“So easy to fall in love with”
As native son Buddy Holly sang, "It's so easy to fall in love" with the Lubbock KOA. Located just outside the city limits and minutes from downtown, the campground features hundreds of mature shade trees, making it an oasis in the middle of the West Texas plains. Visit the Museum of Texas, Tech University, Science Spectrum & Omni Theater, Silent Wings Museum, the American Wind Power Center & Museum, Lubbock Lake Landmark, The Vietnam Center and Archive, and wineries. Don't miss the Buddy Holly Center! Then "Maybe Baby" you'll find a few ways to relax: swim in the heated indoor pool, lounge in the hot tub, rent a video or watch a double feature at the drive-in theater. Join in a pickup game of basketball or Ping-Pong, or watch the kids romp in the playground. An afternoon with nothing to do? "That'll Be the Day!" Pool: Open all year. Max pull thru: 63 feet. Your hosts: the Blair family.

Confirmed by 2 users | Last reported on November 29, 2022The KOA was good as an overnight stop on the way headed west. I would not make this a destination campground. The staff was friendly and helpful. The bathroom was older but very clean. We stayed in our 30 ft travel trailer. We had a sight with electric and water. There were several permanent residents here. The KOA has an indoor pool and a small playground. The Internet was slow, but useable. In the back part of the campground, you are next to the railroad tracks. The noise did not bother us too much because we were near the front, but could see where it could be a problem.

The sites were level, the staff were friendly and the place was clean. Normally I wouldn't pay this much for just a stop over but traveling alone it was convenient and secure. Everything worked the way it should and there's a hot tub and pool!

We stayed here overnight while travelling south. The campground itself was fine but it’s right next to train tracks with trains running through the night so we didn’t get much sleep. Staff was friendly and site was level. If we are ever in this area will look for another option sole due to the noise.

Showed up and find our site is right next to a “homesteader” on our site it was covered in huge dog crap from his dog.. not a good impression. Regretting job ning KOA rewards and now confirmed to never renew nor stay at another KOA. Why would you mix your commuters with homesteaders?
The pool...NO windows, NO ventilation very hot to hit in there while kids swim.
Reported the dog crap covering our site... not sure much will be done. We plan to pack our stuff fast and get out in the morning. Sites are date.

This was the second time we have stayed here as we passed through the area. It’s clean and quiet. The sites aren’t paved but they are nice level pull through sites. We didn’t use the pool but it looked clean as well. The restrooms are I. Good condition and were clean. We would stay again.

This was just a 1 night stop for us -thank goodness. The area is ugly/industrial . The park is a parking lot.
The good thing is if you are driving across Texas and need a rest, this is right off a major highway. The sites are level.There are a few green areas for dog walking.
Very underwhelming but still expensive spot.

We have stayed at this KOA campground in the past. We chose it since we were enroute to New Mexico and wanted to be north of the Lubbock area. This is a basic KOA. The bathrooms were clean, but we did not use the shower area. They do offer cable hookup. There is an indoor swimming pool which was open, but we did not use.
The pull thru was just long enough for our motorhome and towed vehicle.
A Valero gas station is nearby on Highway 84.

We stayed here because we had business in Lubbock. The sites are level and the place is well maintained. The facilities are a little old but they keep them nice. There is road noise and a train comes through but it didn’t bother us. I will stay here again.

So we stayed in a cabin, as we’ve been doing in some KOAs the last few months. As cabins go, it was cleaner and larger than many, but with no kitchen and only a mini fridge.
The positives are that the staff is very nice and yeah, there’s an indoor pool. There’s also a decent playground.
However, as KOAs go, this one is like a dusty moth up against some moderately pretty butterflies. It’s not really camping in any sense of the word, a bunch of tight spots in a dusty parking lot. Tight spots are run of the mill for those who can’t afford enough “Cs” to spell camping but this one is tighter maybe and more industrial Wild West meets constant traffic just driving the loops nascar than we imagine anyone would prefer. But there it was, nearly full the night we sat on our cabin porch and watched it all go by.
And though the staff was nice and the store well stocked, I was a bit put off by the reality that even though we wore masks, they continued to approach us even at our cabin. A woman was planting flowers which were very beautiful and she was sweet and tired and I get it. But if you’re not going to wear a mask (in our experience, the vast majority of Lubbock residents do, despite no mandate requiring it), then at least stay away from those who are. Seems like common courtesy, and even if it weren’t, I really don’t want staff planting flowers at my cabin while I’m occupying it.
The more I think about it, the more I want to change my rating to a 1.5...

Heavy road noise so use your sound machine. We had a heavy rain that showed a lot of low spots need gravel. Lots of trees but several are dead. Pool is nice for kids. Gives good access to things in Lubbock. We stopped to visit the Natural Heritage Museum. Pull-in site was long and level. Overall appearance was neat and clean. Nice dog park.
