Campground Reviews

Jun 15, 2026
We were here 2 years ago and greeted with a very enthusiastic team. I believe they were new owners/managers. They were very eager to improve the grounds and make our stay wonderful. We returned this week and happy to see the same friendly, enthusiastic team. The improvements look great and they continue to work at making it even better. We love the quiet, quaint park on the Echo Creek.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is wonderful to hear your return visit felt just as welcoming as your first. Our team will be glad to know their enthusiasm and care stood out. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to having you back by Echo Creek.

Great location, clean restrooms, wonderful camp activities, good office hours, awesome camp store. This KOA went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable! Will definitely be back! Highly recommend!!

When we checked in the people at the desk were super friendly and the guy that led us to our campsite in his little golf cart was also very super friendly. it's a little compact and maybe people with a large camper might be concerned but we were in a tent and we thoroughly enjoyed our campsite. Bathroom next to our tent site was very clean. Pool was very well kept and clean. Thank you!

Clean, friendly, easy access and nice surroundings. A bit expensive but if you want to stay in the Tahoe area all other RV parks are as high.

The spot was terrible, in full sun at the front of the park. There was very little privacy between the people surrounding us and the cars driving by all hours of the night. For the cost of a hotel I was very disappointment in this KOA.

This KOA needs to post their signage out on the highway, not in the campground entry. I chose a patio site but wasn’t pleased that it had a rock preventing us from parking closer to the patio.

first off let me state I had a medical emergency the third day of our stay the staff were simply wonderful they were helpful and made us feel that special feeling of home at the KOA that normaly you would not feel. i wish I had the ability to grant the a raise! There constant checking on us we are over 75 and they were aware that we might need a hand THEY WERE THAT HAND.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Your note reflects such a meaningful experience, and our team will be grateful to know their kindness made a difference. We are glad you felt well cared for throughout your stay and would be happy to welcome you back.

My husband and I stayed at Lake Tahoe KOA. We arrived 30 minutes before the check-in time and were able to check in quickly. Staff was super friendly and they were able to take us to our camp site without any issue. Restrooms and showers were super clean. No issues throughout our stay at all. Will look to visit again soon!
Jun 07, 2026
The checking staff was great, helpful and courteous. The wooded site we had was tight and uneven. The activities were fun but didn’t always match the schedule. The nightly price was almost the highest we have paid at a KOA. Certainly the highest we paid for that kind of site.
Jun 05, 2026
Clean and well kept, which is always the KOA standard. Located right on Highway 50 which is well travelled, so there was a lot of road noise until later in the evening each night. The staff was very helpful, including the maintenance team who helped us back in to a very tricky spot. Thank you!

Stayed a couple of days. Nice facilities and staff. Some road noise from the highway. Very wooded and a nice stream beside some campsites. I would definitely go back.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Stephen, thank you for your kind words, we are so happy you enjoyed your stay with us! The creek is one of our favorite places to relax, we're glad you liked it too!!!

THE COST PER NIGHT IN OUR RV WAS THE MOST EXPENSIVE WE'VE EVER PAID FOR A KOA CAMPSITE. THE STAFF WERE HELPFUL AND VERY FRIENDLY, THE FACILITIES WERE KEPT CLEAN AND THE POOL, THOUGH SMALL WAS VERY NICE AND HEATED PERFECTLY. WE HAD A WONDERFUL FAMILY TIME

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Hi Robin, thank you for coming to leave us this feedback, we love to hear when guests had a great time!! We are happy to hear things were fabulous for your stay! Until next time, Safe travels!

Super nice staff. Very helpful. Bathrooms were about average for a KOA. They were kept clean. The only things I did not like was a lot of road noise and the really cool campsites by the water said no RV’s.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is great to hear how helpful the staff was during your stay. We are glad the clean facilities and friendly service stood out. We understand the road noise and site limits can be disappointing. We look forward to welcoming you again.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is great to hear you enjoyed your stay. We are glad the pool, clean grounds, and fresh fruit around the property added to your visit. Your kind words mean a lot. We look forward to welcoming you again.

It’s my absolutely first time to go with a RV and Lake Tahoe was the first stop after picking up this - at least for me - big car. So I felt really safe and secure at your place to get familiar with the new situation. The staff where so helpful in any situation. Thank you so much���I’ll stay with KOA for the rest of my journey!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is wonderful to hear how safe and supported you felt during your first RV trip. Our team is glad the guidance and friendly help made a difference. We hope the rest of your KOA journey is just as enjoyable, and we look forward to welcoming you again!

We have stayed here in the past. While the location and amenities are terrific, for a visit to Lake Tahoe, they are second only to the staff. They are attentive and helpful in every way. It’s a pleasure to visit a park where the people who run it are just as good as the place you are visiting. It makes the stay that more special.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is wonderful to read how much the staff added to your visit. We are glad the location and amenities made the stay even better. Your kind words mean a great deal to our team. We look forward to welcoming you again!
May 28, 2026
The only issue was the shower knobs. They stick out so far, I kept hitting my elbows on them and that hurt. I tried not too, but there wasn't much room to turn around. I am not a large person, 5'5" and 140 pounds. It would be nice if you replaced those knobs with shorter ones.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Oh gosh April, we're sorry to hear that! Thank you so much for the suggestion, we will pass it along! Thanks for letting us know!

The couple that was running the campground were very friendly and helpful. We had a beautiful spot we loved by the river. It was tight to get into and the gentleman that was working there helped us navigate getting into the spot. He was awesome and made it easy.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is great to hear how much you enjoyed your stay. We are glad the setting worked well and that our team was able to help you into your site. Your kind words mean a lot. We look forward to welcoming you again.

We were able to make reservations a couple weeks out. IWhen we arrived the staff were awesome. They were helpful with hike locations and were very friendly. Our spot was amazing. We car camping with a tent attached. Tent sites are away from RVs, which I love. Our spot was overlooking the river. We loved this camping location so much we already booked another trip for July!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is great to hear how well your stay came together. We are glad the staff, hiking tips, and your river overlook site made the visit special. It is wonderful that you already booked a return trip. We look forward to welcoming you again!

It was so beautiful it looked untouched. The creek behind the campground was beautiful. There was only one annoying thing, and it was all the aunt hills that were everywhere on our campsite and throughout the campground

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is wonderful to read that the untouched feel of the campground and the creek stood out during your visit. We appreciate your note about the ant hills. We look forward to having you back.

A nice, clean little chalet. Enjoyed our stay. Thanks!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks Sheryl so much for that thoughtful review! Hope you have a great summer!
May 26, 2026
Overall great experience - cabin was nice and clean, friendly staff especially lady at the store. Few issues: No wifi signal in delux cabin. Master bedroom door doesn’t close - it should have a sliding door. While good but for the price ~500 per night, highly overpriced .

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for taking the time to leave us this review, it really does help us improve the guest experience! We're so happy to hear our staff met your expectations and hopefully we'll get another chance to serve you again!

Staff was so helpful getting us into our spot. I saw that they were escorting everyone to their sites and making sure that they got parked as well. The facilities were nice and clean and pool was nice as well. Would recommend!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is great to hear how well our team supported your arrival. We are glad the escort to your site and the clean facilities helped make your stay enjoyable. Your recommendation means a lot. We look forward to welcoming you again!

Beautiful campground and area, we stayed by the stream which helped drown out the highway traffic.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is wonderful to read that the streamside site made your time here enjoyable. We appreciate your kind note and look forward to welcoming you back for another stay.

We asked to look at other available spots and found one right on the creek. The staff did an amazing job on directing our trailer in there. Very nice managers.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks Joan, we are so happy you had such a wonderful stay, listening to the creek is such a soothing experience! We hope to see you again next time!
May 20, 2026

It was very nice that an attendant was up for our late arrival. He helped us to back our RV into our site. Very appreciative for his help that evening!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Hooray for a great late night arrival as those can sometimes be tricky! We're so glad we were able to help you settle in and that you had a great stay! Until next time- Take care!

The office staff were the best, very helpful. It was expensive but then again I guess all of Tahoe is. Difficult to level. Other than that we enjoyed it.

We are so happy to hear you had a great stay!! Until next time happy trails and thank you for visiting!

Your staff was incredibly helpful. I had trouble taking down a tent and they came to my rescue. Very pleased with campground and your entire staff.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you so much for shouting out our great employees!! We hope to see you again next time! Until then happy trails

The place doesn’t have a bear box, so you have to carry everything in and out of your car. They had activities but overpriced for what they did. The staff doesn’t really do anything besides stare at you instead of saying good morning or asking if you need anything. Overall okay. Find a better place or same for a better price.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We sincerely regret that your experience was less than ideal. We truly care about our guests and aim to provide the most comfortable camping experience possible. We hope you will give us another opportunity to provide a more positive experience in the future.

We needed assistance on Sunday our last day there as we found out that the campground electrical plug was lose and had not been working. We called before 8:00 am and by the time we left at 9:00 or 9:30 no one had come to the campsite to assist us. Also the sign at the campgrounds said the office would be open periodically. I have never been to a KOA that had office hours “whenever.”

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you Sherrie for bringing these issues to our attention, we do truly appreciate you givning us the opportunity to improve guests experiences and while im not sure what happened in this situation we will look into it. thanks again

Very nice campground. The employees are very helpful and friendly. They are in the midst of upgrading the sites. Only about 15 minutes from South Lake Tahoe. Beautiful creek runs past the campground.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing this. We are glad you enjoyed the helpful and friendly team, the beautiful creek, and the comfort of the campground during the site upgrades. It is nice to know your stay was pleasant, and we would be happy to welcome you back again!

Cabin clean & stocked but w/older features which worked fine. The issue was the location. The management were staying in RVs all around us and kept their lights on all night so we couldn't walk out to see stars. The adjacent cabins had employees as well and ours was between busy roads + pool closed & the main manager left in a puff when my spouse mentioned his husband- would not recommend this.

Thanks Troy for taking the time to let us know! We are very sorry to hear that your experience fell short. Feedback like yours is invaluable and helps us improve. Thank you for taking the time to share it with us.

This was our sixth night Traveling across the country. Stayed here one night. Was one of the worst of our camp grounds and by far the most expensive camp ground we have ever stayed ($124 ) Camp sites have small broke tar pads not level, they are small and all dirt around the pad. However the showers and bathrooms were nice and clean. Booked online, my member discount was not added. Had to ask.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thomas, We are sorry that your stay with us didnt meet your expectations but we really appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your concerns as we're always working to enhance guest experience! We hope in the future to earn 5 stars, until then happy trails!

We arrived Sunday afternoon around 5pm. Our info was posted on the board, which was fine. What wasn’t fine was there was no reservation number or name on anything. The space number had been scratched out and we had no code for the restroom. I believe it was a bit early to close the office, and the information in our envelope was vague and without the restroom code. That needs to be fixed

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you Linda for taking the time to let us know about your concerns, we appreciate that!We will take all of your concerns to heart and hope you give us another try next time! Happy trails!

Way overpriced. Sandy-dirt pull through. Almost no amenities.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We're so grateful you took the time to leave us a review and let us know where we can improve! Hopefully in the future you'll come back and have a 5 star stay! Thanks again for visiting.

The campground was not crowded and the sites near the river are nice. We felt it was very overpriced for being the first weekend in May. The store claimed winter hours and was closed when we were there but yet we were paid prime season rates. Half the rate we paid would have been more appropriate.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We are glad you enjoyed the river sites and the peaceful setting. We appreciate you taking the time to offer feedback and hope you will visit again.

Very impersonal

Debbie, thank you for sharing your thoughts. Your note about the experience feeling impersonal is important, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know.

Extremely tight campground (but the guy in the office helped get us backed in). Signage is small and confusing (not used to looking to the left to see a stop sign). No set office hours during off season (wanted to purchase firewood and t-shirt). But they were always closed.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing this feedback. We are glad our team was able to assist with parking. Your notes about signage and off season office access are helpful, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience.

The campground was nice, rustic and quiet. Obviously was off season beginning of April. However the high price of 137$ night was insane when a storm hit and we had no power for 23 hours ! No compensation was offered , no one was communicating with us during our stay to inform us about the power outage. So staying 2 nights with only 6 hours of power was not cool.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing this detailed feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the quiet setting. Weather events can have a significant impact on service, and your notes about communication during the outage are important. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know.

Stayed for 3 nights, although it was early in the season, the open section of the campsite was in excellent condition. Bathrooms, showers and laundry were spotless and warm�. Highly recommend.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for the kind words. It is wonderful to hear that the grounds and facilities were in excellent condition and that you enjoyed your stay. We appreciate the recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back.

As a family travel brand, we've visited campgrounds across the western United States, and Lake Tahoe KOA stands out as a place that makes outdoor adventures easy, enjoyable, and accessible for families. One of the things we appreciated most was its location. It provides a fantastic base for exploring everything the Lake Tahoe area has to offer, while still being somewhere you're happy to return to at the end of the day. Whether you're spending your time on the lake, exploring nearby attractions, hiking, or simply enjoying the mountain scenery, the campground is perfectly positioned to make the most of the region. What also stood out was how connected the campground is to the local community. The onsite family was generous with recommendations and genuinely passionate about helping guests make the most of their Lake Tahoe visit. Through conversations with them, we discovered local businesses, activities, and experiences that we may otherwise have missed. It felt less like checking into a campground and more like being welcomed into the area by people who truly love where they live. Families will appreciate the heated pool, playground, seasonal activities, dog run, creek, and beautiful forest setting, while practical amenities like the laundry facilities and camp store make longer stays easy and comfortable. Lake Tahoe KOA is more than just a place to stay—it's a place that helps families slow down, spend time together outdoors, and experience the best of the Tahoe area. We're already looking forward to returning. — Elevated Adventure Fams

As a New Zealander visiting Lake Tahoe, this campground was exactly what I picture when I think of an iconic American family camping holiday. Staying in a Deluxe Cabin gave me the perfect balance of comfort and camping. It was clean, welcoming, and well-equipped—everything I needed for a relaxing family stay. What I'll remember most, though, is the setting. The smell of the pine trees was so fresh and distinctive that I know it will always remind me of this campground. Waking up amongst the towering trees and spending my days outdoors felt like a genuine escape from everyday life. My children absolutely loved their time here, especially exploring the creek, swimming in the pool, and playing on the playground. There was always something for them to do, and the campground struck a wonderful balance between being peaceful and family-friendly. Another thing I appreciated was how accessible and welcoming the managingfamily was. They were often around the campground, genuinely interested in making sure guests were enjoying their stay, and always happy to share recommendations or answer questions. It was clear they care deeply about the property, and I enjoyed hearing about some of the improvements and future plans they have for the campground. This was a wonderful introduction to camping in the Lake Tahoe area, and I'm already looking forward to staying again.

We first stayed here 2 years ago (and I believe it was under new ownership/management then). They were friendly, enthusiastic and intent on improving the place. We returned this week and we're happy to see the same friendly and enthusiastic team and the improvements they had made with more to come. The team was always present and working around the campground. The grounds and buildings were clean and well-kept. We loved our site (111). It accommodated our 37 ft 5th wheel and truck easily. Looking forward to returning.
