East side of Amarillo, just off I-40, TX
Amarillo KOA Journey
Our take
A frustrating Panhandle overnight. They told us at check-in not to plug the truck in, no EV charging allowed, so the Rivian sat all night and we paid for a Tesla charge at the Buc-ee's 5 mi south the next morning instead. The lot is bare dirt, the staff are fussy about exactly how you position the rig, and the sewer hookup is placed where a normal hose will not reach. See the heads-up below. Functional in a pinch, not one we would book again or send a group to.
Heads upNo EV charging allowed, they told us at check-in, the moment we pulled in, not to plug the truck in. We ended up paying for a Tesla charge at the Buc-ee's down the road the next morning. It's also all dirt, the rules say stay off the grass but there is no grass, it's dirt everywhere. Staff are very specific about how you position the rig in the spot, yet the sewer hookup sits where you cannot reach it without about a 50-foot hose. Bring a long sewer hose and patience.
