We had to make last minute arrangements as our original plan was impacted by the Montana fires. It was an awesome change. The campground was clean and close to the Lava Hot Springs... we spent 2 of the 3 evening in the hot springs. On sad it wasn't 3 evenings �.

I was in the ‘new’ section up the road, very nice and clean although no trees for shade like main campground, but very nice. Very convenient to everything in Lava Springs including a walking path out the back of the campground.

Apparently the locals don't enjoy the icrowds...horns honking all hours including the trains and your quiet time not being enforced...little sleep. The restroom is clean

There was a ton of dog poop all over by 16. My son stepped in it & had no other shoes. Aside from that we had an amazing time.

Great spot next to the river! Loved how clean the site was (especially with young kids), and how close it was to the springs and tube rentals to float the river!

Had another great stay, this time we brought our adult children and rented their families their own cabins next to us. Good conversation and great memories made sitting around the fire pit on the back porch of our cabin overlooking the Portneuf river. The camp hosts were awesome in helping us coordinate the different arrival times.

We were 500ft away from a very active train track. 9 trains that night. Should let people know b4 they reserve. We were put out on the extension across the road. The staff were awesome exspecially when my husband got call his baby brother just passed and we had to leave a day early.

The campground was clean and well-kept. Everything was pleasant. We stayed in a tent, so it was very noisy from the highway traffic and trains. But I understand that's beyond their control. Next time we'd stay in a camper

Incredibly cramped. Tiny campsites, packed in like sardines. For $125.00 it is absolutely unacceptable.

Good location, clean campground and really nice bathrooms. The bathrooms are individual so you had your own space. You could tell alot of time has been put in update and to keep the whole campground maintained. Thank you, we will make it a point to come again.

Worst KOA I've ever stayed at. First off the next morning went to the office at 8:30 to get change for the laundry (they don't have change machines) staff only had 1 roll of quarters (wash is $4.75) how far will that go. Next the train tracks are across the road and trains run day and night ( the one at 2 or 3 in the morning has engines in the front, the middle, and the end for 30 minutes.

We had a great stay at KOA Lava Hot Springs East! The location is fantastic — close to everything and easy to find. The campground itself was very clean and well-maintained, and it’s clearly set up with families in mind, with plenty for the kids to do. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. My one complaint: if you arrive before the 3pm check-in time, be prepared for some pret

The nicest, cleanest and best maintained KOA we have stayed at so far on this summer trip. We are already planning a return trip.

Very expensive. Very nice campground a lot of truck and train noises but I know that’s something you can’t avoid, but you could make it more accommodating price wise.

Very nice, clean. A little overpriced.

Definitely love this campground! The only complaint I have is that both nights there were people in nearby sites playing loud music well after 10pm. I was camping with my children so I was hesitant to tell a group of drunken grown men to turn off their music. My safety and that of my children is more important than missing out on a few hours of sleep. Who enforces quiet hours?

I am the only one that I saw that one of the personnel felt it was necessary to take me down to my rv site to "show" me. He said he did it for everyone. Not true. I feel he showed me my site because im a woman. I was one of the first couple of people in our area of the campground. None of the rest of the people were shown to their campsite. Only i was. And he was condescending about it

It’s a very nice campground, I definitely will recommend it to friends. We are looking for for an other stay.

Great stay. Stayed on site 100 next to office.

Customer service was great and the facilities were clean. I just don’t feel the extension site was well planned out. Seems like it was done for maximum efficiency and minimum enjoyment- everything was WAY too close together and we spent all night struggling to sleep in our tents as cars drove past honking and shining their lights into the campsite. Need to space things out and get a sound wall.

A very clean, quiet place with a very friendly staff. nice place where my family and I enjoy nature, the river, local food and the hot springs of the town

Great location right on the river! Thanks for the great stay.

Overall beautiful area. Easy access to river, nice swimming area and outside facilities nice (grill and fire pit). Walking distance to town is nice also. Mattress is uncomfortable, trains and trucks are very noisy especially at night. Nothing anyone can do with the noise.

We visited this KOA in early fall after the summer rush, so the camp ground was pretty quiet and not full of campers. Check I was a breeze and the employees were friendly and helpful. There really aren't any bad sites here. Some are right on the river. The camp sites are all clean and level and the park was easy to maneuver in. The only con to staying here is the highway and railroad noise. Personally it didn't bother me at all, but if you're someone who needs quiet to sleep you're probably not going to get the best sleep here. Overall, this is a great KOA and I would highly recommend staying here.
