Taney KOA is History?

[Aeronikl]

I know they were sold over the winter, and the rumor was the new owner was building condos there, but they told me in January that they would remain a campground for at least the next year. When I called today to make reservations for a June trip, surprise, I got Chastain's RV park at the old KOA number, and was told they were building condos, now, at the old site. Is the old campground completely closed, or is the new owner operating some of the campground sites? Is the entire property being converted? Anyone know anything? I sure hate to see the only lakeside campground near the dam gone for good. If that is progress, they can have it.

That's what I heard. The whole thing. Guess we'll have to come up with a new name.. again.

Thanks, Phil for the fast response. Is the Cooper Creek Resort the closest campground to the dam, right on the lake now? Is there any other access to the south side of the lake, near the dam, now that the KOA is gone?

[Phil Lilley]

Just the road from the dam- south side- down to rocking chair.

Maybe somebody should tell Leonard. I think he's having a fish-in this week and they might be planning on staying at KOA.

Snagged.
