Everything was clean and nice, as always. 2/18/2020

Cabin was spacious (even more than we expeced) and it was very clean and comfortable. It was quiet and there was a beautiful view out the back door. 2/16/2020

Lava KOA is always our first choice. We love the small deluxe cabins. Only draw backs are there are mounts and connections for TVs on the wall but no tv and the furnace was pretty loud. Other than that no complaintsï¿½ 1/24/2020

Cabin #5 was awesome with a great view. 1/20/2020

This was 3 rd time we have stayed in the deluxe cabins. They were just as will kept at the first time. Love them and would stay there 4th time. 12/31/2019

We really enjoyed our stay here. The cabin was clean and comfortable and not far from Main Street Lava. We appreciated the caretaker who put out the rock salt on the porch after it snowed. Check-in/check out was very easy 12/30/2019

The KOA at Lava Hot Springs is nice, it is clean and the cabin we stayed in was just the right size for all of us, my husband and I got there later than the rest of my family and the employee who checked us in let my family in the cabin before we arrived, which was very kind... 11/26/2019

Very comfortable 11/19/2019

We have stayed at this campground for many years. The beautiful setting as well as the annual improvements to the campground keep us coming back. We stayed in a cabin this year and loved it. The staff is very helpfuly, friendly and seemed to enjoy their jobs... 11/4/2019

I had originally made reservations at the City Center KOA but their riverside campsites were closed for the season but the deskclerk graciously let me change to the nearby Holiday KOA so I could stay riverside. GREAT customer service!!! 11/4/2019

Great location. Just outside of town traffic but plenty close enough to walk in... or drive. Loved the river. 11/1/2019

Very nice cabin and location with a river just beyond the back door. Within easy walking distance to the big warm springs. Would have been much nicer stay if the weather had been warm (snowed in late October)... 10/29/2019

Beautiful place. Very nice people. 10/27/2019
