Kampgrounds of America / KOA Franchise

Kampgrounds of America (KOA) is a franchise chain of nearly 470 campgrounds throughout North America based in Billings, Montana, USA. Dave Drum started Kampgrounds of America in 1961. He and other Billings, Montana, businessmen set up camping facilities off highways 87 and 212 in 1962, when the World's Fair in Seattle was attracting tourists along those routes. KOA campgrounds offer hot showers, clean restrooms, laundry facilities, convenience stores, swimming pools, and playgrounds. Eight of every 10 KOA campgrounds are within 100 miles of a metropolitan area, and some offer economical lodging for tourist destinations.
