Staff was very friendly and welcoming. All hookups worked without issue. Some highway and train noise but nothing crazy. Overall it was a great stay. Town is wicked close which was nice.

Love this KOA. Everyone is friendly, the camp and the facilities are top notch, the only issue... the road noise is extremely excessive. So, if you do not mind tons of traffic noise take a look at this place.

Very nice campground! Clean, updated and large. We had a great space with lots of room. Only negative is train noise which every campground in the area could hear.

Fantastic stay! Great location, walking distance to town with a path along the river to get you there. Cabin was new and very clean. Beds and temperature were perfect and comfortable. The camp store also had everything we needed! There was a very nice dog run, kids playground, and kitchen area (for tent camping) We had a great time and can't wait to go back.

Kicking off our camping season with KOA East in Lava Hot Springs! Thank you so much to the staff for always making us feel welcomed and part the family. You’re all awesome and very accommodating!

Was a last minute plan, the campground was very well taken care of. We enjoyed the site right off the river

The park was absolutely immaculate. The springs were wonderful. The restroom facilities were fabulous. Our only problem that we incurred was this was the first park ever that charged us six dollars per day per pet and we had four pets other than that it was wonderful.

I booked my stay online. I booked a spot that was $59. When I checked in I was told there was a fee for my dogs no problem understandable. Then she gives me my total. My pet fee was $20! I stay at KOA often & never have i paid a 40% increase for my dogs. When I questioned her she said it's the rules. It is a nice campground but be aware if you have dogs.

The cabin we rented was clean and the space was exactly as described. I’d give five stars if the water actually got hot and beds were even a little bit comfortable!

Campground itself was great but the road and train noise was terrible.

Great campground, river is beautiful and peaceful. Nice little patio with table and chairs and fire pit. Super clean restrooms. Wish we stayed longer, loved it!. Train track close by but we didn’t mind it, plus we have a toddler who just thought it was a riot! 5min walk to springs and town.

Such a great group of ladies in the office so helpful and friendly. A special request for my granddaughters birthday was made and they accommodated us with no problem. Would definitely stay again the campground is so clean and beautiful. Cabin L49 was clean well maintained and well stocked. So glad we came here and will be back again. Thanks!�

Beautiful cabins. Perfect for anyone who likes fall asleep to the sound of a river flowing.

Came in late. Quiet and clean. Noticed the new flag!

Property features and amenities are fine. Simply to close to highway and railway tracks, results in unacceptable noise levels. There are several campsites in the area and this one is no doubt the worst for noise levels.

We enjoyed it very much. Great , couldn't get the cabin gas fireplace to work. Kinda wish there was a locking front gate as partiers and late night ppl from hot springs drive in and outconsistently weekend nights.

Please, please never hesitate to call the front desk if you have any issues. Office staff are trained to explain the steps to light the grill and would have immediately called maintenance and/or a manager to respond.

Return customer, love this place!

I'm sure you have heard the positives. Negatives: many of the blinds We had to open and close them by moving each individual slat. No light switch for the kitchen and sitting room as separate. The kitchen appliances WERE FILTHY DIRTY AND DISGUSTING. Frying pan, toaster and hot plate all dirty with food on them. Buy new ones yearly. Embarrasing and not in line with what we paid. Discount requested

We stayed in one of the small cabins. It was perfect for a little getaway. Super cozy and walkable distance to hot pool and restaurants. We loved our stay!

I've had multiple stays here and keep coming back! Great Cabin, lovely view, highly recommended.

The only thing that I don’t like is so close to road with no wall to dampen street noise. Cars driving by 24 - 7 @ 55mph. The train also runs a lot at night but not a deal breaker. Everything else was awesome, including the staff.

As a VIP member, this has been the best park in the system in five years.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Lava Hot Springs KOA! The campground is beautiful, the amenities are fantastic, and everything was clean and well maintained. We ended up arriving a day early and had two different campsites during our stay, but the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us and made the transition from one site to the other incredibly smooth. Their customer service was outstanding, and we had zero problems throughout our visit. We truly enjoyed our time here and appreciated how friendly and helpful everyone was. We will definitely be coming back and would highly recommend Lava Hot Springs KOA to anyone looking for a great camping experience!

Great place to stay. Lots of activities around the area. Perfectly located out of the busiest areas, yet close to everything you need. Staff is great and facilities were very clean! Bathrooms are a good way to judge how well kept a place is and they're nice and clean. There is a train track that runs parallel to highway right next to the location, but nether were too much to handle.
