The Placerville KOA has re-opened by RESERVATION!
Make your way out of the house for some much needed family fun on a one-of-a-kind camping vacation. Your family can enjoy some fresh air and the great outdoors in a natural socially distant setting. Enjoy our 18 hole miniature golf course nestled in the oak trees. For homeschoolers and families doing distant learning, we offer a great new wifi system. All items in our store are available for phone ordering or guests can purchase items out of our front window. We're offering families our famous barrel train rides daily. The train is sanitized after each rider and you'll even get to enjoy the entire train for yourselves! Pack some warm clothes and enjoy movie nights under the stars on most Friday and Saturday nights. Don't forget your face coverings, so that your children can enjoy the playground and you will also be welcomed into all common areas.
We can't wait for guests to enjoy our Hot Tub, Bike Rentals, Classics Arcade, and Kitchen Pavilion again, when new restrictions allow.
If you have been sick, directly exposed to Covid-19, or tested positive for Covid-19 in the last 21 days, then please notify us to cancel or move your reservation. To help us ensure ourselves, other campgrounds, and local businesses can remain open... please be prepared to follow our State and County Guidelines. Now is the time to enjoy your individual family rather than traveling with others in a group setting. If you are multiple families already traveling together, we ask that you enjoy each others company in smaller groups of less than 10 in one area, if at all possible, and follow all of the States Covid-19 guidance. Only registered guests for the full duration of your stay are allowed into the park. No visitors are permitted to enter our park without exception in accordance with State Rules.
You can feel confident in knowing that our staff undergo temperature checks daily and wear face coverings when appropriate, in accordance with the State Guidelines. We have increased sanitation in all common areas as well as our bathrooms. It is our top priority to ensure guests feel comfortable and as safe as possible during the pandemic. We have been amazed all summer at how respectful our guests have been to our staff and other campers regardless of any personal feelings regarding the pandemic. Below is a few reviews which we feel best describe what you should expect when camping with us during these times. Reading rewarding reviews such as these has made our team more eager to provide your family an even better experience!
"The accommodations, activities (train ride, swimming and movie nights) and the goats were a huge success. We felt very safe at the campgrounds during this trying time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Everybody was very friendly and helpful."
"Campsite is very clean. Staff was very attentive. Lots to do on-site (even in COVID times!). Would definitely stay again. Thanks!"
"I would like to compliment the staff on their hard work and care in reopening during this difficult (Covid) time. I felt extremely safe as I believe their rules and diligence are completely appropriate at this time. It was comforting to be in the same beautiful surroundings. Special thanks to each staff member from the cleaning crew on up."
"This KOA is very family friendly. If you are looking to allow your kids some fun outdoor time this family that owns and operates this site will ensure everyone leaves with a smile on their face. During COVID this camp site was not camping as usual however it was camping and we had loads of fun. Join them for your next camping adventure."
Happy Kamping :)
