Campground Reviews

We stayed in a tent site with 3 kids and a baby. The site was fine for what we needed and nice and close to the park. The kids had a blast at the playground, in the pool, playing golf and crafting. We had such a good time we will come again!

We took our children to Hayward KOA and now we take the grandchildren! Always enjoy our time there!

Couple of oddities. Windows in deluxe cabin would not stay up. Door to bathroom would not lock or even close all the way. Awkward!

The koa was a great place to stay.

We enjoyed our stay. The wood you buy is a bit disappointing as it’s wet, so doesn’t burn very well. Tubing was very fun, pool was great, kids enjoyed the jumping pillow (glad that is included in our stay) and the slide was really fun! (Wish that was included in the stay too)

Booking was easy. The camping and deluxe cabins were as described and had everything we needed. Check in was equally easy. Staff were all pleasant and helpful. Brian (manager) and all staff went above and beyond to keep everything in tip-top shape. I was especially impressed they had a dog play area and how well all the dogs in the campground were received and were well behaved!

We have been coming for many years. We have stayed in KL9 for the past 2 years. This year it was extremely dirty when we arrived. Also, the pull-out couch needs to be replaced it is virtually unusable to sleep on. There were only 2 trash bags in the entire cabin we had to ask for more twice. When you have 6 people staying in a cabin for 4-5 nights we need more trash bags, please.

Unfortunately after staying at this KOA for nearly 25 years this was our first year ever not rebooking for the next year Prices have gotten too high, not seeing revenue go back into the park, new minimal tubing schedule left our group of 15 just one chance to tube where in years past we would have tubed 2x a day during our week at the park. Any lastly we experienced rude interactions with staff

Employees are awesome, lots to do but this year no children games which was sad. Movie night was so fun. We’ve been coming here for 13 years and it never disappoints

Love the river tubing, family volleyball games, family water fights. Prices are high for a tent site. People kept walking through our site and left garbage and cigarette butts in our site.

Our family always has a great time here because of the people you employ! The attention to detail for a campground is second to none and we will be back for another adventure soon.

Great time for the kids and adults! Lots to do for everyone.

Told incorrect time for canoeing, waited an hour and the person in the office was rude to me about it. Tried to go tubing but they wouldn’t accommodate our group of 8 but they were willing to bend the rules for a group of 40. Kids were told they had to leave early from the air hockey table but it’s ok to still play basketball? Just disappointing after we’ve come here for so many years.

Great time for the kids

We always enjoy our stay. The park is clean and friendly. Only improvement requested would be better Wi-Fi.

Awesome as usual

We really enjoyed our stay, our number one reason we would go back is that there was literally no mosquitoes!!! I am not sure if the area is just like that or if they treat for it but it made camping so much more enjoyable !!! All of the other amenities were nice, our kids had an amazing time! With lots of activities and things to do to keep them busy!

I was dissapointed. A very high rate of $85/night, pre tax and fees. Not a blade of grass on my site and several other sites which made for a mess especially when it rained. Would never do it again!

This is one of the largest KOA campgrounds anywhere, very nice, lots to do. One thing I didn’t like, too much sand and dirt, hard to keep the dirt out of the camper. Some grass or a pad would have been good. Also, a couple kids zipping around on a large 4 wheeler. This was at least a 500, full size for an adult, yet two kids 10-13 year old zipping around, why was that allowed.

Just wonderful staff to work with. Friendly and efficient at providing help. We had a spot for our RV up front near the pool area and putt-putt (as well as the trampoline) and it was pleasant to hear happy young people splashing, bouncing and playing. Just a treat! The snack shop staff make wonderful food and it was just a lovely week. Thank you!

As always we had an amazing time. The only problem we had was we brought our new dog camping with us. She does bark a bit. One of the workers came and told us some people had complained about her barking. He was very nice, and didn´t say we had to leave or anything. But this caused me some anxiety knowing people were complaining, so we had to drive her 1.5 hours each way to my sister´s. :(

Overall the people working the campground were very nice . We normally stay 8 days and in the past they would have wristbands good for 7days for one price for tubing down the river, water slide. Now you have to pay every time you go which can be expensive with grandkids and their parents but we do like the campground

We had a great stay as always. Lots of stuff for the kids to do, friendly staff, clean campground. The only change I might suggest is for the Bigfoot golf cart to slow down when they are driving around the campground to squirt water. There were many times I almost witnessed a collision between them and kids. Other parents had the same worry. Thanks again for a great stay!

No Mosquitoes! YaY!

We had a fabulous time at the KOA Hayward this past week! Even though it was extremely busy 4th of July week the whole Campground was run with precision and excellence! Staff is over the top friendly, caring, respectful, helpful in any way possible which is refreshing to see!! Everything was as clean as it possibly could be with so many people there at once. We would highly recommend this KOA!

We had a great time. Lots of activities for the whole family. The restrooms and showers could use an upgrade. Also additional restrooms in the furthers part of the campground would be helpful. Thanks to all the staff.

Very nice stay. Especially liked the shuttle to rafting. We got yelled at for not paying for the water slide. We didn't see any signs indicating the slide was an extra charge. It should be more clearly marked.

We arrived to a very crabby lady at the entrance telling us we had to go to our site (I was checking us in my husband was in the truck. How can we go to a site when we have not checked in yet). The people in the office were a bit friendlier then the first lady. We did go to the Red Pine cafe to mozzarella sticks made in the microwave. Ice cream only is my suggestion. Pool was good.

Beautiful campgrounds, the only downside is the sites are to close together for bigger rigs. There should be sites larger for them.
Jul 05, 2023
Campground was over-crowded Sites were way too close together--should have been half as many sites Neighbors routinely walked through our campsite--very rude
Jul 05, 2023
So much fun! We're sure to come again!
Jul 05, 2023
Very tight sites. Worked out fine. No grass on site. Old amenities, for the cost would’ve thought updates could be good.

New management, same great experience. Facilities are clean and well maintained. Lots of activities and the online communication prevents you from missing out on anything.

Busy weekend being just before July 4th. Attendants did a good job keeping bathrooms clean but ran out of towels and soap.

This was our 4th consecutive 4th of July weekend staying at the KOA since we got our travel trailer. We love it there and our now 9 year old daughter has had a great time every year. She was a little disappointed that the scavenger hunt, bike parade, and movie in the field were not happening. Also, it seems like other activities weren't as in years past.

All was great. Cabins were clean as well as bathrooms. People were friendly. Thank you!

The staff and everyone we encountered was very friendly and helpful. The kids loved the freedom of biking around the campground and exploring. They also really enjoyed the activities. The night time movie was a favorite! My kids want to go back already!

This KOA is very nice clean and lots for the kids to do. Sites are really tight. Firepits are small and so close to motorhome that we felt it was unsafe to use. The only thing I would recommend is for staff golfcarts to use road or designated paths instead of cutting through sites as it shows others its ok. We had numerous adults and kids constantly cutting through our site which caused our dogs to bark alot. We also had ATVs pull up right in the front of our motorhome on our site and get out and carry on their conversations while we were sitting there which I felt was extremely rude being we are paying for the site. This KOA is close to town which makes it very convenient.
