Very clean and well maintained. Only minor downside is it's next to a freeway so it's a bit noisy.
Oct 02, 2017
loved it

The park was neat and clean, the bad thing was the highway noise.

Unprofessional staff, grounds need cleaning, most buildings are 1970's mobile homes that should be removed, won't stay there again.

It is a typical KOA. The sights are small and space around back-in sights is tight making it a little difficult to get into the sight.

Friendly, helpful staff. Toilets and showers were clean, but a little tattered. WiFi needs help. It is slow..when it works. KOA should have an idea about how many Internet users might be expected and accommodate that. The recreation room was very tired. Pool cues had no tips or totally slick and shiny. One of the campers ran a generator most of the night. Quite a bit of highway noise.

Very clean and we'll maintained. This is not camp sight however. It is a RV park. The spots are very tight and campfires are not permitted.

absolutely beautiful campground. We r hoping to make reservations (3) for 2-3 nights in July 2018 for our younger son's wedding. I was told by kamp hosts that October would be the soonest that I could try for the reservations. I will be calling on Oct. 01, 17 to make reservations. Only real inconveniece for us was there isn't pet area. We had to walk the dog on street
Sep 25, 2017
Sites way too tight no room to put awning out without being in neighbor's site. The cost unreasonable for this place. Have been in koa's from MN. to CA & this the least desirable unfortunately.
Sep 25, 2017
Narrow sites and the wifi wouldn't stay connected but otherwise very nice. We enjoyed the dog walk area and the outdoor amenities.
Sep 25, 2017
With 2 kids in tow, the entire stay ended up an amazing experience for all!
Sep 25, 2017
Enjoyed having a spot right next the playground for our young kids. Pool was nice and thankfully heated. Enjoyed the outdoor movie! Loved the close-by trail that we biked to the beach. We'll be back!

$3.00. Nice pool and Jacuzzi and other fun things.
Sep 24, 2017
The staff was friendly. However, they had me in a backup space just wide enough to open my slide outs and difficult to maneuver into with my 42 foot fifth wheel. There were plenty of pull through spaces but allegedly not available. I made reservations a month in advance.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We only have 6 pull thrus in the park. There are sites that back up to each other that may look like a pull thru but are actually 2 sites. If someone requests a pull thru and it is available, we will accommodate the guest.

Friendly helpful staff. Clean facilities. Wonderful pool. Excellent meal on the pier a few miles away.
Sep 23, 2017
Poor tv. No internet except briefly. Not coming back.
Sep 22, 2017
We have stayed at Avila KOA several times. Mark and Debra are gracious hosts and the staff are always friendly and helpful. We plan to stay there a couple times a year. Very satisfied customers !!
Sep 22, 2017
My stay was great but when we arrived and wanted to check in we were not greeted very kindly. I understand policy and we were a little early but the lady at the front was very rude to tell me that check-in wasn't until 3, which was fine we had joined my family that were already there camping. The staff needs to work on there attitude. The gentleman was very kind when we finally check in

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Check-in for RV's is 1pm and Cabin Check-in is 3pm. The guest arrived 3 hours early and without the policy in place, it would be chaos with people coming and going at the same time.

The gravel hurt my dogs feet
Sep 20, 2017
Always love my Stay...But I see the Staff Changed AGAIN. When I arrived at 12 pm the Lady some what Rudely said I couldn't check in till 3.I didn't see what the couple hours difference was? The Pool Rules also stated no children under 14 in Spa.Some ignorant parents continued to let there children play in the Spa and no staff did anything about it.All in All I still love KOA .

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

As stated, guest arrived at 12pm and the cabin was not ready. Check-in for cabins is 3pm and check-in for RV's is 1pm. The management has been here for 1 year, and we have had to enforce the check-in time as too many people were showing up before the previous night guests had left the park. In fairness to everyone....check-in for RV's is 1pm and Cabins is 3pm. Thank you for your stay.

Nobody enforces the curfew or quiet time at night. My neighbors stayed up till 2 am and I had to deal with it all night long.

Great stay. Nice hosts, clean cabin. Community areas we very thoughtfully planned out. Great community activities: movie nights, pancake mornings. We enjoyed our stay and plan on returning. thank you!

Very nice park
Sep 19, 2017
They were SO helpful and nice! The place was super clean and so amenities. Loved the free wine tasting in Saturday evening (wish all KOAs did this!) the siteare narrow but we've been in worse. There is a bit of occasional silver smell, but I think it's from the hot springs ha next door. Overall great trip!
Sep 19, 2017
Spaces seem much smaller than they used to be but the park is very clean and well kept with lots of activities for the family. All in all a very nice place to stay and close to home.
Sep 18, 2017
Everything went to plan and expectation. The management were flexible and accommodating. So our stay was memorable.
Sep 18, 2017
We will definitely return.
Sep 18, 2017
The bathrooms were visibly clean, needs some new paint and dusting the top of the pilers but the vents were gross, need cleaning or replacing. Everything was good, i like the pancake breakfast, pool area, store etc. The staff were all friendly and helpful.
Sep 18, 2017
We had a GREAT time!
Sep 18, 2017
Very quiet and relaxing even though the campground was full.
Sep 18, 2017
It was very non responsive to our stay dilema of camp site. 6 months ahead reserved with two other family members could not accommodate close sites even when asked six month ago. The site given did not accommodate our needs for length of trailer. We arrived on Thursday where park half empty Camp employee told us if we did not like our site they would give us our money back sad response never

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

There were 4 RV's in the party, 3 of them were all close together...the other RV was a 2 sites away. Requests should be made prior to your arrival, preferably when you make the reservation. We are a small park and when the park is full, it is very difficult to move sites. We did everything we could to accommodate your family.

Great place. Love the Bob Jones walking trail!

Had a great time the only request I have is Handicapped shower need bars and hand held shower head would make it easier other wise wonderful park thank you for a nice week see ya soon park is very clean
Sep 16, 2017
Love the weather. Staff was friendly and helpful. Campsites are tight
Sep 16, 2017
We absolutely loved it! The campground was very clean including the restrooms & showers. Pool area was calm, clean. I loved the idea of an outdoor movie theater, but no movie was available during our stay which stunk & neither were the fire pits, but no big deal, we were busy at Pismo. The only draw back was the freeway noise, we couldn't keep our windows open at night, but not a deal breaker.
Sep 14, 2017
The accomidations and adminities are great! The activities (ice cream, movies, etc) are a nice touch! Management is a bit nit picky, but other than that we ha a great time.
Sep 14, 2017
Very nice accommodations. The amenities were also great.

Great spot. Well maintained facility and friendly staff.
Sep 13, 2017
It was wonderful. The staff was lovely. And my teenage son loved the outdoor activity area. We have already recommended the cabins to everyone at home. And it was not too far from Cal Poly, which is why we were down there. Oh, the Bob Jones walking trails was amazing too.
