The staff were very friendly, and the facilities were clean. They were still doing a lot of work to get the place set up; I think it had been closed for a while. But there was no impact to us except that the pool wasn't open yet. The playground was better for little kids, but there was a creek on the property that offered a great "playground" for older kids.

I had a nice stay; the staff was friendly, location was good, and the campground was a good to walk my dog. I know improvements are underway as it was not open for several years, but the dirt entrance holes are signficant and better signage for the exit would help as well as marking or warning people if boulder issues exiting certain sites. I.e. 109; the guys were helpful guiding me off a boulder.

We really enjoyed our three night stay! The people running the KOA were so nice and helpful. Took us to our space and helped us back in. There was always someone driving around cleaning up or that you could ask a question of. We had a creek side space, so we were able to hear the running water all the time. There is some traffic noise from Hwy 50, but after awhile we didn't even notice it.

The road is a little tight for bigger rigs but we made it through with a 30' motorhome pulling a car. The road noise wasn't bad at all and I loved the forest feel.

I have a stayed at 100’s of KOA and this was probably the worst KOA my family and I have been too. Fire ban with no prior notice which stopped us from cooking any of the food we brought. There was nothing to do onsite like all the other KOA’s. Couldn’t use the pool as it looked like it had not been clean in months. It was very disappointing. ���

The staff were so nice. The koa was small, tight, and lacked amenities for the price. The bathrooms needed an update. They need a dog park as we had others camper’s dogs make messes at our campsite. Also the added $12.99 protection fee should be added to the total not added on later.
Sep 10, 2023
It was Allright but the fact that fire burn was banned was not called for people should be responsible for controlling charcoal and fire pit fires in my oppinion.

It was advertised as in South Lake Tahoe but is not. It is a drive both ways to get to the lake. The pool was not usable. I was very disappointed.

Dumpsters were never cleaned. Bathrooms ran out of toilet paper.

The staff and camp host were amazing very personable and helpful. Unfortunately our trailer didn't fit in the resort very well. They are currently remodeling but still keep the areas clean and maintained.

The setting of this facility is beautiful and has a creek running by and beautiful, mature trees. However, the electrical is on the older side and the roads are tight. Roy was awesome and helped us when our electrical wouldn’t work and the staff was great helping us back our 40 foot motorhome into a space. Overall I would say the staff is fabulous but the place needs some upgrading. Location goo

The sites are pretty, but also very tight. You are also right next to the freeway, so you hear the road all the time. We have a 33 foot trailer and the site was extremely hard to navigate. I would think you would carefully select spots for longer trailers. There was very nice employees that helped us navigate the small turning radiance to get in. It was also expensive for not very many amenities.

First time in Tahoe , everything was conveniently nearby The staff was super friendly! The campground was well kept and clean. From laundry room to the tether ball and ice cream it was a great stay! Loved the 361/362/363 campsite! The small river running nearby was beautiful , just wished it wasn’t raining during our stay. GREAT PLACE! Definitely coming back!

NO wifi, only a few sites get Wifi, and they don't tell you that - garbage everywhere, bathrooms and showers were a mess. In all my travels from Canada, Washington, to Texas I've always stayed at a KOA since they're clean and safe....not this one.
Sep 05, 2023
No Pool, Wi-fi seldemloy and for all this far to expensive! Very nice and ambitious team trying to make a real KOA out of it, but during doing up guest should be informed about that on the website and get refund or lower prices
Sep 04, 2023
This is a new KOA and they are working hard to make it really nice. Our original site was right by the office where they were doing some work. I have a nervous dog and they were able to move us to a quieter area of the park. Great staff and very accommodating! Roads are tight through the park but staff is able to help get you in your spot.

This place is a work in progress. Very basic. Friendly staff. Campsites are very closed together. Near the freeway, but noise didn't bother us at all. Trash dumpsters fill up and overflow quickly. New picnic tables have been placed throughout. Additional dumpsters might be helpful. Beautiful setting and you can tell the owners are trying to get it cleaned up.

Lower tree limbs and bushes need to be trimmed so they don’t rub on the rv’s. Spaces are tight but the workers there know how to direct you into your spot safely. Very nice people.

The camp ground is in a group of trees which makes gor beautiful scenery ! The spots are close together like all KOAs. The staff is very helpful and friendly. They are doing some construction so when it's all done I'm sure it will be even prettier!

A bear broke into my (locked) car and stole my dog’s kibble. I’m sorry I had to leave early, leaving quite a bit of broken glass on the ground near the car — even more on the back seat! Nevertheless, it was a very nice stay, a good campsite and very clean facilities— just what I needed to end a camping trip before heading down to the big city!

Extremely narrow lots, nearly impossible to enter without damaging your RV.
Aug 23, 2023
We stayed in an RV site along the creek. Loved the site. Only drawback was noise from the highway. I know there’s nothing they can do about it but other than that we had a really nice time. It’s definitely more like a campground. We love Tahoe!
Aug 23, 2023
Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Pool was unfortunately closed, but it looked like they were trying to get it up and running. Some sites were a bit cramped. Bathrooms were clean.
Aug 22, 2023
The campground ground is not ready to be open. There is so much work that needs to be done before camping people should be allowed. Too many items need to be fixed. The employee who lead us to our site had to help us get in our spot. We could never have done it with out him. A pull through should be just that. This was not the case. There wasn't enough room to do it without a guide. ETC

Great potential, but not there yet. Nice staff.
Aug 21, 2023
It was very noisy being next to highway 50. The site spots were small and too close together. Finally, it was too expensive for the campground. If it was like 70.00 a night but it ended up being more like 158.00 a night which was ridiculous.
Aug 21, 2023
Everyone there was very friendly & helpful, which was very much appreciated since I an a new trailer owner & still learning. The lication was right next to the highway and you could definitely hear the traffic - but the staff's presence & consistent offers to help overcame the negatives do to traffic noise.
Aug 21, 2023
Pool was unusable. Facilities were dirty and it was WAY OVERPRICED!
Aug 19, 2023
The facility was in complete disrepair. Plus they charged an astronomical amount per night over $150 per. Pool looked like it's been broken for decades. Sites are so close don't have room for even a picnic table. Staff was nice, probably because they were all laughing themselves to the bank.

Loved it- nice managers, beautiful creek right behind some sites. Great hiking nearby. A negative is the 89 highway noise but we didn’t hear it sitting outside when we were by the creek. Some slots are tight due to trees. Ours was level but the site next to us was not. Sewer connection was too high for our trailer but that was reported and it’s something they can address.

Campground is a work in progress. It's under new ownership & management and they are getting it back to where it should be. It is in a beautiful location with trees but lots of road noise. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Very EXPENSIVE $149.88/night. Then when we checked in we were charged an additional $12 per day for a Facility Protection Fee and $5 per day for our dog! No KampK9.
Aug 16, 2023
The staff is super and working very hard to bring this campground back to prime. They still have work to do, but I'll bet that next year the facilities will be much better. The internet connection is weak, but the woodsy setting was just what we needed.

Old school camping in Lake Tahoe! Unlike a few of the KOA's we've stayed at, Lake Tahoe KOA was simple camping missing the frenzy of children's activities. We really enjoyed our stay and used the campground as base camp for exploring in and around the lake. We wish to extend our sincere appreciation to Layla (manager) for being "on it" whenever we had a concern! She was awesome!
Aug 15, 2023
Overpriced to begin with. Not the worse koa I've stayed in but close. Booked a pull thru, put in my rig, 39 foot and towing. They put me in a spot that was so tight it took me 20 minutes to jockey it around to get in position and manager just watched from the office. In plain view was a large pull thru that sat vacate my complete stay. Manager offered no help. Bye bye koa, no more, I'm done
Aug 15, 2023
nice campground near the river but could use an upgrade in the bathrooms/showers and the pool could be cleaned up and opened...
Aug 15, 2023
Very helpful, courteous and clean.

Great location and pleasant staff. Sebastian was professional and informative!
Aug 14, 2023
Expensive for what is offered.
Aug 14, 2023
Easy to miss entrance, pool was closed, sites were tight and rocky, access road super narrow, trees near roadway not limbed up leaving stripes on rv, dump station in a bad place, playground for kids is pretty much useless, not worth the $111 per night fee, won’t stay here again. I expected a KOA Lake Tahoe to be better.
Aug 14, 2023
The campground was nice and the staff friendly but the area is too close to the highway so there was a lot of traffic noise day and night. Also, there are no bear boxes so having a bear encounter was a constant issue.
Aug 14, 2023
Outstanding The staff was very helpful. Campground was quiet and relaxing We tent camped and Bear activity was high but as long as you follow the staffs directions your good

Beautiful location, friendly staff, crowded spots and difficulties with electric hookup.
Aug 10, 2023
We waited over 30 minutes to check in because nobody was at the office. Bathrooms completely unstocked, no TP, papertowels or soap. Bathrooms / showers were dirty. Only saw them cleaned once in the 5 days we stayed. Pool was closed. Staff was smoking tobacco & marijuana right next to our spot. Overall it was a total letdown. Understand they are just reopening, but not an excuse for all the issues.

I have mixed feelings about this KOA. It is in the process of coming back to life after years of being closed. Pros: beautiful mature trees along a creek, availability, vacancy, playground. Cons: price, Hwy 50 noise, small clearances between mature Pines for RV’s, roads narrow, pool closed for repair, no pet area. Recommend they focus on tent camping & upgrading common areas for guests.
Aug 09, 2023
The most expensive KOA experience with so little service ! My sit was so small I had barely 10cm on each side to park my 25 ft RV. No swimming pool and no discount for it. Super poor WiFi connection. Showers were old. The only positive thing was the staff, friendly.

Fantastic Campground. There is a wild and scenic river that flows through the campground. Might even see a Bear or two. Very friendly staff. Excellent customer service. Conveniently located off a main road. A must stay!

Amazing experience driving through HWY 50 and meeting the Blizzard ( Mother nature). I enjoyed tremendously the masterpiece she was composing. Caltrans did a fabulous job clearing the road, and the collaboration between people was amazing.

Absolutely great time tent camping with the kids and dogs in the snow. The service was a 10/10. Would recommend.
