Cabin full of ants, including the bed. Mice destroyed all the food we placed in your cupboard. Lost about $75 in food. Love the campground and personnel, but the rodent and insect invasion was very disconcerting to all. The reason for a cabin, was to avoid such issues. Thank you.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We appreciate your feedback. We do our best to handle mice and ants. Unfortuantly, this is the time of year for rodents and insects looking for warmth and food. We do suggest to everyone to take precaution with their food as one would in a camper.

I was disappointed that my Tv didn’t work for 3 nights in my cabin..I inquired but nothing could be done.. other than that my visit was ok..

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are glad to hear you were able to enjoy majority of your stay. Unfortuantly, we are struggling to have someone come out and fix a cable line that was burnt through after a camper moved their fire ring. We hope you will come back and enjoy your next stay to the fullest.

We had a couple problems with lights going in and out in the water side cabins and one with no air conditioning

Thank you for your feedback. We did report this to DTE and found there was an issue with their services. The issue has since been resolved by DTE. Hope to see you back soon.

Another great visit to Emmet KOA. We've been coming for years, and love love the staff, the lake, and the small size of the campground. Already planning to return in 2023 once sites open for booking.

The mattress was in need of replacement other than that it was great!

This was my first time having a cabin ever and it exceeded my expectations. It was very clean and perfect for my daughter and I! We are hoping to plan more trips next summer!

On the first day we arrived on Friday , the bathrooms were clean . Then as the weekend progressed, less workers and poor bathroom conditions. cabin #2 noted two screws on the top bunk of our child's bed , the top bunk has no true railing to keep you due to the mattress being so thick, so we told him to roll towards the wall and we noted the rusted screws. great park store and water bounce area.

Relaxing. Staff friendly.

The cabin I would get at the other KOAs had sheets blankets and pillows and towels. This one didn’t and I was far from home to drive back, so I had to buy them from the nearest store that was very far away. Very frustrating.

A lot of areas of the grounds need some major updates/upgrades. Renters beware of the bike rentals, they are extremely stiff and the staff won't tell you, but campers will! They rent for 30 minute intervals and run $6-10; total waste of money and your knees will hate you afterwards. You will probably get stuck going down the waterslide as well as the sprayer barely works. But the site is CLEAN!

We were told, 2 tvs, cookware and cooktop and none were provided. Arrived Sunday and by Monday night, a horrendous smell in the kitchen. Ice cream to be served between noon and 2 and never happened! Won’t ever go back or recommend to anyone. Very disappointed!

I was disappointed that I paid so much for a DC and every day the office and all activities including the pillow were shut down by 5pm. I get it you were not super busy end of August, but there were people there that expected the daily activities and pizza and got nothing.

Quite evenings , joyful day's. Kind workers and relaxed campers. Great week.
Aug 29, 2022
The Staff was friendly and everyone was very helpful and everything was clean. The cabin we stayed in the double bed felt like I was sleeping on the boards under the mattress and after 2 nights I was ready to sleep in my bed again. All in all my 3 kids had fun and want to go back and we probably will again sometime in the near future.

We had 4 campsites and 2 cabins in our group. We stayed in a cabin. The cabin we were in was very clean. Our friends and family were very happy with their accommodations as well. We came to this koa in 2020 and didn't think we would come back. I'm so glad we did! The staff were very friendly. I think the young lady pulling the train Saturday had as much fun as the kids! My grandson had fun!!!

This was our first time at Emmett KOA. All of the staff were very friendly and the campground is very clean. We loved that there was so much to do that was free. We will be back for sure!

It was very nice my kids loved it even the cat fish I am just sad the wifi didn't reach our cabin I would go back
Aug 25, 2022
We stayed in one of the cabins, which was very nice. The water activities were not monitored at all. I ended up having to yell at some kids who gave my kid a fat lip after they pushed him off the inflatable. Staff members should be checking on this throughout the day. We love this KOA, and have stayed every summer for 4 years. I don't like the changes that are being made to the reservations.
Aug 25, 2022
The cabin by the lake was great (it did have a fun smell to it). It was nice being close to the inflatables in the water and the bathroom. We loved it here!

Best campground around!

We stayed in cabins right on b lake loved it, staff is very friendly. Great place will be back.
Aug 20, 2022
Kids had a blast. Barrel train rides so cool especially when staff asked them to make noise to wake up camp, they loved it! Clean and very helpful. Check in was slightly bitter sweet. Arrived before 330, only one checking in. While family in car waiting at gate to come in the lady seen me and continued putting cups and such at coffee area. It took her almost 5 mins, that could've waited.

Very friendly and organized staff! Beautiful place.

Tiny red ants raided the counter, told the office, wanted different cabin, told no cabin available. TV was terrible they tried couldn’t fix. No way to sit around fire pit and patio very dangerous with chairs, picnic table right on edge. Wife n I had a very hard time navigating around to barbecue and eat. Site needs a lot of work. We bought wood but had to take to daughters site for family fire.

Thank you for your feedback. We do our best to keep the cabins and grounds sprayed for ants. There are many improvements we hope to make in the near future to ensure our campers a fully relaxed camping experience. We hope you will stay with us again.

My family and I had a great time. We stayed in a cabin and the view of the lake was icing on the cake. Everyone is friendly and staff is amazing. Even our puppers had a great time. Very clean and definitely one of the cleanest KOA holidays we have been to. Will be coming back next year. Thank you.

Our first time camping...we had a deluxe cabin..and we loved it... The KOA Krew are so friendly and helpful.. Definately will be reserving again !!!
Aug 09, 2022
I think it's time to replace the mattresses. So very uncomfortable! Same mattresses as last year. No large or medium bowls. Broken faucet in bathroom. Note to owners: put a little money into your cabins!

Love this campground! The staff is friendly and they do a great job maintaining it.

My family and I absolutely love camping at the KOA in Emmett, MI
Aug 07, 2022
It was the worst. Came in Sunday and ordered wood. Never received the wood till Monday evening. Told them our fridge wasn't working and they said it was because we put hot food in there which we didn't.
Aug 05, 2022
We usually love this kOA and come up several times a summer, But not quite sure if we’ll come back, be safer to ninth and on our last night there ordered a pizza and the girl at the front desk after our pizza shut up burnt promised us a free pizza and the manager who dropped it off policy was a manager I am is so rude and says you’re not get a free pizza because of burnt pizza I was just ridic

Cabin was dirty we had to sweep it out there’s a non Mary Jane policy but somehow we could still smell it being smoked. People starting fires with gasoline college age girls in thong bikinis even though it’s supposed to be a family oriented place oh and foul mouthed teenagers in the pond that you could hear I all over the place. But yeah over all it was ok (sarcasm)

I booked a 6 person cabin, got there they had me in a four person. They "accommodated me" by not charging me for the 6 person cabin and telling me even you know the fire code is four they would allow me to let my 44 yr adult cousin come and stay in there anyway, without a bed. When my family member came they would not waive a $5 fee for her to park on the main rd. Ordered ice and it took an hr.

Love this campground. We come every year. So much for kids to do. Our younger kids love the beach and sand and the older ones love the fishing. We adults love being able to watch both groups from one spot. Only complaint is regerstation process... being stopped in middle of driveway is a hassle and hardship. Having to walk up to office and walk back to enter is difficult for me as a handicappe

From "Check In" to "Check Out" the young Staff was wondeful, always having a smile on their face and happy to help!! You have all done a great job and it seems like you are continuing to just get better and better!! Jimmy can keep his job for now!! haha

I was very disappointed in our stay this year. Paid for early check in and still had to wait until 3pm for key even though cabin was clean and available. Banana bike tires flat, no refund. Charged for damages we didn’t cause. Won’t return.
Jul 30, 2022
The staff was very pleasant to work with. The new water slide is great. Since the weather was cooperative, we had a wonderful stay! Thanks
Jul 30, 2022
My grandson enjoyed the new water inflatable, our cabin is fine, grounds are nice, There were several unruly boys, and they were eventually dealt with, which we appreciated very much. We appreciate how much work goes into running the camp, and see improvements happening. Thanks for your hard work.
Jul 29, 2022
Beautiful property with very nice staff. Only a couple issues. The lake wasn't what we expected. Only walked in the edge of the water...weren't expecting giant catfish to be swimming next to me. I swim in Lake Erie and know there are fish but that was a bit much. Also I didn't understand the need to have to wear the thing on my wrist while there like you wear at an amusement park.

This was our second time in deluxe cabin. Very clean. Could use some more cookware and some mixing bowls. We love your campground power went out but we still had a wonderful time. It is very obvious you love your property.
