    **Review for St. Ignace KOA: Mixed Experience, but Fantastic Staff**…read more We recently stayed at the St. Ignace KOA in Michigan, and while our experience had its ups and downs, the standout feature was definitely the incredible staff. First and foremost, a big shoutout to Rhonda at the front desk! From the moment we walked in, she was nothing but professional, kind, and informative. Rhonda took the time to explain the KOA benefits to us, and no matter what we needed, she was always there to help without making us feel like an inconvenience. I even sent my husband to see Rhonda when he went to pick up some KOA t-shirts because I knew she'd take good care of him. Another highlight was Angie, who organized the tie-dye activity. She was super friendly and made sure everyone, even those who had never done it before, had a great time. Angie had everything set up perfectly and went above and beyond to make the activity extra fun with her exceptional personality. Steve was another favorite during our stay. My husband especially appreciated his friendly demeanor and helpfulness. Whether we needed assistance or advice on local activities, sites, and restaurants, Steve was always ready with a smile and some great tips. People like him really make your trip memorable. However, we were disappointed by a few aspects of the campground. There weren't many activities, and we especially missed having a pool. It also didn't seem very kid-friendly. The miniature golf course, in particular, needs some serious work--there were spots where the grass was bubbled up, making it impossible to play straight, and other areas were so worn out that it was down to the wood. This made it tough to enjoy. Another small gripe was the trash situation. We're used to having our trash picked up at our campsite by 5:00 p.m., but at this KOA, we had to take it to a big trash bin ourselves. While it's not a huge deal, it's a nice touch that we missed. Overall, while the campground itself could use some improvements, the amazing staff at St. Ignace KOA, particularly Rhonda, Angie, and Steve, made our stay much more enjoyable. Their friendliness, helpfulness, and professionalism were the highlights of our trip.

    We booked a water/electric before reading reviews and went in with low expectations, which is far…read morebetter than reading great reviews, going in with high expectations and ultimately being let down The Cons: Mosquitoes- they came hungry... by the billions... and they had serious body mass. The tops of my poor feet look like I have pox. I didn't dock stars for mother nature being so cruel. Also looks like landscaping is still in progress but it definitely appears to be going the right direction. Our power connection left us hanging out waaay too far into the street, with the water on the opposite side (shared) needing a 75ft hose - not the most ideal layout & that wasn't true of all spots. Granted, it really opened up the front space. Not all amenities were up & running- no wifi yet (we didn't need it), only 1 pool open (with nobody in it, so no loss there) & hot tub not open. The Pros: Excellent Communication! We received texts for events, (including the rescheduled fireworks), firewood sales/delivery, closing times & check out reminders. Large camping spots - (tho, again, not all were laid out ideally) with HUGE fire rings, grassy spots, large/ low-maintenance tables. No need to like the neighbors- you won't be sharing your space. Free Ferry Shuttle Friendly/Accommodating Staff Location, Location, Location While other properties have more ammenities, this one felt more organized and, as we had no kids with us, this was a great fit. There is a bounce pad, pool & mini golf for the kids, with no additional cost.
