I can not say enough about this campsite. We stayed for 5 days. Our campsite was beautiful. We had 2 dogs with us and we used the dog pen that was at our site. The place was so clean and my grandkids had such a great time playing with everything they had. I would reccomend this campsite for anyone who wants to have a terrific time. I wish I could give it more stars. Beautiful and clean!!!!

An absolutely fantastic KOA. Everything about this place is fantastic. My greeting by Sabrina in the office made me feel right at home. The assistance finding and parking at my site was very much appreciated. The grounds are super clean and manicured. My site had a patio, rocking chairs, fire pit, gas grill and a round picnic table. Everything was clean and orderly.

Stayed in cabin 122. This was the ideal place to set up for a week. The internet worked great which was important since I work remote. The campground is incredible clean and there’s lots to do. The staff was great from check in to departure. If you’re looking for a campground in and around the Hershey area…this is the one! Also, check out Whisk. A local coffee shop just down the street from the park!

I’ve been told this KOA is so good it would be unfair to judge other KOAs against it. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. The amenities are all well kept and lovely. The pool is clean and comfortable. The store had everything we needed. Our cabin is a gem. I couldn’t be happier. It is better far better than the description or the pictures made it seem. Our 8 year old daughter is so happy with her bed, and so enamored with the adorable pigs in the art in our cabin. We had a nice easy trip to Hershey this evening and now we’re sitting here in the peaceful night air, roasting marshmallows by the fire. If other KOAs are 75 percent as wonderful as this, I’ll be thrilled that we’ve become members.

We enjoyed our stay at this location. We were able to travel to Gettysburg (about an hour) and Hershey world (about 25 min) and the site we had was very level and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The Facilites were very modern and very clean. We actually were able to easily shower at the shower house and the grounds were well kept and beautifully decorated with plants. The dog area was nice. The laundry was also decent and priced decent compared to some Other koa spots. Job well done! And I enjoyed coffee with sunrise - easily seen from my campsite.

WOW - what a great place!! We were there for chocolate extravaganza weekend. It was great. Lots of activities for kids. The staff is absolutely awesome. The grounds are well kept. The RV sites are nicely spaced. We did some fishing and caught a couple bluegills. There are some nice sized bass and catfish in there, but no luck with them (use hot dogs for bait). We will definitely be going back.
