I guess when you have a convenient location you can charge crazy high rates for a mediocre at best campground. Sites are extremely close together. Feels more like a parking lot then a campground.

Feels more like a parking lot then a campground. Sites are gravel and unlevel. Right next to the highway so constant road noise which also ruins the experience. Might as well be at a free truck stop. Low end site ( 30 amp electric/water no sewer) was $70 and prices went up from there. For those prices I would expect much nicer amenities and full hook ups. Complete disappointment. Go elsewhere.
Poor communication led to total frustration...

This is our second stay here. We won't be back. The campgrounds are fine and there is a nice little nature trail that winds along the creek. However, it is very close to two highways and not at all quiet.

The campgrounds are fine and there is a nice little nature trail that winds along the creek. However, it is very close to two highways and not at all quiet. That's still fine in my book as the location is perfect for us, half way between where my 90-year-old father lives and the hospital where I have been treated for cancer. But, and this is a big but, the staff here do not have their act together at all. Here's the details of our little odyssey: while checking out during our first stay, we booked a second stay and were told "Sites in the winter are first come, first served. When you pull in, take ANY available site." We subsequently received an email saying to stop at the Night-Check In and there would be a list of available sites. So, some conflicting information there, but no problem. Upon arrival, we checked the Night Check-In Station for the list. No list; so, I picked a site, per the original instructions I got. The staff here watched me pull into the site, set up, and then came over to tell me I could not stay there b/c they were shutting off the water. So much for ANY open site. This guy, at least, was specific about which sites I could use, however. More on that in a minute.I was discouraged. But, OK, I tore down and moved to one of the sites they said I could use. I pulled in and got set up. The second site had a bad sewer hook-up. We stayed there one night using our holding tanks and decided to move again the following day, selecting a site that guy said was going to remain open. Remember they guy who waited until I was set up before making me move? The office is closed; so, we called to tell them we had moved. Guess what? We were told we could not stay there. BTW, there was still no list at the Check-In Station. Also, twice we were informed the laundry room was to be used "by reservation only." So, we called for a reservation. Nope. We are not allowed to use the laundry room. Hey, I get the COVID-19 restriction, but get your story straight. People make plans based on the information you provide. Bottom line: these people have not idea what's going on in their own campground or how to communicate clearly or how to follow through on the (sketchy) information they provide. Terrible management. Terrible. Only recommend staying here if absolutely necessary or if you are way more tolerant of utter incompetence than I am.
Decent location/harsh staff

Also a pretty reasonable off-season rate. The staff that we encountered was very abrupt in our only encounter with them. There were no more than 10 occupied sites (out of about 100) during our stay so we didn’t think twice about briefly parking in a neighboring site while unloading materials to make a repair to our TT. We are always very considerate and would have moved immediately had another guest arrived for that site. After just a few minutes, a woman approached and was very coarse with us telling us to move our truck - NOW - unless we wanted to pay for the extra site. Pretty sharp tone in my opinion. We would have extended our stay had we not had this encounter. Absence of customer service had been mentioned in reviews on other websites but we figured we could manage for a week. Couldn’t wait for our week to end so we could move to another CG. Then we stayed in the area for another week. No doubt that the lack of customer service cost this business some revenue during a lean time of the year.
Decent KOA at a big price

(Note our GPS routed us to an entrance off a highway ramp that does not exist anymore. Follow the KOA road signs.) Most expensive KOA we have ever visited. And, for that money, we were originally assigned a small non-level site in the woods. Thanks to the staff, we were able to move into a larger site in the open, and the upcharge was waived. FHU. Plenty of OTA (over the air) TV. WIFI was excellent.
Nice Campground – Great for everyone.

Getting in and out of the park was relatively easy. The staff was very friendly and had plenty of local knowledge of what to do and where to go. The park itself is in a nice neighborhood which made it very nice for daily walks. They do offer shuttles to area attractions but we found it much easier to just use our truck. Sites along Pennsylvania Ave are satellite friendly. Overall this is one of the nicer KOA’s we have stayed at.
Very helpful and friendly staff

The staff were professional, friendly and very helpful. While the sites were a bit close together, the facilities themselves were in good repair and clean. Excellent staff with helpful and friendly manners more than make up for the lack of space between sites. Will definitely stay again.
