This was our first time here and we will absolutely be back. The campground was clean and quite. The staff was friendly and willing to chat at any time, and lend a hand when needed. Bathrooms were surprisingly clean. I mean, they were really clean. Overall, this was a great experience and I can't wait to get back there.

We like staying at the East KOA. It's convenient and close to town. Camp site and facilities are clean. Do wish there there were more access to the river, but still a short walk.

The cute deluxe cabin we stayed in was so functional! We loved being so close to everything in town and having a bathroom in the cabin. We had an issue with the heat not turning off, but management was diligent about fixing it and even brought in an electrician to get it sorted out, then gave us a partial reimbursement for the trouble. Great staff! Great experience overall.

No early check in; load road and train noise

Great stay except for cotton trees! When making my reservations I should have been given better information.

We loved it! Will be back for sure.

Quite, clean, and the view of the mountains are just eye opening. Very respectable

Pets in the deluxe cabin would be nice. Probably wont be able to stay again without my dog.

Great spot and friendly staff!

The camp facilities are great. The restrooms and showers are clean and so much better than one would expect at a camp ground. The laundry room was an unexpected surprise with coin operated washers and dryers. The camp ground was close to the hot springs, the swimming pool, and downtown shopping and eateries, as well as a few reservoirs for fishing.

It would be helpful if there were more trash bags in the bottom of the cans for trash. We had to take out the trash once and there were not any more bags so we just kept walking to the dumpster. The mattresses could be better. My wife and I had to sleep feet to head so the mattress didn't dip. Other than that, it was clean, convenient, and close to all the activities. We enjoyed the fire pit and v

Thank you for taking the time to write us a great review.

Very nice, very clean and well landscaped, super friendly staff. A little noisy because of being close to the highway (trucks running their jake brakes and passing trains) but not much can be done about that since they run through the entire valley of Lava. I felt that the bathhouse/laundry by our site could have been better ventilated, but overall would stay again and we had a fun day in Lava.

Everyone was very nice and helpful and the grounds were immaculate and the grounds personnel are always working so hard! The scenery and the local town was so quaint and the Lava Hot Springs are a must, you owe it to yourself! Unfortunately we only stayed 2 nights, I will be back for more!!! I have been on the road for a few months now and stayed at 12 different RV parks and this is the best.

Your KOA is one of the nicest that we have ever been to and we have been to several around the United States. We will be back at some point in the future.

Too many loose dogs, called office to find out why. They pretty much said there wasn’t anything they could do. Then why have a policy for dogs must be in leash???

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We appreciate your endurance of this bad experience due to loose dogs. We do apologize! We are in the process of a resolution.

We stayed in a cabin that did not have a bathroom or sink. The cabin was clean and spacious, but it was located next to the highway and the train and truck traffic was extremely loud. We would not stay at the cabins near the road again due to the noise. A water kettle to boil water would be useful. We tried to get coffee at front desk on our way out, but it was not ready by 8 am when we left.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your comments. As we don't provide dishes in our camping cabins, but we do have hot water at the office that is always available and the camp kitchen has a stovetop in which all guests are welcome to use if its not rented for a specific guest.

Nice park
Jun 06, 2022
It was a fun stay..the bed was on an angle so we had to turn around and sleep with our heads at the foot of the bed. Which wasn't that bad...so all in all not bad. I would stay again!

Very clean and nice. The staff was helpful and our stay was excellent. The camp is in walking distance of town and the hot springs. We where able to set up camp and walk to everything else.

This wasn't my favorite spot — it's very crowded and a little louder than other spots we have stay out with the train tracks and highway right there. It is really close to main street in Lava which was really nice. The hosts were SUPER nice.
Jun 05, 2022
The setting is beautiful right on the river. Camp was clean. The trains woke us up several times in the night. The site next to us had probably 20 people crammed into it and they were very loud and drunk until around 11.

Campground was very clean and well maintained. We appreciate that very much. Thank you for good Wi-Fi and an enjoyable stay.

A beautiful part of the country! Clean and quiet with the sound of happy families enjoying each other.
Jun 03, 2022
It was after a holiday, so the campground was less than half full and quiet. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The town in small but there are things to see, do and explore.

We love Lava Hot Springs and the hosts and people who work there. So awesome!!

Nice campground with friendly staff and gorgeous scenery. The patio sites are very nice but also very tight to get in and out of. Overall a good place to stay.
Jun 01, 2022
The cabin was nice, and it had a great view of the river. The only downside was that the Wi-Fi was nonexistent. We never were able to get a signal.

We love Lava and love this campground. It’s nice and clean and so close to everything. We walk everywhere.

It was great and wonderful.

Sites are nice. Patio is good. Price is too high for location and amenities.

We stayed in L46 and patio is facing the river. Very nice night bbq and fire pit experience. Close by train tracks and freeway is the downside though. The cabin was very clean and cozy. Kids loved the bunk beds.

The cabins are very cozy, close to the Portneuf river across from the cabins. It runs by some great RV parking spots looking at that river. I gave them 2 stars for service because no one is around Monday to Thursday, along with limited working hours Friday- Sunday. If you want something, you have to get in your vehicle and drive about a mile away to their other office in a different area of town. I find that ridiculous or even worse, asinine, not sure what the owner was thinking of that concept. Everything else was great. Some people might have other opinions about driving away to check out, they should have a drop box located around the office area to drop off the keys where we were staying at, instead of us driving to the other location drop it off, I found that to be very inconvenience for us.
