Never even saw it in the light of day. Arrived around 7p (winter) and was back out early morning. The cabin was ready and clean, and the camp kitchen / shower house was great. Nice job on that. Clean, tiled, warm. Much appreciated. Should have taken a picture. Nice job with that.

Great campground! This is an older KOA but very well kept. The staff here give amazing service, are genuinely friendly and go above and beyond to care for their customers. If it weren’t for the unpaved sites and the train tracks next to the campground I would give it 10 stars!
Sally Harland
Very neat and clean friendly and helpful hosts, however you are right next to the railroad tracks. Didn't get much sleep with trains blowing whistles and rv vibrating and whistles blaring every 30 minutes! Otherwise, a very well kept KOA. Easy to get to as well.

So this place sets in front of a railroad track and at a crossing. So the trains blow their horns every time they come through day or night. When they aren’t coming through a plane is about to land on top of us as we are very close to the airport. Now with that said this is a very well kept and clean facility. Very nice people. They do not offer military discount like most KOA’s . But do have several small fenced in area to allow the dogs to stretch there legs. And most of the spots are shaded.

Very very welcoming! The gentleman who guided me to my site was outstanding, an older man if i may say so. I said lovely place you have here, he replied “only nice now you’re here now” what a lovely compliment to get! lovely location! Pizza so good! Theres a train track beside the campsite too, kinda hidden (by bushes and trees) but if your a train lover this your place to stay! Past right by! 110% recommend!
