    I'm staying four nights at this KOA. I am very disappointed. From my site, what I see are full-time…read moreor seasonal campers with piles of junk around their campers. This is not what I expect when paying for a KOA. Our pad is gravel mixed with mud. Getting from my truck into the camper is a pain because I have to walk through this muddy gravel mixture. The whole place is in need of loads and loads of new gravel There was a huge puddle beside our site. Once we got unhitched, I didn't want to move, but I am regretting the fact that I didn't at least try to move to a better site if there is one. We made this reservation six months ago and are very disappointed in our site and this campground.

    When we first visited this campground last year, we felt like the campsites were too crowded and…read moreclose together. Vowed to search for another campground that we can regularly visit and call our summer escape. Fast forward to this year, and we just got home from our 4th visit! This KOA is smaller, but is packed with great service and amenities. My kids love it here, and I love that I can keep an eye on them when they run off to the playground. There are usually events through the weekends to keep everyone entertained. The grounds are also close to the Trexler Nature Preserve and the Appalachian Trail for some good hiking. The only negative: Took one star off because we've noticed that they built up tent pads and gravel "driveways" for the tent sites and smaller vehicle sites. It doesn't give much leeway how you can set up your site. The tent pads are also rock hard and very unforgiving on tent stakes.

    We visited in July. Communication with staff was great. They promptly replied to my e-mails. We…read morerented the full service cabin. Check in: We were told that check in was between 2p.m-7p.m. Upon arrival there was only one staff at the camp store/front desk, she was on the phone with a guest making a reservation. I waited about 15 minutes and she finally checked me in. I got a map of the campground, the wi-fi password, trash bag, etc. Location: Lizard Creek is located about 20 minutes from Jim Thorpe. There is a Giant grocery store about 10 minutes away. Beltzille State Park is about 20 minutes. Cabin: Full service cabin. Queen size comfortable bed. Bedroom had a closet and 2 bunk beds. Plates, dish soap, paper towel, sponge, pots and pans provided. Full size refrigerator and microwave. There was a grill outside which we did not use, it was dirty, previous guest did not clean it. The TV was not working properly, the screen was not clear and the remote did not have working batteries. I brought this up to the front office lady who spoke to the owner. We were given new batteries but the screen was the same. The next morning, a new TV was installed. It worked great! The cabin had a table and chairs on the deck and a fire ring with 2 benches around it. The laundry room and the public restrooms were located in the building in front of the cabin. Bathroom: Good size, hot and cold water. No problems taking a shower or bath. Storage in bathroom. Overall, besides the long wait at check in, we had a good experience.

    Campground is nice, seasonal campers are not. The owners are friendly and back stabbing at the same…read moretime. They don't allow certain breeds of dogs, like pit bulls yet they allow a seasonal camper to have a vicious standard poodle. Rosie seems like a nice dog but don't let it fool you. The dog viciously attacked me and my dog and both the campers or the owners refused to pay the vet bill. If you have pets, STAY AWAY.
