KOA campgrounds
KOA (Kampgrounds of America): America's best-known campground chain
KOA — Kampgrounds of America — has been America's best-known campground chain since 1962, with hundreds of locations across the country. What sets KOA campgrounds apart is the reliable, standardized experience: clean restrooms, RV sites with electric and water hookups, tent sites and the famous KOA cabins ("Kamping Kabins"). Most locations have a swimming pool, a camp store, Wi-Fi and a playground, making them ideal for families and road-trippers. KOA comes in three types: Journey (convenient off the highway for an overnight stay), Holiday (for a longer stay with more amenities) and Resort (with the full vacation experience). On this page you'll find KOA campgrounds across America on the map, by state, with photos and reviews.

All about koa campgrounds
KOA — Kampgrounds of America — is the best-known campground chain in the United States. Since the first location opened in 1962 on the road to the Seattle World's Fair, KOA has grown into a network of hundreds of campgrounds, from the Atlantic coast to the Pacific and from the deserts of Arizona to the northern woods. For American road-trippers and for European travelers exploring the US by RV or rental motorhome, KOA is often the trusted anchor: you know what you're getting. Every KOA flies the same recognizable yellow triangle and makes the same promise of clean restrooms, a friendly welcome and a site that's ready for you — whether you arrive with a tent, an RV, or no gear at all.
What you'll find at a KOA campground is broad. There are spacious RV sites with electric, water and often sewer connections (full hookup), separate tent sites with grass and shade, and the famous Kamping Kabins: simple log cabins you can move straight into with just your sleeping bag. Larger locations offer Deluxe Cabins with their own bathroom and kitchen. Standard amenities usually include a heated swimming pool, a camp store for groceries and camping supplies, free Wi-Fi, a playground and a communal fire pit. Many KOAs are notably pet-friendly, with a fenced 'KOA Dog Park' where dogs can run off-leash. That combination of convenience and predictability is exactly what makes KOA popular with families and with anyone heading out in an RV for the first time.
KOA comes in three types, so you can choose by leg of the trip. KOA Journey sits strategically close to highways and is built for a quick one-night stop: easy in and out, pull-through sites for big rigs. KOA Holiday is set up for a longer stay, with more recreation and often a restaurant or snack bar. KOA Resort delivers the full vacation feel with pools, activities and sometimes a lake or beach.

Frequently asked questions
- Can you reserve a KOA campground?
- Yes. KOA campgrounds can be reserved, and in high season and at popular locations booking ahead is recommended. On Ovisola we show each KOA's details and, where available, a way to book; otherwise you'll find your way to the campground itself.
- Are KOA campgrounds suitable for tents or only for RVs?
- For both. Alongside RV sites with hookups, KOAs have separate tent sites and rental cabins (Kamping Kabins). So you can stay with your own tent, with a (rental) RV, or with no gear at all.
