I have no stock or interest in KOA but to make blanket statements like those is irresponsible info for other RV'ers.
Like I said opinions vary but facts do not... sometimes, like here and now, so called "blanket statements are simply true, case in point....
Yes we are are out west but just completed a 7,360 mile 22 state cross country trip and I still never saw a KOA that was not on a busy highway, not once.
:B
And if that 7,360 mile journey was primarily along major highways, you would only see the KOAs that were on those highways. And even the idea of "located on a busy highway" is subject to broad interpretation. If the park is a half mile off the interstate, it can be very quiet, yet it would qualify in most people's world as located on a busy highway. Being easily accessible is a plus when I travel. I often stay at KOAs because they do adhere to some standards and if I am in unfamiliar country and only need a place to stay, I find them a much safer option (by that I mean the power, the water and sewer system works) than the pot luck you can get at the non franchised, non affiliated with anything parks.
