The campground is very well taken care of. Staff is friendly & helpful. We will definitely stay again.

Campground was nice, bathrooms need some work. They only allow one sleeping unit per site but do not inform you until you arrive to campground. So they made us book another campsite for the second night with only 2 people per site. They told us it gets too rowdy with multiple sleeping units per site. Would not have booked if this information was available online.

Everything was great! Think they should get rid of sandbox due to stray cats.

Friendly, clean, nice sites. The fishing pond is a great idea.

Respectfully, it's clean and well maintained and I'm sure it's a great spot to stop and sleep on a long haul but I fear it will quickly be kid free. Younger families with young children want some reasonable adult time around the fire after the kids are put to sleep. Talking after 11 pm at the fire is strictly forbidden and enforced aggressively. Been coming here for years, don't fit in anymore.

We had to wait 10 minutes for the attendant to open the store to register, he was there, but made us wait till 1pm, it seemed our site caught all the rain from the rest of the the sites, didn’t bother to to check on the site because of the rain and didn’t bother to put gravel down. He was more worried about people driving on the grass. Thank you.

This was the best campground in the Erie area. (And we have stayed in several!). The sites were spacious and well maintained, everything was clean, and ALL staff members were helpful and pleasant. Definitely it will be our go to campground for Erie.

This is the 1st KOA that I don't plan to return to. I get, the owners like quiet but this is overboard. We was told to be quiet at 8:45 in the evening. Saying he had a noise complaint. Mixed feelings about that since we had been talking to the neiboring campers. No real activities to enjoy, jump pillow not aired up. The only thing they did was start a movie.

We love this campground! We understand staff shortages everywhere. We appreciate the accommodation for the sites we had.

I previously stayed at this KOA with my family a few years ago with the other owners! I urge you not to listen to the negative reviews of this KOA! They were excellent anything you needed they didn’t hesitate to help! We had some trouble with our stove and grill but after that we were good to go! My only complaint is we didn’t have dish sponges or dish towels and we didn’t have hand soap 100

Check in before 1pm was touchy as office was closed til 1pm. But at 1pm owner came out and gave us a welcome pack and site # and asked to settle up later in office, and was apologetic. Unfortunately, due to low staffing there was no pool, icecrm social or Sun Pancake breakfast. But we were still charged reg rate, even though we didn't get these amenities. Campgrd was clean & sites weren't close.

Very nice campground!!

Owners was helpful and kind. He told us about local attractions and gave good directions to the park. The park was clean and easy to move the rig. Awesome!
Sep 14, 2021
They checked us in fine stuff was very kind. But they said that their staff was short handed and I could understand that. There wasn’t much for the kids but I have to say they very hard with what they had. Now the bad part shame on the campers. They where very messy when it came to the restrooms. They stuffed toilets,did not report to the desk. The staff cleaned them and the campers trashed them

Staff was very polite and courteous. Everything was clean and very peaceful. Very relaxing stay.

Disappointed that they didn't have any activities given it was KOA appreciation weekend. I noticed other KOAs had all kinds of activities for adults and kids for their appreciation weekend.

The staff was friendly at the desk. Our cabin and the site around it was really nice and clean. Even the fire pit was cleaned out. Beautiful campground.
Sep 13, 2021
It's pricey, but the area is beautiful and the staff are very friendly. There's unique ways to stay too: cabins and teepee's in particular.
Sep 13, 2021
The cabin was clean and fully equipped. It was so pleasant and relaxing. Just perfect!

Campground was clean and well maintained. Staff was wonderful and friendly. The jump pad was closed by the Dept. of Ag. but it wasn’t a deal breaker for us. It was a perfect base to visit Erie.

It was awful it was like living under a dictatorship. Sites were advertised for small Rv and tents but when we set up tent with a Rv we were told we had to rent a separate site. I paid for 5 people it didn’t make sense where did they think we were all sleeping. I was told if everyone had their own tenant everyone would have to rent a site all single people would have to rent their own site

Awesome campground very kid friendly

I’ve been coming there for 35 years. We are on a third generation. We love it! It’s home away from home.

Customer service at the front counter was superb. Forgot her name, but she lives 3 miles from there. Very knowledgeable and friendly and was able to multi task with several customers needing things. Very clean facilities and nice set up.

Thought ownership over did the 11pm quiet time. Said that NORMAL voice is too loud, Also changing the park, throwing out seasonal and no children activities. Spoke to many Labor day, their fed up too! Its their park!!

We were here for only 1 night but upon arrival we thought it was a lovely setting….fairly spacious sites, nice and level too. There was a pond that people were enjoying fishing at. We did have a heavy rain burst and the drives did pool which made it a bit difficult to walk our dog but overall I’d rate this campground a 5 star. It would be a spot I would make a destination in the future.

3rd stay this summer!
Sep 11, 2021
The owner is very nice and helpful. The park is close for easy access from I 90, but far enough there is no highway noise. We stayed here two times and would definitely stay there again.
Sep 11, 2021
Nice friendly staff. Lots of green space. Did not use facilities as we were there only for one night. Would stay again though.
Sep 10, 2021
Very nice campground with level sites, grass, land clean laundry room. Nice shopping in camp store. Friendly owner. Short drive to Erie and Presque Isle. West Rd traffic a bit noisy. Need to expand K9 area but lots of grass for walks. Not far to I-90 so great overnight stop too. We stayed 2 nights. Will be back.
Sep 10, 2021
The campground was great from beginning to end. Nice check in. The owner/host was helpful and cared how I was treated. Great customer service. The camp grounds were clean and kept up well. The fishing pond was beautiful. We enjoyed our stay and hope to come back again. Thank you, Arvil N.

Although we didn't make an advance reservation, we were able to get a pull-through space so we didn't have to unhook. Staff was very accommodating and courtious. We have stayed here once before.

The Erie KOA is a nice, clean campground geared for family fun. Easy off I-79. Friendly staff. Nice amenities - pool during summer, pavilion for movie night, DJ, fishing pond, camp store, LP and others. The bath house is adequate. The off-leash pet area is very small. We booked a new pull-through site with a nice patio. About 15 mins to Presque Isle. Road traffic is noticeable for close sites.

17 people/7 sites coming for 15 years. No one booked again.New owners creep up behind you in personal space.Told us talking too loud.Literally were told to whisper not speak out loud after 11.asked why we couldnt talk and threatened with cops. 4 of us have NYS badges - not rowdy.Many campers kicked out no refund, some for laughing after 11pm Everyone upset all weekend. Check reviews - need refund

This campground is billed as a KOA Holiday but our experience was anything but. This campground is lacking in amenities and activities. We've been to other KOA Holidays that have theme weekends, kids crafts, games and more. They had a DJ one night and movie the other 2 and that was it. For a holiday weekend the campground was empty. Read other reviews about quiet hours and harassment- all true!

Our family loves this campground! Very family friendly! New owners are very nice and always working to make the campground an enjoyable place for all. And it's just a short drive to presque isle, the zoo and many other thing in Erie.

Just finished our 4th and unfortunately last trip for the '21 season. We had so much fun this summer at the McKean PA KOA!! We tent camped with amenities. This campground is family friendly with a heated pool, playground, arcade and other amenities for kids. We love the catch and release pond. There's some big ones in there, my husband has caught them. We really enjoyed ourselves everytime we stayed. (even when it rained) The staff were All Always Awesome!! They Always treated us Wonderfully!! The bathrooms were kept clean.The owner even gave us a specific site because of a medical condition I have. (Thank you Jamie!! :) All of our trips have been just what I needed after losing my Dad a few months ago. If you camp at KOA's we suggest signing up for the KOA Rewards program. It saves you money and you get to stay for free at a KOA one designated weekend a year. If you're planning a trip to Erie we Highly recommend the McKean, PA KOA!! The campground sits right off of I79 and beautiful Presque Isle is just a short drive away! We're planning to purchase a pop-up this off season and our first trip with it will be to the McKean. **UPDATE October 2021 We got our "new pup" and stayed in McKean for a long Halloween theme weekend. It was wonderful of the owners to plan such fun activities for the kiddos. I really enjoyed decorating and handing out candy!*** I also just want to say that we Never heard anyone around us ever complain about any of the staff any of the 5 times we stayed there! We also never saw or heard any type of confrontation between staff and guests anywhere in the campground. All we saw were Very Hard working owners & staff who just wanted to keep everyone happy & safe and ensure everyone had a good time!
