KOA is the most recognized campground franchise in the United States.  The bright yellow signs and employee shirts are a trademark that many camper look for while traveling.

KOA requires a standard of excellence from the campgrounds that bear their name.  A KOA campground should have clean and upgraded restroom facilities, many activities and a full range of amenities.  KOA has a wide range of programs for campers that frequent their facilities. Their KOA Rewards program (a membership that costs $24 per year) allows campers to earn points and save money by frequenting their campgrounds.  This membership is more than worth while if you plan at least 3 trips per year to a KOA.
