San Angelo KOA

We found this KOA to be clean, roomy, secure, and well maintained with a friendly staff. This is a great place to stop for one night while driving across big wide Texas or for several nights while visiting San Angelo. The jet noise above was no problem- the sound of freedom!! Be sure to take a late afternoon or early morning walk on the peaceful walking path next door provided by a local church. At dusk we saw deer quietly grazing in that area and this gave a peaceful vibe. The little cabins look brand new.

Wish we could have stayed longer. Originally were going to stay for 7 nights but the cold and snow were on the way, so we left early to make sure we didn't have travel problems.
Very quiet. It is near an airport and planes go directly over. So, if that bothers you, you may want to take note. Didn't bother us.
Staff was extremely nice! Peaceful neighborhood vibe among the campers and long-term residents.
Very clean campground.
Good wifi for a KOA. Didn't have to use our hotspots all that often. Was able to work a normal digital workday and was actually able to stream a couple of movies during the week late at night. Per usual, campground wifi is tough to use between 5 pm and 9 pm.
Had a nice laundry room.
Propane on site.
Site was really nice gravel and spacious with paver patio and fire pit.
Lots of space behind and between spots.
Close gas, food, and groceries, without feeling busy.

The first site given was at the front where everyone comes in & out right by the site. We politely requested to be moved if possible. After much hemming & hawing and acting like there was little or no availability we were moved. There had to be 25 to 30 obviously available sites....so what the heck was that all about? Maybe there was some problem with electrical? If so...why not say so. Bath & shower facilities were good.

We ended up having to stay here on accident. Our other plans didn’t work out. Turned out to be a great choice. We did a night checkin and the lady I spoke to on the phone was very nice.

The pull through sites in the back are the way to go. Very nice and spacious between RVs. Hookups and stuff is also nice and clean and orderly.

If I had to nitpick....
I could hear a little road noise and some noise from the local airport.

When all of the county parks, and the state park, were closed for COVID, this place was a life saver. Pandemics aside, this is exactly what an RV Park should be. The price (I had water & electric only) was like the average American’s blood pressure...yeah it could be lower but let’s just say it’s fine and move on.

The sites aren’t terribly close together, but hey it’s an RV Park. Mesquite trees dot the place, and if you’re in a small rig they may provide some cover. Looks like during less sickly times there’s a clubhouse in an Airstream. San Angelo has a lake, maybe 1 mile max from the KOA and also a river walk. Were the state park open, no doubt that’s the #1 choice in town but friendly staff, very clean grounds and bathroom and the people watching here make this a fine alternative. The night I stayed there were all types of people, multi-generational families to couples to friends hanging out to lonely ol’ me.

Restored my faith in the KOA, to be honest.
