bathrooms were broken but otherwise great stay.

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.

This was our 13th annual trip. The grandkids love it every year. Having porta potties instead of bathrooms was a bummer. We still miss all the Saturday games in the field, and it gets more expensive to pay for everything while we’re there. BUT the grands were happy.

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!

My family and I have been camping at the Hayward KOA for years. This was the first year that I have ever been disappointed. The price of wood is unaffordable. The toilets weren't in working order. There were many broken things, playground equipment, corn hole boards. Our neighbors were very loud and disrespectful after quit time. I hope there are improvements made!

Very friendly staff. Great place to stay. Pool and playground and pillow pad was a blast

We were placed at a tent site that was basically under the waterside and adjacent to the freeway. When sitting at our fire, if the wind blew we would get misted with water from the slide. The pool was pretty much standing room only, and it wasn't even an extremely hot day. Growing up, it felt like a family-friendly place. Now, it feels like an over-crowded cash grab.

Cool place to stay. Bathrooms were far away from our tent and out of order so we had to use porta potty’s. Pool was small and full most of the weekend with no where to sit. Shower houses are outdated

People that worked there were great, way too crowded. Our cabin was really nice and clean.

everything was awesome except for quiet hours not being enforced. Other campers were extremely loud, drinking and partying until way past midnight.

The tent site was very nice with grass, flat and lovely annuals in planters. Bathrooms and swimming pool were clean. Loved the pool and mini golf was fun. Yapping dogs in RV's were annoying when owners were gone and left them alone for hours. Nearby RV had strings of bright lights on 24/7 that spread out to our tent site ruining the outdoor camping effect and looking more like the city at night.

A lot for kids to do. But when your bathrooms don’t work it makes camping with a toddler more difficult especially at night. Also consider ending loud music before 10. Pool doesn’t seem heated either.

Our stay was great!!! Actually, we travelled next to the KOA ”journey” in Wetmore/Munising, Michigan… and to say it best, it is a COMPLETE night and day difference. I have always enjoyed KOA, but was surprised at Wetmore. Hayward is PERFECT. We have 3 kids ages 11, 13 & 15 and each of them has something to do and didn’t complain once. Staff was friends, Tabby was SUPER helpful as was Glend

The staff are amazing. The activities for kids and the number of families there was huge!! We are older and enjoyed watching the kids have so much fun. And what always surprises me is how quiet it gets in the campground after 10pm EVERY NIGHT

The sites are so small there is barely any parking. We had to park on one of the "streets" between rows of sites. Good thing we didn't bring a second vehicle. I know it's pet friendly but dogs being allowed to bark from 6am to midnight is too much. Plenty of staff was going around to notice the excessive barking by two particular dogs and NOTHING was done.

Camp ground very nice, level site. Well cleaned and lots of trees for shade.

Great KOA SITE! BUT The only thing that was an issue was a group of campers were playing their music so loud that you could hear it throughout the whole camp site. Their music was explicit singing about body parts, sex, and vulgar words. Many complaints were brought to the staff. This happened multiple times with this group and it took a while for security to respond.

the main restroom/showers ended up being closed two of the 4 day stay- was frustrating there wasn't another option besides walking across the campground to the other facility. Otherwise IT WAS AN AWESOME PLACE!!! my kids had a blast.

Great KOA!

We stayed at a deluxe tent site for 2 nights after labor day. It is a great place for a family with kids. Has a big playground, mini golf, and a jumping pillow, plus a few more things. Had flushable toilets and showers. Looking forward to staying there during the summer to is the pool and water slides.

It was so fun to be surprised about the Halloween theme weekend! Employees were polite, helpful, patient, and all about making it a fun time for the kids. We were with new campers and they were treated with kindness and help with a lightbulb that needed replacing on their electric tent site.

My 4 and 6 year old loved the pool, jumping pillow, big slide, playground, and mini golf - pretty much all of it! Every staff we talked to was kind and helpful. All around great experience.

We love it here!! We will be back!

Tent sites are extremely small with barely room for a tent. You could reach out and touch your neighbors. No parking space and very difficult to maneuver a car. Staff was very friendly and the bathrooms were clean and well supplied. Not my kind of camping but probably good for little kids.

Space was great, staff was excellent! The kids loved the activities! It does need more bathrooms though, it was always the longest line to shower in the morning.

We enjoyed our stay there. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The only issue we had really was the the camp sights were so close together that our neighbor smoked us out with their campfire.

Cloudy and wet, nothing you can do about that.

It was our first-time camping at a KOA. So, it was a treat, the kids and grandkids loved it! Even our dogs enjoyed the dog park. We all took advantage of the amenities of the camp store, what an asset! My only suggestion would be a designated area for dogs by the pool and playground. I was at the campsite with the dogs and not able to watch the grandkids in these areas. But planning for next yr.

What a great place to stay for vacation! Will definitely be back. They kept the bathrooms clean, all amenities were well taken care of!

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The tubing down the river staff was great as well. We changed our reservation to an hour later and they did it with ease for us.

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.
