We reserved a patio site; it would have been nice if they had blown the leaves and spider webs of the patio furniture. It is a very nice rustic campground, It does need some TLC on the roads. They should lower there prices in the winter since they had no amenities available at this time.t They were extremely friendly .

Beautiful campground! Too bad it rained on us…would have stayed longer. We will be back soon. The store attendants were beyond helpful. They were nice and made us feel very welcome.

Always love our stay here. The grounds are looking nice. Missed having Corn Hole. A bit disappointed that the kids' new year's actives were done during the day on 12/30. But that won't stop us from coming again. The friendly staff and scenery will always have us coming back. Love you guys!

This Park was disappointing. Arrived at 4:15p, office was closed, after hours checkin process in place. Sites were poorly maintained, roads throughout the park crumbling. In two days, did not see a single KOA person working inside the park, among the sites, or just checking up on things. This park has a very unique layout and has potential but it is below normal KOA standards currently.

This was our 2nd time staying over Thanksgiving with family in sites nearby. We love it. We utilized 2 sites next to each other, 1 site just below and 1 cabin. It was perfect. We parked head in with our motorhome and our daughters fam backed in their trailer. We had a beautiful common space between us. We were told head in was not allowed, and they let us slide this time. Can this rule be changed?

We stay at Santa Margarita KOA a few times throughout the year. Our stays are always a pleasure. Cabins are clean, staff is very friendly and accommodating, camp ground is clean. This is a great place to get away.

Nice cabin (#31) but has a shared wall with another cabin and we could hear every noise bang and step their 2 year old made, I will only stay here again if a stand along cabin is available. Shower in the cabin was unavailable due to extremely low water pressure, KOA completely refunded my $175 fee for this issue so we really appreciated that. This KOA site is nice, clean and well kept

Probably the nicest site we had on our 2 week odyssey through central California. Too bad we arrived late and had to leave early. Our site was at the top of the campground. It’s sitting on a hill but was somehow one of the most level sites of our trip.

Such a beautiful place to relax and enjoy with friends & families. Santa Margarita KOA was quiet, environments were well maintained, friendly staff and enough spaces for each camp site.

Kids lived the bouncing pillow Our site was narrow, neighbors septic hookup was right at our picnic table. Roads and sites very dusty

Very relaxing weekend getaway!

All as advertised! Clean, well organized facilities and a very nice environment. It is close to many Central Coast activities as well.

It was a amazing, super friendly, quiet, and clean. We enjoyed the activities for the kids also, you don’t see many camping areas with kid friendly activities. We will definitely be returning, and letting family and friends know about this!

Very nice,staff was excellent

Staff was super friendly and helpful; they let us know all the cool activities we could do there. Clean campsites, good access to super clean bathrooms! Our favorite was the disc golf course attached to the KOA and the cute antiquing downtown if you want to venture out of the campground. Shout out to Daisy at the office who was super cool and made us feel welcome. This place gained new regulars!

My husband and I love Santa Margarita KOA. We've been vacationing there for years. We stayed in cabin #31 this time, everything was great. The only caveat was the shower. The on demand water heater stopped providing hot water within minutes and we'd have to step out to turn on the hot water to the sink per the directions on the door. The water pressure was extremely low as well. Not a deal breaker

OMG best staff EVER!!!!!! DAISY, MICHELL, LISA were SO attentive and helpful as well as Wolf and Brandy. The outside worker fellas (sorry don't know names) were always ready with a smile and a 'good morning'!

Thank you so much for the kind words! We enjoyed having you stay with us.

It was nice to get away, but I also needed to work and it was too remote for Internet. There is a Wi-Fi connection at the campground but it was very bad. This campground has a lot of twisty dirt roads on several elevations. It may be difficult to maneuver a larger RV in there. Also, not KOA’s fault, but the flies were horrible, we couldn’t stay outside for long. Also a skunk invaded our campsi

Great stay, this time site 57 stayed but Firday 330 talking and Saturday night it was 430 they went to bed. Saundra’s morning I picked up candy wrappers and some pistachios shell they weren’t very respective of the camp grounds. We decided not to call the after hours number, because they need their rest to keep this beautiful campground clean. Looking forward to our next stay. Thank you and Go

Was für ein Traum. Das ist für uns der schönste ruhepol den es gibt. Wir waren schon öfter hier und würden immer wieder kommen. Der Weh lohnt sich!

Karen, Daisy, and Michele were amazing. We had a Family event and these ladies went out of their way to help me and my family and gave us a seamless and amazing experience. Definitely planning my next reunion here. Thank you so much!
