5 stars all around!! The best KOA we've ever stayed at. Large park, sites are a good size and pull thru. 50amps were full but we pigtailed our rig and used a 30amp which was fine for the one night we stayed. Park is clean, bathrooms are very nice. Lucy has the best customer service! It is next to a railroad and airport so there were noises throughout the night -not an issue for us but keep in mind if you want absolute peace and quiet. Other than the trians coming through it's a quiet park. Dog walk was nice along the fence. Several casinos in the area. Store in the office is nicely stocked. 👌 love this koa!!

Friendly, loyal staff!! Lucy rocks!! Easy on/off freeway access. Walking distance to restaurants & casinos. Clean sites. Pool (in season), playground, basketball, horseshoes, picnic tables, dog park ... What's not to love!

The staff member who checked us in was friendly and had a superb personality for the job. The community spaces we used; convenience store, laundry, bathrooms were all nice and spotless. The campground has very few trees, the camp is all dirt and gravel. These aspects are a huge disappointment. We stayed at another Nevada RV park last night and it was all paved with some areas of grass and more trees. The reason we are giving only 2 stars is because there are a few ridiculous add-on fees that make zero sense. They charge $5 per dog even tho they are on leash at all times and you are required to clean up after them. While I do not take issue with the leash and clean up rules, I question why the pet charge? The handout/ campground map you receive at check in states guests may have visitors from 7am to 10pm, but there is a fee charged per person! Again, why? We needed a safe place with water and electric at minimum because it was 94 degrees and we needed air. This was our only option in the area.

The 2 ladies at the front desk were awesome! Very friendly, helpful, and explained everything perfectly. Clean bathrooms and showers, nice pool area, and little store has the basics to make a long day easier. Close shopping and restaurants. Easy off interstate access (a huge plus). If you're looking for grass covered spots and lush trees...go to Yosemite. If you're looking for a reasonable priced place to stay that is nice and quiet....here ya go!

Very nice KOA. Clean sites with grass in most areas. Didn't feel like sardines packed in. There is a full-time area in the back. The bathhouse is very clean and all are very big. Also has a pool. Our first time here for an overnight stay. Not too far from the highway, so you will hear a bit of road noise but not bad. Very nice staff, they will guide you to your site too. Will come here again.

We spent one night here on June 1, 2025. There was no wifi, pool was closed for cleaning, the rec room was locked up tight but we were still charged with these non existent amenities. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Pass this KOA up. Not worth the horrid experience. We left after the first night and did not mind losing the money. Management did not care about the issues and did not provide the check out info. Tent areas are not shaded, as they describe on their website. Our site did not have a fire ring, as described. Pool was not open, as described. Other campers were loud until 1:00 a.m. And then there were the loud trains. Never again.

The most basic KOA I’ve ever been to. Friendly service, the essential spots. Don’t expect all sites to have full service, so be mindful when booking. Don’t expect WiFi at all, so modern campers beware. Don’t expect much of the general store, though it has a few nice souvenirs.

This was a great KOA! We were able to get a tent spot last minute when driving thru. Older KOA like many are except this one has been meticulously maintained and is very clean. Bathrooms were spotless. As was our tent site. The woman working the front desk was very nice and helpful. And they have a great little spot in the office/store where we could warm up leftovers, have dinner and do a little work on our computers. Definitely would recommend this campground to anyone needing a place to stay!
