For KOA Journey Reno Boomtown: First time RV’er for me. I enjoyed Boomtown KOA for the most part. The water spicket did leak a little bit, but nothing major. My biggest gripe would be that the Boomtown Casino is quite a ways away if you wanted to walk there. They do have shuttle service to and from, but you catch the shuttle van at the office near the entrance of KOA. The casino about 1/2 mile or so from the KOA and all up hill at that. If Boomtown planned it better, they should have open some roads/trails from the KOA property to the Casino. If they did that, they are practically next door to each other property wise.
Campground seems to be picked up from what I could tell. Yes, there are kids that play around, but for a family friendly campground, shouldn’t that be normal?

For KOA Journey Reno Boomtown: I agree with most of the other reviews. Trash does overflow and kids run around being kids. We've been here for work almost 3 months.no electricity/water issues although our spigot has leaked since we've been here and hasn't been repaired. Overall, staff has been friendly/helpful but they could spend less time smoking and more time picking up trash/dog waste. The sites here are very close to each other but overall, it's been quiet.

For KOA Journey Reno Boomtown: Being new to the rv park scene, we are learning that KOA means substandard in almost every way. We'd been at bordertown rv for three days as we traveled around the area. It's august in reno, so we have to leave at least one or two A/Cs on for the cats while we're gone. No problem at Bordertown. Every time we get back, it's like a meat locker in the bus. Move to koa, plug in, even put awnings out, and head out for a couple of hours. Get back and A/Cs are cycling so low, compressor can't kick on. Fortunately, we're well insulated and had awnings out, otherwise - cooked kitties. Don't sell 50 amp if you can't supply it. We could be parked free at the cabelas next door since we have to run the generator anyway.
And of course the blowing trash, kids running all over unsupervised, etc mentioned in the other reviews.

For KOA Journey Reno Boomtown: I have stayed at KOA's from Florida to here and this is the most unfriendly one yet. My husband and I stayed here last year for 4 months while I worked in town and back then it wasn't the greatest. This stay was only about 6 weeks before we were completely fed up and moved to another RV park. The 2 older ladies up front were always short and rude. Destiny was the only one who was friendly. They turned the water off all day. No biggie right we are in a 5th wheel and could have filled up our fresh water tanks but the failed to tell anyone and just posted a note at the office. So if you don't go up there how would you know. The grounds of the park need work and the grass is brown in most spots. They do have sprinklers but they have them coming on at the worst times when people are out in the green space. Trash is littered all over the place and some people don't even pick after there kids. The dog walk area smell disgusting. Also the dumpsters are usually overflowing weekly. My husband witnessed an attempted break in of a rig and it took 3 separate people calling to get security there. The last straw is as our rows electrical breaker kept tripping a few times daily for 2 weeks and we didn't feel comfortable leaving our dog behind. Most of there issues can be resolved and I hope they will be. But for now at about $48 a day this place is not worth it.

For KOA Journey Reno Boomtown: Stayed at Boomtown KOA during Hot August Nights 2016. Had no water pressure my sight had running water all over from underground pipes leaking in various parts of the park. Management ignored my complaint.

For KOA Journey Reno Boomtown: Nice overnight close to Casino and Cabela's. We stayed in a 34 foot motorhome. A lot of full timers
