We were upset that the pool was out of commission but we really liked how the Tent City was set up and the other amenities were well worth the price.

We had a great time, and were happy to stay at the Carlsbad KOA. It was well kept and well managed. The only improvement I would suggest is that some weed spray be done to take care of all the Goat Head weeds. There were so many that we couldn't hardly take a step without getting goat heads in our shoes. All the KOA balls were flat because of it, and our air mattress went flat because of it

The pool is closed due to unforseen circumstances? Their restaurant is also closed. The bathroom toilets were constantly backed up. The grass areas at the campsites are really nothing but weeds with stickers. We were very disappointed in this KOA and will not be returning.

Great location to Brantley State Park. I wish the bathrooms were cleaner/nicer. Other than that everything was great.

I have stayed at many KOAs, and this one left much to be desired in comparison to all the others. It was disappointing to see the pool and shop closed on a holiday weekend that is traditionally a peak camping time. My campsite had trash left from previous camper and severely broken picnic table. Restroom facilities were clean. I should've stayed at the state park instead for the price.

Two nights in a TT, full hookups, level site, A little further from the Cave than we thought but ok, Pool and kitchen were out of service during our stay, Holiday weekend so it was full and noisy, great place if you have kids. Good T Mobile service, friendly staff

Nice park, the kids had a lot of fun, the staff was great.

We were informed when we checked in that the swimming pool was closed due to a broken part. We never received any text or email notification of it. When we pulled up to our campsite there was dog poop and trash. We took care of it so we wouldn’t step on it during our setup. Two dumpsters far away on each side of the park, overflowing onto the ground with trash. Worst KOA so far, never again.

Was not told upfront that pool was dirty & not open. Was not told restaurant closed. No info in office about sightseeing. Little dissapointed

We chose this location because of its pool that was supposed to open mid May. At time of departure pool was still closed.

This was our first time staying at a KOA campground. We had an awesome time tent camping in the area with the electricity and water. The staff were very nice and helpful. The facility/restroom were very clean. The kitchen has some challenges, so we didn’t get to try the BBQ (no big deal). The overall experience was great! We will for sure visit again if we are in the area.

They didn’t notify us that the pool and kitchen Weren’t available till we were on our way on a holiday weekend and the pool had been Down for months as it was dark green the grass area’s were weeds the place was rundown. it was the worst koa I have ever been to they really need to take a good look at themselves.the store also had very few items.

Stayed in the Kasa cabin, no bathroom. Make sure to remember to bring your own linens. Great facilities on site, bathrooms and showers, store. Cool 4 wheel pedal bikes to rent.

Most things broken /closed/very unkept needs total cleanup except bathrooms get some fish in your pond if you use it to attract business very disappointing.

Nicely spaced between sites. Although our site did not have any shade. Wood picnic table was older & not easy to wipe down before using. Bathroom had older fixtures & suggest you remodel them.

Website said there was a pool. Pool was closed, filthy, and slimy. Nowhere near being opened, but I was told they are waiting on inspection, then story changed to trying to get it fixed. Bathrooms were moldy. Not what I expected from a KOA. KOA corporate told me they are franchised and can’t do anything about it. So what is the point of any loyalty or expectation for KOA?

The cabin was cute and cozy, the atmosphere was great, beautiful sun rises and sun sets were an added bonus, we admired the upkeep of the park and watching the animals and birds. I would have liked to see brochures of Carlsbad Caverns and other places of interest in the office, we're tourists and not familiar with the area. The restaurant was closed, that was disappointing & the pool wasn't open.

This is not Carlsbad, it is very remote with no services close. The pool has been broken long enough that it’s growing scum on top and the kitchen/cafe was closed.
May 27, 2023
Good facilities. Easy to park my trailer. The only issue was they advertised B-B-Q dinners available for a fee, but when we went to get them they said they could'nt do this because they were having issues. They should have told us this when we checked in.

We stayed for three nights and had a wonderful time. The sites are large and clean. It was quiet with lots of room to walk the dogs. There are two fenced areas for the dogs to run off leash. I would recommend the KOA to anyone.

No air conditioning in laundry . My only complaint

Doesn't deserve a "Holiday" designation!

Sewer smell was horrible during the night.

Other than being a little far out of town. This campground is very well taken care of and nicley layed out. The lots are spaciouse and well spaced out. We had a delux with a patio area that was covered with a swing. Had freinds joining us and were parked next to us so convinient for cooking and socializing.

Stayed there 2 days, the sites were large and clean. Would definitely stay there again.

The "tent village" site 4 was dirty, full of cobwebs, weeds knee high. Shame on KOA for not preparing for it for our stay. When we asked that they at least weed wack it, they couldn't be bothered. Be aware the tent village is like an echo chamber. You'll hear everything amplified--Your neighbors will sound like they're in your tent with you. Beware Saturday night-party night! Not a peaceful stay.

It was a very nice park. People were amazing, and we had a great RV site. Will definitely visit again.

The campground is nicely maintained and the sites are spaced well. We loved our stamped concrete patio with table & chairs and glider. Area was very quiet. Our only complaint was the water - the taste was terrible and when tested it was too high in particles. We even filtered it and still could not drink it or use for cooking.
May 20, 2023
This campground is just not equal to other KOA's we have stayed in. Check in was not real friendly, knew nothing about area. Grounds were unkept and staff looked unprofessional. We will not recommend or stay here again.
May 20, 2023
It was ok - the one thing that needs to be addressed is the very weak WiFi! We have a booster and could not improve the weak signal!

The park is a desert setting, dry and dusty, and you can take a bit of the old west with you. Site B4 was level, no trees if you like lots of sun, which we do. All utilities worked well, 5G WIFI worked excellent with Win 11. 2G WIFI would drop out constantly with Win 10, unusable. KOA was our desert base camp while we went out in the day to explore the region and caverns.

Very nice, quiet, clean and well kept. Staff was very friendly and helpful. There are a few trees that have died and need replanting.

Internet still not working very well. Had same issues last time I stayed. Will not be going back.

Had premium site BBQ was so dirty it was not usable. Weeds everywhere swing was old and chairs were bent. Dog run was more of a sticker park I would not stay here again and too far out of town
May 16, 2023
The cable was terrible so snowy couldn't watch TV. WiFi was non existent. Could never hook up to it
May 16, 2023

Great RV spots. Very spacious! Well kept, very clean. About 45 mins from Carlsbad Caverns. They do make pizzas on site, but the nearest restaurant or store is about 30mins. Still really great KOA
