Campground Reviews

Very clean. Sites very close with adjacent sewer hookup beside our eating area. Not all sites like this. One thing we found surprising was no Canada Flag flying but had an American flag.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We had a Canada Flag started from May, unfortunately, Our Canada Flag was damaged by a thunderstorm a week before, We do have a BC and Ontario Flag flying .A whole new Canada Flag arrive today and we put it back on, we are sorry about that.

We had a wonderful time in the area. The KOA is spotlessly clean and the hosts are very nice. We did, however have some trouble with the 30 AMP service. It would cut out if we ran the air conditioner and the hot water heater at the same time. No problem, we ran the hot water heater on gas. You might want to check the 30 AMP circuit on site 054. Thanks for a great time!

Clean campground. Close to amusement parks, trails, and many scenic sites. Not sure why some sites of the same service have cedar hedge, bit not ours. Garbage dump is a bit far from our camp site.

We always loves stayinf at the KOA Owen Sound but with the new management it was ABSOLUTELY terrible! No maintenance of the pool. Unreasonable rules. And not friendly staff. Probably will not go back while managed this way.

Great place to stay, kid and pet friendly, everything is cared for and clean, very kind helpful staff, for sure will come back :)

This park has none of the advertised activities on their website other than a pool. The basketball net was barely hanging on to the backboard. The volleyball net was loose and saggy. The lots are extremely small and close together, and you have to have your fire extinguished by 11pm �. Oh and if you want wifi be prepared to pay at least $20 for 3 days. Definitely won’t be back to this place.

Camping très tranquille, loin de toutes les commodités, infrastructure désuètes (électricité médiocre, pression d’eau insuffisante). Le moyen de transport des employés (Kart Kubota) très bruyant même le soir et le matin tôt. Camping propre.

It was our first time out in the motor home. My only complaint is that our site wasn’t very private we had a cabin in the back but no bushes to separate us. Bathrooms were great and everything within quick walking distance. Hydro and water hook up. All good there.

When we arrived no one showed us to our site. Took the wrong lane and got lost trying to find our site. Patio was wonderful but not cleaned.

We loved the cabin. It was nice not to have to set up a tent and get mattresses blown up. The facilities were clean and staff friendly.

We enjoyed our campsite because it was across from the trout pond and had no sites across the street. One thing we noticed, which we thought was inappropriate, was that there was no Canadian flag on the property, in spite of there being a US flag and at least five KOA flags! TOTALY UNACCEPTABLE!

There were no hanging baskets to decorate the cabins. Also, wagon ride was not available which is available in other KOA locations. Suggestion is to equip cabins with fridge and AC as available in other locations to have additional comfort for guests.

Campsites were very well kept clean and were a good size. Laundry facilities were adequate. The office kept more limited office hours and pool hours than I’ve seen across other KOA campgrounds in Canada. The Wifi had restricted access of 1 hour per day for 1 device, which was challenging travelling with two children and less than we expected based on the KOA website.

our tent site 71 was too close to the road and neighbouring sites, as well as too sloped almost no activities on site. couldnt get any swim spots as they were already taken. firewood was good but too pricey I must commend the clean washrooms!!

We had a lovely time. Very clean. Nice staff. Surprised that office closed at 6 pm. This should be in the confirmation email.
Jul 27, 2021
Amazing stay. The kamp is nicely secluded off the road! Nice sites and the pool was amazing!!

This is our fourth time at your KOA and everything from check in with Christine to our site location was awesome. See you soon.

What a money grab this was. Although normally 6 people allowed on a site, we had 3 adults and 2 children. We were suppose to pay $70 a night. We were charged $5 per night for 'extra' adult. We were also charged $10 a night for extra vehicle Then if we wanted to reserve on line it was an extra $20 to do this!!!! There is nothing there but a pool and playground. No activities, wagon rides et

All to close together. No privacy at all. 2 showers for hundreds of people

Very clean, friendly staff!

Nice quiet and relaxing

My only disappointment was that there was no gravel tent pad as listed in the campground description.
Jul 25, 2021
We've stayed here before but was very disappointed in the charge of $12.00 for a bundle of wood and that you dont deliver it. Even with covid there isn't any contact. Very expensive for a week and tough for someone with a bad back to lift. No help was offered.

We were forced to take a tent down in the dark....it had been up since 1pm but suddenly just before 9pm it was a problem. We had stayed in the past and had no issues with our tent. We are cancelling our second reservation and wont be back. It was very loud at night. 4 nights we were kept up until 1am.
Jul 24, 2021
Excellent. Dry dusty, rough road for .7 km going in. Great people, lot and weather.

Stay was great, but we are disappointed we can’t book one of many number of sites without charge as we have for the past ten years

Very nice park, sites vary to suit any camping style. The campground is not ultra fashionable but covers all basics required We found both the staff and owners very friendly and attentive. Staying at this park u can take advantage of being close to town as well as being directly on the Bruce trail. We camped at a brand new site that we thought was really overpriced compared to what u got.

Camp site where good . Over all camp ground could use some better presence. Flowers etc. Chairs around pool area. Not enough staff to check person in for visits. Price for wood extreme and store did not offer much. Sault saint Maria was awesome compared to this koa. Could not get a refund for leaving a night early.

Good place to park for local hiking on Bruce Trail. Sites aren't too large. Decent water pressure. Some free internet is provided - 1 hr at a time with a code. Just used our own data instead.

Wooden Cabins are very well maintained, beds are clean and comfy. Kids enjoyed the pool, showers are clean too. Loved our stay at KOA, Would love to camp here again.
Jul 23, 2021
Having to extinguish a fire by 11pm is very off putting as that is one of the most enjoyable things about camping. The cost of firewood is ridiculous. $12 a bag is double the cost of what we pay elsewhere and others at least come with a fire starter. Only having 2 bathrooms was bothersome and not being informed of where to find water spigots. Ive camped KOA before but this was by far the worst

It has changed since two years ago. We loved the care to the property and guests the old couple and their crew provided. This stay felt unappreciated and like just exchanging of money. We have been camping at this location for years and this was our last year at Owen Sounds. We will most likely try other KOA parks in Ontario. We used to warmly recommend this park but won’t any more.

Park electrical hook up had a ground issue, owner said it was my surge protector(had it check when i got home operating correctly. Nabors adjoining us also had issues had to run their generator. No activities for the kids like every other KOA we have stayed at. No garbage pick up, grass was not cut on our site.
Jul 21, 2021
Camping généralement bien tenu. Les emplacements sont plutôt bien espacés les uns des autres.
Jul 21, 2021
Très beau site , un peu loin au milieu de nulle part ,mais avons bien apprécié la beauté du terrain et son entretien ,propre Notre site était adjacent à la piscine par contre,donc un peu bruyant

It was great we’ll be back

Just felt it wasn’t up a KOA standard

very nice and clean, the camp store could used more items. over all great place and i would go back

We had a wonderful stay. At our site the power source kept tripping for some reason. At 3 other koa locations in Ontario they delivered wood and ice to your site , this one didn’t. Also when we checked in there was an extremely large group of 14 other people in the office which was very inconvenient as they were loud making our check in not pleasant

I was booked for site 004 and then apron arrival was told I would be on l14. I asked to be moved to a different location. Was told the owner would come see us. Two days later the owner comes to see us. We were not allowed to move. Was not happy with that. Then on the last day we had to move to the upper section for one day witch was frustrating. Put more money into grounds and sites.

L entré 1 kil accidenté en gravier au prix on devrait avoir internet en tout temps les toilettes près des vrais 3 service au lieu d être près des tentes

Le terrain a été trempé toute la semaine malgré le fait qu’il n’a pas eu de pluie cette semaine. Le mercredi la piscine était fermé toute la journée et la température était très chaude.

The campground was clean but it was a little disappointing for the kids. The playground is not really a playground except for a couple slides and swings. There is not much to do here for kids at all, and being a family campground I think they can do more for entertainment such as a splash pad or revamped playground. Not a place I would recommend to anyone with children.

This KOA has become a yearly trip for my family and I now. This site has always been very kept tidy and clean. Especially the bathroom. as they make sure regular cleaning happens there, so trips to the bathroom do not require a gas mask or any bio hazmat suit. With two active boys, my wife and I really appreciate the amenities the campground offers to keep them busy. The hiking trails are pretty fantastic, and the staff are super friendly. The pool is even salt water pool, which really just tops things off. Highly recommend.

Beautiful place to camp; a more authentic experience than a certain local park in Owen Sound. Lovely playground, swimming pool, and cabins, spacious sites and a beautiful pond. Great trails to walk as well.
