Newton KOA

Friendly staff. Nice sites. Clean. Close /​next to 80 highway and you hear the trucks all night which is the only reason for the low rating. Pond onsite for free fishing. Showers are older but clean.

Well, we’ve been traveling across the states, going to different campgrounds, national and KOA grounds and tenting it. Most of the KOA’s we’ve gone to have been good, if not great. This one, not so much. It’s run down, a bit overgrown. Kinda in a bad spot right next to the wonderful noise of the freeway. Play yard for the kids was dated and rickety. Felt bad for my son, but he made the most of it, and the old broken toys lying around in the overgrown sandbox, and had fun. The «game room» only has a foseball table in it. Nothing else that the picture shows. The worst was going to take a shower and finding that, not only did it take forever to warm up (and it was cold outside), but when i turned the water on, the «shower head», squirted in two opposite directions, in two spray like misters! Awe man. It was so hard to wash myself and my 3 year old son. Again, I felt bad for him and probably still had soap in my hair from trying to wash us off completely with two little streams. The pipes were clogging, so the water was stopping up and rising in the shower. Bad enough it’s a public shower, but dirty, hairy, AND the water is creeping up your legs as your trying to get «clean». Will not recommend this place. They need to give it a face lift and tummy tuck in all areas! This said from someone who does camping with outside showers at times. It was pretty yucky.
