KOA standard charge now $60?!
Got hit with a $65/night charge at Devils Tower KOA and the same at Bozeman KOA(walked out) and I see St Mary's KOA is now $60. No more KOA for us

I always get a kick out these threads. People driving around in motorhomes worth tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars complaining about paying $60 for a place to park it.
^ This. I still love tent camping in a State Park, but not all the time. There was a time I wouldn't even check KOA's because I thought they were expensive. Now I check every time. If I have a weekend to camp, I'm going to a State or National Park. If I'm traveling, I like the consistency of KOA and like stated, they are going to be consistent with rates of other parks in the area. Maybe a little more but not $60 compared to $30 if you are comparing apples to apples, like full hook up. If I'm making a one night stop and the KOA is near my route and offers reasonably level sites, that's a winner. They also tend to have clean bath houses which I need with a pop-up. I love the KOA in Queechee, VT. Not resort style although they have a pool that I don't use. Friendly management, lots of trees, nice bath houses, and great BBQ or pancakes at a local joint across the street. Central location to tour VT. I do think I paid $60/night the last time I visited - the third week of October in Vermont when bad hotels were $200+ IF you could find a room. I didn't complain about the price.
