This campground was 'ok'. For a summer weekend, I was surprised that a KOA had NO kids activities, or any activities that I was aware of. They did have a decent pool, which was a Godsend in the heat of summer, but other options would be nice. Bath house we used was very clean, but most of the showers had no showerheads, small thing that they could invest a little $$ in.||Site we had was small 'width wise' with a hill drop off to the next site. It was ok overall.||A lot of overnight campers pull in off the interstate to rest. There are also a lot of permanent campers, not really a getaway weekend kind of place, especially with kids.||People who work the office could be a little friendlier. I had to wait a hot minute for them to look up from their phones to greet me when checking in, but the little store was stocked just fine.||This place is really close to home for us, so I don't see a reason to make a return visit. It's good for hopping off I70 for the night though.

My response to you Raven, is that you have destroyed this campground! I have been camping here for a very long time and doing work there. My son worked there, my daughter worked there, and my wife and I volunteered. We never had a problem before "volunteering until you came around. Funny how there were activities for every single weekend this summer and now nothing. Christmas in July was a joke! It way just for and old man to have some young girls sit on his lap. We left because of you and what you & Chris were planning to do, funny how all of it has come true! Majority of your workers are gone because you fired them! Took you long enough to figure out how to respond to this! Your name isn't even Raven! You are fake and should not be at this campground "managing" while sleeping with tenants and breaking up marriages! Watch your mouth replying to me! I'll have to show this to people that shouldn't have to see this....like you did with emails to the owner.....campers did not need to see business! No activities no nothing. Store is not stocked or opened during peak hours. Staff screaming at elderly people and scaring them. Manager is firing and kicking the monthly people out and her staff and giving 24 hours to leave (illegal). This isn’t a KOA, it’s more like a trailer trash park and swinging joint. KOAs name should never be on that sign, journey or not. Don’t waste your time or money at this dump!

It was a cute little cabin that we stayed in. The previous KOA we were at had a much better mattress on the bed. It was very hard to sleep on this bed due to it feeling like we were just sleeping on the ground. AC barely kept the small cabin cool. My husband is very heat sensitive, so we specifically chose a cabin with AC so he wouldn't overheat. Restrooms are clean enough. I didn't use the shower, but my husband said the water was hot and it did the job just fine. We likely won't be back to this area at any time soon. If we are, we might stay at a different camp ground.

Campground is clean. There just isn’t much there. The pool was a little small but nice. The lake was nice for the kids to fish in.

This is a run down RV park that should not be a KOA. Some of the childrens' amenities were not working at all. People complained hair floating in the pool. The road into park on park property has huge pot holes and needs much repair. The site we were in blew our surge protector, and we had to stay in another park 10 minutes down the road to wait for parts as our shore power will not work now. Other reviews from June 2024 said the same thing about power. Staff told us there were power outages, but he was told later not to say anything. Thankfully we had a generator or we would have been stranded without power for a holiday weekend. The sites are anything but level and tires are completely off the ground to balance this. Dog park needs attention. Interior roads need new gravel as most is just fine dust/dirt now creating a complete mess during the rains. Unless a massive overhaul is completed, do not bring a large rig here. 10 years of RVing across the US, and this is probably the worst experience. We felt bad for our neighbors who had to listen to our generator.

The place was nice last year horrible this year. No bouncy pad, canoes are gone,sand box gone ,pool closes whenever they want to close it, store closes early when they feel like it. The management smoke in the pool area n drink even thou there's signs saying not to. Children 15 are supervising 10 year in the pool even thou it says adult supervision under 15. The 15 is not an adult our 17 was not permitted to watch her 6 year old sister in the pool. Rules seem to apply to only certain people. All the staff that has been there years quit or got fired. They talk about the staff that left. Definitely not friendly. You go in with a problem n are told if you have an attitude they aren't dealing with you. I was there 16 months I pulled my camper out n left a storage container I didn't have room in the camper for. I called to tell them I would be back for it only to find all my stuff thrown in the garbage. All the kids skate boards,scooter,helmets, basketball etc. Quiet time is at 10:00 but hear managers daughter n her friends talking loudly at 12:30. Pets are not allowed at other campers site unless you are the manager. They don't follow rules they make n if you break a rule you're out in 5 days no refund. The activity lady Casey who worked free quit, barely any activities now. Definitely not a good Koa should be renamed to Johns campground. Grass all high roads are terrible. Definitely running down Koa name. I've stayed at many n definitely different. I was told my camp site needed cleaned up when others have garbage, boats,toys n all kinds of junk.

Spent a weekend at this campground! I do not recommend it. They had no water at 830! Somebody wasn’t doing their job! There is a heat wave that was going on and no water… I paid a lot of money for a site and no water. Never have I ever been to such a dump like this. The road into the campground was horrendous. Staff was outside smoking and ignoring customers! Speed limit signs up saying 5 mph and nobody is doing that…including employees. Store is not stocked and very unorganized. Pool has grit at the bottom and hair floating everywhere…..definitely not clean. Bathrooms were flithy and no paper towels or toilet paper. The amount of noise coming from the far end of the campground, all night long…swearing and loudness was beyond ridiculous! This place is an absolute mess and SHOULD NEVER EVER have the luxury of being a KOA. Absolutely a poor excuse for a campground. I did call the number to call about the excessive noise and nobody answered…went straight to voicemail. Horrible!! Just don’t stop here..go further down the road and find another campground where you will get what you pay for.

We stayed 2 nights and had a really nice time. Everything was clean and well maintained. Kids had a great time fishing in the lake and the one worker even helped my son untangle his line. Some of the sites are smaller and on hills but nothing unbearable. They have a fenced in dog area with 2 separate play yards that our pup enjoyed some off leash time at. The salt water pool was wonderful. Crystal clear and refreshing with grass all around instead of all concrete! The night before we left they had music and a great bonfire. The walk up th huge hill to the office can be a bit much but you're camping in the mountains so it's not unexpected! We traveled into the city and the ride in wasn't bad. It took us about 45 minutes. We would definitely recommend Koa Madison!

Electrical pole had incorrect breaker. |Said 30 Amp, it was a 50 amp. |Took two tries for it to "turn on", thought it would fry my RV. |First KOA to not escort by golf cart to site. |Sewer pipe was broken. |Check in ladies were outside smoking upon arrival. |Very unprofessional. |Two stars given due to meeting really great guests staying one night like me. |Not returning.

My Fiancé and I just became a member of KOA. We decided to go away over Memorial Day weekend. The KOA experience was very nice. We spent the majority of our time fishing at the pond, which is awesome that you don't need a fishing license. The staff that I spoke to were very friendly. Even though some of the staff quit and only a couple are currently running the place, I think they are doing a great job. Everything was very well maintained and clean.

No longer have jumping pillow was is still listed on the site. Cancelled all activities for the weekend except a band which h my kids could have cared less about,which was Memorial Day weekend,the kick off to summer smh had a band in which a staff member wanted to sing with but couldn't do one kid activity? Store is not close enough to walk up. Staff and manager was not friendly or welcoming what so ever. Walked in to two ladies who didn't even say hello and had packs of cigarettes lighters and energy drinks sitting there. If you love the whole KOA feeling of family and friends,welcoming and friendliness,this does not cut it.

A well run campground, nice and friendly staff. The office/ store is well stocked with a large variety of camping needs , propane and 24 hr laundry is available.

We stayed at this KOA campgrounds for 3 nights in order to tour Pittsburgh. The campsite was well planned out. It sits on a hill. It has a swimming pool, playground, lake and a jumpy thing. The journey into Pittsburg was very straight forward. The campground was well kept, except the road coming in which had a few pot holes. Everything was clean and taken care of.

Great RV camping experience. Was able to experience this Campground in early - mid-march when most campgrounds are closed. The campsites are well-maintained. Clean and large laundry area. Camp store stocked with the basics. Friendly and accommodating staff. Only negative was the pothole strewn driveway - needs some major upgrade.
