Campground Reviews

Apr 13, 2023
I don’t usually give 5 stars, but the staff did go above and beyond. There were a few hiccups but as I said, the staff made up for it. From our campsite being full of snow and needing to move, to the water needing to be shut off, needing to dig out the sewer trap, the staff was always pleasant and made sure we were taken care of. Great location great views. Will come back.

Thank you so much for giving us 5 stars. It has been a challenging Winter and Spring with so much snow.

The cabin is set on a beautiful part of the river. It is pleasant to sit on the back patio, turn in the fire pit, and enjoy the view. The kitchen has most of what you need and the cabin is nice and clean with comfortable beds.

We apologize for not meeting your expectations. Getting sites ready with the snow accumulation has been challenging. The campground officially opened on April 6th.

It was good except there were snow where we supposed to park!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We apologize for the snow. Parking lots are plowed daily. This winter has been challenging.

We never stay in Koa but this was open during the crazy snow winter. Host was super helpful and we were basically alone in the East Campground right on the river. I imagine summer here is super busy. But river right at your site would be very nice.

The cabins have just about everything you need. The outside patio over the river is amazing. Have stayed there numerous times. The staff is very friendly. The only negative is I wish they would buy new mattresses.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your comments. We are looking at replacing some of the mattresses.

Although this rating is for KOA Lava Hot Spring East, i would also like to commend Jim of KOA Lava Hot Spring West office. He was very helpful and friendly.

Everything about our stay was great except for out of the 3 Deluxe Cabins we rented, only one of the fire features on the back decks worked. We all went to the deck where the fire feature worked to roast marshmallows so it worked out, however wasted quite a bit of time and effort trying to get the other two to work.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your rating. We apologize for the fire experience situation. We have had maintenance check them. Always feel free to contact office staff or call the after hour contact number posted on the front door of the office so that we can assist you.

Only one small package of coffee. Only one key available. Info about places to eat would be nice.

Always a great place to stay. In the summer we pull our trailer and stay in the trailer site, during the winter we stay in one of the mini cabins. Close to town, friendly people, and an all-around great time.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my stay at Lava Hot Springs KOA. Last year I stayed in the RV park & this year I re-visited but stayed in their deluxe cabin. The staff, Jim and Cama,(sp?) are so helpful, accommodating, informative and pleasant. This KOA is a 10 in every way! Beautiful views no matter where you stay and the cabin is so inviting, cozy and comfortable!! I will be back!

VERY expensive for what we got. Rates should be significantly less in the winter.
Nov 21, 2022
The cabin was drafty. There was on one tiny tv. The fire pit outside had the cover frozen onto it and was unable to be used. Over all it was not as good as the cabin at the west KOA.

Nice campground, liked the spot next to the river. Walking distance to town. The train was very loud at night is my only complaint but that would be all over town.
Oct 29, 2022
Very friendly. Nice site.
Oct 26, 2022
Train noise, but this is the not KOA’s fault.
Oct 24, 2022
Great clean KOA!

The campground is well maintained and has great spots by the river. The only negative of the campground (and Lava Hot Springs in general) is the road and train noise at night. Otherwise its a first class campground and is close to some of the best soaking on the planet!

They need to level the pads as they are overly uneven, making it difficult to level a motorhome. Otherwise, everything was nice.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are looking into your comment regarding the uneven site. Thank you for your rating.

Nice level site, cute store, nice staff, close to town. The big bummer is what others have said the road next to it is loud with trucks jake braking and an occasional loud train. Shade in the premium spots is non existent. Our premium site did not have a propane grill.

Campground is great. Wide variety of site sizes to fit everyone. River sites are beautiful. Walking distance to town. Extremely clean and well kept. Two major downsides- which aren’t the fault of the owners - the proximity to the highway and railway is intolerable; and the bugs (some sort of creepy flying beetle) by the hundreds , mostly in the afternoon.

Friendly staff. Nice level pads.

I enjoy the clean facilities at this KOA. The only down side is it being so close to the highway and the loud trucks all day and all night but not the facility faultZ

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your rating. Wished that we could move the highway and train tracks but we can't. Ear plug are provided at the office.

We stayed in L46 and patio is facing the river. Very nice night bbq and fire pit experience. Close by train tracks and freeway is the downside though. The cabin was very clean and cozy. Kids loved the bunk beds.
