When first reading the reviews of this KOA they were mixed, some gave rave reviews some not so much … none were bad. The biggest complaint from other reviewers was the drive to get there with a narrow bridge beginning and ending with sharp turns as well as very tight camp sites. Having read numerous reviews about the horrid 4 miles of winding roads and low tree branches John and I prepared for the worst. (and that is saying something considering some of the places we have been) Once we got closer to the park, I took the lead to do recon for him and give updates via two way radio on what was ahead of him. The roads were fine, windy, sure but the trees were cut back and there was plenty of space for us and our 38ft rig. Once we arrived at the bridge it wasn’t that bad either… We did check it out online seeing it in 3d so we already knew what to expect but it wasn’t anything to get across. For us, the drive there was much easier than our trip to NC through the Virginia Mountains! Much easier…
Our site was (enter site number here) and it was located two slots from the bath house, bonus!! We were between two others one 5th wheel (a 40 footer) and a very nice class A motor home. There were MANY Class A motor homes here.. half million dollar or more motor homes. The Park sits along a ridge with hills that have to be maneuvered but that too wasn’t hard to do. Our site was a pull through site so we had very little trouble getting in. The site was level and had a nice tree with evening shade. We were kind of close to our Class A neighbor but to be honest, we don’t generally look out that side of the RV unless we are eating dinner.
The bath house was clean, 2 showers and two stall baths. They were not vented well and got VERY hot during and after showering but the water pressure was good and the temp was good. I did smell the sewage once but within a few hours, they were pumping it so it must have been time! Haha
Directv worked like a charm and we had limited wifi though our neighbor said he was having trouble connecting. The pool was very nice and had a nice small baby pool for Addison, though she didn’t care for anything but trying to steal others sun screen! Annabelle loved it.
We really enjoyed this campground. We would be back for sure if in the area… it was beautiful and the towns nearby were so quaint and lovely. If you are even in the Coatsville, PA area and want to camp in your RV or even tent or Kabin (that is how they spell it in KOA lingo) check this place out! I would give this park a 9 on a scale of 1-10
