Most recent stay was 05-24-17 thru 05-25-17 - I'm "late" in posting my review ~ We camp in a "Tear Drop” style RV only 15' long w/o toilet or shower ~ plus we like to eat outdoors using the picnic table and set up our dining canopy for sun and weather protection and thus rely on condition of campgrounds facilities and being nearby our site ~ so our critique is focused in that area

We did get close to the restroom/showers as requested; they were clean and tidy and ok - checkout my photos. Wish they had paper towels for use to clean up area around the sinks after use - very messy and no shelves or hooks nearby to hang towels or your toiletries stuff. Showers had floor mats when you dried off; so a + cuz you didn't have to stand on wet floor when toweling dry; hooks for your towels and clothes, so overall good thing there.

Not impressed with our site #3 maybe cuz we were in the "outdated" section of the grounds. The grounds were in need of cosmetic fix up although owner commented they were remodeling and building a new swim pool and restroom/shower building . It rained and our site had no gravel to absorb water. Instead the covering was a white crushed seashell type mixture that stuck to the bottom of your shoes and you constantly dragged it in the RV; even had a camper mat outside but it didn't help much; terrible old picnic table. It just wasn’t a pleasing atmosphere albeit the site was spacious and wide. I would still not return but find an alternative next time or ask about the newer renovated section of the park.

Most recent stay was 6/30/16 - I'm "late" in posting my review ~ We camp in a "Tear Drop style RV" only 15' long w/o toilet or shower and thus rely on campgrounds facilities ~ so our critique is focused in that area.

One of our favorite overnight stops on I-80 E & W between OR and WI have been here several times, BUT is in need of some TLC ~ especially gravel roadway @ entrance (office) down the hill to the interior roads which are full of ruts ~ all they need is some new gravel. (the inner gravel roads are fine)

Then there's the restroom/showers; a trip to local Home Depot in Iowa City for some paint, updated fixtures, new shower mats for the floor, new shower curtains, add hooks and shelving in the sink/vanity area for your things, and add paper towels that most campers would use to "clean up" (wipe down) their sink area after their use, but w/o them there's no way to do it and that area gets messy (They do clean the restrooms - but still - and grounds keeper is on site keeping things around camp tidy)

There is little air movement inside even though there is a large fan/blower at the one end; it's not effective making it "stuffy" inside.

So for all my suggested remarks my rating is still a 4 . . . because it's all related to improving conveniences since the rest of the park is very functional. Yes it's true some sites are on a small hill making leveling inconvenient, but you can always ask to move; after all this IS a campground and not billed as a 5 star resort with cement pads and patio's . . .after all. We will be back again and again.

Most recent stay was 07/13/16 & 07/14/16 (I ‘m late in posting my review) . . . We camp in a Little Rig “Tear Drop” style RV only 15' long w/o toilet or shower ~ plus we like to eat outdoors using the picnic table and set up our dining canopy for sun and weather protection and thus rely on condition of campgrounds facilities and being nearby our site ~ so our critique is focused in that area.

We did get close to restroom/shower [2nd row] but had to walk thru other sites to get there ~ no pathway through ~ the walk around to end of row was not convenient. This is a newer park built 2011 so everything is updated, modern, and nice. Shower/restroom building (only one) is also shared by pool guests – showers in separate rooms and private wing are very large surrounded by tall concrete walls. Each have a small bench and 2 wall hooks, but no shelves for your stuff except for wire shelf in shower for soap and shampoo ~ thank goodness for that. Rubber mats on floor but spray from shower soaks the floor. No ventilation – thought odd for new building. ~ Restrooms in separate area wing are communal – very roomy w/5 sinks and modern. But no paper towels for camper to use for clean up after use, only air dryers for hands and again no hooks or shelves for your stuff. Of course new washer/dryers ~ very nice area to do your clothes

New campground all gravel roadways and pads [a few concrete] lots of grassy area but no trees – only a couple of young ones totally out in open under hot sun no shade anywhere [they need to plant lots more trees] nice swimming pool though to help cool off. All sites are well spaced far apart for privacy – not squeezed together – each with picnic table and fire ring. Wanted to use our patio mat on the grass and gravel adjacent to our rv but camp management would not allow it – upsetting.

Our site was across the road from the restroom/shower/laundry building and one word ~ immaculate ~ describes them all. Their facilities deserve a 5 star, very clean, very modern, and laid out in large unisex individual & private “home bathroom” style rooms each with a sink/vanity w/mirror, toilet, shower stall, bench, shelf for your stuff, hooks for your clothes and paper towels to clean up area after use + a bonus towel bath mat for your feet as you exit the shower. Cooled by AC in summer months and heated during cooler months.

Rest of facilities also a 5 star paved interior roads, all graveled (level) site pads all pull through w/extension concrete patio, & picnic table w/moderate spacing between other sites. FHU w/cable and in-ground irrigation sprinklers, and of course a sparkling clean swimming pool + laundry room. All this for extremely reasonable price $34.00 w/Good Sam Discount – believe me you will pay much more for much less at other parks.

Be aware this is definitely a Big Rig RV Park ~ not a campground [believe no tents allowed and could not set up our dinning canopy over picnic table] but it can accommodate little rigs like us too. Only a couple of trees sparsely spaced around property most all sites have no shade so hot sun beats down on you ~ you’ll appreciate your awning here.

Agree with Teddi and Roger of Kent WA review + our recent stay was 07/10//16 & 07/11/16 (I ‘m late in posting my review) . . . We camp in a Little Rig “Tear Drop” style RV only 15' long w/o toilet or shower ~ plus we like to eat outdoors using the picnic table and set up our dining canopy for sun and weather protection and thus rely on condition of campgrounds facilities and being nearby our site ~ so our critique is focused in that area.

Park has 2 restroom/shower buildings – PROS and CONS of each. CONS: We camped close to very old outdated restroom/shower building. While set up unisex style with private separate toilet/sink/shower rooms, all were dismal not cheery looking in need of some TLC w/new fixtures and updating,.Rooms were sized ok, but had poor ventilation and steamed up quickly and no way to escape the air but open the door, then you’re exposed. Showers were very small/tight w/little room to move around. Rubber mats helps to absorb the water on the floor – but still wear your clogs. PROS: is the shelves and hooks for your stuff plus a small stool for sitting [all thoughtful convenience necessities for campers] Also the newer shower/restroom building located adjacent to the pool near the entrance of the grounds is very nice All unisex rooms set up the same way but larger, more modern bright and clean. Nice if some day they tear down old building and replace with copy of newer building as described.

We camped at the back end of the campground on the grass and among the trees, which was very nice roomy and quiet. No issues there at all – nice area for big rvs down to tents. Campground layout was good w/pool, good condition gavel interior roads, cabins for rent, permanent and seasonal sites too – all well kept and neat looking. Appearance of grounds gets 5 star rating; it shows management cares.

Most recent stay was June 19th thru June 22nd 2017 - I'm "late" in posting my review ~ We camp in a "Tear Drop” style RV only 15' long w/o toilet or shower ~ plus we like to eat outdoors using the picnic table and set up our dining canopy for sun and weather protection and thus rely on condition of campgrounds facilities and being nearby our site ~ so our critique is focused in that area

We didn’t get as close to the restroom/shower building as we would have liked, but our site was more private than a lot of others. The building was roomy with ample # of stalls and sinks at the vanity area plus appeared to have been remodeled/updated with full on tile walls and floors, fixtures, and stalls. It was clean plus good ventilation with the AC during heat of summer. Nice conveniences in shower stalls with hooks for towels and clothes, shelves for toiletries, and a bench in private changing area. Only wish is for rubber floor mats to help keep feet off wet floor. Sink area had paper towels to help clean up after use (nice convenience) but wish for hooks between mirrors for hand towel

Usually don’t like KOA’s but this one is better than most because of more spacing between sites and selection of sites due to their aesthetics, some with grass, trees, picnic table area, privacy along with the special tent sites, and the rental cabins/tiny houses, sparkling swimming pool etc. However, each site is still quite narrow even with a gravel “patio type” extension for the picnic tables. Must mention this place is somewhat hilly and could require blocking to level your rv [checkout all my photo’s] and also a work in process renovating/improving various campsites; a thumbs up to the owners who show they really do care.

Most recent stay was 05-1-2016 (I’m late on my reviews) We camp in a "Tear Drop” style RV only 15' long w/o toilet or shower ~ plus we like to eat outdoors using the picnic table & set up our dining canopy for sun/ weather protection so we rely on condition of campgrounds facilities being nearby our site ~ so our critique is focused in that area.

Locking gate for security, paved roadways, lots of shade trees, large level grassy sites with gravel for the rv and cement patio with picnic table – not crowded at all. The seclusion is nice away from noise of city and the interstate – older park 50’s era with some monthly full timers scattered about but still everything is neat and well kept.

Got a site close to restroom/showers which is in a cement block building; they were very clean although old and outdated from the fixtures/sinks, vanity, toilet, & shower stalls and reason for 3 star rating. A trip to local Home Depot would do wonders for the place. The shower area is large and includes private dressing area in each stall, including a rubber mat when you step out of the fiberglass shower, with hooks for towels and clothes, a shelf, and a corner bench – perfect set up. Wish they had hooks and shelves at community sink area a convenience necessity that many campgrounds seem to ignore. Older washers / dryers that work.

OLD 50’s era RV Park
This is an adult no activities for kids rv park on gravel parking lot all with full hook ups. The pictures describe it well. Most recent stay 5-04-16 [I’m late on writing my review] ~ We camp in a "Tear Drop” style RV only 15' long w/o toilet or shower and thus rely on condition of campgrounds facilities and being nearby our site ~ so our critique is focused in that area. We did get close to shower / restroom building however have to rate that facility a mediocre 2 star them being ugly – old – outdated – in sore need of some TLC and upgrading – would do wonders for the place. The showers are generous size, have good pressure and lots of hot water and a door on each stall that affords full privacy. They were very clean and didn’t smell so that’s a good thing. The laundry room is much like the restrooms. There are 8 washers (only 5 were working). They are on the small side and $1.50 each. The dryers (6 with only 5 working) are good size but only run 36 minutes for $1.50, not nearly long enough to dry jeans and towels on one cycle– Also we didn’t see a Home Depot nearby, but there is one 50 mi away in Show Low AZ

The sites are the longest I've ever seen. All pull thru and probably 80-90 feet long. They are parking-lot style side by side on gravel, but they are set up so that the set ups alternate so unless your neighbor has the longest rigs and tow ever you really aren't right next to anyone. There are about six different sewer connections per site. Never saw that before - and the electric, water, and cable is located toward the rear of the sites. All worked well. Great for overnight stay in big rig motor home 5th wheel or travel trailer, but not so great for pop up trailer, tear drop trailer, and definitely not for a tent. Overall the place was very clean. No grass and the park is right in Holbrook and only a couple blocks from a restaurant, McDonalds, and travel center with large convenience store. The wi-fi even worked well! and Verizon signal was four bars of LTE. I consider this a nice place to use as a base for visiting the Petrified Forest National Park and whatever else you want to see in the area.

Next time we'd try to find another park

We are return guests ~ several times; it’s one of the nicest rv parks on all of I-84 – but it’s not a campground believe they do not allow tents. Their restroom/shower/laundry facilities deserve a 5 star, very clean, very modern, and laid out in roomy 9x10 individual & private “home bathroom” style rooms each with a sink, toilet, shower stall, bench, shelf for your stuff, hooks for your clothes and towel, + a bonus towel bath mat for your feet as you exit the shower. Cooled by AC in summer months and heated during cooler months.

Rest of facilities also a 5 star paved interior roads, paved (level) site pads all pull through w/extension patio, picnic table, young shade trees, large lush grassy green-space between other sites, w/privacy fence between, full hookups w/cable and in-ground irrigation sprinklers, and of course a sparkling clean swimming pool All this for extremely reasonable price w/Good Sam Discount – believe me you’d pay much more for much less at other parks

We camped in a tear drop trailer with no toilet or shower, but needed 30 amp and water hookup. 1st importance on our list is to be close to clean (hopefully modern) restroom and shower facilities and this one certainly delivered. While it's slightly older, it was neat and tidy like it was remodeled in past few years with pedestal sinks with hooks and shelves for your stuff and private showers with your own changing room including hooks for your stuff and a nice corner bench for stuff and sitting. Wish all RV Parks offered all this one had. Tiled walls and floors with mats on floor to step on as you finish the shower. The shower itself was of molded fiberglass with built in seat - much like you might have at home ~ nice. All sites and spaces are large with cement level pad. look at other guest pictures ~ it's for real. You're not crowded here and nice green belts with mature bushes and trees separate other sites. We stayed in a site on "other side" of the creek, cross the bridge and you'll find many good roomy sites. There's a new section to the back of the park with more showers and laundry and party room you can reserve for large events ~ even has a deck with BBQ. They rent 2 Yurts and 1 cabin if you don't have an RV ~ tent sites too. Very comfortable older well kept park. Rated it a 4 star only because to get 5 star from me, it's got to top drawer and relatively - almost brand new.
