    We were here in September and all was fine. We were here in the last week of October, the last week the campsite was open and we didn’t really feel welcome. Personal was largely absent. One of the nicest situated KOA’s, it is a nuisance that the laundry is only open from 9AM to 7PM. That’s the hours you are away from the campsite. Why the superfluous code locking of the doors with changing

    CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

    We have limited staff late in the season and reduce our open hours accordingly. We have locks on our bathrooms due to non guests coming onto the property and using them- they stay much cleaner since we put those in.

    Gorgeous mountain views. Clean facilities. Loads of outdoor activities available locally (hiking, biking, fishing, jeeping, hot springs, etc.).

    We had a really nice time staying at the Buena Vista, Colorado KOA. We enjoyed the recreation room and found the facility clean and comfortable. The employees were all helpful and friendly. We look forward to returning in the future.

    We are so glad we stayed in Buena Vista. The campground was clean and the bathrooms were great. Our hosts, Helen and Dom , were absolutely wonderful. My 83 year old dad was having trouble breathing and Helen ran out to the truck with a can of oxygen. She saved his life. I'll certainly be back. Thanks so much. Suzanne

    It was short notice and asked for a cabin with a view. We were not disappointed! The entire campground was well-maintained and clean. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely return!

    Overall the place was alright. In my opinion the price was a bit high, when you can see it isn’t kept up very well. Showers and bathroom could really use some help and some heat for when it gets cold.

    CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

    We are trying to save money to redo the bathrooms.

    This is the most amazing KOA ever. Views of the mountains are spectacular. Great hiking trails right from the campground. Book early, this place is popular. New washers and dryers. The drinking water is an issue, heavily mineralized and scale laden.

    CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

    We are on a well and have to treat the water.

    Very easy to check in! Clean restrooms and showers with hot water!

    Perhaps because our stay was late in the season most of the campground things such as the store, checking in, bath houses etc. were closed down. Upon arrival I went to the camp office and was met by a gentleman that was taking supplies into the store and he just handed me my lot information and said it’s over there “you can come back at 4 and do paperwork or I can just bill the same credit car

    CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

    Our bathrooms are open- our satellite bath house is closed down for the winter. We do have the store and office open for limited hours 9 to 11 and 4 to 7.
    Oct 09, 2018
    The pull through sites near the office and the playground were odd. No clear idea of whose fire ring or hookups were whose?

    CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

    The sites alternate pulling in from the east and the west- they have a shared box with electric and double headed water spigots. There are two fire rings/picnic tables on the sides where your RV door would face, pick one ring/table and the other one is for the site next door.

    Second time we have been there and really like the area. It was great weather too. Great places to within just a few miles. They have everything you could want.

    We had NO water the entire four days we were there. I never got to take a shower, and we were thankful we brought bottled water with us to do simple things in the camper. I will NEVER be recommending this place to anyone else. I paid the KOA price for full hookups, and didn't get it. Very unacceptable.

    CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

    Why didn't you tell us when you were here that you had no water? We can't fix something we don't know about!

    Site was very unlevel. No grass for dog and way too much sand.

    CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

    We are a high desert environment- no grass and sandy soil is what we have.

    People were very nice.We stayed in a cabin and the mattress was HORRIBLE it was hard as a ROCK we.Slept on it for four nights and were still sore after we got home.

    CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

    The mattress is brand new, just put it in that kabin in early August.

    Fall is our favorite time to stay in this campground. It's peaceful and quiet, and as always, there's that million-dollar view. Thanks, Dom and Helen, for another great stay!

    Everything was efficiently taken care of. The tent camping areas are really nice. I noted in comments that we were planning to sleep in the car, not in the tents. When I got there I noticed that many of the parking spaces were not level. However, the site they had given us had level parking for car sleeping. That's good attention to detail.

    CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

    We do our best to check notes on reservations and accommodate when possible.

    Clean campground; check in process easy; staff very nice. Wish they had cabins that had bathrooms in them to rent.

    CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

    The labor on cleaning a cabin with bathroom on a one night stay would make the cost too high.

    There was too much dirt and dust. The slope of our site was bad. We did have a great view and enjoyed hiking the adjacent trail.

    We are a high desert location.
