Convenient location and friendly service! Safe and relaxing place to stop for the night. The two ladies that checked us in were charming and full of useful information. Very clean facilities. 10/10 Would definitely stay here again!

Very cute, older KOA, hostess very helpful and friendly. It's just located in a more industrial area down near the Mississippi ports. But very well kept, clean, and quaint. Not easy to get to with lots of construction going on.

Best place in the area for families/kids. Wouldn’t stay any where else! My husband and I stay in our 5th wheel as we travel for work. This RV park is well kept, grass is maintained and showers/restrooms are clean. No rating for rooms because we are in our RV. Price in line with every other park in the area. This place offers lots of space, shade, playground for kids, and a pool. This park has met our needs nicely.

We’ve stayed at 6 KOA locations in the past 6 months, and up until now we’ve had nothing but great experiences. Unfortunately, the St. Louis N.E. / I-270 / Granite City KOA Journey was a huge disappointment, and we will not be returning. Our cabin had cobwebs 🕸️ and felt run-down, almost like it hadn’t been properly cared for in a long time. The grounds were poorly maintained—gravel, grass, and overall upkeep were lacking. The staff at the front desk were unfriendly and unwelcoming, which only made things worse. The pool was the worst part: green, dirty, and warm 🤢—definitely not the refreshing break you expect on a hot day. If you’re considering this location, I recommend skipping it altogether. Instead, try the KOA at 18475 Old US Hwy 66 in Eureka, MO (right by Six Flags St. Louis). We’ve stayed there three times and always had a fantastic experience. Sadly, this Granite City site just doesn’t measure up.

Spotted a couple just outside the entrance gate on our way in. The woman was on her knees, I assume she must have been tying the guys shoe. Very nice of her. By the way, this campground is smack center in the middle of an industrial park surrounded by beautiful chemical tankers and industrial equipment instead of nature. Truly a refreshing change of scenery from your typical campground. A train seems to run thru the town around 7am with a very loud horn which is a nice wake up call. 3 stars, would definitely go out of my way to stay again.
