Our visit to Niagara Falls KOA took place from 9/11 - 9/15 2023, in a Deluxe Cabin (Kabin 2). arrival and check in went smoothly and was fast. Wechecked in just after 6, and a very kind gentleman advised us our keys were in the cabin and it was unlocked. I should mention we travel with two large dogs, Chesapeake Bay Retrievers, our best boy is 9 but his compadre Annie is an8 month old hooligan.
on entering the cabin, we found it to be immaculate. Linens were snowy white, bedbug check was negative (I always worry), stovetop, refigerator, and microwave were sparkling clean, all the furnishings were pristine. Bathroom was totally clean and sanitized.
This is a 28 foot deluxe, is supposed to sleep 6. There is a tiny bunk alcoveon the left, very difficult to make the beds up. the central area features a table, four chairs, a sofa (bed) and the small kitchen area, fridge, two burner cooktop, sink and microwave. zero counterspace. on top of the fridge are 1 small shelf and a top shelf, with a single serve Keurig, four K Cups to start, and dried coffee condiments. it is hard to reach and operate, but it's there, and we had brought our own coffepot, so no matter. the kitchen has drawers and cabinets equipped with everything needed, glasses, mugs, dishtowels, silverware, plates, bowls, pots and pans (3).
The bathroom is tiny but came with abundant towels, washcloths, hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash. the tub itself is miniscule and sits well up off floor level. Use extreme caution getting out, because the floor is not where you think it should be...
on the right of the central area is a queen bedroom. Bed is comfortable and lotsof pillows are provided. All the rooms in the cabin have pocket doors. There is a tv over the table area but the cable selection is a bit basic....but yes, you are supposed to be camping.
the campground itself is outstanding. great selection of sites, landscaping is well kept and beautiful throughout. seems to be plenty for the kids to do. Three pools, one indoor. Mining Co to sift through gem bags, craft cabin, nice playgrounds , bike rentals.
Dog friendly? Yes. There are three " dog parks" withinthe campground. One does not deserve the name as it barely qualifies as a dog crate, it's about 6 ft x 6 ft. And it is so adjacent to an actual campsite you have to go on the sit in order to access it. There is a mid sized, about 30 x 40 feet between the big pavillion and the playground which is better. The largest, maybe 30 x 100 feet is way in the back corner behind some primitive tent sites. It is large enough for big dogs to run and play. However, the gate latch is broken so you have to tie it shut with a leash.
Camp store is terrific. Staff are competent and pleasant.the place feels like you are actually out in nature even though it is nestled in a high traffic urban tourist area.
Highly recommend!
