Very clean park. Only draw back the park is very close to the highway and train tracks very noisy

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately our valley is small and the train and traffic noise seems loud. Ear plugs are courteously provided at the office.

The cabin we stayed in was very comfortable. I felt safe and warm with freezing temperatures outside. It was close to the restroom building. I like the individual restroom combo with shower, not stalls. If the weather was warmer, I would of used the outside stove and grill. We had our soak in the Lava HotSprings nearby. We will definitely stay longer next time. Definitely family friendly

Had a beautiful site. We only stayed one night but enjoyed it very much. The lady that checked us in was very pleasant and professional. It was wonderful that you stayed open later as we arrived after 7:00pm. Thank you for staying open after 7:00 pm!

Nice, clean place. Some sites are right by road/tracks, and the nose is considerable, but not much to be done about being in a canyon. Prices aren't cheap, but reasonably and easy stay walking distance to hot springs.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. We do provide free ear plugs in the office to help soothe the railroad and highway noise.

Loved the Lava Hot Springs KOA. I wish the weather had been a bit better, because we were looking forward to tent camping on the little beach next to the river. Fortunately, we were able to upgrade to a sleeper cabin for our two night stay to get us out of the weather, which was also awesome. The mattresses were very comfortable. And the best part is it is a quick walk to the hot springs.

Thank you for your review. We are pleased that your upgrade and accommodation was comfortable and met your expectations.

First time ever that I have been charged to have a pet in my own RV. That is honestly the most ridiculous thing.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. We are hoping that you took advantage of the safe paw pen area and pet waste stations provided in the campground. We strive to make our guests and their pets stay enjoyable.

The cabin was cozy and clean. Could have used another roll of tp and some soap for the bath area. There was a very deep andj dangerous crack on the back patio slab and we were afraid to walk on it as we thought it might fall and we didn't want to get hurt. It also made the area a bit more confining as we had to move the metal furniture around. We enjoyed being near the river and waterfall ,

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your review. We appreciate you bringing the concrete crack to our attention and have passed this information onto our maintenance department. Please never hesitate to contact the office if you have concerns or needs during your stay. We would have gladly accommodated you.

Very peaceful and relaxing i hope I can do it again

Excellent surroundings, easy to get to and close to everything. They do a great job keeping the grounds in great shape! It was a pleasure to camp at KOA East Hot Lava Springs, ID.

Our stay was amazing and the people were very friendly and easy to communicate with. The rooms were where beautiful and our stay was wonderful.Thank you so much Sincerely Carolina Tafoya

Our site was perfect, right on the water. We sat and mindlessly watched the waterfall while enjoying the sun. place was very clean. Showers were awesome. My only complaint is the road and train noise which KOA can’t control.
Mar 30, 2026
This is our second time staying here. We absolutely love it here! The cabins are spacious and clean. They have great amenities for the cost. The patios are so relaxing with the sound of the river right next to you. We were certainly be back!

This KOA wasn’t a favorite of ours. While it’s closer to the hot pools, the trail to get there feels unsafe especially when walking it at night. It’s very close to the road and no lighting. We will go back to staying at the KOA West.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We understand your safety concerns and try to remind guests walking the trail along the transportation right of way to carry flashlights or use the flashlight on their phones. We're glad you found a location that better suits your preferences. We truly appreciate your input.

We were in the upper part of the campground. There was really not much shade or view, but we did like the quiet. The site was really hard to back into because of the way the road was in front of it. The laundry and restrooms where we were were down. We were fine. There was not many amenities included.
Mar 25, 2026
Nice and quiet, except for car and train traffic which can't be helped. It was the off season. Best time to be at a KOA. Friendly 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.
