    Hard to sleep with road noise & bright lights
    Howard B.

    CONS: Promised cable on advertisement, but it wasn't even hooked up. (So why advertise it) Promised WiFi, but it was worthless. Staff not wearing mask to protect customers. Front sites near road with lots of lights, see photo You are not allowed to select sites on reservation site PROS: Big dog park Sites level & set up well Three RV parks in town. Shady Acres & State park (state park doesn't have cable or internet, but neither does this place) Ok place to stay one night, but we will stay at another park next time through.

    Chillin with my feet up.  View of the crops behind T7.

    Management did a good job on keeping women's bathroom clean. Showers were clean. Many sites with turf were nice... hope they can eventually do that for all. Wi-Fi was terrible, but that was out of the control of management... that was an ISP issue. Far enough away from highway and railroad tracks to not be bothered.

    Our spot for the night!

    This place was our stopping point on our way to Colorado Springs. We were surprised when we found out it is only 45 minutes to Arches National park. Even though we only were there for the night we just had to go. The pool looked nice but closes at 8. Out girls were bummed because we got back from the park at 8:30. ‍ Sites are nice and spacious. Not many trees or grass but this is the high desert... ha!! Sites have small loose gravel/dirt with hookups. We enjoyed dinner at the picnic table outside. There is a nice dog park for the pups and some fun bikes to check out when the office is open. There is also a fun kid park next to the tent sites. Bath houses were nice and clean according to my father-in-law. (I will check them out in the morning. )

    Loose sand everywhere no gravel made it a very dirty experience.

    Terrible KOA do not stay here. There is no ADA compliant restroom available which is illegal as of 1990 when the federal government passed ADA. We had to drive to the truck stop down the street for our disabled child to go to the bathroom and shower. We paid for a "back in" site for our trailer and we were given a pull in site which meant our trailer was facing the wrong way for the hookups and our door would have had to open into the trailer next door and a tree so we had to push our trailer in to our site. There was loose sandy dirt no gravel which made our trailer very dirty. Overall it was a terrible stay which is sad since this was the end of a wonderful long road trip and not the way we had hoped it would end.

    Stayed here May 5-6. Very nice park. Nice playground for kids. Dog park was well maintained with shade. Laundry facilities were a bit pricey. Very friendly staff. Wouldn't stay here again unless it was all that was available. Only because it was twice what I normally pay for RV spot.

    Do they call this the Green River KOA because of the greenish bathroom stalls or because of its location? Ha ha. But really this place is lovely. This KOA has everything you would ever want from a KOA. The staff is friendly and hospitable, there is a free coffee bar from 8-10 every morning (donations suggested), the place is very nicely kept, the grounds are lovely, the bathrooms are clean, and the Kabins are top notch. The price is also right! I would definitely stay here again! It's a konvenient stop off and launch pad for fun nearby. I just have to give three stars because the internet sucks - which isn't a huge issue but we were trying to make our plans for the next day so was a bit annoying. It seems to be especially trying for Apple products; I frequently got an "incorrect password" message. Lastly and most importantly, the location and ambiance of this KOA do not evoke feelings of kamping. Being right in the middle of town is a disappointment compared to other KOA locations. Perhaps some more trees or landscaping would help. Being right next to another hotel is just odd.

    Our site for the night

    After driving across the hot barren terrain of Utah we were very glad to be able to stay at this KOA. It was 104 all day and we were so grateful to hook into electricity to run the air in our trailer for the night. This is not a destination spot "bare bones", but it served our needs for a night. Sites have dry grass and gravel, no ambience at all. The pool and laundry close at 7:30. Check in was easy and fast. Just very appreciative that someone decided to make a town and services out here for weary travelers to stop and sleep. Paid $43.00 for the night and our air conditioner never turned off. Oh, there was a museum right across the street but it was closed.

    Closeness to the z as Hotel parking lot

    Tenting review only...if you're an RV camper...this prolly doesn't apply. Stopped here to pitch a tent based on the add that the tent sites had trees, shade and grass. The good is the owner/host was very friendly. Campground was clean had nice amenities with pool, showers, laundry, all the things you're accustomed to at a KOA. Got a good recommendation for burger and steak. Anyway, back to the tenting; One (possibly 2 ) of the sites had a small tree, the other ones would maybe get a shadow cast from the mostly dead trees and chain link that separate the tent sites from the parking lot of the budget hotel parking lot 50 feet away. The grass is a nice 12x8 section of artificial turf surrounded by what appeared to be nothing short of a moonscape...fine dirt and rock. The sites were nicely raked, and each did have a picnic table and fire ring. At approximately a little after midnight, stars were out...and then the spotlights from the hotel roof popped on as if they'd just been notified of a potential prison break...lightning up the insides of the tent like it was noon, not midnight.

    I have mixed reviews for this place. It's truly rustic with some accommodations. I anticipated roughing it, and this place held up to the expectation. The site was clean, friends to dogs, the noise level was low from both campers and the road, and the cabin we stayed in had AC (which was great for July). The only downside that really annoyed me were ALL THE FLYS!!!! So many flys around our cabin, and in our cabin. It was difficult to eat outside with all the flys, which was a shame since there's a pleasant set up with a grill and picnic table.

    Quiet and very clean! Love this place as it seems to be digging the 50s vibe with the pepto pink toilets, yellow sinks and metal swing sets. Tent sites are grass and the Rv pads are all dirt some grass and little shade. Bathrooms were spotless. Pool has a water slide which the kids love. In the morning there's a coffee bar and pastries out. Really nice staff here! Dryers take dimes or quarters.

    Our nice site and the Bird Condo in the tree.

    I stayed at an Airbnb in this RV park for a night while on a road trip going from Capitol reef to…read moreCanyonlands NP. Honestly wasn't mad at all -- it was one of the permanent RVs and it was very comfortable! I found the place relatively easily since my bnb host gave very detailed instructions. It comes with a parking spot and easy to follow instructions to get in as well. It had indoor plumbing, hot water, fully working kitchen accessories (including a small oven which I didn't use but was nice to have access to!) and a space heater in the bedroom. That heater was essential because it does get COLD at night if you don't use the central air system. The heater worked great though, my little room stayed a nice 73F although the rest of the place did get cold overnight. Of note - the walls are (obviously) THIN. It stormed/sleeted overnight and was windy so I could actually feel the place shaking. It was loud too but I always travel with ear plugs and those combined with an eye mask made it so I could easily fall asleep even though I did feel shaking from time to time with the wind. So come prepared! But otherwise I felt very safe/secure and comfortable. Would definitely stay again on a road trip :)

    A great spot for a stay and the service was very nice and helpful. Thank you for that. .

It was nice to have a pool (although they should really extend their hours and stay open later-8pm pool close is too early when the sun is still cooking. Now for the not so good- where to start :( The staff was never around when folks seemed to need them- I always saw people looking for someone who worked there. The women's bathroom was just unreal how gross it was. I truly think the only thing the staff did daily was empty the trash and refill toilet paper and one of the two paper towel dispensers. Never once cleaned or attempted to clean any of the three showers, sinks or toilet's. The little store they have closed nightly at 7, sometimes sooner. Which really wasn't convenient if you wanted a treat after dinner like an ice cream or adult beverage. You really have to plan ahead. We just went to town, but would have rather supported the camp ground and stayed there. Overall - this could be an AMAZING place. Just needs more staff, and a little more TLC- We would go back if we heard of improvements.

It's great the way it is. Just a few notes: -- the campsite is just amazing; you are nestled in among caves and washes, and your kids can merrily wander off "to the kids cave" or climb up onto a crest and watch the sunset or the rhythm of the campsite. They do have a shared bathroom with running water, which keeps the place just civilized enough for moderately experienced car campers. -- at the same time, this place is really remote. If you realize at campside that your propane stove doesn't work, you would have to drive an hour each way to Green River to get more. Instead, you will just have to figure out how to boil coffee and macaroni and cheese over a campfire. -- the stars. The city lights are far far far away, and the desert sky is clear, so you can see so so many stars. And if you sit and stare at them you see more. The only place I have ever seen so many stars in my life is standing on the side of the road outside Marfa, TX. -- two decades ago this was one of the first camping trips of my life, and it remains a special place in my heart.
