Flagstaff KOA

We've stayed at this park a few times, and have always enjoyed our stay. In the last year, they upgraded many of the sites with stone patios, privacy fences and Weber grills (w/gas). This last trip was during the COVID shelter in place, but the breakfast trailer was open for carry-out. Many of the other services were rightly offline. Check-in always easy, and the park usually very quiet. Be aware the pricing may be higher on weekends and during festivals/special events.

If there were half stars I would rate this a 3 1/2. This KOA is ok. Nothing outstanding. And there are some areas that are in need of some TLC and repairs.
To me the highlights are great trees, sunny skies with warm daytime temps and cool evenings.
Some spots look out at the mountain and there are trailheads that lead right to the park so that’s a plus
You are a short few miles to downtown Flagstaff too.

Expensive for the quality of this KOA compared to the one we stayed at in Albuquerque. Sites were gravel and sloped; it was difficult to level our fifth wheel. There are trees in the area which was pretty! Bathrooms were clean but other than that, most amenities were closed for the winter and/or we didn’t use them. WiFi signal was strong and we were able to stream Netflix. Water pressure was good, no issues. Pretty quiet overall for site noise, but the wind was brutal during our 2nd night! Dump site was a little far from the electric box which was kind of annoying. It’s about 10-15 min from downtown flagstaff. Staff was friendly at check in. Overall it was fine for 2 nights but I wouldn’t want to stay long term!

First time at KOA. Very impressed The campground was clean the bathrooms and showers were exceptionally clean. There was plenty of hot water. My campsite was level and speaking to most people here they seem to be happy. The staff cleans regularly. The property is very clean
You hear a little traffic from State Road 89 up until about 8 o’clock at night and then really it only picks up about 8 o’clock in the morning to hear it again. Otherwise very quiet

We selected this CG because we were visiting in shoulder season and knew we needed electric service to deal with potentially low overnight temperatures, so a private CG made the most sense. All other CGs in Flagstaff were not yet open in mid-March. We ended up being satisfied with our stay, but mostly because we were some of the only visitors.

Our back-in site was surrounded by trees, yet close to the bathrooms. The bathrooms were a bit dated but worked fine and, most important, were well-heated during a winter storm. Laundry facilities were being renovated during our stay, which was disappointing since we intended to do laundry, but it's nice to see improvements being done. Our utility post had some issues (electric was cutting out) but the office sent over a technician promptly to address the problem. Office staff was friendly and helpful. Shopping and various destinations (national monuments, Lowell Observatory, etc.) were very close and convenient.

This park worked great for our needs, but if we were visiting in high season, we probably would have hated it. It offered the worst of both worlds: the extremely narrow drive lanes, prolific trees that made it hard to maneuver, and unlevel spots reminded us of public parks, but without the scenery and privacy. Instead, the somewhat random arrangement of sites in the back-in area left us with close neighboring sites outside literally every window. If the park were full, we would have absolutely been crazed by the lack of privacy. Also, it's an urban park with plenty of noise from trains, passing ambulances, etc. The dump station was a complete mess (hard to access because od weird placement of the sewer access, did not drain properly, weirdly unlevel so hard to drain tanks, not equipped with rinse hoses, etc.).

The park was safe and friendly, but not our favorite environment at all. As an in-town park, cell service on AT&T was flawless.
