Laughlin Avi KOA / Journey

03/2023 (warning a long post)

Honestly we both agree a 2.5 ⭐️ is more appropriate

Pros: dog park nice grass and fenced off leash area.

Cons: not told ahead of time pool and hot tub are closed.

Sites are close, gravel not cement. Wish when not full front desk would consider spacing out a little more. A couple next to us have been coming here for years staying for 4 months or more and agree park is loosing its zeal. Focused more on casino and not RV park. Roads are like a land mine Internet is spotty/weak. We used our hot spot to avoid aggravation. Cable is weak with poor reception and limited channels.

We chose a back in spot next to golf course. Was nice for scenery however mowers are out 5-5:15am daily so if you sleep in heed the warning.

Now ….. the lack of help with front desk. We pulled in on a Sunday and immediately had a slide problem. I called the 2 repair companies listed in the brochure given at check in. After over an hour and no call back we called another Individual whom said he wasn’t allowed on property without being licensed through the tribe. With the permission of compground he would come out.

I went to front desk explaining our situation and was told ‘I don’t know what to tell you’. I insisted there had to be someone to help with this and she said ‘I guess you could call security’. I called security was transferred to hotel front desk and finally was allowed to speak to the hotel supervisor of whom had to get clearance from her supervisor. OMG! We should have taken our first response and packed up, asked for refund and went on down the road.

This is not in Laughlin. Totally misleading. Laughlin is an hour away. The campground is nice and quiet except when the public land across from it has fireworks going off every night. This is a dogs nightmare if they’re afraid of fireworks. The shuttle service to the amenities is convenient. The casino is extremely smoky. The staff have been wonderful. The only other thing I would say is why if you have dozens and dozens of spots available, put an elderly couple beside a campers with multiple young children and large dogs. We don’t mind children but listening to them scream and play all Day is annoying. We are here for a get away. It’s something I could tolerate if it’s the last spot in the grounds but when there are so many other options available this was a little annoying. It’s like having an empty restaurant and putting two tables right next to each other so you hear each others conversations. It’s not necessary
