Most all my KOA experiences have been positive, however, they do operate in a system of "free enterprise" soooo CAVEAT EMPTOR.

"KOA" "RESORT"? Oxymoron. Just another way to gouge.

I think sometimes we forget that the freedoms we have are freedoms not because of celebrities. The freedoms are because of ordinary people who did extraordinary things, who loved this country more than life itself.

Got ripped off at one KOA, will never stay at one again. Rates are over the top, and they're no nicer than most others.

Same experience several times...Most KOA's are franchised and KOA home office has no "real" control over the local owner. I only stay at KOA as a last resort. I guess some are used to being squeezed like sardines and treated this way...not me.

I don't mind the $5.00 extra a night if the cg is nice, usually the so called resort is already exspensive so what's $5.00 more...

Already expensive, so what's $5.00 more? Hard to agree with that statement. It would all be so much easier if they would just set the price and not mention the additional charges, that is what usually gets people upset. We don't want to pay for the playground or dog walk, that should be part of what sets the RV site rates. Keep it simple.
