Stayed in the basic cabins (not the deluxe). Writing this review because the website wasn't very clear about what was available at the campsite. For the overall site, lots and lost of animals. Tons of mini donkeys and goats that roam freely. Mini horses, cows and pigs in gated areas. We really enjoyed this and found that unless you were eating outside and dropping food, they kept to themselves. Very nice grassy areas to sit. Small playground (swings and sandpit) with covered deck to sit. The "kamping kitchen" consisted of a stove top and sink under a covered area outside. You had to provide all utensils, cooking materials and obviously food. There was a gameroom and laundry room but we didn't enter or use these. Bathrooms and showers are cleaned once a day. They weren't the cleanest, but I've also seen worse. I'd say they were fairly middle but would definately wear shoes in the shower and not expect great cleanliness. Cabins are a- frames and very minimal. Two twin size mattresses on wooden frames that can be moved, small table attached to the wall that can't be moved, small plug in space heater and box fan. There is one electrical outlet and lightswitches for lights. Some hooks and a broom. Mattresses are not comfortable, and I would recommend bringing a sleeping pad if you have one. You need sheets or sleeping bags. It did get very muddy in our area. KOA is a nice distance from town/outside activities. It is close to an airport, but we were usually gone before anything happened with noise. Good for the price. Only interacted with staff 2 times but they were friendly and helpful.

This was a unique KOA stay with a menagerie of farm animals consisting of pot belly pigs, goats, calves, and donkeys. They kept the kids and our dog entertained. The staff was friendly and general store well stocked. The bathrooms were modern, but laundry room was in dire need of a good cleaning ceiling to floor. The grassy areas and tall shade trees were nice and the dog run run would be great if it were not overgrown with knee high grass. There is a really nice playground and fishing pond too. The sites are gravel, the roads are dirt and has full hookups. This was a nice stay and I would recommend for any size rig or tent camper.

Well kept campgrounds with clean facilities, off-leash dog park, and a special surprise - farm animals to pet. People running the place are very friendly. However, be aware: if you are at a tent site, you will be next to a fairly busy road and an airport. Each morning we were woken up by the thundering sound of a few outgoing flights. It was loud enough to get us up at 6 am. Overall a quiet airport the rest of the day. I don’t believe the people in the cabins/RVs were affected by those noises.

This place is amazing. Best TENT camping stay of our trip. Would definitely stay here again. Grounds are very well maintained. Showers are clean. Staff is friendly. Location is fantastic. One warning, it is right by the airport, so don’t be surprised when the 7:30am Delta flight takes off!

We're here now and leaving in the morning. This is a nice place. Dave's (owner) a good guy. This RV Park is well taken care of, it's quiet, and the restrooms are clean. The animal farm adds a "neat twist" to things. Dave's a busy guy and I watched him take the time one day to give the kids in the park a ride on the pony. The only set back to this RV Park is the location of the dog park, but the way this place is set up, it doesn't matter.

Hard to add anything new that others have not already said. We did noticed that there is big expansion project going on here which will add many more campsites. They need to! this place is very popular and well liked and more spaces means more people can have great KOA experience. We liked this place so much we came back a few days later for unplanned additional stay. We stayed here September 23rd 2021. We leave you some pictures of the donkeys which I not know any other KOA has.

Our stay here was lovely. Clean bathrooms and good sites. The goats and donkeys wandering around gave us a good laugh and a smile. The only con is the airport/road noise, but absolutely reasonable for the location. The dark sky and vibrant stars are incredible on a clear night!

Beautiful place to stay. We camped in a tent. Both my husband and I were very impressed with how the property is managed and the staff's excellent customer service and friendliness. The bathrooms are kept VERY CLEAN! Probably the cleanest we've ever been at. They have animals for the kids to pet. They have a large shuffle board, ladder ball, horse shoe, and tether ball. They have a nice playground area for the kids to play with an overlooking lounge area for parents to watch shaded from the sun. They also have a little shop with a very small selection of snacks and supplies in case you forgot something. Also have a nice gift shop section in the store. They sell firewood 10 pieces for $5.00. Portable fire rings for your stay can be requested and are free. Overall we loved our experience and look forward to coming back in the near future.

This is a wonderful place to stay. The staff were all very nice. The campgrounds are well maintained and the facilities are very clean as well. I definitely would suggest staying here. Oh there is a little airport near by but I only heard a few take off. It didn't bother me.
