Campground Reviews

Nov 02, 2024
Nice campground. Good base of operations to do some wine tasting or head to the ocean for some beach time. There are a nice variety of sites available and we will take advantage of some site upgrades available. Very easy to find spots this time or year and the park space is very large. We enjoyed our first visit to KOA Petaluma!

I’ve stayed here many times and each time, something new has been added or I see more improvement. Everything is very clean and I love the hot tub. visiting the campground in the off-season is so peaceful.

It was a very clean and calm campground with proper showers and restrooms.

Rv spaces are very nicely set up for privacy, grounds are also nicely kept up.

We have stayed there several times but this was not a great experience. First, there was no cable tv, the site was small and there was no sewer hook up. Overall, a pretty primitive site. I respect the fact that this was a busy time for the park so more attractive sites were unavailable, but this camp site would have been a lousy site no matter what. We likely will return but hope for a better.

Short staffed for such a busy weekend (10/25-10/27). Kids were looking forward to tie dye and disappointed to find out they weren't doing it this year. Also disappointed that the other store (closest to our site) did not open once all weekend. Staff was polite except for the food truck worker who was very rude and seemed to be very overwhelmed at the amount of orders he had. Prices are high.

Only concern is that hot tub temp is too high. Asked office multiple times to lower it and never happened

we booked our sites a year ago together and there was a barrier between them.One site right next to a noisy tank system and is not discounted. You charge for over two people and one of your sites is a family of 6. Main store was not open. Check in process on a busy weekend is horrible and really needs to be addressed. We camp at a lot of places and on busy weekends. Things have gone downhill here

Had a great time. First time KOAing and we became members! Super clean, everyone was really nice and loved all the activities for the kids

No issue with our site or the park appearance. Our main issue is the "no cash" for our balance on check in. We have visited a couple times a year, but will not return due to the "card only" policy. This KOA is a busy park - I'm sure they'll do just fine without our visits.

This would have been a 5 star if they allowed for cash transactions. I saw at least 4 kids denied buying something due to no cash transactions plus I had issues as well. Camping should allow for giving your child money to go buy things and feel independent doing it. I suggest bringing this experience back.

Love the halloween options

Beds need to be replaced. Boards are loose and move, and pad is too thin. Bed feels like it's going to break, and when you get up in the morning you feel like YOU are going to break. Also, when you send a text saying extend your stay and get 20% off, you need to offer that and A) not raise the rate then take the discount, and B) actually make it 20%. We tried to extend but you tried to screw us.

Although it was handy for catching the train and ferry into San Fran, this park is NOT Big Rig friendly whatsoever. They do not trim trees. We had to look at a few sites first, before deciding on a pull through, and we had to have them come and trim trees before we could put our slides out. Then, we had to back out of the site when leaving, because the trees. TRIM THE TREES PLEASE!

Just one night to see if the in laws might want to travel with us in retirement. Very happy. Want to do it again. Weekend before Halloween so the place was busy, busy, busy. Everyone had a good time.

Staff was great. Unfortunately our site was not. Dirt with lots of holes. Also, the power was not adequate and caused problems in our coach.

It was good until PM 11;00 we were going to sleep, but someone checked in beside us. They are 3 teams, 3 cars. Until AM 4:00 young men and women were talking loudly, opeded and closed doors loudly, and turned light on several times. It was a night mare, no employees did anything.

Terrific campground near San Francisco with lots of redwoods. We enjoyed it so much we stayed an extra night. We’ll be back. Highly recommend!

Told to check out a site for size told the guy in the Golf cart was all good that's the one rigged in unit went back to office to get parking pass and told while I was setting up someone went online and booked that site I had to move the next day but made it right
Oct 26, 2024
THE ONLY NEGATIVE TO AN OTHERWISE EXCEPTIONAL STAY ,WAS THE INTRODUCTION OF THE NEW CASHLESS POLICY. I THINK TAKING AWAY MY CHOICE TO USE U.S. MINTED MONEY IS FOR PURCHASES IS RIDICULOUS, AND WILL PROBABLY BUY ALL THINGS I MAY NEED IN TOWN WITH CASH

very clean with great accommodations

We found the park love lovely, large, with many beautiful landscapes sites, kid friendly. There are 2 stores! Unfortunately, our pull-through site was near the 2nd store where the lights are on all night, but that's a small thing.

We always love coming here. We arrive early to participate in the activities and this time we were allowed into our Kabin a little bit early since it was cleaned and ready. I wish the store and food truck were open on Sunday, but I understand staffing issues. Our Kabin was clean and had all the amenities!

We love staying at the Peteluma KOA during October! Hosts and employees are great. Plenty of activities. Lots of Halloween decorations throughout the campground that belonged to either KOA or the campers. Fun night of trick or treat on Saturday evening. It was refreshing to see the kids safely playing throughout the campground with minimal supervision...kinda like a throwback to the 1950s.

Wish there were not really bright LED lights flooding some Rv sites. It’s very intrusive, like near E54.
Oct 22, 2024
absolutely no wifi was available at all after contacting tango numerous times. They were always helpful but could never get it working. Shower water was ice cold, no hot water. Pool and jaccuzi opened hours later than advertised. For the amount of money spent on campsite for 2 nights here we did not feel like we got nearly our money's worth and your services are falsely advertised.

Great spot! Very spacious sites, lots of activities available, friendly people.

Our family loves staying at KOA San Francisco North/Petaluma! The staff are so helpful and accommodating, the facilities are always clean, and the kid-friendly accomodations keep our three grade school aged kids very busy all weekend.

Wonderful Halloween celebration with friends and family. Our 2nd stay. AND, we have already booked for a stay next year. 2025! Well maintained grounds and facilities. Love the trees and vegetation. Personnel great. And we saw Bigfoot in the dark Saturday evening!

Great Time. Keep the Pool warmer.

We had a great stay, but I gave it a 4 star this time due to our reservation dates & site were changed without my knowledge. We reserved an end site next to our family & paid the lock fee a year in advance. A few days before check in, I received a text message confirming our stay with the incorrect dates and site #. Thankfully Kendall was able to find us another site, but it wasn't as big or nice.

Came with a family group for the children’s tricker treat weekend. Nice set up for the kids. One of the worst spaces I have ever had. For the cost I expected to just pull in and a little leveling. My spot was off on all four sides. (I level with blocks). It was a night mare and I never was able to get it right. Flys were so thick because two large dumpers were within 15 feet of my door

Receptionist was rude. Nobody responded on the text concierge. Not enough bathrooms. Cabins are overpriced. Amenities are nice though!

Groundskeeper Mike was super kind in helping us get situated, the Halloween party was a blast! My daughters, wife and I very much look forward to visiting this KOA again!

Small sites, rules not enforced, big rig unfriendly.
Oct 21, 2024
Pas de Wifi même si l’affiche dit le contraire ! Terrain pas très égalisé et pas d’égouts (service de pompage des eaux quotidiennement) Très bruyant le week-end car très très familial Par contre très bien situé et proche de la gare pour le train vers San Francisco Petaluma est très bien pour toutes commodités

The campsite is very well located, except SF, very quiet. true very clean and very nice everything. is a pretty big campsite but offers something for everyone. Pool true unfortunately too because of maintenance work but we only keep the nights there.

The campground is nice but be aware that if you need to do laundry there, you are forced to sign up for an app on your phone in order to use their machines that do not accept credit cards or coins. My husband and I have traveled all over the country and this is the first time we have encountered this. We didn't want to have to acquired an unwanted app on our phones and the instructions for acquiring it aren't easy. So we had to haul our laundry to a local laundromat and as we were leaving we saw other guests taking their laundry back after they left too. I complained nicely to a staff member who didn't seem to care. Having said that the campground is nice, surrounded by pine trees and redwoods. It's real advantage is being near the ferry boats going over to San Francisco. Be aware, while there is a local train going to the ferry, where it lets you off is three quarters to a mile walk to the ferry. In rain it would be very unpleasant and no one tells you how far the walk is. It is better to drive your car to the ferry and pay the $2 on the digital parking meter. We took the train once and drove three other times. Other than that, the campground is in a nice setting and near wine country too.

We went for a wine country weekend. It's the perfect location. Right between Sonoma and Santa Rosa. We stayed in a lodge. It was very nice. The pool was great. It was fun to see everyone having so much fun. The customer service was very friendly. I will go back.
