Used the KOA as a basecamp for trios to beach sea world and other places. While some things were a but far , KOA provided good value.

Camp amenities were amazing. It was clean and beautiful. The only sad element was sound. The crows and the neighbors. KOA can't do anything about crows, but it was clear that KOA doesn't really enforce their noise restrictions. Overall though, a great spot!

This was our first time at the San Diego Metro KOA and it is safe to say we will be returning every summer! Our kids and all family that came had a blast. Thank you to all staff that was so nice and helpful during our stay!

We all had a wonderful time, as always. Bobbi and her team were beyond wonderful. My son came to pick up his son from us and was totally amazed at it. He and his family will probably come with us next year. We will get cabins next to each other. Again thank you for a great vacation.

Great spot, loved how clean the bathrooms/showers are. Loved the on-site café option as well. Will definitely be back. Didn't love the sprinklers blasting our tent at 1am, however.

Need to do something about the murder of crows in the morning.

We are so happy to have found KOA campground! Every time we stay, we feel safe, and that's my main concern. Everything is very clean and the workers are very respectful. We enjoy your poolside and the entertainment you offer for kids and families. I feel rejuvenate when I leave. We are from San Diego CA and I would highly recommend you. Thank you again.

I love the activities like the mermaid and pirate, and the amenities catered for the kids. My daughter enjoyed all of it!

KOA is a wonderful campground in Chula Vista. As a native it feels I’m not in my own neighborhood. The amenities here are great and the kids love it here. We try and come at least once a year hopefully we can experience all camping options in the years to come.

Great activities, amenities and events. Obviously, the sites feel crowded and tent sites seem expensive in comparison to other facilities. Wish that recycling was easier/emphasized. Bikes seem expensive and unfortunate that there’s not a longer rental option.

Facilities were clean and well maintained. Kids activities were fun and managed well. Unfortunately, we had pull through sites near the pool/tent area and witnessed a family tent camping with some severe domestic violence/disturbances. The couple, with 3 small children (often left alone) were loudly arguing through multiple nights of our stay. We filed a complaint but no action was taken from staf

Great experience, especially if you're a first timer or trying camping with first time kids. Its not completely in the wilderness nor is it completely in the city. it's a good in between. Staff were friendly. there was always something to do event-wise and plenty of parks and things for the kids to do.

I didn't really know what to expect as I'd never stayed at a KOA before but it truly exceeded our expectations in every way. The staff was so friendly, was able to answer any questions I had, and they were everywhere! You could always find someone! The facilities were clean, there was a ton to do, and my kids loved it.

We had a fantastic time at KOA Chula Vista. The young people that led the gaga ball game were fun and great with the kids. The pool was warm and clean. The property was clean and seemed safe. My only complaint was the staff at the restaurant were not very friendly and seemed annoyed when I asked for forks and napkins to go with our food.

Bathroom clean. Nice people camping

Perfect as always, everyone respects the quiet time, the pool was perfectly clean, and the site was in great condition. The only minor issue, not KOA's fault, was that campers sometimes left the showers in poor condition. On the first morning, I found a used sanitary towel in the shower, and the next day, whoever had used it before me left trash all over the floor. Shame that people are so bad.

Koa is super nice and clean. I love it here. Staff is wonderful and what I love the most is all the activities they have for the kids and family's. Bobby is super cool and she so good to the kids. She running a awesome program. We already booked out next trip for July for a week and 2 days. Can't wait. We love you KOA Chula Vista

I came here to introduce my son to tent camping and he loved it! As a single mom, I felt very safe here because I regularly saw staff patrolling. The food at the cafe was really good. The only thing they didn't have that would have been helpful is a family restroom for people who need to help a disabled loved one. If there was one, I didn't see it. Overall, a great place! We will be back!

There was worms falling down from the eucalyptus tree above us all over our stuff on the pick nick table Thursday morning when we woke up at 6 am, the office wasn’t open yet so I went home and brought my canopy. Friday night the noise ordinance wasn’t enforced ex loud people and music well past midnight. The pool area wasn’t very clean, example there was the same bird poop left on lounge c

There we 6 of us my sons family they have a 9 & 7 year old along with my husband and I. We tent camped and had the BEST time The facility was very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. They offer so much to do and the kids really enjoyed the kids games and crafts offered.The only thing negative was the wood chips that kept getting stuck in our shoes or cutting our feet if we wore flip flop

We reserved a family tent site, I disliked that upon reservation it stated that it was a sand site and it ended up being a site with wood chips, or actually chopped branches that caused damage to tarps and tents. Also it attracts a lot of pincher bugs and ants. Otherwise, everything else was great and my family and I enjoyed our stay.

The staff was extremely friendly and made me feel very welcomed. We were only staying 1 night but because my kids enjoyed it so much , as it was our first time , we called to ask for a late check out and they made it possible. We were able to enjoy the pool a bit before leaving. The gift shop was so stocked which I loved so we didn’t have to leave. The food from the cafe was excellent as well.

Had a good time. Bike rentals were fun, the pool and facility was clean. Disappointed they didn’t have a ping pong table though.

WE WILL BE BACK!! Selfishly we don’t want to tell anyone about this KOA, because we think of it as a hidden gem, but in all honesty we will be spilling the beans. Your staff was amazing and friendly from arrival to departure. The grounds were always clean and well maintained. A 5 ���� was not given because of the crows- their EARLY morning roundings and nightly calls were disruptive.

The actual campground is amazing. The pool was a huge hit with my kids. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Best KOA we’ve been to hands down, and we’ve been to about ten over the past year. I highly recommend.

Thank you for having so many simple wood chip tent sites! I love sleeping under the stars in my little tent.

Easy to find, be mindful. Google maps will take you through toll roads. Make sure you have your toll roads selected as off on your map questing adventures getting here. Very clean. Very nice! Lots of fun people. Lots of things to do for kiddos and young adults. Don't mind the leaf blowers at 7:00 in the morning because they're out there cleaning up the campgrounds and doing all the other things to make your visit pleasurable.

From the front office to the events coordinator, we were super impressed. We didn't want to leave. We told our families they need to stay here. There is something to do for everyone!
