Campground Reviews

Our three-week stay in Port Lavaca left us thoroughly impressed! This destination stands out as one of the most well-managed, well-furnished, and impeccably clean places we’ve encountered in our travels. Nestled just far enough from the main road, it offers quiet nights and a prime location right on the water. It’s a peaceful haven with a diverse range of activities, making it perfect for fami

What a gem! Favorite campground ever. We have stayed at many KOAs & this one is the best. Beautiful views of the bay. Quiet, serene, loved waking up to a panoramic view of the bay & pier. So many fun things to do. Clean & so well kept. Will definitely stay here again if we come back to the Gulf. We were here during a cold snap, but the views & kindness of the owner/managers warmed our hearts.

Nice little park and out of the city. Very quiet. Great amenities and so nice to be by the lake. Your pizza was quite good. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Staff was incredibly helpful and gave us a free site upgrade! The campground was quiet and is directly on the bay. It is very quiet and well kept. Hope to stay longer next time we are in the area!

The weather wasn't nice and sunny, as we would have liked, so we didn't get to enjoy a lot of the activities. The campground was well kept, and there was a big variety of things to do. The one night it was clear, the stars were amazing. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Great location and nice folks. The road in could use some work, but that is not the KOA's responsibility.

We love this campground and the staff. Like we can have a campfire, sites are not crowded, and atmosphere is great.

Wow, what a nicely kept campground! Treat yourself to a bayside backin site, great view. Owners and staff were accommodating, showers and laundry were clean and bright. We stayed here 3 days, will stay again when in the area.

I stay at many KOA's. Port lavaca is at the top of my list. Very clean, excellent hosts that are very helpful. Quiet and out of the way. Many activities including fishing in the bay, band and potluck. This Koa is out of the way and worth the trip to find it. Rates are some of the best I have seen. I will be back soon!!! Again excellent host and customer service that is what sets this Koa ahead!!!

Site 210 seemed like a great location. The General Store located right next to our campsite had four decent size speakers mounted on the outside of the store that played loud music all night. I thought the campground would turn the music off during the campgrounds “quiet time 10 pm”. But no, music will loud bass could be heard all night. The worse sleep I’ve had at a KOA.

We came in On 12-30 & left on 1-2 with several friends. Love this KOA as it has everything! Really enjoyed the fireworks, weather & peace & quiet.

We were very pleased with the facility and amenities. We felt comfortable letting our grandkids ride their bikes and play throughout the park.

We love coming to the Port LaVaca KOA. Two of our children rented cabins and our daughter and son-in-law camped next to us. There is so much for kids big & small to do. The grounds are pristine. The general store most likely has whatever you forgot to bring. All of their team members are so nice & helpful. We will be back again soon!!

Spent 5 days and the staff were great, the campground was not full between Christmas and New Year which I would have expected from other stays near a costal destination. Had fun fishing off of their fishing pier. I would stay there again.

the speed bumps are not good, the road into the KOA with all the gravel is not good

Very clean facilities and well maintained campground. Beautiful scenery. The staff stayed in contact while making our way there as weather was bad coming in. We loved our stay and will be glad to visit again!

This is the best KOA park you can ever think of staying at. You cannot go wrong. I highly recommend. Travelers, families, hunters, fishermen or temporary workers. Try it. You will not be disappointed.

We really enjoy this KOA! Emily is especially helpful and everyone else is very nice and are helpful as well. We liked the layout and orientation of cabin K04 a lot. It would be nice if lights in the area behind he office were turned off overnight but we understand some folks like being out late. We enjoy moon and stars watching. We love kayaking and fishing here too. We’ll be back for sure!!

It was our first time at this campground and we enjoyed our stay. The common restroom and shower room were clean. The cabin was clean and well equipped. My only complaint was the blanket on the bed it has a smell like it has been used before. Luckily we brought our own beddings. The KOA staff were wonderful and friendly. t

The location is great that it is not too far from home (obvi depending on where home is)but also that it is near water. The bay is calmer for kayak/SUP- among the other fun options to rent & enjoy the water. This is an ideal spot for young kids with the splash pad, pool & other games, plus the staff does some additional small scavenger hunts or sometimes they have planned activities. The staff was incredibly nice and helpful. The cabins are nice and clean, as are the public bathrooms if you are tent camping or have a smaller camper. They have one yurt, tent camping, camper camping, and a few cabins- and more to come. There is very few large trees though, so keep that in mind to bring shade. It is a small area, so not spread apart sites. Also the cabins switch between having a stand up grill or a low campfire, which we wanted the campfire experience, so need to keep that in mind when booking a cabin. Pet friendly! We brought our cat, she went kayaking for the first time, idk if she would review that as 5 stars, but she would say 5 stars for the cabin & outdoor deck which was he favorite feature.
