Love the woodsy feeling and clean accommodations.

Onawa was the best KOA that we have ever stayed at. We are longtime KOA campground users and this one is by far the best. Lots of trees for shade, quiet (not along a highway) and so close to the river for water activities! If we ever go through Iowa again, this will be our spot! Thank you!

We were there for one night on our way to South Dakota. Location is easily accessible form Interstate 29. Bathrooms were reasonably clean. Staff was friendly. We'd stay there again.

Served its purpose. Wifi was slower than just using cell data.

Nice park - tight spots. Seasonal resident next door didn’t care about quiet hours & at 6:00 am started full fire and talked by fire with guest until 7:00 am. Really hard to sleep 12 feet away!! �

It's a beautiful little place, quiet, and the lakeshore setting is unexpected but lovely. The friendly frogs were a plus! :-)

Stayed 3 nights, it's a nice, clean park with pretty lake views. One problem with our site, we were next to a tree and couldn't use our awning.

Very nice and quiet KOA. We used the washing machines and dryers and they were very clean also.

We are traveling with our family and have stayed at several KOA this trip. We have a 20 year old and we could not make it to this campground. We had to stop for his needs and stopped at another KOA. I called to ask for a refund and was told....nope sorry that's the policy. Disappointing that no consideration for the safety of a family just make sure you get paid.

I am not sure if you are confusing us with someone else but you did stay with us. You made a reservation in afternoon online that you stayed with us and checked in later in the day. No one in our office received a phone call about cancelling. I am not sure what the issue was here, I hope you understand the majority of the KOAs are independently owned and operated.

The campground is very nice. The problem is the management.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Sorry you didn't enjoy your stay, the management is the reason why this very nice. Parking rules were explained to you at check-in and are printed on your site map.

My family stayed in the cabins. We have stayed here a few times before, and enjoy this KOA because it is on the lake. It’s a nice place to relax and it is quiet. The campground is clean and the restrooms were very nice. We will be back anytime we are coming thru IOWA. It is a great place to lay over and we enjoyed our stay.

My family stayed in the camp cabins on the lake. The camp ground is very nice and quiet. The restrooms were clean and easy to get to. The staff was very helpful. We have stayed here several times and enjoy this KOA a lot when we travel.

My husband and I stayed here for the first time in July 2021. We have been back multiple times since! I was worried after reading some reviews as people were complaining about strict rules. We didn't find it strict at all. Everyone we dealt with went out of their way to be helpful. I tend to ask a lot of questions but never once was I shut down or felt like I was a bother. The lake is beautiful and reminds us of much longer trips we used to take to Minnesota. Campground very well cared for, cleanest restrooms we have ever seen/used at a KOA. The pool was kept perfectly clean and was so enjoyable. The RV spaces are very well spaced out, beautiful shade trees for my hubby who can't do the sun! Both sets of my kids and grandkids came out and had the best time! New dog park for my furkids and wonderful new playground for kids. This was an amazing place, and we hope to be going here for years. Thank you.

Typically, we don't stay in KOAs: we camp in the back of our pickup, with two mattresses in the bed and we don't need hookups or electricity. But since Lewis and Clark State Park campground on the other side of the lake books up very early for the summer season, we ended up reserving a tent site at this KOA. Our stay was pleasant enough. The site was right on the lake, with other simple campers (a family in a tent trailer) right next to us. No problems with rowdy behavior or noise. Restroom facilities (toilets, sinks, showers) were clean and well maintained. There were lots of huge RVs in the other parts of the campground, crammed in very close together. We were glad to have reserved a tent site.
