The condition of the RV I rented was not what I expected. It was ran down, soft, weak floors and very small. The campground is basically bare, it does have some amenities but I wasn't at all pleased with this place. Just seems, looks and feels like a trailer park for either pp, that live there or for contractors living there while working out of town. Didn't really seem, look or feel like a campground. A person in ,you party had never been to a KOA and she said based on the condition of this one, she will probably never visit a KOA again. I have been to several nicer places, just regular campgrounds are nicer than this " KOA Holiday " I do not recommend

Beautiful location next to Sacred Ground that adds a sense of Peace to the Place. Birds sing a little sweeter there & the Customer Service is just as Sweet! From Check In to Kicking Rocks, Enjoyed Every Moment. Happy Trails

We stayed for a few days based off information we saw on KOA app. Pretty misleading on app to the actual amenities and campground itself. App stated pool was open until Oct 11 & we got in Sept 15 & pool was closed and empty already. Playground was pretty small and not much to it. They did have a bike run for kids to ride bikes but all the ones provided were broken. Luckily we brought our kids bikes so they could ride around. There was supposed to be a mini golf set up but there wasn't one there. Then right beside "playground" they were letting RVs park & stay at a non hook up site. Just weird to have someone staying right by playground and bike run in a field. We booked at this campsite mainly for our kids to have fun & were pretty disappointed. The camp sites themselves on upper half were clean but super close together with absolutely no privacy. Campsites on lower half did not look welcoming or clean. Edit: not sure how we missed a whole mini golf set up unless it was down on lower half of campground where we weren't staying. About RVs being parked next to playground I wasn't speaking about ones being stored back at end of lot with wooden stage. There is a dried dirt patch of ground literally right behind playground where RV was parked, slides out and people sitting outside camping. Then directly behind the store (on left hand side of playground) were 2 more RVs parked, slides out and people staying.

Patty the manager is outstanding, as is her assistant.We had a couple issues with our motor home and Patty was more than helpful getting me the right person i needed to get some help. The campground she runs is also outstanding. Kid and pet friendly, plenty for the kids to do. Miniature golf, a huge playground and a very nice and clean pool . My grandkids loved it there. We do a lot of camping and KOA is in our top 10 places to go to.

Great staff, wonderful location and super clean pool. Lots of fun family activities, truly a very nice place. For sure we will stay here again if we find ourselves in this neck of the woods. Attended Kid Rock festival Boyd County fairgrounds…. Super close, beautiful here 👍 We had Camper, but they had cute cottages to stay here as well 😊⛺️
