishing, bounce pad, playgrounds, mini golf, and craft barn...all used by our grandsons, and they loved it! Sites were clean and spacious, and the concrete patio and fire pit were great!

We had our first KOA stay and were so impressed! Everything was clean, organized, and beautifully maintained. Check-in was easy, and every team member was friendly and helpful. We especially appreciated the clean, well-stocked, and private bathhouses. Thank you for a wonderful experience—we can't wait to come back!

Our grandkids loved the indoor pool, the water slide not so much, alittle too rough for them. Staff was very friendly and professional. You need 2 more tables at the outdoor pool and definitely umbrellas over the tables. My husband and I were there several years ago and you have made some nice improvements. We would stay here again.

We had reservations for a site for the night. They tried to put us in a tiny spot and had to back out. The next site we were put in was by their measurements a 45 ft site. Our 34 ft camper was touching trees on the back and was in the drive on the front. Then the 50 amp wouldn’t work, so back to the office. They got it fixed quickly with a new breaker. All in all not worth the price.

We had a great stay!! Thank you. Staff Could not have been nicer. Or more accommodating. The grounds and the bathroom area were in excellent condition. If I had to make one negative comment it would be the truck noise from the highway. But was not a big factor.

We were disappointed because sites are so tight together,we listened to our neighbors conversation word for word,the other neighbor left his did in camper and left,the dog barked for hours.one more thing your mimi golf is so dirty can't someone blow it off.

First time at a KOA in 30 years. While I did not bring our RV, we rented a cabin. I was suprised how clean it was and the grounds around it. Rented a golf cart to check out the whole park and it is spread out. Indoor pool and hot tub were a bonus. We will definitely be back in the summer when the activities are in full swing... One more thing whoever makes the cookies that are placed in the cabin, was the best surprise
