Kansas City West / Lawrence KOA Holiday

Welcome to the Kansas City West / Lawrence KOA!

We are open at the Kansas City West/Lawrence KOA for all types of camping and we are continuing to follow county and state-issued Covid-19 guidelines.  These guidelines state all vaccinated guests are not required to wear a mask indoors or outdoors. 

This KOA combines Midwest charm with big-city accessibility.  Just an easy hop off I-70, the campground offers Pull-Thru RV sites with full hookups, Premium Tent sites and Deluxe Cabins.  It's close to the University of Kansas with its busy calendar of Jayhawk sports and other events. Check out the shopping and restaurants in downtown Lawrence, or visit historic Fort Leavenworth.  Twenty miles away, the Kansas City metro area has much to offer, including Kansas Speedway, Legends Outlets, baseball and a national soccer league.  Stop by the on-site cafe for Hunt Brothers Pizza and Wings.  In-season fun includes a mini zip line, gem mining, two playgrounds and a swimming pool.  Rail enthusiasts will appreciate the rumbles and whistles of the passing trains (about a mile away).

Current office hours are 8 am - 8 pm daily. We hope to see you soon!

We are KOA members and stay at them all the time. We love them all. This is the only campground that you cannot park WITH your camper. We arrived this evening. It’s raining, I had to park my vehicle far away. Then a staff member rudely told my husband he needed to move his truck as well because a part of his tire was on their not well kept grass.

This is a great KOA. We arrived with a dead battery on our tow vehicle which we tried charging ourselves and we were not successful. The gentleman with the longer blonde hair was so helpful and brought a lithium battery charger that started our Jeep right up. Sites were nice and level super friendly staff we’re also professional. They even experienced a Water Main break on our row and tried everything possible to make sure that we had at least 3/4 tank of fresh since we were going to the track to watch NASCAR. We will definitely be back.

As we were destined for Lawrence, this was a good location. However, the train and nearby concert venue noise were irritating. The sites are too short and way to close to each other, and the roads too narrow. Looks like a good place for families -- many amenities. It is NOT necessary to list every single campground rule during check-in. Point out the highlights, and refer to the brochure handed out. P.S. - Though this park refers to itself as Kansas City West, it is actually 39 miles away from KC.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We found this KOA in Lawrence, Kansas, on our way home from Colorado and booked it last minute for an overnight stay. I wish we could have stayed longer! The campground is absolutely beautiful—very clean, well-maintained, with lush green grass everywhere. The store had everything we needed, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, even though we arrived right before closing. Restrooms were spotless, and the sunrise in the morning was stunning. Highly recommend this campground to anyone—don’t hesitate to book your stay. We’ll definitely be coming back!

This looks like a great KOA for families. I have a wife and four kids. Was gonna be a fantastic five days for the kids and I. I would still recommend taking your family here. Very Clean! I would never do an after hours check in. Experience was horrible. What could have been easily resolved, ended with the Sheriff showing up because they said I threw merchandise at the employee behind counter. After further review this was found to be false and I was on my way. They still took my payment and are not refunding it.
