Welcome to Lava Hot Springs West KOA, located downtown at 89 N. Center St. Exit off of Hwy 30 under the water slides. We are the closest campground to the Olympic-sized swimming pool and water park.

Lava Hot Springs KOA West offers lodging, camping and glamping accommodations during any season of the year. If you plan to stay during the summer season, make your reservation 6 months ahead. This campground is centrally located to all the fun-filled activities, which makes it very popular. The footbridge located over the Portneuf River makes for a fast and easy access to the water park from any campsite. The World Famous Hot Springs are only 3 blocks away and open year round. With many new renovations still in the near future, we'd like to announce the new Pavilion is ready for private rental gatherings, or free to use with courtesy to all campers. It seats approximately 30-40 people. Our KOA provides new shower facilities, laundromat, playground, jumping pillow, dog run, gift shop/convenience store, fire pits, fishing and Wi-Fi.

Floating the natural Portneuf River is a popular adventure. Ask about tube rental discounts during your stay.

Visit www.lavahotsprings.com for the hot springs and water park rates and hours.

This was a first time stay at a KOA. The campground is beautifully located right next to the river. Very clean and well kept. Will definitely be staying here again. 9/15/2020

Very well kept and clean. It didn't happen to us but, I get the impression noise complaints are likely a frequent occurrence here. It seemed like all campers were trying to make zero noise after dark. 9/14/2020

It was very nice and friendly very quiet would stay again and let my family and friends know about it also and would stay again thank you for letting us stay 9/14/2020
