As stated, this is free. What a great idea! But there was no electric available when we were there - other review sites say there is for $10 a night. The sites are level and clean, with a covered patio with table, and your very own petrified tree stump by the door. We explored the park from there. The gift shop ladies were very friendly! And they said we could use our generator anywhere, in spite of the signs, because there was no power. - I couldn't get the form to take $0, so I put in $1. Actually, after counting what I spent in the gift shop.... it might have been more. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a FREE site located 100 yards from the south entrance to The Petrified Forest NP. It is provided by the gift shop. There are spaces available with picnic tables (no generators allowed) and a section with no tables that allow generators. Great place to park while visiting the park. I rated it a 9 since it was better than I expected for a free site. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here on our way to and from the Balloon Fiesta. This is our first KOA where the Wi-Fi actually worked! The sites are nice and wide. The park was full before the fiesta, and empty on the way back. This is one KOA that I would recommend. Our rate reflects the KOA Value Card discount. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Typical KOA park with good electric and water hookups. Since we were only staying one night, we didn't get a sewer hookup site. We got the AARP discount of 10% which paid the taxes. This place would be good again for a one night stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great campground to stay at while visiting the Petrified Forest National Park. Campground is easy in and easy out. All sites are pull through with ample room to maneuver in and out. No shade trees as of yet as the trees are young. The hookups are all located closely to make hookup easy. This is an all dirt and gravel RV park but the gravel is enough so that when it rains it's not muddy and it did rain while we were here. The power is good, no surges of any kind. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This is a large, level, gravel campground. Some trees, but probably 10 years from being real shade. Friendly staff. Had the pancake breakfast which was OK and at a reasonable cost. Verizon cell and aircard signal was very good. Not very busy, so campers were spread out. Utilities and cable were good. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here the 3rd and 4th of July. Location was close to everything we wanted to visit. The petrified tree in front of the office was spectacular. We attended the Fireman's BBQ on the 4th and the fireworks that night. We would stay here again. Our grandson's liked the pool and the laundry room was clean. A Park Ranger from the Petrified Forest presented a late afternoon program for the campers and a small western combo provided good, toe-tapping music while steaks were grilled in the chuck wagon. We did not eat supper or breakfast there because we prepared our own food. A nice stay. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice park. Convenient to Petrified Forest, Painted Desert and Four Corners. Lots of things to do in this area and this CG is convenient as a home base. We had two active 10yr old and the playground was excellent although dusty. The pool was cold but refreshing. Breakfast and Dinner available but we did not use them. Weather was perfect. No freeway noise. Friendly staff and they tried to space out the campers so you did not feel crowded. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

There was no shade at any of the sites. Lots of gravel and dirt - very dusty. Bathrooms weren't great. Two of the stalls were out of paper and the floor in the shower stalls had lots of hair - more than should be there if they cleaned the floors every day in my opinion. The staff members at check-in were very nice. The park was fairly empty, yet they put someone right next to us which didn't make a lot of sense to me. The playground was okay. We didn't use the pool because of thunderstorms but it looked clean. Not sure if we would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Mostly all large crushed rock and dust. Big rig sites were large enough. 50 amp, water, WiFi all OK. Management friendly, but must question their judgment when they sent a tow of a disabled motorcoach right next to us. There were plenty of other sites available. The noise of a large diesel tow truck, flashing lights and spotlights was not a good experience. The "Cowboy Cookout" provides a decent steak dinner and breakfast. Otherwise not much to recommend it. We used it as on overnight stop - which was enough. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The friendly owners have made this RV park one of my favorites. We had an electrical problem and the owner came over to help and even jumped in his truck and went to the hardware store for us. I've never been so well treated by owners. Sites are level, though the entire park is gravel. This is typical for the area. There are young trees, so one day, it will not seem so barren. Even so, I haven't seen another park with trees, so the new landscaping is nice. Cable is great, too. That's hard to find in RV parks around here. Next time we come to Petrified Forest / Painted Desert, we will make a point of staying here. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Adequate for big rigs if the park is fairly unoccupied. We parked on an end site with exit to a driveway through the park and were fine. Bathhouse and laundry were clean but very old. The pool had not yet opened for the spring/summer. Breakfast was good and plentiful for a very cheap price. In our opinion, if the KOA's are going to charge extra for kids, they need extra entertainment options for them. If some options are closed for the season, then reduce the price accordingly. The owners were hands on managers and were friendly. Wi-Fi was fine with good reception. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This camp is run by a husband and wife team. The wife was very pleasant and helpful, even apologized for the weather. (It was very cold and windy when we camped there.) However, her promise of excellent WiFi service did not materialize. When I had trouble connecting the Wifi and talked to the husband about getting help he could not offer any. Finally I asked for the support telephone # for the system and I ended up having to spend 15 or 20 minutes on the cell phone before getting help from Nomad, and even after that I only had intermittent service for about 1 day out of the 3 days we stayed. Park was all sand and gravel, but this is typical of all parks in this area (Northern Arizona). Our pad was reasonably level and roomy. There may be shade there someday, but trees are small so it will be awhile, and then only after leaves have sprouted in late spring, as they are deciduous. Adequate pull thrus and 50 amp service available. Cable TV reception was adequate but not great. Nice gift shop for an RV park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very friendly & nice owner/operators. Felt right at home here. The whole campground is gravel. No grass and small trees. Pool was closed. Wi-Fi and Cable TV is free. Gravel roads are not lit at night. For some reason the don't turn on the street lights. I-40 in across a field from the campground but surprisingly there's very little road noise. This really is not a park for kids. We would return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a good KOA with level gravel sites and great wi-fi and cable TV. The staff is friendly and helpful. They take great pride in their business and were all painting the office while we stayed here. They are not serving the pancake breakfast or cowboy supper right now as it's the off season, but we've been here before and had it and it's delicious. We stop here every time we pass through Holbrook. There are some great old Mexican restaurants downtown that we always have to try when we come here. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

A good campground with good cable and WiFi. Nice size sites. It's all gravel because it's in the desert. I would give it a 7, but the owners are extremely friendly and they have the Cowboy Breakfast and Cowboy Dinner. $2 all you can eat pancakes with coffee. The dinners are reasonable too, but it is really fun. We go out of our way to stop here! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a good park, but not a 10 in my opinion. It is basically a large gravel parking lot. The sites appear to be relatively level and of adequate size. Few of the trees are large enough to provide any shade. The Wi-Fi and cable TV worked well, but as is typical at KOA's they cost extra. The on-site breakfast and dinner is a nice option.

This is one of the most welcoming campgrounds I've ever been to. I arrived after 8:00 pm, and was impressed to find the office still open, even though it is not the busy season. Wireless internet is free with a code provided by the office, although it appears that they charge a fee for monthly campers. Cable television works well, although they do charge $2 extra per day for cable, so make sure you get a site without it if you don't plan to use it. The owners host pancake breakfasts in the mornings and cowboy cookouts in the evenings May 1 - Oct. 31. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Here is an owner that truely understands that how you are treated at check-in sets the tone for your entire stay, be it a week or a night. Couldn't have asked for more! Interacting with guests during "Cowboy Cookout" was a nice touch. Yes it's all gravel, no, there is no shade but it is the desert. Nice clean, safe, well cared for place to stay. Facilities are well cared for, hook-ups in the right place, wi-fi and cable are excellent. We certainly would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

There was a very friendly staff, nice pool, good playground for the kids. Great proximity to Petrified Forest National Park, and there are numerous eating establishments nearby. Campground also offered a "chuckwagon dinner" with live music, at a reasonable price. There aren't a lot of camping options in this part of Arizona, and we'd gladly stay here again. The only drawback is that the campground is essentially one very large gravel parking lot, with almost no delineation between the interior roads and the sites. This doesn't help the dust, which already is omnipresent due to the desert location. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Typical KOA, with RV sites right next to each other, but pleasant enough in the off-season. It's close to the highway, but there's not much noise. The sites in the back are nice and dark. Wi-Fi good. Tenting sites nicer than the average KOA, with actual grass, a rarity in that area of the world. Big playground area right near the bathrooms, with some fun equipment and big trees, But, and what IS it with KOAs? it's as if corporate headquarters mandates that every KOA playground contains at least one piece of really unsafe playground equipment, in this case a home-made climber that offered a wide variety of ways to accidentally fall six feet to the ground. And I'm not an over-protective parent! This KOA is quite convenient to Petrified Forest National Park, and the town of Holbrook is a delight to anyone who likes rock shops, as there are a whole bunch, all featuring legally-gathered petrified wood, so you can take home all you want without stealing from the park. Be sure to check out the great tourist-trap rock shops right outside the park on the Holbrook side. The campground is also close to a lot of fast food, but avoid the KFC, unless you want some edgy entertainment and bizarre stories to take home. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a nice enough place, but compared to others, if you want a memorial extra special place to stay, this is not the one. Not their fault, just not a very pretty area. The people were extra friendly and helpful, but the park just lacks for beauty and things to make the stay great. We would look for a different stop on our next travels through the area.

There are limited campgrounds available in this area to visit the Petrified Forest. This campground is a glorified car park with no landscaping and was very muddy.

Park is entirely gravel with a few small to medium trees. Shade is a premium in this hot, desert environment. Spaces were OK width (not generous) with just enough room for provided picnic table. Hookups concerned me because water faucet was about 4" off the ground and inches away from the sewer connection. Restrooms and showers were clean and about average quality. Shower heads are too low for anyone over 5' high. My wife experienced problems with water pressure and scalding when toilet was flushed. Extensive cable TV channels were provided. I had problems connecting with the free WiFi service and the office staff wasn't knowledgeable about WiFi. I eventually figured out a workaround. Nice pool & playground for the kids, but none of the extra recreation possibilities that are featured at many KOA parks. Park staff were very nice and helpful and they even offer a great pancake breakfast in the morning and a "cowboy cookout" in the evening (for a very reasonable additional fee). The City of Holbrook doesn't offer much to the traveler except opportunities to buy rocks and petrified wood. We didn't find any decent restaurants or other tourist spots nearby. The Petrified Forest is very close to the park and the 28-mile drive through the National Park is very RV friendly. We camped here in a Motorhome.

There is a nicely stocked store with lots of trinkets, as well as a swimming pool. They serve a Cowboy style pancake breakfast as well as a Cowboy Steak Dinner. If you don't want steak, you can order chicken, hamburgers or hot dogs. Staff is friendly. Good gravel surface roads, as well as plenty of room for slideouts. Each site has a picnic table.

Wonderful owners-- very friendly and helpful. Very clean, well-maintained park. Good wifi and cable TV. Also, the town of Holbrook has lots of fun stuff to see with Rte. 66 attractions as well as Petrified Forest Natl Pk. Only slight drawback to this KOA is that it's on a hill overlooking the interstate, so noise might an issue if you don't have a well-insulated trailer (or if you want to sleep with windows open). It didn't bother me much, so I give this KOA a high rating! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Basic gravel lot in the middle of the desert. The staff was very helpful and provided a great map for sight seeing. Not a big fan of KOA's, but this place is definitely worth a stop if you are traveling on I-40. Pancake breakfast and chuckwagon dinners are suspended for the season so we didn't get to sample the fare. Place fills up even during the week. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Although this is not one of the usually high-rated KOA campgrounds, we really liked it. The staff were very friendly, the laundry was clean, and the food was outstanding. The wireless internet worked extremely well which is more than I can say for some places that advertise it. This campground had a very comfortable feel to it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very nice park and has all the amenities that you would expect at a KOA. The staff is very friendly and work to make your stay enjoyable. The pancake breakfast is great and they will also cook-up a steak for you in the evening. There is lots of natural beauty to see in the area and they also provide you a tour map upon arrival. I'll be back when in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Older and typical KOA. The worst part of the park is their sites and roads. The roads and sites are dirt & gravel & very dusty. Roads & sites are narrow. When I left I had to drive through empty site as I couldn't make turn on narrow road. I walked in neighbor's patio area to access my utility hookups. Staff was friendly but could have helped narrow site issue by not putting everyone together as there were many empty sites. My water spigot was 12" above the sewer hookup. I find this unacceptable. They advertise heated pool, but it was very cool on 90 degree day. Most people also thought pool was too cool. Their chuckwagon dinner & breakfast were great. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Typical KOA. Clean gravel sites which are very level and fairly close together. Very friendly and helpful staff. They are still serving their pancake breakfast, and cowboy cookout daily. This is a quiet campground which fills up every night. We were surprised at the number of RV's that come in each day. Noise from the Interstate was not a big deal. This is our third visit to this campground and the longest time we've spent which is one week. There's more to see than we first thought here if you like old historical buildings and the desert area. We would use this park again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The owners felt like long lost friends at the end of a long day of driving even though this was our first stay at their Holbrook KOA. They and their 2 sons were so warm and friendly. John spent considerable time helping me get my laptop hooked up to Hotspotzz so I could stay in touch with my friends and family while on the road. He went way out of his way to help me and was so cheerful while juggling trying to hook me up, calling Hotspotzz when we had problems, and checking in other campers. We met several people who said they went out of their way to stop there this year after having been there before, just because they wanted to visit with the owners again. What more can I say? It is such a joy to be around people who enjoy their job and their customers so much. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We don't normally stay at the KOA's and now we know why. We spent a nights stay at the Holbrook KOA and we were NOT impressed. We felt like sardines in their very small spaces. We had a popup trailer next to us and could hear everything from them. We only have a 24'class C, but any one with slides would be right up against the person next to them. All the dogs seemed to behave themselves, but a lot of kids screaming and running around acted worse than any dog I've seen. We had our AAA book and it said SPECIAL RATES FOR AAA $19-$21, we brought the book in and they said, OH, sorry those are wrong prices. This has happened at every KOA campground we've stayed at. It was $26 for only electric and water, if we wanted anything else like sewer or cable it was more. The WiFi was $5.95 and then we tried to get tuned in and it didn't work, the staff was of no help. We were very disappointed with the grounds. We took our dogs to the 'dog run' area and there was huge ant hills with killer biting ants and we spent the next hour picking out stickers from all the brush around. Road noise was awful from I-40. It did have clean showers, in the tent area, but the front ones were just OK. We wouldn't stay at this KOA again and we aren't picky, have stayed in the Wal Mart parking lot with more amendities. The Woodalls book's review was great, so trusted that, but won't again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Fairly typical KOA. Sites are level pull-throughs with not much space in between. Spotless laundromat and nice pool. They serve an outdoor breakfast and dinner in season. Hotspotzz WIFI is available for an extra fee. As with most KOAs, a bit pricey, but you generally know what to expect. Very friendly and helpful staff. A good place to stay while seeing Petrified Forest NP and other sights. The office provided us with maps and tour suggestions. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The owners went out of their way to make our stay great. He helped me set up the WIFI internet, as well as explain all the options for the internet that were available. They also had driving tours printed in their welcome newsletter which I thought were great. The pet area was very nice with lots of trash containers available. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This park is clean and management is helpful. WiFi is available but costs $6 for a 12 hr block. We have stayed at less expensive campgrounds that offer it at no extra charge. Cable costs extra as well. There is a phone line available, however, all dial-up is long distance. We were there in late April. Even though temps were in 80's the pool wasn't open yet.

We were very pleased with this campground. Almost level sites, clean and friendly. I would have given this campground a 10 if not for the very narrow sites. I have 3 wide slide outs and saw a potential for a problem should the campground be full. Otherwise, this campground is a great place to stay for a night or two. Its close to Interstate 40 and only about 23 miles to the petrified forest. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

As other reviewers have remarked, the CG is old and the sites are "buddy" sites with very little room between sites. Luckily, there were not many guests there and were spread out. Since we had read some previous reviews, we were not too disappointed with the accommodations. The staff was friendly and suggested sites to see and directions on how to get there.

This is one of those "bless their hearts" situations. It's also an example of Sarah Palin's line about putting lipstick on a pig. The lipstick: they have a nice little shop, the people are very friendly, the roads are very navigable, they have free cable (and they supply the cable), and they have free Wi-Fi, but, "bless their hearts"... (and here's the pig) it's an OLD park, and while the sites are long (100 feet), they are side by side and very narrow. The park is just outside a very run down mobile home park, so the "feel" of the place is poor. I guess it's not bad for an overnight stop, and if you lower your expectations and not expect $33 worth of ambiance and facilities, you will not be too disappointed. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The Lady in the office was very friendly. The park was clean and easy to get around in. My only problem was she put us in one site and we had to change because my uni5 was bigger then she thought. After we moved it was fine except the sites are super close and you had to share the cement slab with your neighbor. It is good for a nights stay, but don't think I'd like to spend more then the one night. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We have stayed here many times on way home. It is an easy off and on the freeway. The restrooms are very nice and clean. The office help always have been pleasant. It is not a fancy park, but it is handy and clean and large pull thrus. Yes, permanents in the back, but away from the overnighters. They do drive a bit fast thru, but we have had a paved road, so at least no dust. And will stay here again. We didn't notice any train noise as a prior review stated. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here 2 nights while checking out the area. The sites are dirt and we are lucky no rain hit while we were here. The park has low rent mobiles at end of park. Although the speed limit is 15mph, people in the mobiles go thru alot faster. For the 2 days we were here, motorcycles ran at high speed up and down the roads. Has good cable and 50 amp if you need it. Be prepared to pay an extra $5.00 for it. They have some long termers on the back row. This is where the motorcycles are coming from. Definitely an overnight spot only. Office staff were friendly and helpful. Picnic benches are in need of repair and painting. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park is basically gravel parking lot, common in the desert, with huge pull thrus (100 ft + long) with small 25 ft trees at about half the sites. Side by side multiple hookups (each site has the choice of 2 or more utility connections with sewer drops about every 10 feet). They appear to use every other site facing north to allow more spacing until they need the opposite direction sites which then gives one a close neighbor. WiFi, CTV, continental breakfast/coffee included & +$5 for 50 amp. Credit cards accepted. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a great, stone base, level, easy in and out, RV park. There are trees, but not grassy areas. Each site had a picnic table. The WiFi worked quite well. The staff was friendly, along with the coffee and muffins in the morning, we enjoyed our stay. The fact that this park is pet friendly made the choice an easy one about staying here. There is a mobile home park located behind the RV park, so there was some traffic, but not to any distraction. Located just behind a small strip mall with some fast food, and a small grocery store makes this a great overnight stop. It is just off of I-40 and the sign to the entrance is large and easy to see. We would stay there again when traveling the northwest portion of Arizona. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park appeared to be either in process of deteriorating or being fixed up-couldn't tell for sure.
Office staff was unfriendly and unhelpful-when I was put in a spot where the 50 amp plug was in use she gave me two new site numbers & told me to go check them out.
Sites were gravel with concrete pad for picnic table. Sites were a little on the narrow side if one has slide-out. Park was clean, off I-40 a block and quiet. We camped here in a camper.
