Clean, well kept campgrounds. A pool and amazing playground for kids. We were just passing through but we're very impressed with the location, the pizza, ice cream, and gift shop. The staff was so nice and accommodating. Definitely a 5 star place.

We had a good time at the Adel KOA. The kids enjoyed the activities and the jumping pillow! We stayed in KL01, and the beds were terrible. The queen bed sank into the middle, and a squeak amplified every move. The twin bunk mattresses were very thin in the middle where the kids attempted to sleep. Before booking, please ask if the mattresses have been replaced. No one slept well. That said, the cabin had everything we needed for the weekend. It was clean and fresh when we arrived. We'll be back again but we'll bring our own beds after this experience!

Had a wonderful stay at Des Moines West KOA. The park features numerous activities for children, including a large bounce pad, a playground area, a small, but nice pool and a gameroom. Laundry room was clean, with 4 washers and dryers. Shower facilities were pretty much the usual. They were always kept clean. There are 2 large family shower rooms that were very nice. The staff here was very nice and helpful. As a bonus, you could order pizza and it was delivered to your campsite. I would definitely recommend and would surely stay again if I were in the area.

Sorry for the long review. So much to say about this great KOA. Just a couple of miles north of the interstate. The drive through the farmlands was so relaxing. Easy to find. We stayed here overnight. So quiet out here. To the person who complained they got yelled at for not stopping at the entrance because they didn't see the stop signs, you obviously don't have a lot of camping experience and you must be blind. Many campgrounds have you stop at the entrance so you can check in, not to mention that this KOA has two HUGE stop signs. You can't miss them. The staff was friendly when we checked in. We ordered our pizza and a kid led us to our site. By the time we got settled in, that same kid delivered our pizza. Great timing. I tipped him $5. Wish I had given him more money. Anything to support the youth when they work hard. And the pizza was actually pretty good. Sites are spacious enough. Definitely not on top of each other. For the person who complained about the bird poop on the picnic table, I'm pretty sure the campground can't control the birds. Birds will do their own thing. Also to the person who complained about not being able to walk around the campground because of all the gravel, where the heck have you been camping? At the Hilton??? Went outside and watched the fireflies. That's a treat for us because where we live, we don't have fireflies. Brought back a lot of fun childhood memories. Birds were having a chirping party. It was sweet to hear them. So many activities here. I can easily see lots of families having a grand time here. We would absolutely stay here again. Easy in and out. Finally, please, PLEASE...if you are in a vehicle needing to throw trash in the dumpsters at the exit, please park in front of the dumpsters. Some woman decided to park at the exit and took her time throwing trash away which held us up and another RV from leaving. I just don't know what she was thinking.

This campground is immaculate! Both the grounds and the facilities are spotless. The staff is friendly and helpful as well. The pool is crystal clear but can be a bit crowded at times. There are a myriad of activities for the kids to keep busy. The sites are easy to maneuver in and out. They have a pancake breakfast on Saturday mornings that is delicious as well as economical ($8 for two HUGE pancakes with sausage or bacon). We camped in a 32’ travel trailer with two grandchildren (ages 8 & 6) and we all loved it! Highly recommend this campground for families.
