KOA (Kampgrounds of America) is the largest private campground network in North America, founded in 1962 in Billings, Montana. It operates 500+ locations across North America and is known for consistent amenities, advertised quality, and a unified reservation system through the KOA app.

Three tiers: KOA Journey (basic overnight on travel routes), KOA Holiday (vacation-grade with pools and activities), KOA Resort (premium with water parks and pickleball). Typical price: $40–120/night for a full-hookup site. KOA Rewards gives 10% off plus points. Often pricier than state parks but convenient for family travel and reliable Wi-Fi.
