Campground Reviews

Only stayed one night but it is a good spot for the night. You do hear interstate traffic but so hot with ac on not a problem for us. Nice shade trees helped in the extreme heat. Would stay again.

This was an overnight stop on our journey home from the Bay Area to Arizona. Staff were very helpful and courteous. The site we had was 100% level so set up was very fast. We got a good night's rest and were able to leave on time in the morning to make it home in the early afternoon.

We only stayed one night but was able to use the dog park. It is very, clean and has a shad and a bench to sit on while waiting for your dog to utilize the area.

It's a well maintained, beautiful campground. The only issue we had was that the cabin we stayed in did not have hot water.

Nice desert campground. To bad the Paw Pen does not have cover over the gravel area for the dogs. The gravel during the day is very hot. Other than that friendly staff. Nice pool. Great place for a overnight or two.

It’s a good place to spend some time chilling out. The staff members are very friendly and helpful.

It was just a one night stop over and it was a nice campground. I would recommend it if you were traveling through Barstow.

Several of their laundry machines were out of order. Very limited laundry hours. Other KIA’s are 24 hours service. Campsites to close. You can see into each other’s windows. Pool not very inviting. No green grass. Very dry…

It’s OK for overnight stay. A lot of dirt.

ADA shower with padlock., No code or key to get in. Also, campground charged $4.50 for a shade tree spot. The campground was fairly empty with multiple tree spots available. Felt very unprofessional and ungrateful to charge a KOA member $4.50 for a spot in the shade. Really? It was not about the money, but the principle of it.

Roomy level spots, nice showers, cafe for a meal. Would definitely stay here again.

It’s a great place. It is the desert, but it’s a good place to stay. I would stay there again.

It was a brief overnight stay. Surroundings beautiful, property well maintained. We did not feel crowded in. We listed this site as a potential longer stay site for the near future.

The sites need some repairs and updates. The sewer in our site was completely full and we couldn’t use the site sewer.

It’s very obvious that the owners are doing improvements….the new round tile table at our site was a nice touch

It was hot but your 50 amp kept both air conditioners running full time. Also was given site that the trees shielded one side of our rig. Amanda was very helpful with local recommendations which I really appreciated.

The place needs some more love. The rv spot was ok but the surrounding of the swimming pool could be nicer. Also the not enthousiastic welcome could much better.

Biggest complaint was Laundry. Area wasn't very clean and washing machines not cleaned. Staff could have been friendlier.

Nice park. Only thing I was disappointed with is their willingness to refund $20 cancellation fee. We had a reservation for 8/3/26 due to a breakdown. When I called I could not give them a new date due to the unknown time frame of repair. After the repair I made a new one for 8/6/26. On arrival I explained and was told no that was their cancellation policy. As a VIP with KOA was very disappointed.

Eden was so very helpful!

The campground is excellent for being located in the desert. The campground personel are congenital and accommodating. I plugged into a 50 amp space. I could only achieve drawing a 30 amp total. The campground host offered to move me to another space. I was completely hooked up to E,S and W. Tired after driving over 400 miles, I refused to unplug and re-plug, so l limited my current draw to 30

Beautiful surroundings. Mountains all around. It’s a nice place for a one or two day stop over. Gkids played in the pool. Free morning coffee. Showers were good. The gravel parking lot was seriously tough on my sinuses.

Price is high but it’s a koa. Easy check in site was level and utilities easy to reach. Very hot but that’s the time of year

We pulled in late and everything was ready, great helpful and friendly staff. The campground was so much more than I expected.

The only issue was at the pool. There was a family there with a young girl needing a wheelchair. I am a lifeguard and asked if the pool transfer chair was working at the front desk. The attendant said he didn't know, it hadn't been used in 3 years. Sad to have a piece of equipment meant for access and not know if it works.

Ok for a quick stop as it’s right by highway. Clean . Nice staff

Everything was fine but found out day we were leaving that uranium levels were unacceptably high

Campground should have gotten a four, but they are heavily landscaped with Oleander, which they have signs about being poisonous, tamarisk, and Russian olive. Both of the latter are invasive species and water intensive. Otherwise, the campground is well kept and easy to get in and out of in a bigger rig.

The ceiling fan was full of dust. The AC worked fine, but was pre-set to a 'sleep' mode at night which was insufficient. I had to figure out the settings & turn it back on. Stepping out of the bathtub is steep; Install a grab-bar on the pine wood next to the tub enclosure. 1 wash cloth, 2 bath and hand towels, 3 plates and drink glasses in an UPGRADED cabin that sleeps 4; OK for us, but others?

We only stayed for one night while traveling through the area. The KOA was very clean and well kept, and when we checked in the staff was very friendly. I was surprised to find there was more to do around the area than I expected.

We’ve stayed here many, many times over the years. It’s always a comfortable destination with large, LEVEL sites plenty of shade and a terrific pet area. This park is reliably good and consistent, will continue to stay and recommend Calico.

Had the best stay! Staff was friendly, and the cabin was clean and cozy. Lots of holiday touches, including activities for the kids. This year, Barstow KOA added decorative Halloween comforters (bedding) and other decorations throughout. It was a nice surprise to walk into a decorative space that I didn't have to plan. The kids loved it. Only steps from Calico Ghost Town, so ultra convenient (and these cabins are much nicer than the ones in the actual ghost town). We'll definitely be coming back!
