West Yellowstone KOA Kampground

This should have been a great family vacation but it turned into a nightmare. We spent the previous nights at the KOA in Great Falls and had a fine experience but this place is run like a concentration camp.

We were told be quiet BEFORE quiet hours began at 10PM. We were told to put out our small marshmallow campfire without an explanation. We were harassed by the managers and security from the start of the trip.

When we voiced our concerns to the owner they responded with insults and threats to forcibly kick us out.


PROS:
We were not forced into involuntary slave labor

CONS:
Early forced bed times
Poor shower pressure
Dirty bathroom/showers
Over chlorinated pool
Rude staff
We were not escorted to out assigned spot (typical KOA protocol)
Threats from management
$81/night fees even with discount card


If I were to go to W. Yellowstone again I would stay at one of the MANY other available campgrounds. If you are a glutton for punishment and do go to this KOA, good luck, and be sure to bring numbers of other campgrounds when you find out how rude they are for yourself!

Very nice campground, plenty of room...as tenters, there were numerous site to choose from. If traveling by RV, reservations are recommended. Very close to the West entrance of Yellowstone National Park (we were there within 5 minutes) We chose this campground because the KOA's have all the amenities..free hot showers, pools, hot tubs, large camp store, firewood, etc. (The campgrounds within the park itself are very primitive..no showers even.) The tent sites at KOA are separated by wooden post fences, roomy enough for 2 tents and a truck and picnic table. This is the second time I've stayed here, would do it again!
