We stayed here overnight. You can tell as soon as you pull up in front of the office that this is a “destination” KOA: there were crowds of kids at the pool, on the jump pillow, and at the small petting zoo. Other campground amenities include a small rock wall (for climbing, I assume, I didn’t see it myself), a large playground, a bocce ball court, the typical enclosed KOA dog park, a convenience store, and a recreation hall with a large tented patio that served as a movie theater at night. And we were given a sheet of daily activities at check-in along with paper wristbands to wear if we wanted to participate. So if you have kids or simply want some entertainment out of your campground, this place fits the bill. We like to pick KOAs for overnight stops when we can because usually KOAs, even the fancier ones, are easy to get into and out of. That wasn’t the case for us at this park. We picked our site (P211) online knowing only that it was long enough and had full hookups. But the interior roads we needed to take to get into our site were a bit narrow, and we had to be careful with maneuvering our 37-foot fifth wheel around the turns so we didn’t swipe any parked vehicles. Our site was in the “Vineyard Terrace” section, where (true to its name) the sites are terraced and our driver’s side neighbor site was four feet higher than ours on the other side of the fence. We had no trouble pulling into the site, but we made sure we positioned ourselves so we had enough room to open our slides. The site exited onto a single lane road, and right across the road was a deluxe cabin with a parking spot facing the road. The truck in that parking spot was out of the road, but its position would have made it hard to get out: fortunately we met the owner and he moved the truck out of the way before we left. Even so, we came close to hitting the fence of our down-slope neighbor with the RV on the way out. Our second challenge getting out was avoiding the dump station, which sits in-between the two exit lanes. The designated exit road would have forced us to make a right turn into those exit lanes, and there was a real question about whether we could make that turn, so we went the wrong way down a (two lane wide) one way road that allowed for a straight approach to the exit. It seems like a bad design: anyone using that dump station ends up blocking one of those exit lanes, and I can’t imagine what happens when there’s a line to use that station. All that said, we managed to get out without a scratch, and there were other large rigs in neighboring sites, so it’s just a matter of deciding if you’re up for the challenge or if you’d rather pick a different spot. In terms of cell service, the best speed I got on my Verizon Jetpack with MIMO antenna during our stay was about18Mbps down and 15Mbps up, and we had no problem surfing the web or watching streaming video the next morning. The best speed I got with my AT&T phone showed 13Mbps down and 4 up.
