Reno KOA at Boomtown Casino

We’ve stayed here before. Since we have a dog, we like to stay near the dog walk. In my reservations, I specifically put on the comments we wanted to be near the dog walk. When I arrived, were were assigned to be on the other side of the park. So I had to pay extra for a pull through (instead of a back in one) to be 3 rows away. Come to find out, spots K33 & K34 (which the staff told me that row is now available), stayed open during our entire stay. The grass in most other spots are very minimal. So I may stay here again, but I will think twice before doing so and may go up to Gold Ranch RV park instead.

The new slot I was assigned too was paved, but so uneven that it took me over 30 minutes to level my camper out.

We decided to stay here due to location. I discovered that after the office closes most of the amenities close down. There are only two showers available after the office closes. The laundry closes when the office does. And the last load needs to be in by 3:30pm. The staff were nice I just found some of the operations odd for an rv park. Most others have showers and laundry available 24 hours Or at least the ones we have visited

Definitely not my favorite KOA. Noisy from the freeway and construction at night. The site was adequate with level paved pull through and full hookups. Pool and hot tub are small and unappealing. This park is convenient to Reno and all the special events during the summer but don't expect much more than a place to park with hookups.

Cabelas and the Boomtown Casino are next door which is a plus. (I would boondock at Cabelas if I was only staying one night)

Biggest problem was the power. We were in a 30 amp site and our Progressive power monitor kept shutting off our power due to low voltage at the pedestal. It was typically 103V during the day but came back up to 115V at night.

The park wifi was OK but usually pretty slow.

We arrived quite late (10PM) and used there after hours check-in which was nice that they had it. Price for a 30/50 amp site was $62.15 (including tax). Sites are very narrow and not very deep. Kids playground had a dozen or so empty bottles laying around the play area. The trash can in the dog walking area was overflowing with doggie bags.

Expected more for the money.
