Details

We stayed for two-nights at the West Omaha / NE Lincoln KOA Holiday in late August, 2019. The park staff were friendly at check-in and throughout our stay. For a treat we booked one of the deluxe patio sites and really enjoyed the swing-seat, comfy Adirondack-style chairs, and fire pit.

Cost

For two-nights at a 50 amp, full hookup, gravel, pull-thru, deluxe patio site, we paid $66.41 per night, including taxes and Value Kard Rewards Discount. There were no additional fees for pets or an extra vehicle.

The campground is easily accessible from Interstate I-80 via paved roads. Lanes in the park are reasonably well-maintained gravel.

Some of the park lanes feel narrow and cramped, depending on how guests have parked.

Tent sites have sand/gravel pads. Deluxe patio RV sites, rental cabins, and rental park models are available. Some of the RV sites on slopes are not level, though.

Scenic Value – 4/5

The campground is nicely landscaped and wooded – plenty of shade.

Location/Isolation – 4/5

The campground feels quiet and peaceful – far enough from the Interstate to receive little traffic noise. Site size varies, though, with some of the sites close enough together to feel crowded.

Paws Friendliness – 5/5

The campground is pet friendly, with cleanup stations, and an enclosed off-leash pet run. The campground is large enough for a fair walk with your pet.

Overall Rating – 5/5

Overall, the West Omaha / NE Lincoln KOA Holiday is a lovely, quiet, convenient place to stay while passing through the area. We enjoyed our short stay and would visit another time.
