Our family had an awesome time staying at this KOA campground on a recent visit to Penn State. All the hotels closer to Penn State were full… So we stumbled upon this option. We will probably look at staying in this campground cabins as a primary option. next time we go to Penn State!

Thank you, Casey and team!

Nice campground with clean modern restrooms & shower. Our site could’ve used more shade and you can hear a little bit of noise from the highway, but nice quiet pond to sit by on the far side of the campground.

Beautiful campground. Spotless, and quiet. My teen boys enjoyed the fishing pond and bike course. We did the nearby Penns Cave and Wildlife tour which was awesome, and had dinner in the lovely historic Bellefonte. Koa staff was very friendly, we really enjoyed our trip.

The owner Casey and the rest of the staff at KOA have gone above and beyond for us and our family for over seven years. We come the same week every year and every year Casey, the owner, is constantly on the ground working on improvements and making sure the campers are happy and accommodated. He hires people who follow the same moral tactic he has instilled in this campground. It’s truly a wonderful place and our family truly enjoys gathering here every year. The amount of memories the KOA campground has provided us is nothing short of incredible. Thank you KOA for another amazing year in the books. See you next year!

This campground is not a nice place to stay, pool was not clean bathrooms were in disrepair and closed by the pool and the owner is not truthful and doesn’t really care about your experience. This is NOT Big Rig friendly especially with the construction. The owner said he had 14 ft wide cabins delivered and that is not possible. I spoke with the State DOT engineer on the road construction project and 10 ft is the max during construction, which makes sense since we had about 8 inches on each side while driving down Jacksonville rd. I know it’s not the campground fault but the could be honest about it and not put people in a tough dangerous spot. Would never stay here again or recommend to anyone!
