This is a great place and I would say above average for a KOA. There is plenty of shade and good size sites. The owners are very friendly. We were escorted to our site. Although the roads and sites could use a bit more gravel, everything drained well after a heavy rain and thunderstorm while we were there. There is a nice pool, and good WIFI. It is pet friendly, with clean rest rooms and showers. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Thank you to the Minneapolis Northwest KOA. My presumption is this is the same one at Maple Grove. What a great stop. The people there were quite friendly and pleasant even though we rolled in around 9:30 pm. (We had been on the road all day and had been told by St. Paul East RV that I could not get in after 8 pm even though I had reserved a spot.) I was so glad to find a place to camp. Not only were they open here at NW KOA but as I mentioned they were very pleasant and even had a later check out time that worked great with our travel plans. The place was clean, I had a pull through site with shade and it was quiet. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park is owned and managed by a delightful, courteous, and helpful couple, but it desperately needs attention. The roads are dirt, the sites are dirt with little rock,and many sites require that hoses and cords be run under the RV to the wrong side. We were there on a weekday and the one dumpster in the park was overflowing onto the ground with garbage. No cable TV, and the WiFi is the worst I have every seen with only one antenna to serve a large park. The folks simply are not reinvesting into their park and it shows. Stay elsewhere. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We have been staying at this campground for more than 25 years. It used to be one of our favorites. As KOA's go it is OK but has gone downhill in the last few years. The sites need some maintenance. The grass is all weeds. Many of the sites are uneven. This is a shady CG and unless you have a tripod dish satellite reception is difficult. There is no cable. With a little attention to the facility this could easily be a 10. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Our pull-thru site was very level with a nice grassy area and plenty of shade. We noticed the hookups were a bit funny, the sewer connection was on the left and the water and electric were on the right. Everything worked fine, it was just strange. The campground is very clean and quiet, no road noise at all. We'll be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a very busy campground due to its location in the Twin Cities. There is shopping and a Camping World within a few miles. Twice we have been unable to book the dates we wanted as they had no sites available for our big rig, so book early. The management was friendly and the sites were so-so. We used a Verizon internet card and cellular without problems. There appeared to be some long term folks. We would stay again, but reserve early. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground was so-so. The sites were OK although there were many rigs from out of state parked there but without anyone staying in them. There were few to no activities offered. I realize it was before the official camping season began but there should still be more offered. Playground equipment and office/store looked outdated and run-down. However, owners were friendly. We probably would not go back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
As always, a great place to stay! It's so nice how it's sooo close to the cities. We would stay here every weekend if we could! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This place rates an 8 or 9 in cleanliness, nice layout, roomy, easy access from the freeway, fairly quiet (street noise). It rates a 10 on the staff. They're wonderful, friendly folk. It's a little overpriced for what if offers. At $35/night off season, I'd expect 50A and cable TV. It rained the day we pulled in - poured is really what it did. My tires carved 4-inch mud troughs through the grass so I could get into the site, which was a wee bit narrow for our 60 feet of rig. Sites are pretty level though. What killed the rating above is the water is brown every time it comes on. I thought it was just at my site, but it's the same in the park's showers and toilets. Once the water runs a few seconds, it clears up, but there's definitely a water problem. I didn't drink it without a filter and ended up buying water from the nearby Wal-Mart. I'd stay here again, but after confirming the water is clean. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice place! We only stayed one night, but wish we had time to stay here more because it was enjoyable. The owners were very friendly and escorted us to our site. For as packed as it was, we were surprised how quiet it was...it was nice! We will absolutely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a very clean park. The store is well equipped and we were able to access the Wifi connection by sitting near the pool on a porch swing. We have stayed at this park twice before when we visit relatives in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We felt like we were crowded into this campground, with being in the middle of the road of pull throughs. Could hear highway noise. The facilities are very nicely maintained, hosts were wonderful people, and the pool, although older, was in pretty nice condition and our daughter loved it. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Stayed here for five nights. It appears to be an older campground, but, it is very well
maintained. Had some problem with sewer hook-up which was at the rear of the site, and my dump value is in the front center. But, that was solved with the Camping World store a few minutes away. The camp is very clean along with the rest rooms and showers. Lots of trees and a large area to walk around. Water has alot of minerals in it so be sure that your water filter system is working. Would have no problem going back. Staff was very helpful. Pool was not filled yet when we were there. Check website for pictures. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
