We stayed here overnight while traveling across Nebraska. The campground is just south of I-80: soon after the pavement road changes over to gravel, you'll make a left turn and then a right turn to drive up to the office. All of the roads and pads in the campground are gravel, while the sites have grass lawns. Most of the sites are pull-throughs with full-hooks, though there are a few water and electric sites. Some sites have shade trees while others do not. Some of the roads are narrow and meant for one-way travel, but they were clearly marked on the map and maneuvering our large rig was not a problem.
We stayed in site 83 in the southern section of the park (beyond the office): the site more than long enough for our 37-foot fifth wheel and 21-foot truck and pretty much level side-to-side, but the overall site was narrow, leaving us pretty close to the neighboring rig. The hookups were located near the center of the site.
The campground has many of the typical amenities found at KOAs: a small convenience store and laundry room within the office building, along with bathrooms and showers, a jump pad and playground for the kids, a swimming pool, and a horseshoe pit. There are two other bathhouses located in the center of the campground with individual rooms, and a dump station on the north end of the park along the exit road. One of the two enclosed dog parks (the one with an airlock gate) is located near the dump station, while the other larger dog park with a single gate is located near the southwest corner. There is also a lot of open grass on the west and south sides of the campgrounds for walking dogs.
There are no other commercial properties besides the campground at this exit on I-80, but fuel and food options can be found a few minutes west in Grand Island. The campground does serve Hunt Brothers Pizza, which you can have delivered to your rig. I will note that they don't sell propane at this KOA.
In terms of cell service, the best speed I saw on my Verizon Jetpack with MIMO antenna was 58 Mbps down and 23 up, and we had no trouble streaming video. The best speed I saw on my AT&T smartphone with 5G was 49 Mbps down and 5 up. There is WiFi at the campground, but I was unable to connect to it for some reason, despite only being two sites away from an obvious WiFi tower.
We would stay here again if we were in the area.

We stayed here for our 3 days of Crane watching and it’s the perfect home base. 15 minutes to Crane Trust and cranes everywhere! The hospitality is fantastic. Clean and well maintained. Full hook-ups year round. Will be back.

We loved this place. Middle of nowhere and cornfields, but our spot was the best. We were on the end next to a bb court and, so there was nobody on that side of us or in front of us. Friendly staff. They delivered pizza. One of our favorite stays. Quiet, even though fairly close to the freeway. Best of all, our Wifi was fantastic!

This is a nice KOA with many large trees and good shade. Our site was not level and it seemed most were using blocks also. Our site was by the front tent area so we had late afternoon shade and could keep our AC off. It’s off the interstate but it was quiet. Lots of birds and birds nests and it was pleasant to be outside. We did not use the laundry. The tent area up front by the office was the nicest I think I’ve ever seen with lots of shade and lush grass. We’d stay again.

We were in a site closest to the highway so this may have played a part, but it wasn’t too bad. Sewer access hole was broken, but could be worked around. Small fenced-in area for dogs and playground for kids. They were accommodating to our last minute, late night check-in needs. Great spot for a safe quick stay over.

Grand Island KOA was a welcome respite after a 30-minute Hail Alley storm experience late afternoon which broke our three skylights. We arrived late, about 9:30 pm, and still the host greeted us in his golf cart and showed us to our site. Super nice! The sites are very close to one another, but the lots were clean, with a bit of grass each. Location was very safe and convenient and, amazingly, no interstate noise. Laundry facilities were very clean. Nice store if you need quarters, a cold drink, etc. The reason we rated a “3” was the Internet was very poor and kept dropping so we really couldn’t use. I was interested to see that if a tornado warning is issued, guests are invited into the office. (These Nebraska storms are nothing to sneeze at!) Would use again.

The staff was very nice!
The only amenity we used was the dog park which was small, but well maintained.
Sites were level, easy to get in and out of, but narrow.
It was expensive for where / what you get, but not awful. Just make sure you have everything you need when you arrive, there is nothing near-by.

This is a great little KOA thatis minutes off of I-80. The campground is nestled among farmlands and although you are minutes from I-80 you will enjoy a quiet night's sleep.
What I liked:
-Bathrooms were spacious and clean. Private toilet and shower stalls in individual rooms.
- 2 dog parks, one of which is actually big enough for a small to medium-sized dog to get true off leash exercise.
- Great pizza made at the office and delivered to your site.
- Friendly, helpful staff.
- Sites were level
What could have been better:
- Like most KOAs, the sites are close together.
