"Low Frills, Perfect Location, Great Price"
Our rate reflects the monthly rate ($650) + monthly pet fee ($25). We stayed from 11/1/19-3/1/20.
After staying here for three weeks at the end of 2018, we determined it to be the best place to stay for a long stay in the San Diego area. The...

"KOA Price without the KOA Amenities"
As others have stated, this property became a KOA at the beginning of the 2019 season. However, it's currently a KOA in name only -- even their maps still say Lincoln Road RV Park. It lacks the amenities you'd expect from a KOA: No tent sites, no...

"Clean, quiet and beautiful!"
We had a pull-thru site with full hookups, though I’d recommend one of the back-in sites numbered 46 through 51 (Caddis Loop) with water and electric only. These sites offer great views of the mountains and lake through the rear window of an RV....

"Too busy and loud for our taste"
We stayed here a little last minute due to a wild fire thwarting our plans for a trip to Crater Lake. We called around and checked online for more than two hours for anywhere along the coast from Coos Bay to Florence, and I happened upon one site...

"Clean, quiet and level!"
What a delightful find this place was! Zane Grey is a fairly small, incredibly clean, ridiculously cute RV park sitting amongst beautiful trees next to the West Clear Creek. Our site (#50) was incredibly level (yay!), large, and easily accessible.

"Great property, great location!"
We are a full timing couple in our late 30s without kids, so KOAs are never our first choice of places to stay. My husband had to travel to Minneapolis for work for a few days and the Billings airport, with its direct flight to MSP, was along our...

"Great place right outside Custer SP"
We decided to come to Southern Hills on short notice because we cut our time short in the Badlands. While it would have been amazing to stay within the borders of Custer State Park, that wasn't possible due to the short notice. Our rate of $18.50...

"Right outside Devils Tower"
First of all, it's a KOA. They're expensive. I hate when people deduct stars due to price when you know what the place costs going into it. This is the only place to stay when visiting Devils Tower unless you stay within the monument borders at a...
