Previous review stated continental breakfast included. Not so. We were told it would be an extra $3.00 a person. So we chose not to indulge. Just a Walmart parking lot with electric and sewer. Nothing fancy. Good for over night stop. Lots of monthlies here. No wifi unless you want to go into the lobby. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This RV park is co-located with a hotel (currently a Days Inn) on the Canyon Road exit off I-90 in Ellensburg. Because of this, they follow "hotel procedures," which mean, you must "check out" when you leave. All pads are asphalt, there are pull throughs and back-ins. The pull throughs, which are relatively level, consist of front and back "twosies" (A and B). A is the front, B is the back. If you are in the "B" slot and need to leave, and the "A" slot is staying, then you have to back out. The "back-ins" are on the perimeter, and not as level. RV's are located quite close together at all sites. The park has 50 amp service. Cable service consists of a limited number of channels, but they are all good channels (networks, USA, TNT, CNN, ESPN, Discover, etc), no "junk" channels. The hotel wireless is available for the RV park, but good luck trying to connect! There are laundry facilities, reasonably priced. The park literature "brags" about clean laundry and restrooms. They were ok, but don't deserve bragging rights. There is an indoor pool and hot tub, you have to go through the hotel to use these. The pool is only 4 feet deep, basically "kiddie size." I was traveling on a Saturday in mid-July, and I had no reservations (risky)! I arrived at 1:00 PM and there were plenty of spots. Many more RV's arrived by 7:00 PM, but there were still a few available spots. Park is located next to a "Flying J;" if you have a WiFi account with "Flying J," you can connect to that service if you can't get the hotel's WiFi. Good place to overnight, if you need it. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice park. Asphalt pads and roads. Very well kept. Road noise was not a nuisance. Nice stopover. Verizon worked well here! We'll be back. Flying J next door. Continental breakfast included. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is operated by the adjacent Days Inn. You check in at the motel front desk, and have access to the motel pool and Jacuzzi. Grounds were very clean with paved sites separated by gravel and grass. Back-in sites surround the park and appeared to be occupied by long-term guests. Central sites were pull-throughs in an unusual configuration. Sites have side-by-side hookups. Each site is divided into A and B sections and could actually accommodate two rigs front-to-back. I don’t know how often they use both sections of sites, but would think it rather crowded if they did. While we were there the pull-throughs were only about one-third full so this was no problem. Even though there was a rig in the site alongside us, it was actually behind our rig. Cable TV is available but there are less than a dozen channels, and no major network stations are available. The interstate and a train track are close enough that the noise may bother some people. Adjacent to the campground is a Flying J truck stop and restaurant, plus another full-service restaurant; a couple more restaurants are within walking distance. It is a real stretch to call this a “resort”, since you would not go there as a destination in itself, but if you need a campground convenient to the city of Ellensburg or just an overnight stop along the interstate, this will serve your purpose well enough. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Worst experience in our 30 day trip. Staff seemed friendly and park cleanup was continuous. However, owner needs some serious anger management classes. Came by one evening because the local police had just driven through the park. Started screaming at everyone is sight and accusing them of calling the police. Stated it was his @#$@ park and they had no place in it. Makes one wonder what he is trying to hide. As previous reviewer noted, the next day he started screaming about our dogs who were securely secured within the bounder of the lot and were not barking until he started cursing and screaming. Later he was stomping down the path hollowing about someone stealing his truck. While the park is convenient, I would not return as I am not sure that this is a safe environment. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This KOA is nice. It is located along the river. Sites are back in by the river with no sewer hookup available. In fact the sewer hookups are limited. It is close to restaurants and gas stations. Its a couple of miles from Ellensburg. There is catch and release fishing in the river. There is a playground area for children. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Would not stay here again. Voltage very low, no sites with full hook ups and cable - you have to choose between sewer or cable. Wi-fi is a joke. There are two wi-fi units, one in office and one in private home (owners) so if you are more than 300-400 feet away, forget getting any signal. Owner yelled and cursed at our neighbor for having their dog tied to tree on their lot while they were outside. The work campers were nice and friendly. We were told that the owner was making improvements - we didn't see any. KOA should pull their franchise from this park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
STAY AWAY FROM HERE! No cable, no TV reception, have WIFI to ONLY 2 sites. 1st time in over 30 years we locked up everything and never ventured out. Were going to stay a few days, left the next morning. Staff is unbelievable, snotty, big time attitude, absolutely could care less about you or your needs. This is the worst place I have ever stayed in my life. It is also the LAST KOA I will ever stay in. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is approx. 10 miles north of Virden on the 97. We stayed in a double site ($26.00 without Golden Age Pass)just so we could be on the creek. We stayed in 2-3 which is a beautiful lush green camp site with wildflowers everywhere. This area is located to the right of the pay station but be careful, there is no room to turn around if you are towing a car. I would walk it first to make sure that you will be able to get out ok. There is water and garbage service. This campground would be heaven if it wasn't so close to the highway but we did find that the road noise calmed down around 9pm. You can take on water near the picnic area which is on the right when you first come into the campground. You will need a water thief since the spigot is not threaded. A single site runs $13.00 a night. We would use it as a stop over again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
No Showers, rest rooms, laundry, cable or TV reception. Close to down town Ellensburg. Quiet. Good for one or two nights stay. Not a resort. Easy access to I-90 for traveling to Eastern Washington and Idaho. Has potential. We camped here in a Motorhome.
