Albany / Corvallis KOA Journey

This KOA is ok. Good central location to see nearby waterfalls and stuff. The water smelled like sulfur and was a little brown, so we definitely didn’t top off our fresh water tank here. There seem to be a large number of long term campers in RV’s that look like they might not even be able to move. To be fair though, a large number to me is more than one or two. There were 5 to 10 that looked rough. I still give it 4 stars, it seemed safe, staff was nice and the place was kept up.

This isn't a one star rating - we can't rate because we didn't stay there but it wouldn't allow me to post without a rating. We arrived for our 1 night stay & my husband learned that they don't allow you to wash the front of your RV. We've been traveling cross country for 6 years, stayed in KOA's, Good Sam's, golf RV resorts and privately owned campsites and have not once been told we can't clean up the front of the Coach. It might be a great place to stay, but if you are anal about cleaning the bugs off your windshield & the front cap, don't stay here!

We stopped for one night and had a pull thru FHU site. We were near the road. We could hear the road noise when we were outside. The staff was really nice. We did the mini golf and we hiked the nature trail. The bathrooms were okay. There is a nice playground for kids. The laundry room was small but nice. We enjoyed our stay. Even though it is a bit of a drive from the interstate, it was worth it.

Kudos to the new manager, what a sweet heart! The overall condition of the property needs repair, but that's how she got it and she's on it! We had a bad refrigerator so she switched our cabin, which had a bad mattress, so they brought us the good mattress from other cabin. She said more new stuff ordered and in the way. I was having medical proceedures, they were super understanding. The kids were anxious the pool wasn't open and park wasn't finished yet...but it rained the Whole Week we're there and it was before the holiday weekend. Looks like it's going to be great in a few weeks when it's all new, fixed back up, and open. Friendly helpful staff! Shower rooms safe, clean and warm! Nice Laundry facilities super affordable and next to showers. Also has space to move around, fold stuff and books/games to use while there! Super easy access to the local towns and sights, family friendly, and trying hard to get the park spiffed up. Can't wait to stay again. All the perks of.. but cheaper than a hotel!! Bonus: with the space and freedom of camping in nature..but closer to town.

After a long day of travel we arrive to see there are no womens showers due to construction. I was told to use the men's. Not appropriate. Didn't even give us a discount even though the services were unavailable. We have told our Canadian friends who are travelling this way, they will not be stopping in.
