COTA RV Park

The staff was incredible. I was attending the MotoAmerica motorcycle races. Check in was easy. Information provided was very helpful. It was my first visit to COTA but not my last. Pool was refreshing, bathrooms and showers clean. Coming from Virginia I was very tired, friendly staff, smiles and good cheer made for a great experience.

I don't want to leave a glowing review because I don't want more people to stay here. It too many people start staying here there won't be room for me next year for the WEC race. Seriously it's an awesome park and the guest facilities are super clean. The park itself is immaculate.

Our "2nd stay" here at COTA was also an awesome experience! |We attended the Stick Figure Stephen Marley,concert, and had a blast!|We stay here because the atmosphere is friendly and always attentive to your needs! There is a small store, with small stuff to purchase, and next-door is a washer and dryer to do your laundry. Next to it, are three shower stalls, (one handicap accessible) and three bathroom stalls, for men and women. We will definitely come back to stay at COTA.

I've now stayed three times in the "Premium RV" section with full hook-ups. The concrete pad is nice and level, plenty of room to fit a full size Class A, or even a 45 foot 5th wheel. The main downside is that these spots are designed to be pull-in, so if you decide to back your RV in, you will find that the hook-ups will be on the wrong side. This isn't a huge deal, but kind of a bummer for those with RV's that have a back patio that can be unfolded. You miss the ability to use that. Also, if you do choose to back-in, the hang-out side of your RV will be overlapping with the hangout side of your neighbor that decided to pull-through so it's best to only back in if you know the people to your left, otherwise it will be awkward. The view down the back straight (between turn 11 and turn 12) is fun, but you need to get some height to see over the wall. Standing on the roof of your RV works, or if you have a truck that you can back up to the fence to stand in the back of you're good. Otherwise you can't really see anything from the ground. The camp offered WiFi but it was not useable at all. This may be unique to the times I've stayed, but I didn't find the wireless to be in a state that I could use it. One of the cool features is that you can bring a long coax cable and hook up to the closed circuit channels that are exclusive to the track and get them on the TVs in your RV. There are live timing channels, and the live camera feed from the track broadcast. My main complain about this part (not a camping thing) is that they don't have coverage for all the events on the schedule for whatever reason. Only the big premier races are shown on those channels. The smaller, side-show/warm-up races are never shown there. Bummer. The Pool is a nice feature at the end of the day after walking 10 miles in and around the track it can feel good to relax in the pool during those hot days. I would love to see a hot tub added. The campground offers bags of ice, but only during office hours. I would love to see a system that would allow campers to buy ICE after-hours. It would also be nice to see some other camping items that people may have forgotten, or ran out of like, milk, water, sodas, ketchup, mayo, mustard, etc.. Especially water. We seem to always be running out of water. One of my biggest gripes and the reason why I just can't give this a 5 star review is the fact that every time I have gone (3 times) the access from the Premium RV Spots to get into the track is ridiculous. There is a nice road/sidewalk that goes under the tunnel into the track that heads over to the Paddock, but they NEVER let RV people use that entrance. They make you walk ALL the way around to the front entrance to get into the track. With all the construction going on currently and if there is a concert that is not related to the event you're attending you may find (like we did) that there was NO safe way to get to the front entrance from the RV park even if you wanted to walk three miles. You have to uber, or hope you can fit everyone into a car. But then, expect to pay for parking! Sometimes they offer shuttles (trams) which is helpful, but not at every event. Especially the smaller events like MotoAmerica, or SRO/GT America. You're left walking at least a mile to get into the track, then another mile to get back to your RV at the end of the day. I don't understand why there isn't an entrance for the RV'ers. Give the campers wrist bands or something that lets them use different entrances/exits. Suggestions for improvement: * Better track access * Bleacher section for Campers to watch races * Outdoor large format TVs for Campers to keep up with race

While not my 1st visit to COTA, it was my 1st using the RV Camping area. My rig is self contained so I didn't need the facilities but knowing there is full bathrooms with showers, laundry and a pool was a welcome if needed. We did use the pool after a hot day of riding on the track! Jade provided exceptional explanations and along with security, very helpful providing me assistance removing a padlock from my RV after I locked my keys inside...ooof! Only advice is to check your arrival times as the Elroy gate can be closed early requiring arrival from the main gate.

Great place to stay. Track side spots. Clean, quiet (except for race cars) and the staff is awesome. I will stay again soon!

Have been wanting to visit COTA since it was built. Had the opportunity to stay at the rv park. What a great facility. Nice level paved pads with full hookups. Clean restrooms, showers and laundry. Enjoyed watching the race cars practice.
