Commercial campgrounds have this one glaring problem: a pressing need to maximize income on a given patch of dirt. You do that by packing the sites as closely as possible. KOA has no magic solution to that basic economic reality.
That's one reason why I'd prefer a County, State, or National campground. They do not have that economic pressure. They also often do not have the amenities, which makes them cheaper. You pays your money and you takes your pick.
