Davie / Ft. Lauderdale KOA

Only gave 1 star in Oder to leave a review.
Upon check in we noticed the grass was very tall and UN– mowed. Run down units, overgrowth of weeds everywhere.
Manager charged us $ 10 per day for our second truck.
Even though the park is nearly empty. Then wanted us to park it practically outside the park in the front, while we camped at the opposite end!!!
Narrow, cracked blacktop roads. No room to maneuver
at all. We were charged additional $ 5 per day for each dog. All of these additional charges and we are KOA members. Put in a very tight, dirt space with our nice
33 ft Sunnybrook Fifth Wheel. Our 2 nd and last night
She placed a tent directly next to us, even though there were multiple tent spots on the other end of park.
Rude manager that raked us with every charge she could dig up!!! We left after 2 days, we had enough!!!
Mosquitos and chiggers heavy due to long grass.
KOA could have had our money for one year, but this park is just not up to normal KOA standards!!!
Total dump.

The office staff is incredibly rude and unprofessional. I had my camper in storage. I called on the first to make a payment for my camper. They refused to take a payment over the phone. Said I had to come in in person. I don’t live near there and have a baby and said I couldn’t come in until the next day. They said no problem, but I’d have to pay a late fee. Ok. I took the afternoon off of work and drove a hour and a half to get there. I had a check written out for 5 months in advance (they refuse to do an automatic monthly payment). They said the manager wouldn’t take it. My husband paid a day late 6 months ago and so this was the second time I was late. I explained that was why I wanted to pay in advance. They said too bad and I needed to remove my RV immediately. It took me a couple of hours to arrange a truck and transport and they called constantly demanding immediate refusal. I’ve never met such bitchy demanding people.

Stayed at this dump for one day during December, 2014. Spaces were tight even for my 20′ RV. Access road to sites is narrow, full of bumps, potholes, and rocks. If you have a travel trailer there is no place near the site to park your vehicle. God help you if you park where you are not supposed to park — as it will surely get the attention of one of the «snowbird» residents with a heavy French accent who thinks they run the show. Staff was friendly and helpful. Nosey neighbors and other campers were rude, obnoxious and stared at me as if I was from the planet Zontar. One knocked on my RV about 9pm asking «Where did you buy this thing?» and another sternly reminded me that I need to be at least six inches away from the concrete pad otherwise he would see to it that I was fined.
After staying one night (3 night reservation) I hitched up and got the heck out of Dodge — not even asking for a refund on the unused nights.
If you don’t mind living amongst the transient/​homeless/​Canadian snowbirds stay at this overpriced campground and enjoy the cigarette smoke filled atmosphere.
This facility has great potential.
1. They need set a maximum stay limit to eliminate the transient homeless and Canadian snowbirds.
2. Any old and abandoned eyesore RVs need to be disposed of.
3. Make it a non-​smoking facility.
4. Repave the access roads to the sites.

At first I was a little weary of this place. There is a u-​haul rental right in the front which doesn’t add to the appeal of the place, but after staying a few days I fell in love with the staff and pool. My kids loved it and had a blast. Yes this property is working on improving everything, but we loved it. The store is great– Donna is wonderful and they are kids friendly. I had my son running out into the street and Donna and another staff member always ran out to make sure my son didn’t run into the street. It was appreciated and they never complained. Also the location is great. Publix is close and Walmart is down the street. A gas station is also close. The 5^th star will be added once a few things are added or fixed. Great place I would stay there again. Thanks Donna and Jeff.

This place has a lot of potential. Back in the day I’m sure place was great but it’s rundown now. The pool is nice. No basket ball hoop. No net on tennis court. Jacuzzi is busted. There’s a outdoor gym that looks like a prison gym. I stayed in a room off the pool it was nice and clean. I plan on keeping an eye on this place. I will return if it’s returned to its former glory. Also current management is not kid friendly. I can only assume that this location is geared to snow birds with no kids and no need for a basket ball/​tennis court.

I stayed here for an extended amount of time while I was apartment hunting. This KOA is ready for any traveller. There are a ton of amenities; electric and water hook-​ups, dog walking park, pool, showers, bathrooms, laundry mat, bar, convenient store, tennis court., you know, the works. The staff is very hospitable, they do a great job catering to the campers needs. Probably the biggest complaint people have is the space for RV sites, there a bit close together. Come and check it out, even if your a local, I think you’ll like it.
