Not our first time visiting. Lovely campground. Excited to see the expansion. However, the new park staff was less than ideal. We were escorted to our site, but after arriving they departed. No attempt was made to assist with backing our 5th wheel in. We have been towing 5th wheels for some time and have no trouble. Others may need more than a cursory wave from the staff.

It was only a one night stay so we didn't get to explore it all, but the view was great, sites were spacious and staff was friendly.

Very good campground! Not a lot of activity in the area around there. Very clean and well maintained.

Quiet camp ground, clean, lots of activities for kids. Only downfall was the bugs. Mosquito's and love bugs were out in force. Had it not been for all the bugs, I would definitely rate this location higher. I would definitely go back there and stay again, however it would be in the winter to early spring months.

The park is a bit secluded, but location relative to water is very nice. Park grounds are well maintained, but some of the amenities could be updated or improved. There is a "pickle ball court", but it is in an open field with no surrounding fence - so playing there would be an effort to chase/fetch balls off the court. Plus they need to install the net. Overall a decent place for RV'ers.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your kind words and your valuable feedback. Our 2 pickle ball courts are new, and we plan on adding netting around them this November

Oh my God! Where do I start! This was our first time taking our travel trailer out for camping and I can say that I am thankful that we chose the KOA at Port Lavaca/Matagorda Bay! Everything was great! It was so peaceful, clean and quiet! I loved the text messages that we received inviting us to movie night, checking in on us, and keeping us updated with any problems. We will be back!

Nice bay view spots. Nice people. The bay is too shallow and muddy for adults to swim or fish. There's no waves.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us and for your compliment and feedback. We are adding a Marina later this year and a boat ramp that will accommodate bay boats, and now have stand up boards, kayaks and aqua-trikes that are perfect for this water

Great park! I unfortunately got sick and had to go to urgent care during our trip and ultimately had to cut our trip short the staff was great and accommodating. I wish I could’ve spent more time there getting to ride the water bikes and kayaks but apparently the pool was great.

Sites very close together. Minimal site amenities

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry to see that you did not enjoy the amenities on the full hook up water view pull thru site. We do have patio sites with fire rings and patio furniture. If you are looking for more site amenities, perhaps a patio site would be a perfect fit during your next stay. Happy Camping! :)

friendly, helpful staff, clean facilities, quite and peaceful. Could use a dumpster for visitor trash. Plant a lot of trees that was a big draw for us we had a spot with a large shady tree and that is nice. Overall excellent stay we will be coming back when it is cooler. thank You

The people running the KOA are very nice and friendly. There was an error in our reservation when we arrived and we ended up staying in a less expensive site so we were a little disappointed. We were not notified upon arrival just sent to wrong site. I had to call them. to ask why. The bathroom never had any toilet paper and was not well cleaned. There is plenty of activities for the kiddos.

The arcade was completely closed. Games were not working at all. The pumps don't work on the pool so the chlorine was not getting mixed correctly. It caused the eyes to burn and bloodshot. Watch how everything gets charged to your card. We had a couple of issues of overpayment. And it was resolved nicely by the front office. The views are pretty! The park is small, but nice.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your review; we are very sorry about the arcade being closed due to COVID-19. Only outside games are open due to the pandemic. We will re-open the arcade as soon as it is safe to do so, we post on koa.com what is closed. Pool pumps are on a timer and we monitor chemicals regularly

Visited our nephew Labor Day. What a great time we had!! So clean and so friendly. Missy even had a conversation with the little ones (who loved the suckers). Plan on visiting again. Will stay in a cabin.
