Campground Reviews

10/10! I contacted via email a few weeks ahead of our stay and was met with prompt, friendly replies from staff. When we arrived, every interaction with staff was above-and-beyond friendly. We loved our site (O30-31) it was nice and secluded, but near the restrooms and water. Kids had a blast on the jump pad, rock wall, and adventure course, and they loved the craft activity. It was a great trip!

Huge campground with lots of activities. Restrooms and showers in great need of updating (and increased number of stalls/showers). Peacocks were hilarious! We stayed in a tepee (#2) which unfortunately is in the middle of the zip line leaving no close parking. Doug in the office was wonderful, star employee, kind, as well as funny! Give that man a raise, he made our stay top notch!!

We've stayed here 3 times, and have had a great time each time! Some sites are nicer than others, but all good. Lots to do for kids, and relaxing for parents.

We stayed in a safari tent, it was nice. However the mattress were wet, we could not even lay on the mattress bc our clothing would be damp.

The staff was very friendly making our stay very comfortable

It was FANTASTIC. Kids had a great time. Only recommendation is to have a few more pans in the cabins and also more kid friendly activities every day. Wednesday didn’t have any activities and we left on Thursday.

Nice people, nice campground, nice stay!!!

Everything great except for daily sewage smell. Need to sort that out.

The tent sites and the location were beautiful. The trees provided great shade and added levels of privacy. However, for the price, the quality and cleanliness of the amenities was below standard. The bathrooms were not cleaned or fixed for our entire 4 day stay. The showers were falling apart. The prices of the extra activities were VERY high given how much the sites cost per night.

It was a terrific experience. The RV site we stayed at was clean and spacious, I love the activities for the kids. We had such a great time that I already booked for another trip.

This is a great campground. The staff was very friendly and helpful, especially Sarah. Great place to stay with kids and pets.

It was lovely to sleep under the oaks. The campsite was strait forward, no issues. The bathroom la got messy and had some issues. The kids loved the jumpy pillow and playing by the River. The staff was friendly and helpful. It was an easy, fun trip.

The most important part was how friendly and helpful the office staff was. They made the stay special. Bathrooms were very clean. We are excited to make it an annual trip.

The campground is great but the peacocks were awful. Way too many of them and they are obnoxiously loud. For this reason alone, I'm not sure I would stay here again. The kids loved the pool (although still too cold to really enjoy swimming), the jumping area, and bike trails. We did not realize the zip lines etc are open on weekends only. This was disappointing for sure. The employees were great!

Overall pleasant stay. Shor trip. Access and proximity to the river was the saving grace of our stay. Zipline course wasn't an option during our stay. Pool is not heated. Our cabin, although it had a shower, only had warm water for about 2 minutes before turning ice cold. The cabin was well equipped and clean and was perfect for our needs as a family of 4. The kids enjoyed the loft area.

We love staying here! Our campsite was great. The staff was so helpful and kind. We did the ropes course and loved it.

Great time! Friendly staff! Tons of activities for my 11 year old!

The grounds are perfect for kids to explore. Biking, swimming, jumping, looking for tadpoles.. My son and his friends had a blast. Staff is great and helpful. Thank you!

Good customer service. Good amenities. Only concern was that I was charged $15 for zip lining that we never did. There should be better verification fir charges.

We got stuck in an ugly corner spot “Burch 46”. Tall weeds and grass surrounding spot. BBQ had tall weeds around it. Saw numerous other spots where people had piles of excess garbage around trailers. Why is it that we have keep our spots clean which I have no problem doing, when long term visitors have those piles of trash? Not impressed at all. We will never stay at a KOA again

I would come back again. Everything was great. The one thing that was unbearable was the pungent animal urine/feces smell coming out of the vents in our cabin (cp01). It got worse the second night but didn’t think to complain since we were leaving the next morning. We were confused at first also thinking if this was normal; also our first time camping! We were naive.

Loved the campsite. Clean grounds, friendly staff and tons of activities for family

Third year as a family staying at Ventura Ranch. Last year teepee, this year we rented two cabins one with a kitchen. Both are very nice. We are a family with three kiddos age, 6-8. The camp ground feels safe and clean. The youngers do zip line and love it. We do a lot of hiking. Bouncy pillow and painting bird houses fun. Reserved for next year. This is a comfortable family camp ground we love.

First of all, the only reason this isn’t a perfect 10 and I’d be hesitant to recommend to a friend is because of one thing and one thing only….the peacocks. While, beautiful, those loud, annoying birds decided to fight my car in the early morning when it saw its reflection on the door and pecked and clawed the entire side of our brand new car, causing $1,500 of damage. Everything else was am

One of the best KOA. Staff friendly and efficient. Awesome facilities. Everything was perfect from checking in to check out. We will be back.

Fabulous, staff very friendly and grounds were very tidy. Boys loved the jumping pillow and bigfoot area. Will definitely back. I am now a Koa rewards member :)

No laundry - most stuff was closed

So, I booked in advance as a bargain to motel for a business trip. I stayed in the Oaks area. When I arrived checked in earl as a courtesy when traveling so that was a big plus..When I got to the campsite I called and said there's a Boulder blocking road to camp site. They said you can move it if want to park at lot away from campsite. So why should I pay a high price for boulders blocks all areas

We had a good time. I would like to say the only problem is the maintenance on the campgrounds. The bathrooms weren’t cleaned regularly, one of the teepees my family member stayed in was broke. This should be fixed prior to anyone coming in to rent for the price you charge. I do think your prices are a little high for water/electric only. $75 would be the highest I would pay.

Very nice

My 4 year old was asleep in the tent next to our tear drop trailer when a woman in a golf cart came over with a flashlight shining it inside the tent. It was 10pm. Not only was it scary, but also completely inappropriate to do at 10pm. She said that it was stated on the website when we booked but we reviewed all info and there was NO mention of tents not being allowed. This should not have happen
Jun 12, 2023
When we arrived, we were given a site all the way at the bottom of the campground and had to drive through low hanging trees that scraped the roof and top of our RV. We went back to the office and ask for a closer site. They changed our site for an extra fee. Campground looked very run down, bathrooms filthy, lots of people living full time there, and very loud wild peacocks all over.
Jun 12, 2023
Loved all of the activities. Particularly the adventure course. But cleaning needs work. The bathroom in the Oaks wasn’t cleaned during our stay. And there were piles of litter left adjacent to our “premium” campsite.
Jun 12, 2023
Great!
Jun 12, 2023
Bathrooms need more attention. Don't think anyone cleaned them while I stayed. Same stains were on sink/toilets and shower trash never cleaned out. So I know no one every cleaned them.
Jun 12, 2023
teepee's were nice Campround was dirty. Trash everywhere Teepees leaked from the top and the sides. With rain in the forecast there was no instructions from staff about how to minimize getting wet. front flap had no good closure system. The ties could only really be tied them from the outside. Flap stayed open or you had to tie it from the outside and contort yourself and squeeze in

What a fun place! We loved all the peacocks and the spots were great - We wish we had a spot with sewer hookups and it was a tad tight for our huge trailer... but over all it was fantastic and it's a beautiful area! Thank you!

Not up to par for a KOA

Our stay was stupendous! We can't remember the names of the entire staff we encountered but "great" began with Carol! Alexis & Sarah, too! The store is filled with things you need & things you'll love. The site was fantastic. The grounds are gorgeous & well maintained. Can't say enough about the staff. And love the peacocks & hens!! One of our best CG's! Be back soon! Great location close to Ventura Harbor, Ojai & downtown Santa Paula.!

This was our second visit to this RV campground. The place is so relaxing and peaceful. There are cool peacocks roaming, the staff is incredibly nice and friendly and the store/ office is open late if you need something.
