Des Moines West KOA Holiday

We loved this KOA! It was very early in the season but even so, the park was beautiful! The people at the park were very helpful and friendly and we feel terrific about our stay and would certainly stay here again when we are in the area! Thank you!

The staff was very kind. The campgrounds have some space, so you can sit outside. The KOA has a dog park, a playground and gaga ball pit, a basketball court, a pool, a bouncing pillow & trampoline for kids, and a little store to buy souvenirs and food. You can also buy a bag of rocks with gems hidden inside, and then take them to a station where kids can wash away the dirt and find the gems. Very, very nice place to stay.

Nobody in office to register and find camp spot, map wasn’t even updated with our tent site on it. Waited 20 minutes outside of office building and nobody showed up. Had to call emergency contact number to check in, acted like I didn’t have a reservation. None of the amenities at the KOA were even open to enjoy. Trash skewed all around the lake and bathrooms were disgusting. & finally got to meet the owners when they were walking around the camp drinking. Overall just completely disorganized. Worst KOA experience I’ve had yet & we’ve been on the road for a little over a month.

What a wonderful KOA! Quiet and off the highway. The stars are beautiful. I tent camped with my dog- and the sites are perfect. So many activities and options for staying there! They had root beer floats and offer delivery of fresh pizza. Hosts are super friendly and helpful. Immaculate!

Hubby and I stayed in a cabin again and they're amazing! Impeccably clean, comfortable, and the service from the staff was fantastic!
