This campground is quiet and might have been a nice place at one time. It used to have cable tv but apparently it was lost when a rig was pulling out and caught on an overhanging branch which in turn caught on the cable wire and tore it down and damaged the cable system. It was supposed to be fixed in February but it never came about. Comcast did however show up in March for two days at which time they only spent 30 minutes each day and have not been seen again since. We checked in here for about a week but may end up staying longer. Here are the drawbacks for this campground. There are some really bad riffraff living in old beat up RVs out in the very back of the campground. They are rowdy at times and police are often called in to settle the many disputes that go on here. They give the place a bad reputation but the owner seems oblivious to it, all she cares about is getting the money. She relies on the guy who owns the store to tend to 'her' campground, she seldom even shows up to check on things. She makes quite a chunk from the campground but she is putting none of that money back into the campground. Another bad thing is that the campground advertises that they have 28 sites, not so. It only has about 10 working sites. Most all the remaining site are dead sites, nothing works. The trouble with the sites is that for the bigger rigs it is difficult to maneuver into them and getting out is no better or easier. As for the noise factor, besides the riffraff there is also roosters somewhere nearby and they crow from early morning till late night and can be quite nerve wracking after a bit. There are almost no roads to speak of in the park, they are all dirt and pretty much overgrown with grass and fallen leaves. One other bad thing, at times the air sinks because of a factory in the area. Breathing the air is sickening both here and in Perry. As for the bathrooms, from the looks of the building they are pretty dilapidated and i wouldn't venture inside for fear they may collapse. The laundry room??? No washers or dryers to speak of, they've all been ripped out of the wall. So, would i recommend this campground???? Absolutely not. But if one is desperate and has no choice then its a good stop only to sleep if you can with the highway right there next to the rig. I will not stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Perry, Florida has certainly seen better days. Still, there’s an old Florida feel to the location that makes a stop or brief stay here, enjoyable. I75 has created a sufficient while not necessary bypass to Perry yet a diversion to old Rt 19 would be worthwhile to those heading for but not in a rush to get further south or north. The Perry KOA is, well, a KOA. In a word predictable. Adequate facilities, including cable tv and wireless internet that work. Attentive and competent staffing a decent location and an attempt to provide an array of interesting activities. Good snack-bar with pizza etc... delivery to your unit. The transient, pull-through sites are a bit tight (except D row) so if your planning on spending a couple of days request the wooded sites. Would certainly stay here again.

Spacious lots, nice and quiet campground. We chose a back-in lot to save a few $, and had to do some leveling. Showers are large and clean, and each have a shower chair. Fenced in dog run, but dummy me, I couldn't figure out how to open the gate! Large oak trees with a few open spaces for satellite setup. Good Wi-Fi signal, free for multiple computers.

We have now stayed in this camp ground 3 times and will continue to go back. We have 2 kids under 7 years old and this place is perfect. The kids enjoy the playground and the pool as the adults enjoy relaxing while kids are happy. The managers and staff are wonderful to deal with and were very helpful to us on our first ever motor home adventure. This is a great place if you don't need to be entertained by planned activities. We loved it just the way it is. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I guess it would be a "typical" KOA. Nice people and clean facilities, just the sites are tight and the price is high. A good overnight stop on US 19. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a better than average KOA. Access was easy in and out, restrooms very clean, and sites were nice and level. Wi-fi is available, and staff is friendly and very helpful. Would return here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Agree completely with previous review. Sawmill operates from 7:00 A.M. to midnight. Sounds like jet planes next door. Would not recommend. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The facility is located next to a production saw mill. This facility runs for 16 hrs. a day with heavy noise levels. The permanent units next to the park are very poor quality. Most have a fence with a guard dog in the yard. We arrived before other units starting to arrive. Another camper warned us that this was not a real safe area. When about 10 other units came into the park, we felt more secure. The park is behind an older motel and uses common facilities. The owners are older and have lost some control due to the amount of work required and the age of the facility. Although the sites are pull-thru, they are very difficult to enter. They advertise big rig sites, but this is a big exageration. I will never use this facility again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
