A great meeting place for family and friends - met up with some friends that moved away we camped and took hikes around the lake and visited while hanging around the fire ring at night. Close to both Ancient Peaks winery and Paso Robles - Great visit with great weather

Amazing hospitality and convenience. They have what is lacking in so many other campgrounds. They even dropped off complimentary wood. I stayed in Cabin 20 and it was a great spot

My family of four (plus our golden retriever pup) had a lovely stay at this KOA! We stayed in a private yurt, which was very spacious and clean. The campground was extremely nice and had wonderful amenities for the kids (jumping pillow, playground, horseshoes, volleyball, basketball, etc.). And the staff was amazing and super friendly. The site manager even delivered a bag of ice after hours!

Great place. The cabin we were in was connected to another. That family had little kids, pretty noisy but otherwise a beautiful place. Friendly staff.

Cabin was a perfect get away. Cozy and warm from the rain and cold. Plenty of amenities and amazing views.

Cabin & campground are nice but I had loud neighbors who partied well past 10pm quiet time. There were many empty cabins so spacing people a little more apart would be helpful. I had a terrible night for over $100 to sleep (or not). So disappointing.

Enjoyed our stay despite the weather. Were able to move into a cabin the last couple of nights which we really appreciated. Everyone was very nice, especially Daisy who offered us an upgrade to the cabin the cold, rainy night, very thoughtful. Roads in the campground could have more gravel, since the area is in a moist environment (at least when we were there). Surrounded by nature, lots of birds.

A fantastic stay with such a clean space and amazing staff.

Absolute highlight: staff were pleasant and helpful, especially Daisy and Ryan! Deluxe cabin #87 was well-appointed. Little children enjoyed the loft enormously. Kitchenette is rather limited for indoor cooking and dining. If the weather is nice, plan to cook on the grill right outside and dine on the spacious patio instead! Bring lights!

We really enjoyed our stay at the KOA and our little cabin #80. You should know that there is a very unpleasant odor that made being inside a little uncomfortable. it does smell like a skunk sprayed or marijuana inside. There's a small opening at the front of the deck so possible a skunk has taken up residence under?

The staff is helpful and committed to making your stay the best experience possible. Ryan is great! He went out of his way to improve the quality of my vacation every day. Winter car camping is great at this KOA.

Everything about our stay was absolutely perfect! From booking over the phone to checking in and the accommodations, we had a blast!!!

Stay was great. I liked the access to SLO. Cabin was clean and nice. HOWEVER, there is one important thing to bring to staffs attention: There is something wrong with furnace. Whenever I turned on furnace, the rooms become full of skunks smell. I believe there is skunk odor stock in the filter perhaps. It was unbearable. We had to do wash or cloth several times to get the skunk odor off.

We stayed in a deluxe cabin(#3). Most of our group was in rv sites, and a few were in other cabins. Everything was great except the draining of the sinks etc, and flushing the toilet. You could not flush the toilet twice in a row and had to wait probably 20 minutes between. A little difficult for a group of 4-6 with kids. It looked like they had been having some issues with the septic system.

Love our cabin. It’s a beautiful place to visit. Not sure why there were no coffee filters this year and the cabin wasn’t very clean. But it won’t keep me from coming back. �

The stay was amazing! The site was well run and accommodating. So many fun activities! The staff was helpful and friendly
Oct 02, 2024
I liked the activities they had for kids. I am giving it 3 stars because the cabins were not clean. The cabin where my family and I stayed had spider webs and dust. We were able to tell that the cabins were not deeply cleaned. The restrooms and showers also had spider webs inside and outside the facility. To us, cleanliness is very important because it makes our stay more comfortable & enjoyable.

Cabin was very nice. Only 2 minutes from the Lake.

Helpful friendly staff - everything was very clean and comfortable in our cabin. Love the location - so peaceful!!

The reception was amazing. They were so helpful and accommodating! Cabin was clean and nice. The bathroom were old and ugly and need to be remodeled. Did not enjoy taking a shower in them. Other than that stay was nice.

It was amazing. Beautiful place. Very nice staff. Our cabin was perfect. We will definitely come more often.

We really enjoyed our stay. In fact, we liked it so much, we will be staying next year in June. The amenities are nice and it is very close to the lake and other activities. The only negative part about our stay were the yellowjackets.

I love Santa Margarita Koa, they are full of fun activities for the whole family, my only complaint is that the place needs more bathrooms, it gets very crowded and long waits to get in, I wish they build at least one more station. But still my favorite place.
Aug 02, 2024
Our cabin stay was a disappointing. Extremely hot in the cabin (even with all windows open for several hours before bed), the nearest bathrooms were a ways uphill, unpleasant smells in pool/laundry areas, dirty bathrooms:(

Great stay, really enjoy the property, this is our thrid visit. We've come with an RV once, used the deluxe cabin once #86, and stayed in the smaller deluxe cabin this time, #21. A few comments: (1) Faucet in the bathroom was clogged with scale, (2) Wifi was very bad on bathhouse row, basically unusable (3) Disc golf course should be more frequently mowed, grass very long, saw several snakes.

Always a great stay.

This was my 3rd stay. I've done both tent and cabin camping and had a great time every time. The staff is friendly, the facilities are clean, lots of kid friendly activities and I'll definitely be back again this fall. Deluxe cabins are worth the splurge if you need to do a lot of cooking. Full size fridge and oven with a gas range on top. Love this place!

Have visited many KOA's in my travels, id say this one is on my my top 5 best list. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I rented a five person yurt, it was excellent. Very nice and clean. Had electric inside and water just out the door. Short walk to the clean bathroom and shower. Great experience all around.

The campground was extremely nice and had wonderful amenities for the kids (jumping pillow, playground, horseshoes, volleyball, basketball, etc.). There was even an enclosed dog park, which our pup enjoyed. And the staff was amazing and super friendly. The site manager even went above-and-beyond and delivered a bag of ice after hours directly to our campsite! Needless to stay, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to our next visit!
