Great campground! They had plenty to do for kids and families. Definitely enjoyed the Halloween vibe and festivities. The goat zoo was really cute! Well maintained sites, customer service was good, and they have a nice store.

Such a nice KOA for family fun. So much for the kids to do for Halloween! Seasonal campers were so nice and had their lots decorated so festive and fun. Love the pizza + ice cream at the store. Dog barking was excessive and constant. We bring our mastiffs so trust me we are pet friendly! Staff was nice enough. Not overly helpful or present around the campground like all the others we’ve been to. Not enough dog waste stations like other KOAs. People drive really fast + don’t abide by 5mph.

We've been camping here for the past 15+ years coinciding with the Bloomsburg Fair in late September. Our kids always found plenty to do to keep them busy and now that they're all grown, we enjoy just hanging at the camp ground enjoying doing nothing! Our group usually rents cabins and I car/tent nearby. The cabins are clean and well maintained and provide almost everything you need.

Great staff nice little store. Large sites kept very clean clean bathrooms and lots of fun things to keep the kids entertained. We have stayed here the last few years during the little league world series and will definitely continue to do that.

I love that I could reserve one night here. Other places wouldn't let me do just one night - so frustrating! The tent site was perfect and everything I needed. The petting zoo was an added bonus. I wished I stayed longer to enjoy the goats. I do wish KOA in general had more tent sites with basic amenities since that is what I need.
