Frank made himself available when I needed help and wasn’t able to access shore power late at night and I really appreciate his availability especially because I was staying in the snow and without his help I don’t know what I would’ve done. Great staff great location great service. Very happy customer!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your kind words! We are so glad Frank was able to help you late at night, especially in snowy conditions. We will be sure to share your appreciation with him. Great guests like you make our job even better. We hope to see you again soon!

Sites too close together, too much highway noise and priced too high for minimal winter services.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your review. We are sorry that the site spacing, highway noise, and winter services fell short for you. We appreciate your input and will use it as we continue to enhance our park.

We stayed here in April and December 2025. Both stays were fantastic and it is noticeable that they have made many improvements. We enjoy offseason camping, so our interaction with staff was very minimal. Staff were always polite, pleasant, and available. We stayed in our 31 foot class c twice, and rented a cabin for our college kids during our December trip. Everything was fantastic.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you so much for staying with us—twice! We’re thrilled you noticed the improvements and enjoyed both your RV and cabin stays. It means a lot to hear your kind words about our team. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

This campground is a true gem! Tall pines, big boulders, and a rushing creek! This is why we camp! It’s rare to find an RV park that embraces nature so completely while still offering the convenience of full hookups. The staff takes great care of this slice of paradise. Their energy and love for the place makes you smile! And then there’s Tahoe . . . enough said!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your wonderful review! We are thrilled that you enjoyed our natural setting, full hookups, and the care our staff puts into this park. It is always a pleasure to share this special place with guests who appreciate it. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

I stayed in site 206 with a 40' 5th wheel. The camp host could have had me drive pretty much straight into the site as a pull through. Instead he had me go out and around the office and then attempt to back into the spot. That particular spot was quite narrow to maneuver around trees, a dumpster, and snow poles that was quite difficult to get around. Other than that the host was rather helpful

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad that our host was helpful during your stay. We appreciate your comments regarding the site and the maneuvering challenges. We look forward to having you stay with us again.

Fantastic, great camp site and close to town

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

This campground is easy to miss as it is located in a forested area along a busy street with no signage to alert you of its presence. The campground itself is rustic with sites located among huge boulders and tall pine trees. Big rigs face challenges. Proximity to South Lake Tahoe is good. Staff is friendly and helpful. We stayed in one of the few pull throughs. Be prepare to pay big $$$$.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the natural setting and found our staff friendly and helpful. We appreciate your notes about signage and site size and will use them to improve the experience for future guests.

Very old, poorly maintained, tiny sites, hard to get into, not big rig friendly. Services were new and worked ok. Definitely would not recommend this site, will not return, surprised it is able to maintain it's KOA status, their standards have slipped. Not worth the $95 fee for sure, better off staying in a noisy rest area.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet expectations. Your comments about site size, maintenance, and value are very helpful, and we will review them closely to make improvements.

Wifi signal was so weak, we could not connect to the service.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear about the weak Wi-Fi signal during your stay. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will work to improve the connection for future guests.

Beautiful but hard to fine spot (after dark) and not level. Bathrooms were just ok.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the beauty of the area. We appreciate your comments about finding your site and the bathrooms, and will keep them in mind as we look to improve. We hope to welcome you back again.

Friendly, clean and easy overnight stay. I wouldn’t recommend this camp site for longer stays due to being so close to the highway, very loud. Overall I was happy and so were the dogs.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Renee, glad you and the pups had a happy pit stop! Friendly is what we are going for! Come back anytime, we will greet you with a smile!

No pool (closed for season), no cable.or local channels, wifi so busy not useful, store empty, not even ice cream. To charge a KOA member $145 per night seems outrageous for a member in off season. There isn't even a shuttle to take you into town!!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for your feedback, Don. We are sorry some amenities were closed for the season and that things did not feel up to par during your visit. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts and hope you will give us another try when everything is open and in full swing!

Check in went smooth. Cabin was clean. Location was great. A little expensive, but it is Lake Tahoe after all.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for the great feedback, Janet! We are happy to hear check-in was easy, your cabin was clean, and you enjoyed the Tahoe location. It is true ... paradise does come with a view! Hope to welcome you back for another mountain getaway soon!

Overpriced for the cost to services ratio! Only 30 amp service no extraordinary amenities for $165/night on a Sunday night! Stayed at Mammoth RV for $100/night had 50 amp service, sewer, water and cable plus facilities were great! There was nothing special at this KOA to warrant the cost of staying there!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your honest feedback, Howard. We are sorry to hear that the value of your stay did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your comments regarding amenities and pricing. We are always looking for ways to improve the guest experience. We do hope you will give us another chance soon!

Tiny cramped spaces really hard to pull into. Noisy from the highway. It was comical watching people try to maneuver their trailers around corners, In between rocks and trees. Nope, not for us.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing your experience, Carie. We are sorry to hear the site layout and location did not meet your expectations. Your feedback about site accessibility and noise is helpful as we continue to look for ways to improve the campground for guests. We do hope you will stay with us again.

We stayed during shoulder season so sites were pretty empty. If the campground were full it would have been very tight. Bathrooms and camping area were very clean !

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us, Richard! We are glad you enjoyed the clean facilities and peaceful shoulder season vibes. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for another relaxing visit very soon!

This is a great KOA. Fantastic scenery, well located outside of the busy South Lake Tahoe. The day we left, we had a minor incident with our RV, and both managers jumped in to help us get on the road. We will stay here next time we visit Tahoe.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Hey Chad, We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, and happy we could lend a hand when your RV needed a little extra TLC! Thanks for the kind words and for choosing us for your Tahoe adventure. We will be ready to welcome you back next time with those same mountain views and helping hands!

WE loved staying here at this KOA, we love KOA's anyway. It was very convenient getting in and out. The restrooms were clean and the campground was fun. WE will definitely stay here again next time we are in the area.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I paid over 500 dollars and felt like I was camping in the middle of US Highway 50! 500.00 no pool, no hot tub, no WiFi, no river!! but lots of traffic noise

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand how important amenities and a peaceful environment are to our guests, and we appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention as we continue to look for ways to improve the guest experience. We hope to welcome you back in the future.

We stayed 5 days. The campground is great. Spots are a little difficult to get in and out of. The staff were quite nice. We will be staying there again.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Gary, thanks for staying with us for five days! We are glad you enjoyed the campground and our friendly staff. We appreciate your feedback about the spots and look forward to welcoming you back again soon!

Very old campground next to noisy road. Roads in campground are difficult to maneuver. Windy roads with large boulders throughout. We would not stay again. Dumpsters overflowing. Not worthy of a KOA designation.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you sharing your concerns. Your feedback has been shared with our management team as we work to make necessary improvements and ensure our campground meets guest expectations. We hope to welcome you back soon.

This was the best staff of any KOA I’ve stayed in. Very friendly and clean facilities!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you so much, Harold! We are honored to be the best KOA staff you have experienced. Friendly service and clean facilities are what we strive for, and we are glad it showed. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

Beautiful campground, great staff. Probably should unhook tow vehicle before heading to your site, pretty tight getting around with larger motor homes without dropping your toad.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for the kind words about our campground and staff! Great tip on unhooking the tow vehicle, safety first, especially with larger motorhomes. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again soon!

Very worn out and out-dated utility connections, black top is years late on re-surfacing; quite a distance out of South Lake Tahoe but very close to the highway. This site should be inspected to see if it aligns with quality control of KOA. The charge was exorbitant - $140 for the site plus a $10.00 “facility protection fee” for what? The girl at check in could not explain what this was for.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your review and for sharing your detailed feedback. We are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet expectations. Your input helps us identify areas for improvement as we work to ensure every guest has a positive KOA experience. We hope you will give us another chance in the future.

Manager was rude. 16 year old answered our questions better than the interaction with the defensive adult manager. When you book 8 RV parks it’s hard to remember everything. We knew 30 amp, we didn’t realize they didn’t have 50 amp at all. Manager lied to us about park not having 50 amp. It was at one point because there are 50 amp plugs. Love KOAs, but will never stay at this one agai

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear about your interaction with our staff and the confusion regarding the electrical hookups. That is not the level of service we strive to provide and we are looking into it. We hope you will give us another chance soon.
Sep 12, 2025
Very friendly helpful staff. Park is located directly on hwy 50 which makes it very noisy however surprisingly quite at night. Park is very close quarters making it a bit difficult to maneuver larger units.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for the kind words about our staff! We understand the highway noise can be a drawback and appreciate your understanding. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

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.
