I have been coming to Hayward koa for 22 years now. And lately the quality and cleanliness of everything has gone WAY down hill. The bathrooms at the club house were out of order so there were port-a potties to use. The playground had lots of broken pieces. (like the steering wheel on the truck) The shower houses were filthy and smelt terrible all weekend. The mini golf is rotten and broken.

All the staff were friendly and helpful! Love Hayward KOA!

Your charge is more, that I would guess is because all you have for kids. For others for camping if you’re not staying in your cabins there is no grass. I didn’t want to take my grill or chairs out because of the dirt and it rained so the campground was just a mud hole. Invest in some gravel.

Loved the location and the scenery-- but tent sites with no electric makes it hard for people that have medical equipment-- We would've had a better stay if the bathrooms were working properly and the people next to us respected the quiet times. Store was lacking in grocery supplies also in case people were needing anything.

Had a great time introducing my two young kids and my niece who was four to camping. The adults enjoyed it too!

As full-time RVers for almost 4 years we have stayed at 200 different places in 49 states and 4 Canadian provinces. We have never stayed anywhere with a staff that was more friendly and helpful. Glenda in particular was such a joy. It was only a one night stay but it made an impression on us. Thank you!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Hayward KOA. We found that the gentleman with the dreads had amazing customer service and was a real pleasure to communicate with as he delivered wood and pizza and made the ice cream for our kids was absolutely fabulous experience. The only complaints that we found was that the fire pit was too deep for a fire and mice in the cabin.

The first time staying there about my daughter and her family stays there every year very nice clean exceptionally attentive and helpful staff. Maintenance staff was spot on very courteous and actually were able to engage with people on like most maintenance at most of those places. Very good job I would certainly go there again in fact I'm planning on going back next year

We enjoyed our stay. We brought our two year old on the wagon ride and he got sprayed right in the face 5/6 times from Sasquatch. Previous wagon rides they only used the squirt guns once or twice and it was fine. I thought this was a little much for small kids. My little guy was very very upset.

Campground is “tired” and needs a good update. No TV signal for those that like to watch tv at night. Internet is slow so no streaming but you can pay for faster signal. On-site restaurant was great and reasonably priced! Shame to pay a high nightly rate then have to pay extra for everything but the pool usage. Staff were all wonderful people to talk to. Probably would stay again.

Sites too close together. Uncomfortable. Noisy campground with construction project adjacent. Much too expensive.

We've been camping at Hayward KOA since 2010 and it never disappoints. We just love this place!!! Close to mountain bike and hiking trails. Also not that far from Hayward which is our favorite town!!!

Great place for families with kids. Lots of activities for them to stay busy. Mattress in our cabin very poor- bed frame so noisy it would wake everyone up every time we turned over. Barely any water coming out of the shower head- tried all the different flow settings. It is camping but for the cost of the cabin - it would’ve been nice to be able to rinse my hair.

Honestly a mixed bag. Bought by private equity firm about 5 years ago. Positive: cabin what we needed for our family, lots of fun kids activities, quiet at night in back of campground Negatives: cosmetics poor, water on the floor in cabin during rainstorm, pool ice cold (lots of audible complaints about this), playground has safety issues, teenage drone users harrassed guests but not remove

Could use a broom in the cabins

Staff was very friendly and funny, plenty of things to do when not raining. The waterslide was amazingly fast. The main bathrooms were shutdown all weekend so I had to drop a star but overall it was a great stay.

Family reunion get together. Great time.

Clean camp sites and facilities, pool was nice and refreshing and the staff was very friendly and helpful! Will definitely be staying at the Hayward KOA again.

Would be helpful to have a photo of the cabin floor plans instead of a diagram. We didn't realize the ceiling was so low in the loft. Also should provide a instruction booklet in each cabin. Didn't find inflatable mattress for futon until day 2. Everything else was very good fir a family vacation especially for the grandkids. Had a nice time.

The staff was helpful and very visible on the grounds if we had a problem. The cabins were clean and well maintained. The restrooms were down by the lobby but felt having the portable bathrooms in that area was a way to accommodate guests. It always felt safe for children to run and play and be kids. We felt this property was cleaner and better maintained than the accommodations at Wisconsin Dells

We love KOA Hayward and have spent a lot of time here. A few things needed more attention, the pool was full of sand on the shallow end, we were told the robot cleaner has been skipping the shallow end, the pool itself could use a good cleaning around the top too. I noticed a lot of cost cutting things that are trying but the prices to camp are some of the highest we've found with the same ameniti

Besides one heavy rain, grandkids loved it. Plenty of activities and things they loved doing.

Dog barking constantly. Drone following us as we walked in camp. Spots to park camper very close and tight. Couldn't put awning out. Very little grass.

This was our first time at this KOA. It had a lot to offer with the waterslide, mini golf, pool and tubing on river. We did it all! However, we felt there could be some updating and maintenance to areas. Repair and painting etc. We STRONGLY recommend better signage for tubing landing at the end of the float trip!

Really liked how they stager the RVs so that they are facing opposite of each one so you don’t have the fire pits or picnic tables/people directly outside of your windows. The laundry facilities need an extreme makeover. Not very clean. Washing machines look worn out and several not working. The dryers were the worst! They had to be over 20 years old. Again several not even working!

My family has been coming to this KOA for the last 4 years. We enjoy all of the amenities they offer and the staff is amazing and the campgrounds are well maintained. We are already planning next years vacation here.

Stayed in a deluxe cabin. The futon cracked very loudly when sat or slept on when you moved! The bunk bed mattresses are so thin I could feel the wood frame below it! Very uncomfortable!

I like how quiet the evenings are. This is our 4th year going to this KOA. We love all the activities and pool. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The only recommendation I would make is the picnic tables need to be refinished. When it rained, it finally dried out on the 3rd day.

Campground is kept clean. Bathrooms are cleaned several times a day. Clean showers with hot water! Kids were having a great time at pool and bouncy pad. Staff was helpful and courteous. I’ll stay there again.

Normally I would give a 5. We come every year. This year the toilets were broken and the port a potties didn’t get emptied resulting in a horrible smell. There were not as many activities for the themed weekend like previous years. Handful of games or machines in the arcade were broken. Our camping cabin was good as expected and the staff were great. Hope by next year a little TLC happen

We loved our stay again this summer! The patio sites are wonderful! …the pool was freezing though. On the wishlist would be a ph # to order delivery from the Red Pine.

What a great stay! The staff was very friendly and we enjoyed everything there was to do! The kids enjoyed the pool and had a great time with all the activities of the weekend! The Olympics were a hit for sure and so family friendly! Good stay from start to finish. Our first stay and we'll be back!

This has to be one of the nicest KOA's ive stayed at for a while. They offer so many things for kids to do. The stuff and prompt and friendly. Lots of extra services offered. Dont miss smores on Friday nights and the outdoor movie. Travis has done an amazing job. Keep it up. We will definitely be back.
