Only $80? While planning my 2021 tour from VT home to Philly I looked into a KOA in Cuddebackvile, NY, which is in nowheresville. I had stayed there in 2018. Tent site by the river was in the upper $40s back then. In 2021 they wanted $105. No thanks,
I’m generally not a KOA fan, but I have stayed in a couple that were reasonably priced. I’ve started a few tours from the Missoula KOA. It’s close to the airport, very close (easy walking distance close) to the REI, where I ship my bike and pick up fuel, and they have 5 tent sites thst have both nice grass and cement patios, and they are partially covered, which is nice if the weather is wet. And the place is pretty quiet despite being large. Now the Mt. Rushmore KOA is a completely different animal. Combat camping at its finest, with hot pools filled with people drinking beers.
