This KOA Journey is just a few miles from our newest National park, White Sands. Their website states they are also a base camp for exploring New Mexico Museum of Space History and Three Rivers Petroglyph Site, among other attractions. The only other sightseeing I did was Pistachio Land, a gift and souvenir shop and... Continue Reading →
Kingman KOA Journey, Kingman, AZ
I believe this is a popular and well-run KOA in the historical and tourist area of Route 66 and Kingman. However, given a choice, I probably wouldn't stay here again. The facilities were well-kept and the front office has personable employees and a well stocked store but I wasn't happy with the site set ups.... Continue Reading →
Needles KOA Journey, Needles, CA
Last time I was in Needles, I stayed for a week at another RV Park by the river but this time, I was just going to stay for a quick overnight and needed a pull-thru so I booked here. It's not by the river but there is a quick view of a piece of the... Continue Reading →
Tucumcari KOA Journey, Tucumcari, NM
Tucumcari has some fun places to check out when you are passing through, including iconic Route 66 motels and museums. Last time I was here, I stayed at a picturesque historic RV Park called Cactus RV Park that, unfortunately, ended up going the way of many of the original Route 66 businesses and was sold...

Amarillo KOA Journey, Amarillo, TX
This KOA Journey is off of I-40 just before you reach the heart of Amarillo. Although it seems to be stuck in the middle of nowhere it's a popular stopping off point for travelers, hence the name. It doesn't look like much, it was very dusty and windy the day I was there and there... Continue Reading →
Burkburnett/Wichita Falls KOA Journey, Burkburnett, TX
This KOA journey was convenient and on the way to Lawton, Oklahoma from Wichita Falls, Texas. The road and sites were gravel but there were grassy patches with picnic tables at every site, making it less dreary than some travelers RV Parks. There appeared to be a handful of full timers around the perimeters but... Continue Reading →
Lubbock KOA, Lubbock, TX
I was just traveling through and needed a convenient place with a pull-thru for the night. It appeared that I was the only over-nighter with the majority of spaces taken with long-term workers. However, it seemed clean and quiet and there weren't any piles of stuff laying outside or a junky look at all. Most... Continue Reading →
Rusk KOA Holiday, Rusk, Texas
This is a KOA Holiday in a really nice area with all pull-thru sites with full hook ups. It was quite chilly while I was here with temperatures dipping down into the low 30s but I can imagine this is a popular spot during the summer. It's quite expensive at about $49 a night. I...

Texarkana KOA, Texarkana, Texas
I wasn't quite sure when I checked in that I would like it because my site was right by the front entrance alongside a highway frontage road. Plus, when I checked in, I was the only RV for 3 rows until you get to the longer term people. But it turned out ok and I... Continue Reading →
Hot Springs National Park KOA, Hot Springs, Arkansas
I booked 4 days at this KOA so that we could spend some time exploring the national park and sightseeing. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't really cooperative for hiking in the woods and it was too foggy to get good photos from the mountain top but it was still an interesting place. I paid for a...
