Cheyenne KOA

First impressions are important. We arrived around 5 to be fifth in line to check-in. Watched a DP pull in behind us. Unbelievably, he decided he was going to ‘take cuts’. Escorted to our pull thru (the guide & I joked about inconsiderate guests) to find what turned out to be 4 groups traveling together, all mildly intoxicated, right next to us. I avoid KOA’s (kids all over) but I have to admit the laughter of children beats the cackle of inebriated old women. (The group actually wasn’t so bad. Talking went on until after 10, but so did my TV. And the nearby freeway noise certainly helped mask it.) My lousy first impressions, based solely on the other guests, further deteriorated when I tried to use the internet to check the weather - just as bad at 10 the next morning! The hills in the distance are beautiful - appear to be grasslands. The park is gravel everywhere - what I’d expect in a desert environment. Our second night’s neighbors were all great. We needed a safe, quiet place place to park the rig. This KOA did provide that, for at least one night. First impressions aside, this is a good home base from which to visit Cheyenne. The primary access road is terrible. I would strongly urge you go up to the light at Venture Rd. taking it to Hutchins Rd to the KOA. Familiarize yourself with this on your GPS.

The place is nice, the staff is friendly, the sites are level and flat, there's a pool and a 24 hour laundry room. But the trouble is that it's $50-60 a night for an always full KOA Journey with limited services. For example, we needed to stay in town for work and have network access, and we're on a 30 amp with no sewer and it's $52 a night.

I don't fault the place or the owners for that. It's been almost full to the brim every night we've been here. So hey, if you're full, raise the prices and take the money. If you're needing an escape from the heat or laundry, a night isn't terrible. But if you're just driving through and can dry camp, there's plenty of places in town like the Sapp Bros. station, the Pilot station, a Walmart...

Only major complaint is the noise at this location. We're directly sandwiched by I-80 with no protective tree cover, a construction zone for a new warehouse, a repair facility for Volvo trucks, and the main transcontinental line of Union Pacific. Some trees would provide some desperately needed shade and noise reduction.

Called from I25 heading north about 3pm and got a reservation. Pulled in and got our spot.

Pretty full. No full hook ups left. Took a water/electric site. But we could use the dump. Only staying one night, so that was fine.

Very nice folks. Took us to our spot. Gravel and level. Infrastructure was excellent. Like new. Used the very clean laundry. Everything was very well maintained throughout. Used the WIFI.

Near I80 and the railroad. But reasonably quiet nonetheless. They have pool, putt/par, and covered area for dinners. Showers and restrooms available, but we had our own.

In the morning, we dumped our tanks, filled up the propane bottle, and headed out. This was the nicest KOA we have seen so far.

We’ll be back on another loop.

This was a quick overnight stop that was chosen due to its ease of access from I-80.

This KOA is very clean and well kept with friendly staff, nice swag (Buffalo plaid koozies), and decent sites.

We opted for a water/electric site.

There is some road noise, which is the tradeoff for easy access. The sites are about what you would expect from a KOA. I didn't feel like I was right on top of my neighbors.

Stayed at this KOA for one night on a trip from Oregon to Illinois. Close location to I80 made it very easy to access. We arrived late after the office had closed and paperwork was taped to the door just like they said. Staff was very friendly and accommodating on the phone. Overall grounds and campgrounds looked very cleaned and well maintained. Sites were very flat and easy to access.

Nice place. The sites for RV are a bit tight but manageable( especially the pull thru sites). The shower and restroom smelled of bleach which tells me they are clean. I would say they had the cleanest restrooms I have ever used in a campsite. Owners are nice and very accommodating.

Location from I-25 is a bit out of the way, but we managed.

This KOA is well cared-for and well managed. The staff were always doing something around the park. It's gravel and our site was level. There is grass around the perimeter for dogs. It is right by the interstate but we didn't hear the travel noise. We heard a few trains, but not to the point that it bothered us. Convenient and clean place to stay in Cheyenne. Our site was big enough to fit our second car. Very close to the Sierra Trading Post company store!
