Beautiful pool and amenities. The cabins need lots of help, there no blinds in bedrooms, at 5am, it’s so bright you can’t sleep. The internet/Tv has been down for 3+ years. The furnace shouldn’t be under kids bunk beds, EXTREMELY loud, and not safe. Try sleeping in there and when it goes off at 2am it’s scary. living room couches are worn out, need new ones.fridge is huge, but no stove to

I arrived with my mother on May 23rd. My son and his family were in site 121 with their camper. I was assigned to a cabin ways from them. My daughter inlaw went back to the office. Eric helped get us switched to a cabin, kitty corner from their site. What a nice gesture. My mom uses a walker and it made for a much nicer stay. We will be back and Kudos to the staff. Well ran campground. Thank You!

The staff was phenomenal, so accommodating and friendly. The kiddos loved the pool, jump pad, tractor ride and playground. The cabin was a bit dusty, windows and screens need a good cleaning. Grass wasn’t mowed. Overall it was a good stay, but felt a bit dirty and unkept.

My parents and family have been going to the Hayward KOA for over 20 years. This was the first year I saw it so empty on our memorial weekend trip. The last few years we have watched the place decay. Upkeep seems to be the last thing on the owners mind. Mini golf course boards are rotted out, water slide looks like it hasn't run in years, grounds weren't mowed. It just looks run down.

We stayed in a cabin. Nice and clean. Staff very friendly.

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.

Excellent!

Everything was great , but parking multiple cars at the sites, specifically the deluxe cabins is very problematic.
Sep 15, 2025
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.

Place is great
Sep 12, 2025
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!
Sep 08, 2025
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!

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 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!
Sep 06, 2025
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.
Aug 28, 2025
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.
Aug 28, 2025
Lots of stuff to do with the kids
Aug 28, 2025
It was fun but…we had visitors come and my sister had to pay for her 4 month old baby to come in! Then the kids could not do much because the slides were closed and they shut down the trampoline really early so they were paying for all their kids to do nothing. It’s really frustrating.

The bathrooms were out of order almost the whole time. The machines in the game room were broken. Overall it all seem a little rundown. However, the cafe had good food and prompt delivery and the pool was great.
Aug 26, 2025
We stayed a couple nights and loved all the events that were organized, the food and grounds. The staff was very helpful and kind, too.

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.
Aug 25, 2025
All the staff were friendly and helpful! Love Hayward KOA!

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.
Aug 23, 2025
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

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.
Aug 18, 2025
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
Aug 18, 2025
Could use a broom in the cabins
Aug 18, 2025
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.
Aug 18, 2025
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

Super kid friendly and the staff we interacted with were very positive, helpful and friendly.

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.
Aug 13, 2025
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!
Aug 12, 2025
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
Aug 11, 2025
Always clean and well kept. Campground staff are always pleasant and helpful. Plenty of kid related activities to keep them busy and happy.

After paying a high enough price for a cabin, beds, A/C, electricity, I felt like the KOA nickel and dimed us. Mini golf is $3 a person per round and the water slide was $2 for 1 time. The Mount Rushmore KOA doesn't charge for mini golf while having more to offer. Also, the toilets were out if order. They did bring in outdoor toilets but they were disgusting.
Aug 11, 2025
I have been staying at the KOA with my family for many years. This year we noticed maintenance at the KOA is lacking. Bathrooms that are not functional, fencing that needs to be put back into place (leaning). Terrible smell coming from the portable toilet. Buildings need painting and upkeep. Some of the arcade games were not working. Bathroom and showers need deep cleaning. A bit disappointing.
Aug 08, 2025
It's huge place but when we were there but when we were here this last week it was about 1/2 full which made it even better. Grandson loved the playgrounds, pool & bounce pad. It was quiet at night. Some showers took a little longer to warm up but worked good. We were in a cabin and the ac worked great. So all in all a good place to stay.
Aug 07, 2025
We love staying here. On our last stay, we arrived on Sunday and left Tuesday morning. My husband said the men's bathroom was messy/dirty the whole time. (as we were leaving Tues. morning, a cleaning team was just beginning) Also, the garbage bins where you use your hand to push the trash in were very dirty - I didn't want to touch it to throw away the trash. Overall - a GREAT place!!

Always a fun enjoyable family weekend stay!

Our family gathered last weekend and had so much fun. We stayed in KL26 and K199. The family enjoyed the pool, golf and tubing down the river. We really enjoyed our time and the staff were so nice and helpful. Will be back next year.

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.
