Can someone correct me. I though all but a few KOA's were locally owned. It is a franchise like holiday inn's were and BurgerKings, McDonnell's. I say that because all the ones I have stayed at were. And when I checked into it few years ago about owning one. They sent me the package. And it was definitely private owned but contract of the standards to be maintained and finance help it needed. But all fees charged would be mine. But with franchise fee's due.

But there were some big ones in high dollar areas that were KOA owned and managed.

PS.. Have stayed in that Cherokee KOA at Cherokee NC (Smokey Mountains) Had good time freaking the Vietnamese's employee's out every time I heard them talking down the dumb Americans in their language. After all these Years found out I could still speak and understand it. But the Park was great and they had a free bus shuttle.
