I liked the camp site and the bath house/restrooms. Nice to have had access to the splash pad. We visited the pool and drove our bikes around to the arcades and store. We had a nice time. First time there. I would definitely go back.

Overall campground is very big, close to Indiana beach and offers a shuttle to the park. Cons? Smells of pot the entire time. No curfew enforced. There was a large group playing though a DJ type set up with large speakers until midnight… asked the after hours line if they can have it addressed and nothing happened It kept my kids up all night. Tent campers take up all the RV sites in the front those are mostly electric only. The splash pad is on the Indiana beach campground side and was fun however a lot of the water interaction tools were broken, one of the slide was too and it could really use an upgrade but overall my kids liked it. The mini golf on the Indiana beach side was ran down, overgrown weeds. Bathroom on that side was nasty too I never got a chance to to check out the bathrooms on the KOA side but my husband said the one by the pool was good. This is definitely more of a party type campground from what I’ve seen it would have got 1 star but the staff was super friendly.

Absolutely WORST KOA we ever stayed!! NOT KOA quality!! Stay way!! We got a pull through and had tents next to us. In every campground (koa and others), there's always the rule that absolutely no tents are allowed in rv/trailer sites, but not herere (pictures of our neighbors in a pull through site). The campground has a quiet time starting at 11pm, with a fine of $100, that was a joke, the whole campground was loud all into the morning hours. The whole place was trashy, and the people were unfriendly. Not what you expect from a KOA!!

We booked a Deluxe Cabin here that was ADA-complaint. We came with family and booked 4 deluxe cabins together. We had about 8 adults and 8 kids in total. We loved having our own strip in the back of the KOA for yard games and the family gatherings. It was fun to see wildlife out our screened porch in the morning. Pros: Not too busy Great cabin layout for families Playground Pool Camp store has some conveniences Cons: -Not many amenities for a koa. The splash pad and mini golf are part of another campground. The mini golf costs extra and is not worth it - seems very run down. The neighboring camp ground has many attractions just left to rot it seems. - cabins are a step below hotel accommodations. They are “broom clean” and feel fairly dirty. - uncomfortable mattresses wrapped in many layers of plastic - have to bring your own bedding, towels, cooking utensils, plates, silverware. this adds a lot of stuff to bring and there is not laundry onsite - no beach!! Overall our stay was pleasant but I don’t think we’ll come back

The place is clean. Plenty of bathrooms, which is helpful for little kids. Downside, the playground is worn down, put put is not at this location but the next door location. The pool, which was not open, which is fine; does not look appealing; at all. The people were not friendly at check in. I was told on the phone by guy that we could come at 2p for the cabin; we got there at 2p. I was pretty surprised when I found I would be charged $20 to check in early. When asked the same guy he told me that he got the times confused. The lady, immediately jumped out of her seat and demanded that I was charged $20 and checked to ensure he charged me. Or I could leave come back at 4p but I would need to leave the campground. I was surprised. I agreed after driving 2hrs to get there. The little red cabins were great, (we had #22,) for our family of 4. Downside, nothing for our kids to do but play at the sad little playground. The beds were not too bad and space in between was okay, little tight. Again, not a lot of room for our kids to play near us, as we cooked. We had to let them play in other empty spaces. We have been to other KOA sites and there has always been plenty of activities for kids to do. Other campers were not friendly and staff was frustrated already for the season. Sadly, we will be not staying here next month (booked already,) and choose another location with activities spots for kids and space for kids. My husband was right, this good if you are going to Indiana Beach but nothing else. Camp store was didn’t have a lot of things (we have stayed off season before and had stocked stores.) Just nothing to do on site with 2 kids who are 6yrs old. Best activities around: Van Meter Buffalo Ranch. Super cool and very kid friendly. 20 min drive and cost with a buffalo burger, chips and soda with ride to see up close buffalo, $30.00 for all 4 of us.

Hope you like the music that's being played. Because you and half the campground are going to listen to it all day and night. Campground doesn't care and won't do anything about it.
