Tent Reviews

It is a lovely campground, but they do seem to have a problem with bears. They have installed bear proof garbages, but there are still the odd regular garbage cans that provide a bear buffet in the night. As a tenter I would apprecciate bear bins.

We arrived late during the night. Check in was smooth and issue free. Bathrooms are clean with plenty of hot water. Camp store has many of the supplies in case you forgot something. Overall an excellent stay. Camp staff is very friendly and always will to provide a helping hand.

I stayed in a tent site with power. It was easy to park my vehicle at the site.

Outstanding respite for thru-hikers on the PCT or TRT. Entire staff was very accommodating and helpful.

1.the Bathrooms needed to be undated 2. If I was able to make a fire--( the fire pit was poorly put far away from table and tent.) poor design.

I was not aware of bears in the area of my KOA. I am fine with bear camping, if I know ahead of time. When I arrived, the host alerted me not to sleep in my care due to recent breaking by bears. He said a tent would be safer. I was not prepared to sleep in a tent. No provision was made for the safe keeping of food, like a bear box. The garbage dumpster was bear proof. Why weren’t the tent sites?

The camp managers are wonderful and very accommodating. They made our stay very pleasant and I would definitely come back. If you plan on camping here be aware that we are in Tahoe and bears come with the territory and are very important to the ecosystem with that noted we did have a bear come into the campsites at night, and the staff are very good at scaring them off and making people feel safe.

No bear lockers, plenty of bears. No toilet paper, plenty of toilet goers.

Awesome place with great tent camping experience.

This KOA has wonderful trees, a little stream running by the back of the property, spotless bathrooms and a very friendly staff. We stayed in a tent site near the back of the property and enjoyed the privacy. This is a much nicer place than the typical RV-parking-lot KOA. There is some noise from highway 50 but it gets a lot quieter in the evening.

The location is pretty ideal despite the tent sites being next to a heavy traffic road. However, it is badly maintained. There are a lot of dead trees which is a fire hazard, there was never any soap in the bathroom and they were regularly out of toilet paper, the showers were badly situated and gross. Overall fine for a camp site, but not nearly up to the KOA standard.

I stayed the nights of July 12th and 13th, and departed on the 14th. Both mornings, the women's restroom was either out of toilet paper (in one to two of the 3 stalls) and out of paper towel on one of the days. Also, my camp rug had been taken from my campsite, which I discovered missing the night of the 13th when I returned from my family reunion. It had been taken from my campsite.

This campsite was by far the best I've stayed at. Sites, bathrooms and showers were always cleaned. But what I liked the most is the feeling of being out in the nature and the creek that you can hear at night while you are falling asleep. Highly recommend this site in lake tahoe.

There were multiple issues: 1) Restrooms were not clean, dark, and inadequate for the size of the campsite. 2) Restrooms lacked availability of basic things like toilet seat covers. 3) Showers were dirty. Noone cleaned it. 4) The layout of the campsite was confusing because of lack of direction and signage. 5) The tent site was full of ants. 6) The campground lacked basic maintenance and

Beautiful and well maintained spot for our tent right next to a burbling, icy-cold mountain stream. Facilities were clean and working well! Swimming pool- which isn’t finished yet- looks awesome! General store offered just what campers need. Loved that it was family run, too! Great people doing a great job! Please consider bear boxes is my only ask. Your bears are polite and non- aggressive but

Very narrow site, run down facilities; and attitude front desk staffs
Jul 11, 2024
I selected and paid for a "grass pad camp site" but there wasn't any (they refunded the cost of it). I was told there was a water spiket at our site and there wasn't. I was told we could have camp fires and we couldn't. I was told the pool was going to be ready and it wasn't. On the bright side, the bathrooms were clean and very close and the river by the camp was fun to play in. Won't stay again.

Great spot! The staff is amazing, the creek is refreshing, and great location to check out other local lakes! Tahoe was packed for the 4th, so we checked out Fallen Leaf and Echo lakes. Beautiful area!

STAYED IN A TENT SITE, LOVED THE AREA RIGHT NEAR THE CREEK. WOULD STAY AGAIN THE ONLY THING I WOULD SAY IS THE RESTROOMS COULD USE A LITTLE UPDATING OVERALL WOULD RECOMMEND.

Reserved 2 sites, and was assigned 2 far away sites as soon as check-in opened around 3pm. When I asked the staff to assign us close camp sites with my friend, she gave us a group site snd charged $48 more. There was no any notice about extra charge for switching our campsites..

We had a great time. The sites are really small and very close together. The bathrooms need a little more attention and more frequent visits, they ran out of paper in the women’s bathroom several times. Now on to the positives. There’s a stream along the back of the sites, very close to everything and the managers of the KOA are super friendly and very accommodating. Will definitely stay again

Our stay at Lake Tahoe was enjoyable. For some of the tent sites they really varied by space in terms of how big the site was. They are not all equal. When we chose our site we were one of the few checked in already, I would have appreciated more freedom in choosing a site or more background about which sites were best.

Looking forward to the competition of the improvement

Sites are to small and unlevel. No amenities for the price.

Very nice new owners, and definitely a work in progress as other reviews have stated. Unfortunately I won’t consider staying there again based on cost. They squeezed us and our 17’ teardrop into a glorified tent site with our rear neighbors a mere 6’ from our window. My advice would be to only use that space as a last resort, or charge a lot less for it than the $101 I paid.

The temp got to below freezing, and we were in tents. If yall know it's going to be that cold don't let rent cling be available. We were still charged for all 3 nights even though we didn't even make it through the first night.

Customer service was amazing! Showers were great and campsite on the creek was so peaceful!

Beautiful area. Bathroom needs more frequent attention to replace paper goods. Parking area was not level. Friendly and efficient staff.

My husband and I came with our son and daughter, our sons classmate and his mother. we all had a wonderful time. Enjoyed the creek in the back saw a baby otter met some enjoyable people. It was a great time. Thank you.

The camp ground was really well kept. The bathrooms were clean. We enjoyed our tent camping spot. We will absolutely be back!

Beautiful campground currently undergoing renovations. Restrooms & showers were clean. A few simple food items in office would be a nice addition. Dump station is in an awkward area & could not be used by my class B van. Hopefully it will be moved to a more open area as part of the renovations.

Expensive for what I got

This was an amazing stay the place has come a long way and is improving every day. The shining stars are the two lovely ladies Vivian and Yerika they made sure me and my group were taken care of and are huge supporters of veterans. Will definitely be looking forward to another stay with them as our hosts.

Staff was so friendly and helpful. The campground was amazing, loved that we had a view of the river. Location is great, easy access to everything around Lake Tahoe.

The staff was very friendly! They made us feel welcomed and gave us helpful tips during our stay. I am grateful for the hospitality they gave!

Great campground and host. The creek behind our site was wonderful.

We stayed right next to the stream. I think we got the best spot on all campground. The staff was friendly and helpful. The campground was clean and beautiful. We will definitely come back to this campground again.

This is a campground that has great potential but is a work in progress. Sites are wooded and picturesque. The earth sites need to be graded and need gravel, a rain you would have you camping in mud. A couple odd sites with electric boxes at the very front of campsite requiring an electric cord longer than 25’. Bathhouse was not bad but not cleaned and restocked throughout the day.

This is the best campground we've ever stayed at! The hospitality was fantastic, super clean and well taken care of. We're traveling in a 19ft RV for our honeymoon. They upgraded our campsite complimentary so we could be secluded on the river. The river provided wonderful noise that you can hear throughout the campsite so no matter where you were it felt like you were secluded. The pool, bathrooms, general store, and laundry room were all spotless all the time. Plenty of hot water for showers and plenty of showers. They opened the store for us after hours because we forgot to buy water after a long day at the lake. They delivered everything to our site- firewood, ice, charcoal. There was a dog park for our pups. It was beautiful and will 100% be back again!! Thanks to the Perez family for a wonderful stay!

We had a great stay. Stayed recently during non peak time. Nice and quiet. Road noise was minimal and drowned by the wind through the trees and the running creek. Everything was very clean and well kept. Site 109 is super dope, and thank you for putting us there. The laundry is clean, small capacity machines, and a bit older. The dog run is fairly new, smaller, but just walk the grounds. Well shaded, many trees, but burn scare is evident. Starlink service was obstructed, but decent. Verizon cell service was solid. Very clean, well run park about 25 minutes from the lake. Pretty drive to the lake. There's a cool app that is like a tour if you feel like doing the drive around the lake. Ask the girls managing the place as they referred us (I wish I remembered names, and I'm sorry). All staff were spot on on, available, friendly, and polite. You can clearly tell that they've put in a lot of work into the park. Our site was awesome, back in, plenty of room, and all services worked. Water pressure I kept at 40 psi. Power did go out one night, but, just look up if the sky is clear! I had no issue navigating our 31 class C. A few 35+ class A's also stayed and they had no issues that I saw. Gave a Veteran's discount. Dog friendly. It was our first time in the area, and it was wonderful. We also checked out some of the other campgrounds in the area while cruising and non of them beat out this KOA's style. The drive to the lake is short, but gorgeous. We could not recommend this place more. We'll be back though again for sure! Thanks for the great stay

Loved staying here! Beautiful location next to the river and gorgeous scenery. We especially recommend if you are traveling with dogs. The staff was very kind and even gave our doggies little bandanas. Additionally the bathroom/showers were super clean and felt like home. Would stay here again!
