    Let me start by saying something nice…this campground is in a great location, with a great layout, and has a lot of potential. Unfortunately, this is where the niceties end. It almost seems like this campground is purposely being allowed to deteriorate. It is simply not maintained; the roads are bad campsites and bathrooms are dirty, and the playground equipment is older than I am. Now problems occur, as they did for me, but it’s how they are handled that makes the difference. At most KOA’s, you call the number and someone comes to help you. In this campground’s case, this isn’t even possible. Their phone number doesn’t even give you an option to speak to a live person; it just refers you to email and their website. How this campground is allowed to call itself a KOA, let alone a KOA Holiday, escapes me completely.

    I wish i could assign negative stars. This place is a total dump. The employees should star in zombie apocalypse. They have let this park get run down yet they charge an outrageous nightly amount. Large potholes and puddles. It’s large here so its easy to get lost yet they don’t provide parking assistance. Stay away from this place.

    This place used to be much cleaner and nicer some years ago. Each year it felt that it was going down the hill. This time, we stayed Sep 9-12 and then a week later, we couldn’t believe how that dirty and anti sanitary it was. We thought that during COVID times there should be strong regulations and the owners of this campground would be help responsible. I would NOT recommend this place until it passes all the proper inspections.

    This campsite is not as bad as the reviews. It's not your typical KOA either. The pool and the playground are the original fixtures from the heyday of the Catskills era and badly need updating and the bounce pillow could use some TLC. So it is lacking in stuff for the younger kids to do if that is why you are coming. The store is very low on inventory so bring whatever you'll need, don't rely on picking up much there.
    However we enjoyed our stay. We stayed in the Boroughs section right on the river and really enjoyed relaxing there as it was mainly family's who were all respectful and quiet.
    If you are adults just looking to relax this campsite is fine, but younger kids will be disappointed with the playground area.
    There looked to be an awesome community center right on the river that I'd imagine would be amazing after covid restrictions lift, with a bit of elbow grease and investment this place could really be something.
    We did not use the bathrooms outside our camper so can't attest to them and we did not find the mini golf. They are obviously understaffed and run mainly by summer students but I found everyone friendly and helpful and during the booking process Max was wonderfully responsive and helpful via email.
    Overall lovely location but needs some solid investment to make it shine.
    P.S. Try the icecream. It was delicious!

    First of all, VERY IMPORTANT not to follow GPS directions! This should be pointed out in big letters on the campground's website - do NOT take Exit 1 off I-84E if you have an RV. That will lead you to a low bridge that will take off the top of your rig. Follow the instructions on the campground's website and take Exit 4! Now, secondly, if you have a big rig as we do, prepare for a very steep, winding road first up and then down the mountain to get to the campground. This can be pretty hair-raising if another vehicle comes along in the opposite direction. We only stayed one night so I can't comment on the amenities at the campground. It was quiet and all the hookups worked. But we won't take our 36-foot Class A there again!

    Great staff! As a frequent KOA camper, this one of the best stays we’ve had over the years. We arrive very late and Ryan encountered us driving thru campground and showed us where we were going. He made sure we comfortable in the Yurt. We’ve never stayed in Yurt or this campground beforeand it was a hoot! (A lot of fun). Ryan even helped us get towels and other supplies we needed.

    Very clean and quietthanks again for a very nice place and staff.

    With the exception of the booking by phone this place was outstanding huge camp sites and very accommodating. Lots of activities to keep the kids busy. Booking was only difficult because I had a hard time hearing then on the phone but once there they where absolutely the most pleasant people I have met in a long time. Will definitely be going back.

    What a mistake!!!!!! Call before arriving .said i would like a site this was easy to get on and need wifi. no problem they said. when I arrived they put me on a site that was very hard to back into. Across the road was a group of 14 or people in tents that had ever in of ground covered with vehicles right up to the road making it very difficult to back my 19" trailer in between a large oak tree and the electric supply. Came in on Friday and assumed the many empty easy park sites were already taken. big surprise Saturday morning there were 30 or more sites they could have put me on that would have been park and much quieter. My Iphone that works most places had 0 signal. went to the office because there was no info on check in papers. Yes we have FREE wifi they said. but forgot to ever mention that they kick you off every half hr and make you log back in. WHAT A PAIN IN A. Great place for small children. but nothing much for adults. Plus nothing much to see in the area . I almost forgot there are 2 way to get in 1 off of 209. there other a god awful dark twisting turning road with guard rails that is very steep in places. DON'T GO THAT WAY!!!!
    WELL THAT AS MUCH AS i'M GOING TO SAY. YOU SHOULD GET THE PICTURE BY NOW.

    Had a great overnight stay, thank you! The park is absolutely beautiful and expansive with options for every kind of camping. Wide open green fields for groups, and private tree-shaded sites by the river. Incredible selection of recreational activities for all ages, indoor and outdoor, from horseshoes, volleyball, jumping pillow, playgrounds, inflatable water slides, bike rentals and more. Rustic cabins and deluxe cottages for glamping. Nestled in the mountains and close to lots of fishing. We'll be back to explore the area. Highly recommended!

    Stayed here last weekend 7/14 – 7/16. If an overpriced camp site with loud rap music blasting all day and night, kids partying on the next camp site until 4:30 in the morning ten feet from you so your family can’t sleep. Empty beer cans and bottles on the trails in the morning, unsupervised kids throwing rocks in the river by you where you are trying to relax, a camp store with no real food and wet wood for sale. If you enjoy all of these things this is the place for you

    My family has been been camping at KOA for a long time, we have stayed from very expensive to modest ones and this is the first time that we have had to pick up and leave. The campground is in terrible shape, staff is not friendly or welcoming at all, bathrooms are disgusting ( truck stop bathrooms are in better shape) information on activities and proximity to NYC on website is absolutely miss leading, we paid for a water and electric site and there was no water, when we complained they connected a hose to another site to give us water causing an inconvenience to the other campers, upon registration we never received a map or information, we had to go back an inquire about WiFi password, we ended up checking out less than 4 hrs after checking in and spending money on a hotel reservation in queens NYC after driving for 4 days from MN yo get there. Do yourself a favor and use your money somewhere else, it's a shame they call themselves a KOA. Big shoutout to grand island KOA in Niagara Falls they know how to do a job well done!

    We were all very excited to have somewhere to rest after our 9hr drive and when we arrived we walked into a dusty cabin with a ripped screen and filthy dirt covered floors. We just said oh well and kept going unpacking for the weekend, I went to put the sheets on the beds and there were spiderwebs,bugs,and holes in the wood near the ceilings and there were strange black spots on all of the beds. The air conditioner was plugged into the wall and set on the floor not even near the window and we couldn't even move it because it was extremely hot. The man eating ants attacked us all in our sleep (it's been 3 days since the first bite and I'm still itching to high heavens)so watch out for those inside and out! The bathrooms near our cabins were absolutely disgusting! Full of dead bugs, moths, gigantic spiders which looked at me like I was the next meal, flooded floors, mold in the showers, and no soap to wash my hands. There was no light outside of our cabin so it was inside with the ants or outside with all the bugs attacking you because they see your phone light. The lazy river intertube path was smelly and stagnant, the "water slides" were deflated, the pool deck was gross, nobody was around to do any of the activities advertised on the website. The entire place is filled with potholes so be careful driving in. If you would like to stay in a dirty place with fire hazards, man eating ants, bugs everywhere, and hardly any lights this is the place to be. Absolutely the worst KOA I have ever been to, my family loves to use KOA' s to travel so it was very disappointing to see how run down this place was. When we said something the only reply we got was "it hasn't been cleaned since winter" and in my opinion one star isn't even suitable for this place.

    We went there from New York city, take route 17 to that place which avoids ghat/curvy roads. There were different cabin options available based on the price. It's highly recommended place for summer because there were many outdoor activities like hiking, biking etc. Our cabin is close to never sink river which makes it a beautiful place. There is a winery which is about 10 miles from there. It would have been a great experience if we went there in summer and if there is a good wifi. This camp ground closed for the season

    This year there was a power outage during the July 4th weekend, so camp offered a refund to those who wanted to leave; we took the refund, but money was refunded to wrong credit card. Good luck trying to find someone who was able to fix the issue! still haven't got money back. Poor customer service.

    Noisy Rough RV sites
    Reserved for one night while driving thru the area. Site is out of level by 6 inches from one side to the other. Soft muddy soil where you park. Pedestal is kinda beat up. Unknown types of wires that are cut sticking out the ground. There was a loose board near the pedestal that I stepped on and one of my legs went into a hole that is about 18 inches deep. For a KOA I would think that it would be maintained a bit better.

    Want to go camping, but not lose touch with the civilized world? This is the place to go. They have outdoor outlets, wi-fi, an area with a bathroom and shower. A rec center, a swimming pool. Fun times.

    Too tight - big rigs will definitely have problems. Not well maintained.
    The had a group of kids camping and they went on until 3am.
    The campground refunded our money and I still won't be back.
    No one ever addressed the problems or apologized - just emailed a credit. At least they knew there was a problem.
    The place has so much potential
