DON'T BRING A E-BIKE. My family & I visited the campsite at the end of September. The campsite was nice and quiet. We stayed in the rustic cabins. They were fine for 4 kids & 2 adults. I'll say we didn't see any bugs inside. The stay was only a few nights & kids had a nice time. Workers kept up on cleaning & garbage. Bathrooms had separate rooms for privacy. Our fire pit was super muddy after a rain so we went next door to my brothers pit was better on the north end. Maybe put down some gravel. I give a 3 star because there is room for improvement. Now on to the final issue. They need to add absolutely no E- bikes to the website! unless I missed it. We're not big campers so I brought my sons only bike. It's a $400 amazon Class 2 E-bike with pedal assist. The bike has 3 settings low,med,high & can be turned off completely for pedal only. I had it on low but we know boys will be boys. I won't bring that again. Sitting at the fire when my son rolls up with the owner Jim chasing him down yelling at him. I thought something bad happened he goes on to scould me like a child. It was very awkward & my son was a bit nervous. The owner did apologize afterwards. I'll take the blame since I brought the E bike. Just add this to the website or check in to save someone else the hassle. Thats why I'm leaving this review to give someone else a heads up. DON'T BRING A E-BIKE. Would like to come back next summer and try again. Maybe we'll have a better experience & will review if so.

Nice place. Bounce pillow for kids, inflatables in pond, small water slide, activities for kids. Dog park, movie screen, putt putt, bike/cart rentals, ice cream, pizza (some seasonal). Lots of fish to be caught. Full hookups available, clean bathrooms. Owner Jimmy is really nice, as is Ed. Friendly place. One car per site, extra parking for fee.

This is a small grounds. Buy packs a lot of amenities. If you have kids, this place is excellent. The facilities are clean, the staff is polite and professional. Check in was quick and getting to our site was even quicker. I will return again.

Very friendly koa with many activities. Sites are close together but they at least make people use the overflow parking so you can still pass through the campground. Only down side is that there is one pump out and it blocks the incoming gate. And then to leave you need to back up to get through the out gate. Then need to move the gate back to the stop sign or invest in a better pump out.

Avoid this KOA at all costs – bed bugs and dishonest management. Our stay at the Emmett KOA was a nightmare. The cabin we rented was infested with bed bugs. When we brought it up, the owner flat-out lied and told us they hadn’t had bed bugs in “over 13 years.” That was absolutely false. There are multiple reviews on here already citing bed bug issues, and staff members themselves admitted to us that it has been an ongoing problem. Even the pest control company they claimed to use confirmed they’ve been battling bed bugs here. Instead of taking responsibility, management hid behind their ridiculous 14-day cancellation policy and refused to refund our second night (which we didn’t stay for obvious reasons). Their “solution” was insulting: a 20% discount for a future stay (as if anyone would want to come back!) and a handful of quarters so we could attempt to kill the bugs in our belongings using their dryer. The dishonesty from Toni and her father is appalling. Any business that knowingly lies to its customers about a health and cleanliness issue this serious has no integrity. Bed bugs are not a minor inconvenience – they spread, they infest, and they follow you home. We left disgusted and disappointed, and I strongly recommend avoiding this campground if you value your health, honesty, or basic respect as a paying customer.

Stayed at the rustic tent sites R4 and R5. No water or electric. Easy to work with if you bring solar panels to charge phones and bottled water to drink/clean. Spacious, shaded sites with trees for hammocks. The water/electric sites right on the lake were very small. Everyone who visited us said we had the best area in the campground. The lake was so warm and comfy. Sand bottom with an occasional weed. Really cool inflatables throughout for kids and adults to play on. Catch and release fishing. Caught a big bass! Store is well stocked with things you may need. Employees escort you to the site, drop off ice and firewood, and pick up trash. All you have to do text them. They had a full weekend of activities and even fireworks right on the beach. Loved our trip so much and look forward to coming back!

We have been staying at this KOA for 3 years now. We are always pleased with the cabins. The campground is a good size when you have children or you just want everything in easy walking distance. Large enough to go for walks but not huge. The grounds are well maintained and there is just the right amount of things to do. The lake is always fun. The service in the office is always great! They even prepared a surprise gift from my husband to me for when I arrived, thanks Katie! Went above and beyond.

Loved the Halloween event. What a great place. Can't wait until we can bring our babygrands when they are older. The picture is of the day after and everyone has gone home.

We went on a Halloween weekend and saw alot of great decorations. The grounds are very clean and the employees are very helpful. The only problem was our site had of sitting water on it from a storm a day earlier. Besides that we really enjoyed it!

Clean grounds. Loved the pizza. The grass needs a little help. Nice gravel. It's nice not to be charged for every little thing. The store needs restocked. Are biggest complaint is there was no pool. Not everyone likes to swim in ponds. The staff was amazing!!
