Campground Reviews

Sep 02, 2022
We generally do not stay at KOA campgrounds, and I wish I had not stayed at this one. It was actually insulting to pay a premium price, including two pet fees, to stay in an essentially empty campground. This, coupled with the constant road traffic and freight train noise made the experience all the more unpleasant. We will not be back.

Close to town, great space with plenty of spacing between coach’s, we were parked along shaded area with mature trees shade most spaces. The bathroom were very clean and newly remodeled. We can see where large areas with new concrete pads and landscaped are being added.

Very impressed with spaciousness, quality of facilities, location near river and attractions in town. We walked to the hot springs. A little noisy near highway and railroad but overall a great place to stay!

Places was great other then road and train noise which you can’t control and still less then the other KOA I stayed at. Excellent front desk service and check in and staff always friendly!

This was advertised as a pull through site. However, due to the high curbing around the site, it took significant manuevering to get my 39' RV into this site. I would not recommend paying $100/night for a site that isn't easy to get in and out of. False Advertising.

I was very disappointed with the workers and the campsite. The campsite was so unlevel that my front tires were off the ground more than 6 inches!! The ground sewer pipe had been run over so much that we couldn't connect our sewer hose! As far as the workers, they seemed as though I was a bother to them than a customer. I had to ask twice for ice to be delivered. Not customer friendly!

Great campground that is well kept. The only challenge is the trains going up and down the canyon all day and night. Difficult to sleep.

The park is very nice and well maintained.The problem is it is next to a highway where semi trucks run including at night. If that wasn’t bad enough on the other side of the highway is train tracks that run trains at least every 2 hours. We counted one with 151 cars. We saw that the park was 12 miles away from the main highway 15 so assumed it would be quiet. WRONG

Very nice campground. Clean, well maintained, and friendly staff. Walking distance to very charming town of Lava Hot Springs. Stayed two nights in a travel trailer, back-in full hookup, concrete parking pad, mostly level, backed up to the river and waterfall, very nice. Campground is next to a busy road and nearby busy train tracks. Truck and train traffic noise was quickly normalized.

Jim is the man! He genuinely cared about my stay and if I felt the campsite was adequate. He was knowledgeable about the local activities, also helped me out with a cup full of ice!

I would not recommend this campsite for TENT only camping. Cabins and most likely trailers are great! I've previously stayed in the cabins and it was perfect. The tent site however was EXTREMELY noisy (trains, highway, cars going through the site etc) and small. The amenities were great though! Beautiful clean bathrooms, nice little park and close to everything!

Glad that your stays in the cabin and RV have been enjoyable. Unfortunately we can't control the train or highway noise. We do offer free ear plugs at the office. Guests feel that the trains are either an ambience are an annoyance.

Campground facilities and grounds was very well maintained. Our spot however was a little tight for our motorhome had very little sitting area, had we been there longer would have preferred a larger spot, overall had a great time.

Thank you for your rating. In the future we recommend booking sites 96 through 212 if more space is desired.

The campground is well maintained. The upper area where we stayed had curbs and grass “lawns”. The sites are level (especially 204, it seemed to be the absolute best site). All utilities worked well. Bathrooms were super clean. And we had great service from Verizon. The KOA is just a short walk to town and the hot springs itself.

It was nice and they had lots of shade. Night time had train noise but worked thru it since not much they could do

All the amenities were awesome. The staff are a bit young and when we approached them regarding a very verbally loud fight amongst a bunch of drunk adults (not young) that happened between midnight and 2am the night before, we were just told, “thanks for bringing it to our attention”. We even gave them the site number and even told them that was the reason we did not extend our stay with the

We thought the campground was very nice, but we’re disappointed with the little cabin. We have stayed at several and were bummed to see no porch swing, or refrigerator. The picnic table looked unsafe and the ac unit didn’t work. Fortunately my handy guy husband cleaned and fixed it, but it took an hour. It was also right by a very busy road.

Beautiful setting next to the river, clean and helpful staff. Only drawback is the noisy road and train right next to the site.
