Campground Reviews

Jun 24, 2024
This is was my second stay at Chautauqua Lake KOA. Last year as a tenter, and this year with an RV. Friendly, helpful staff, clean facilities, nice dog parks, and nice sites. Hope to return again.

The stay was with very hot weather, but we were comfortable with the KOA amenities provided, and there were no power outages.

Campground was clean. Our site was very hard to get into. It took a lot of maneuvering. The girl helping us didn’t have a clue on how to get a camper into the site. Too many seasonal sites.

Friendly helpful staff. The grounds are well kept and pads are level. Peek through the trees and see a view of the lake. Lots of seasonal folks and quite a few tiny houses. Didn't use the bathrooms or showers but based on everything else I'm sure they are clean. Garbage picked up daily. Roads are either asphalt or stone. Chatauqua Institute just minutes away. I would recommend it.

Not customer-friendly attitude when we requested a change in site. Not at all consistent with KOA philosophy of customer first.

Love the campground and everything it has in it and around it just wish it had a early check in time

Swimming pool was a hit with the kids! We enjoyed being able to rent a golf cart on site. Had a blast in the golf cart parade! Every employee we met, including the manager, was so fun, kind, and helpful. The few issues that arose were promptly handled with care. All of the employees made sure that we had everything we needed in our cabin & took care to go above and beyond. Thank you!

We love it here. The view is great, the staff is great. It's just a nice, peaceful and very well cared for campground.

On the second day of vacation my door handle came apart so I couldn't open the door from inside without a screw driver. Anthony picked me up in the golf cart and took me up to the workshop to find the right washer and screw to fix the handle. Great place, great folks.

One thing that could be better is the dusty roads. Also the sites could use a little leveling. Seem to be rutted and uneven.

All was well, except our grass was high with clumps of old grass all over. The fireplace had tall weeds all around it

We had an awesome time! First time staying at a KOA. I was very impressed at the activities and meals offered at the kampground. Our grandchildren are already asking when we are going back! Can’t think of a better way to spend Fathers Day!

Another great stay at Chautauqua KOA. Quiet and well kept with large sites. Staff is always friendly and helpful. This was our third trip here and we will be back next year.

Great stay in the cabins and gamper tents for our bicycle group. The community kitchen also made the stay very pleasant, especially for the meal preparers.

Nice park, pool could use some repairs.

First off I LOVE KOA. We pulled in here after a horrible time trying to fit our huge rig in a state park. With nowhere to go we called and confirmed a spot through Andrea. A beautiful piece of paradise. Kelly helped us arrange for 3 nights while we met alot of guests enjoying father's day weekend and the seasonals. IT FELT LIKE HOME. We will definitely be back. THANK Susan ( the manager) for such

Arrived late and left early. Outstanding facility, but a little pricey for a campground.

We had a wonderful time. We will be staying there again soon

No view of the lake. Definitely was not at all like the picture showed at all. So misleading

The dog park area could use some cleanup and grass mowed

We enjoyed our long holiday weekend. Staff very professional & nice! Always clean & very pleasant campers on other sites. My husband needed a specific tool for the RV & he e found it @ the KOA store! We were very happy about that. Nice variety at the store. Always enjoy our stay when we come here. We'll be back again soon!

Great place to stay. The only thing we did not like was that the grass was long with long dead grass on top.

The campground is very quiet, especially at night, which makes relaxing very easy. The staff is very friendly and accommodating and the grounds are very well kept. There's plenty of activities for young and old, and the views of Chautauqua Lake are awesome. This was our second stay here, and we're already planning a return trip later this summer. I would highly recommend this campground to all.

Everyone was extremely helpful and courteous. Plenty of activities and manager Susan was the best! The dirt roads need help or better yet, paved.

Great campground! We stayed in the lower end of the campground & were very happy with the large site, tree providing shade in the afternoon and the well maintained site, picnic table and fire ring. Great to get texts re: various holiday weekend activities. One suggestion - fix gate & fence in Kamp K9 area. Lots of dogs camping so if this area were better maintained it would probably get more use!

We love it here. Always a pleasant experience.

Arrived after the office closed. Instructions left in the agreed location. Excellent bathrooms. Nice location but not many trees for shade in newest area. That's ok because we just stayed the night. Nice staff.

Very nice place. We enjoyed our stay very much. Would like to visit again when the season is in full swing.

We came by to check out future campsites and the campground was already closed, but we talked to a man named Anthony that was extremely helpful and informative, and not only did he take his personal time, but actually took my wife and I on a golf cart tour, knowing we drove over an hour to come there. I wish more people were like this kind man, which makes me want to camp there even more so. Thanks Anthony, we really appreciate it! Dave and Kathy

Camped here the weekend after Labor Day Roomy sites, very clean and the grounds are well kept. We would stay here again. We visited Niagara Falls (American side) and also Bemus Point and Jamestown

Update: We have stayed here almost every Labor Day weekend since our initial visit. This last time in 2026 we stayed in the Eagles Nest 3 bedroom cabin. Overall we were very happy and will be going back every year. Now that I have grandkids I just wish there were a few more activities for the younger kids during holiday weekends. We were here over Labor Day weekend (Fri-Mon). We stayed in L02 the cabin with no bathroom. We were very pleasantly surprised by the cabin it was very spacious and probably the best "basic" cabin we've stayed in at any KOA (we've been to quite a few). It had heat/AC, cable TV, mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker. My minor complaints about the cabin were: the heat didn't work very well it took awhile for it to actually heat up (it was chilly at night), one window facing a glamping tent was missing a blind (but thankfully we didn't have neighbors), the bed was kinda hard to get out of without killing your thighs on the wood framed box and last I wish it had a Keurig instead of the old school coffee maker (I brought my own so wasn't a huge deal). This cabin is literally right next to the bathroom and shared kitchen space. I really loved the shared kitchen and wish more KOA's did this. There was a sink for dishes and two separate 4 burner cook tops in a nice screened in area with electricity. My one complaint about it was it had a really off putting smell which I'm guessing was either the trash in there or someone put something gross down the drains. The bathrooms were a little disappointing. They were pretty small with a toilet & shower in each. The shower didn't have a curtain so everything got soaked when you showered. The hot water was good however. It seemed they only cleaned them once a day and they were kinda dirty, but again not the worst I've seen and not really the fault of the KOA. The staff was super friendly and overall we really really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back soon. The area is beautiful and it's definitely a "lake town" setting.
