Our 5-star rating isn't a gift, it was earned. I managed 5 campgrounds, and 8 day use areas for several years. The facilities at the Renfro Valley KOA were very clean as were the campsites. Staff were top notch, friendly and helpful. Campground is family oriented with plenty of activities. We look forward to our next stay.

Staff is all amazing! The gift shop has a little of everything you will need and more! They have a well maintained walking trail, lots of activities in the playground area, very large dog run in the back field and laundry available. (Bounce pad is no longer usable / Cornhole bags missing) The laundry is very reasonably priced! Great place for anyone to spend a few nights or even a extended stay. The only cons are the rates are significantly higher than other campgrounds in the area. Some things are in need of repairs that seems to have been needed for a while.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this KOA. Park and restrooms very clean. Great wifi. Management and staff very helpful and friendly, like family. Living in Northern Indiana, staying 6 nights at this KY "home" was very comfortable, weather was perfect and also enjoyed the local, restaurants, museums, battlefields and flea markets. Will keep this KOA in mind for future stay.

Not sure how this place has any bad reviews! This is one of the best camping trips I've ever had. And definitely in my top 5 favorite places to stay. Usually I start off with the negatives, but to tell you the truth, I really don't have anything negative to say, but there are some things that do need to be updated. I'm talking about small things. The balls by the play area (soccer pool) and one of the trails (fallen down tree). Other than that, I can't seem to find anything else negative. Staff was ever friendly, and someone in a review said, ".....trash was everywhere...." We didn't see hardly any trash. There are cats; I met four of them, but they didn't attack me. They did hiss to let me know they were scared of me, but all they wanted was food. I will definitely be back in the future! 🏕️💯🤩 P.S. Went to visit my family out in the woods, but they weren't home. (Couldn't find them.) 😆

Old campground that needs updates. Sites very unlevel. Low water pressure. The laundry room looked nice we didn’t use. The pool was nice. The kids in our group enjoyed the playground even with jump pad busted. Two families were side beside sharing a pedestal. When we got there surge protector stated that there was something wrong with electric. Someone came to look at it and stated “we don’t usually rent these spots they don’t work right”. He said it was fixed and their surge protector was not working properly. Lasted overnight and next day they were getting shocked again. Someone else came and fixed it ( no problem with their surge protector) wiring was old and was replaced. We payed for a concrete patio with 50 amp service. We were given a site with a pet pen (we didn’t pay for) because they said it was the only 50 amp available. The patio was nice very large with several chairs and patio set, large fire pit, but site so unlevel and narrow we had a hard time putting our steps down (it was a tripping hazard). Getting level was a nightmare!!!

The KOA is showing it's age, pull through sites need pad upgrading. The entrance and exit roads have a very steep grade but are in excellent condition. Water and electrical connections in good order. Sewer connections can be problematic, do to their location, positioning and the height for some some RVs. This is a problem at many campgrounds, not a negative of Renfro as you can't accommodate every make of RV. We would stay here again.

This park is fine for overnight stays. The ground is mostly gravel with much of the paved areas needing replacement. It's lacking the paving, patios, and fencing of the fancier KOA parks. We just need a clean safe place to park overnight and this fit our needs. We paid $60 for 1 night and that was a good value.

Ya no, won't be back. We travel with a 43' triple axel 5th wheel, which if anybody knows is very slow to turn. The site and surrounding sites we were on are all 90 degree turns, skinny, short and tight. Very unlevel sites, some with 30A......which is what we were put on even after booking online a Large pull thru 50/30/20A. Fail! We had to move after getting leveled out and realizing this. Seriously?!? There were only 3 other RVs in the park, not a difficult process. Very old looking and feeling park and not big rig friendly.

The experience at this KOA was not what we typically expect, prompting my initial inclination to rate it zero stars. However, if I were to evaluate it purely based on a non-KOA standard, two stars might feel more fitting. To start with the positives, the location was easy to find, and we checked in on Thanksgiving. Our information packet was conveniently taped to a board with my name, providing clear instructions for reaching our site. I noticed that there seemed to be plenty of things to do if we had arrived for peak season, which is promising. Unfortunately, our disappointment stemmed primarily from the site itself. We were assigned to site 4, for which we had paid a premium for a pull-through with a patio. Instead, we found ourselves at a narrow, paved site that made leveling our Class A motorhome a significant challenge, requiring us to lift a tire which is never reccommended. I suspect that while a trailer or fifth wheel might have fared better, it would still require some blocks for proper leveling. We eventually managed to get reasonably level, but we had to position ourselves closer to the back of the lot. This presented a problem since both the power pole and the sewer line were located much further toward the front. Additionally, it felt a bit odd that our neighbor was facing directly at us. We definitly did not have a patio. I should note that I opted not to complain or request a different site, so I cannot speak to whether the other options available might have been any better. Finally, I would advise anyone considering a stay here to be prepared for a steep, winding road when it comes time to leave, which is not entirely unexpected given the hilly terrain of the area. We initially intended to make another stop at this campground on our return trip. However, we've decided that we will not be returning in the future. I took the necessary steps to cancel our reservation and willingly paid the cancellation fee..

Our family has camped at this wonderful campground for many many years during the month of October. We started with the rv sites and as we have aged we have moved to the wonderful cabins. The memories are priceless! Our grandchildren love all the fun activities and the playground. The staff was great as always and Tina is a jewel! I don’t understand why there hasn’t been adequate updates/upkeep done to the cabins (electric plugs loose for 2 years now) The gas grill was a safety hazard to say the least. Our little people were very disappointed to see the bouncy pillow was damaged and in very disarray 😢. The store was scarcely stocked for several things. For the price it costs you would expect more. For the first time we were somewhat disappointed with a few things. Again the STAFF and TINA are rockstars! I hope to see improvements next time.

Arrived up a very steep drive. Speeds bumps 3 of them just awful. WOW. Booked 3 nights with Patio. Pulled into site 31 and not a patio site. About broke my ankle with such a drop off out our door. We had to build up our step to get in. First thing they said was city had a water main break and boil our water so we went to store and bought 3 gallons of water jugs. A view pulled in next to us and we got talking late and they were talking about the water and said they should of given us a discount. I said they charged us 85.00 a night for 3 night each night and they said they charged them 65.00. Really. The next morning my husband went down and inquired with the lady why we paid that amount and she said that was the rate for a patio site and he said we didn't get a patio site. She said too late to complain. You have to come with in a hour of checking in and they would of adjusted but not the next day!! The water pressure was so low you have to turn your pump on to to take a shower. Channels for local news etc. you could barely view. So very disappointing but have to say it was very quiet place. We have crossed this off a next time visit and will not go back. I can't believe they'd charge us that amount and the people next door 20.00 less. Seems she could of adjusted but will be writing this also to head quarters office. Dave & Julie

The call center got our reservations screwed up but when we got there they were very willing to accommodate us. Very nice campground and very nice people. We definitely give them 5 stars!

I don't recommend for big rigs. The entrance is a very steep narrow road with signs on both sides. That said, the staff was friendly and helpful.

This was our favorite KOA stay! 100% recommend anyone. As a single mom who frequently travels with kids, I appreciated most that it felt very safe and everything was so clean! The bathroom were very clean & well lit. The employees were super kind and helpful. We had been tent camping elsewhere on nights prior, so I had booked a 'hunting cabin' as a special end to our trip. The kids (and myself) enjoyed so much quality time playing on the jump pad, playing 'foot pool', connect 4, and walking the trails. There was a fire pit without a grate which was fine bc there was also a charcoal grill. The a/c worked great and the I loved the little porch swing.
