Campground Reviews

We love the Hayward KOA. We have stayed there for 35 years. My only concern is at the KL9 fire pit being part of the concrete slab. It is not easily seen. My daughter fell in the fire pit while carrying groceries in. She was not seriously injured but did get hurt. There was no fire. Needs to not be there or be more obvious.

Was after Labor Day and campground was empty. Was hoping there would still be more people there. Weather was cold so didn't even get to enjoy the new chairs or have a fire. Coming earlier next year.

Everything was great , but parking multiple cars at the sites, specifically the deluxe cabins is very problematic.

It was our first stay at the KOA but it was a good one. We’ll likely be back as it provided an overall great value for what we needed.

Pool wasn't open and that was not communicated prior to arrival.

I normally give the Hayward KOA a higher rating, but until the central bathroom issue, that has been a problem for all four of our stays this summer, gets fixed I can not give a higher rating. You need to repair the whole sewer/plumbing system for that bathroom.

Great place to stay - lots of great amenities. We were there over the Chequamegan Fat Tire 40 weekend. I wish they would leave the pool and waterpark open until after the Chequamegan race weekend. My grandkids would have all been in there all weeekend and it was still int he 80's for temp. But the hosts had a free Spagehetti dinner for us all on Friday which was awesome for them to do that.

It very nice as always . I’m 61 years old and have been coming to your campground since 1990… My kids have all grown up and now it’s just me . My brother came with this time. He also camped with his family since mid 80s All the camper’s that come there are always kind and friendly � Thanks for providing us with a great place for memories ���

The Hayward KOA is a lovely campsite. The staff are very pleasant and hardworking. The campsite feels remote...wooded country, but you're only 7 minutes from town and anything needed. It was quite full due to a bicycle event and yet it was very peaceful. Very pretty.

Great experience this past weekend. Friendly staff. Landscaping and grounds were maintained nicely. The only reason I did not rate it 5 stars was the muddy roads and lack of gravel maintenance.

Great to camp in the pine trees, close to Lake Superior, lots of different types of cabins, looking forward to the next time

This KOA needs updating

The staff are friendly, they keep the campground clean and they offer terrific events for kids. We camp here every year and plan to continue doing so for years to come!

We have been returning for many years. The amenities are good. Seems there is an issue with the septic and/or pool or water side every year. One or more is always closed. Would request the staff in the check in/out office and driving around be more polite, very rude each year. Understand its the end of the season but its not what you say its how you say it. Kids that work there are great!

Great place to stay! There are many things to do in the area.

This is our 3rd time here and the first two were awesome. This time was good. I get that this time was in the off season but I didn’t realize it until we got there and the pool my son was wanting to swim in was drained and the ice cream store was closed and the general store closes at 5. If I knew that we probably would’ve planned it that way and not give his hopes up. Nobody was around to hel

The Wi-Fi was worthless and the supposedly enhanced Wi-Fi wasn’t any better. Just got an additional $8.00 out of me.

The flush toilets closest to our cabin were unusable the entire 3 day weekend. My husband and I are in our 70s; we had stayed at this KOA the previous year so we knew where things are; we did not like the extra walking at night to a flush toilet. The port-a-potties, which were closer, were okay for about a day and a half, but then they started to fill with waste and were disgusting to use.

Always an amaz9ng campground to visit! Great job!

Everything was great. Only negatives was they ran out of donuts before 8am and the pool heater broke. My son was pretty bummed it was too cold for him to swim. Otherwise we love KOA. It was our 3rd year.

Last year at our Labr Day stay the pol heater broke, same thing this year. The vandalism is concerning and there wasn't follow up on how it was handled. Was it park goers or outside folks? Did we need to be worried about our campers,vehicles, bikes, etc. being vandalized? We have stayed here a few times, are rewards members, but we may look elsewhere for next year's stay.

This past weekend was the second time this summer we stayed at the Hayward KOA. Was very disappointed in that the bathroom/septic issue, that was discovered in May for one of the bathrooms was not fixed, For having to use porta potties, we should get a discount. Also, disappointed the pool heater went out. Appears to be some maintenance/management issues this year!!! Please fix for next year!

Lots to do for the kids

One bath house was closed for repairs and the only other one was obviously very old and in need of an upgrade.

Very friendly & helpful. A pickleball court would be great.

Rude staff especially the one driving the tractor with hay ride
Sep 02, 2025
The place is in disrepair, Toilets aren't working, no heater in the pool, water slides arent working right, mini golf needs a major update. These oweners now let UTV''s 4 wheelers, and golf carts race all over the campground. I have been campign here since 1994 with my kids and nw my grand kids and have never seen anything degrade and go down hill so fast.

Everything is so over priced. The main bathrooms were out of order which is a huge inconvenience.
Sep 02, 2025
Great campground with lots for the kids to do although we were a bit disappointed the advertised heated pool heat wasn’t working and couldn’t get fixed in the time we were there. Bathrooms were also closed and smelled awful. The ports potties were dirty or out of order. Will stay again next yr, hopefully all is working order.

Rude staff, dirty bathrooms and half were not working. Freezing cold pool like as cold as lake superior! (Heater broke) all of these things have happend in the past old ownerfixed it right away. as always the red pine staff was amazing. But the Office staff not so much. I've been coming here for over 10 years and this will be my family's last time. Very sad to see how far down this place has falle

We look forward to staying here every year. We were disappointed that the Red Pine was closed all day on Tuesday. And also the water in the water slide was so cold that my kids did not want to go down it. We did have an issue with an unsupervised young boy who told us he was an employees son. He spanked our 7 year old on the butt while they were playing on the playground.

Lots of stuff to do with the kids

The bathrooms were down the whole stay we had to use ports potties without and compensation for that. Everything costs extra money. The bathrooms and showers were disgusting and always dirty. Empty soap dispensers in the bathrooms after the “cleaners” left. Website didn’t mention extra cost for slide. Playground was unimpressive compared to photos.

Had such a positive experience here a week ago when we were on our way to our vacation, we intentionally routed our way home to stay here again. Excellent people in the store, very knowledgeable and helpful.

Fantastic KOA! Great activities for kids and the whole family. Sites are always clean and well maintained. Bathrooms are also well-kept. Friendly, helpful staff.

Sites are a little narrow, you feel like you are camping on top of your neighbors. The KOA it self is nice place. The facilities are fairly well kept but are showing their age. The staff were very nice and helpful and Michelle and her family were a bright spot. Hope the KOA knows what they lucked into those folks.
