Cabin wasn’t very clean a razor from previous renter left in shower. Bath mat dirty. Sandy in spots. Cobwebs in corners. Bummed no water slide or arcade.
Jul 28, 2026
Some of the amenities aren't available throughout the week. And I've been there many times in the past and the cleanliness of the bathroom wasnt quite the same. Im not sure if its cause I stayed mon-thurs or what.

This KOA is very poorly run! The bathroom (especially the men’s) was very dirty the whole time I was there. The showers had huge spiderwebs hanging from the corners. The cabins table was sticky and I had to clean it before even putting my stuff in there. Overall very poorly run, everything looked run down/ dirty.

I’ve camped here for 30+ years, but this visit felt disappointing. My request to be placed near family was overlooked, weekday office hours were very limited, bathroom privacy and cleanliness were concerning, the pool was cold, and the waterslide and hayrides were unavailable. The campground felt tired and mostly closed during the week. I hope it improves.

it's a beautiful area and Hayward is a great place. It's a spot that accommadates a number of people in our group, that's why we continue to come. Downside: KL2 cabin, the futon has got to go. calling that a bed is stretching reality and it's a very uncomfortable couch. We are exploring options since the price is fairly steep for the quality we get. Love the AC. were you short staffed this year?

We come every year (because it’s tradition) but this year the kids were really sad about the arcade and water slide being gone and the candy section in the store being much less. Also, there seemed to be medium sized bike shortage for rent. The ornament craft was fun and the dance party. Overall I think the amenities need a refresh and I think all the open camping spots speak for themselves.
Jul 27, 2026
My was great just like if the dance party could last till 10:00 instead of 9:00 pm otherwise love it

We come every year and this year seemed really run down! Not taken care of or up to standards! We did talk to employees and found out why so we totally understand why and hopefully next year it will be in better shape! I was really upset the mural in the bathroom building was painted over because my cousin painted it 20 plus years ago! See ya next year

We have been going for years now. This is the most rundown and unkept we have seen it. Pool wasnt cleaned all week, sand in the bottom among other things floating. No red pine open no arcade or waterslide anymore. Bathrooms were not clean like they use to be. So sad. We love going there as a family but it is a dump now!

Booking was a nightmare. The cabin was clean and fit our family well, but the bathroom door wouldn’t stay open or lock. The office and restaurant closed early, so we couldn’t buy ice, firewood, rent bikes, or use the store. The pool was a good size but cold and had dirt on the bottom. Overall, an average stay. Might come back.

My family has been coming here for 30+ years. I brought my kids and 4 of their friends on a Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. We stayed in the deluxe cabin so the nightly rate was almost $300. When we arrived, we found out the waterslide and arcade are permanently closed, tubing is on Fridays only, ice cream shop was closed during the week. Sad to say our 30 year tradition will be coming to an end.

We had a nice time but there are a couple of things that should be looked into that might have made it a bit better. One of the things is the grill. It was so filthy and did not work very well that we decided to use the backup we brought with us just in case. A tiny grill that is hard to cook on for 6 people. The railing on the right hand side of the steps going up is loose which was a worry.
Jul 21, 2026
Our cabin was dirty- floors dirty, garage under the beds, counters were nasty (we had to wipe them down), cob webs. Bathrooms were really taken care of. A soap dispenser was empty for 2 days, a stall didn't have toilet paper for a day. Luck if they were cleaned once a day. They use to be cleaned at least twice a day. The Red Pine was closed a lot. I could say me. Travis step up your game.

It was a little disappointing this year.. The ice ream shop/pizza shop was closed. The tubing was not available for the kids and grand kids. We stayed in cabin KL5 and the shower handle broke. Luckily we were leaving the next day. We have been there each summer for the past 12 years and this was our worst experience. But I would also have to say the staff this year was very nice and courstey.

We were just at KOA in Hayward Wi and we were not impressed. We have been going to that camp ground for many many years. Our cabin was dirty, the shower and toilet were never cleaned. Some of the staff was very rude. The red pine place was closed more than it was open. It for sure has gone down hill. Which is very sad cause we love that place so much. Hopefully it will turn around soon.
Jul 20, 2026
Seemed poorly manage and dirty. My family has stayed there for many year, but it was not the same as it use to be. The ice cream/food shack closed a few times so we couldn't access it. Staff were not as friendly and it was dirtier then it has been in the past.
Jul 20, 2026
The cabin itself was great, but it was filthy. It had NOT been swept out at all before we arrived, and when I used the broom provided, I swept up dog hair and dust bunnies from underneath all the beds. It was gross. I know it was a "rustic cabin," but nothing had been cleaned for a considerable amount of time.

The Hayward KOA was different since we started coming with our children, grandchildren and now great grandchildren. We were there Monday to Thursday. Red pine wasn’t open for snacks and ice cream cones, no evening Hayrides, store had limited items. Plant on deck was almost dead, grill was disgustingly old and filthy Cabin was clean- air worked great! Pool was clean.
Jul 18, 2026
No tubing and no water slide. All of us come to go tubing. Have been coming almost 20 years and have gone tubing every year except this year. Should have informed campers that major attractions were not an available.
Jul 18, 2026
I'm really disappointed in the way this once beautiful campground has deteriorated. As former workcampers there several years ago I was looking froward to going back there with family to camp. I have lots to say about it but site limits how much I can say. Cabin was filthy. Grounds not taken care of very well. Very limited office hours and no food or ice cream at the Red Pine during the week.

We have been coming to the Hayward KOA for 9 years. It’s honestly disappointing to see how the campground is now. The facilities themselves are no longer maintained. Filthy cabin with mouse droppings. The pool was filthy each day with lots of hair. There was not very many people there to make that amount of hair. The arcade and water slide are no longer. No amenities during the week offered.
Jul 16, 2026
We were disappointed to arrive and find out many of the amenities we were used to over the years were now only offered on weekends. I hope that things turn around for the Hayward KOA, it used to be one of our favorite destinations.

Our lodge was nice, but we had to do lots of cleaning upon moving in. Later, the manager listened and made good by discounting one night's lodging fee for the problem. Swimming pool is nice, but needs more shade. Mini golf needs sprucing up. We miss the ice cream and Red Pine breakfast. We were there Sunday-Wednesday. We've been camping at the Hayward KOA since 1974.
Jul 16, 2026
Nothing was open or available. No water slide, no game room, front office closed at 5pm - we showed up at 6pm. No food available on site. This is not a Holiday KOA and should not be labelled as such.
Jul 15, 2026
They need more help and need to proactively make sure all aspects of the campground are in good working condition.
Jul 14, 2026
Have been coming for 13 years. This time we were very disappointed. Dirty pool and bathrooms. Unprofessional staff. Short hours for both the office and red pine

We've been coming for 20 years and l9ved it. The past 2 have been awful. The cabins were dirty. Setting up tubing was disorganized and took way to long. The staff that we had personal interactions with were great as always
Jul 14, 2026
We have been coming to Hayward KOA for over 30 years . Last year was bad. But this year was even worse. We love the staff that is there (Glend; Travis etc). But they need more help!,,,, the place could not keep up with the limited staff. Ice cream shop was barely open. How do you keep telling your kids. “ we will get some next time we are down there” and then it is closed we should get r
Jul 13, 2026
Had a great time. Staff was very responsive to requests.
Jul 10, 2026
We come every year for the last 5 years. Disappointed about the water slide, arcade, tubing and Red Pine not being open during our normal Sunday-Wednesday stay while still paying full price as we do every year but the kids had fun with what was open. Will plan to stay again next year but hopeful the other amenities will be available for us!

Very disappointed with our stay this time. Restrooms were dirty, men’s bathroom toilet kept clogging and over flowing. It took days for the messes to be cleaned. Sites should be more groomed. The Red Pune wasn’t open on 2 of the days we were there. And lastly, please ask your staff to slow down when driving those golf carts around. There are children running around everywhere.

We had a cabin and a camp site. Camp site was fine. Cabin was filthy when we arrived. Tooth paste all over sink and mirror. Coffee dried on counter by coffee pot. Dish washer did not work. Walls were filled with finger prints. Fridge was so large you could hardly get into hallway. Could also leave some household items since we pay so much to use the cabin. Should be more like airbnb.
Jul 03, 2026
We had a great time & will be back as always!!
Jul 02, 2026
Firewood was not brought to site, had to request. No coin change for laundry, had to go to town to get change. Showers were untidy.
Jul 01, 2026
Nice little cabin with hot water & good AC! However, it looks like things are winding down there a little too much for us. No arcade. No waterslide. No tubing. 3 big activities that we always looked forward to. It was some great memories but the bounce pillow is the only real draw now.
Jun 30, 2026
Like that you provide a number of sleeping cabins at a reasonable price. We will be back!

Enjoyed the stay. Kids liked the pool, jump pad, and playground area…bathrooms were meh and needed some TLC. The mini golf course was a joke and not worth $3 each to play. The small cabin was perfect for the stay and very clean, minus the very musty smell.

Awesome people! Had problems with our RV and they helped us immensely. Very friendly and professional! Willing to help travelers in need. 10+ stars!!
Jun 16, 2026
Very friendly staff and fun activities for kids. Our cabin was very dirty unfortunately. Bathroom looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a couple stays, windowsills were dirty filled with dead bugs and it had a strange smell to it.

We have previously loved this campground but the past few years have been rough. This year they failed to let us know that the waterslide and tubing wouldn't be available. We also did not have WiFi all weekend long and had multiple issues with our A/C unit and hot water. We really struggled to enjoy our time this year and, sadly, will not be returning.
Jun 08, 2026
The activities, staff, and affordability were amazing. However, the cleanliness of the bathrooms was a pain point for us.

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.
