Campground Reviews

Very disappointed “post Covid” to see that this KOA didn’t add back towel dispensers given the aerosols created by the air hand dryer’s. Others we have stayed at either have towel dispensers only or both. Layout of the sites is sub optimal. We don’t carry 20+ feet of sewer hose required to hook up so had to move the trailer to dump. ��

We had a great time, the camp was very clean, lots of fun things to do between the 2 camp grounds. Close to everything. The camp host told us about an awesome firework show that made our weekend! We will definitely be back!

No serious complaints. We love KOA campgrounds. Stayed at many in 5 western states. The staff at this one were extremely friendly and helpful. We were pleased with our site, except for the badly weathered and warped picnic table. Most sites had this problem to varying degrees. No shade for playground. Very slow internet. That's usual. Overall, we were happy campers.

We always have fun when we stay here while in Bear Lake. Love having the private hot tub!!! Need more shade over the tub. The people that work here are so kind and fun!! Very clean restrooms!!! Can’t wait until next year to come back next year!!

Extremely busy holiday, but Dusty and very tight for a 40 foot pulling. Grass was dead maintenance low. we wish that all KLA‘s would have the same standards for example as W. Yellowstone Highway.

Had a great time at this KOA. Friendly staff and great location right in town. Really enjoyed the private fenced in area with our specific site, worth the upgrade for us with our small camper and two dogs.

The staff are just super wonderful and helpful. You also have access to the Marina side koa. Very clean restrooms and we had a buddy spot so it was super wide and roomy. Just can’t say enough about the staff!!! We have a yearly family gathering at the lake and love the KOA’s.

The bathrooms were kept clean and it was great to have toilets near the tents. We stayed in a tent location and our one parking spot for our tent space was constantly being taken by trucks with boats and boat trailers. As if the tent parking area was used as extra parking. This was very disappointing and inconvenient for us as we felt like we were not valued or welcomed as campers there.

We really enjoyed our stay the park is clean and well kept. My only issue is that when we called and asked if we could have tents in the rv spots we were told no. Then the weekend we were there literally every rv space had at least one (in one case 4 tents ) in the rv spots. Would have been nice if we would have known.

The folks working at the KOA were very nice. I was not impressed with camping next to a chain link fence and a storage wall. I hope trees are planted soon as the camp was sparse. I would choose marina for the shade next time. This KOA was mostly just a lot.

NO WHERE does the facility say TRAILSIDE. it only says Holiday. I went by it twice and finally stopped as the frustration took over. Even now you say Trailside, not Holiday. Susan, at the front desk offered no explanation. The pool was down, that wasn’t mentioned, at all, we could go to the otherone The two dumpsters are up front by the road, convenient for no one with bad knees/hips.

Staff is very helpful and pleasant! The restrooms are extremely! We loved the jump pad, playground and fenced area to allow our dog off leash to roam. We will come back. :)

Overall it was awesome. Nice amenities plus access to the neighboring KOA. Quiet campground but the only downside is that people start playing pickle ball around 6am waking us up too early.

Getting to the campsite wasn't good. Carrying your tent and other items up and down the hill is not good. You should have steps getting to and from the sites. I fell twice going down the hill. Not enough bathrooms or showers had to wait several times. Was unable to shower the 3 days I was there. They were always full. I won't return unless more bathrooms and showers and steps are fixed

Fire pit was full of trash. Had dog poop on the grass. Other campers playing music past quiet hours. The grass spot next to the camper was dead and mostly dirt. Not what we expected for almost $100 a night.

Staff was nice, bathrooms where nice. Camp sites share a common area, this works great if you come in a group but if you are across from a group that takes over the entire common area with multiple vehicles and stuff you feel quite confined to your motorhome

Stayed a few times now! we would definitely recommend trailside KOA to friends and family.

Great facility. Nice and quiet which is what we like. Clean and maintained. Office hours were 10-5pm which is a little bit different then what we are used to.

Great place; loved the buddy sites. Good things for kids to do. Only negative was low water pressure in Women's showers. Gotta love Bear Lake!

Reception was closed earlier. Our view was at a couple of propane tanks and a carwash.

first time staying at k o a .alittle pricey for me.One complete,speed limit in campground 5mph. People would drive way to fast kicking up dust.If you are going to have a speed limit please enforce it

People at the campground were great. The Trailside location isn't as nice as the Marinaside campground, but it's within walking distance, and you can still use the facilities there. The pull through spot I was in only had 50 amp and 20 amp, so I had to use my adapter to plug in my 30 amp rig. I probably wouldn't have been able to use both A/C units if I'd needed them, but luckily I didn't.

Staff personel were great, kind and friendly. Just the Body site green areas, not so green.

We were in one of the little cabins and found it cozy but adequate, except the door was difficult to lock; you had to pull real hard to line up. We were very happy to have an air conditioner since it was very hot all week long. It would have been better if we had a couple of trees to help shade us when we were outside at the picnic table. The campground and restroom facilities were very clean.

Loved the location of our campsites 45 & 46. Close to bathrooms and all amenities.

Came from Banberry Idaho drive to Bear Lake. I was charged n RV fees when I had only primitive setup. Stay was ok. Site table was wooden n warped n showed signs of wear. Mens: The show stalls was small. 1 toilet for all the guests that I could see. Also toilet was clogged n over flowed. Camp site was clean n had decent/good amenities except a pool.

Mattress on bed not the most comfortable. Hard to get out of the bed easily if not sleeping on the edge. Liked having fridge, microwave and tv in the room.

The biggest problem was that the sewer connection was on the high side of the trailer (site 22) and had new pipe that was about 8 inches above the ground. Do you believe the swage will flow up hill. I had to keep lifting the pipe above the connection over and over to get my trailer drained. Not at all satisfying. I WILL NOT BE BACK

Bear lake is beautiful, but this KOA and their advertising is quite misleading. You think the park is beautiful and right on water from pics which is not the case. It’s a very basic KOA - not much shade and most sites are buddy spots so sharing your main space. Would not choose to stay here again. Had issues with laundry. Broken and crappy. Marina side is much nicer, shady and lots of amenities.

This was a very neat, well-maintained property. We enjoyed the campground itself. The older lady who runs the desk is pretty rude. She was angry with two of the other staff and proceeded to drop many obscenities loudly next to the basketball court and playground in front of many children. My two children ran back and reported it to us. A couple of F bombs and GD in front of children by staff.

This was an overnight stay on our trip to Yellowstone, and The staff was friendly and helpful. It was easy to get to our campsite. I would stay here again, might even make it a destination stop,

one night here. this was our first encounter with buddy sites, had never heard of them before. at check in though staff knew the park was sparsely populated on a Sunday night so we were offer a site not next to someone else. Great folks but was absolutely amazed the on duty staff was out working until after 9pm, cleaning, watering, moving things around. Grassy sites that are mostlyflat. If I have one thing to suggest is to mow the grass in the dog park shorter, makes cleaning up easier. We'd stat here again
