We had a great time with our friends. We had 4 sites together. Thank you. The sites were clean and beautiful. We drove the camp grounds. The Oak trees are so wonderful. The office people were friendly and happy. Grounds people were doing a great job too keeping the sites clean. Thank you Vail Lake for a great time with our friends.

We had a GREAT spot, there were lots of activities if you're interested, it's very clean & we were very impressed with the nice, level concrete & nicely made brick firepit. Lots of friendly employees & even nice music on the weekends. LOTS of items to shop for in the store & a very peaceful experience.

Nobody from KOA came by to tell the site next to us to keep quit. It was after 10:00pm. More friends came late and it got even louder. It went until 3:00 am. They kept several people awake.

We thoroughly enjoyed the live music and played several games of pickle ball. Can’t wait to come back!

Again I was stung by a yellow jacket! This the second summer. There should be some serious pest control efforts made to reduce the swarms. I saw a trap hanging in a tree that the campers said you hung for them at their request. What do I have to do to protect myself and my family next summer?

We booked in May and specifically booked a premium paved spot for myself and sister. Upon arrival it was not booked that way. The spots were empty over the weekend

It’s always magical when we stay! Anita is literally the best! I love going into the store just to see her warm smiling face.

We love this place!!!

We always enjoyed being up on the Chardonnay. This particular site reminded me more of the oaks tad disappointed

We had a very nice stay. We enjoyed part of the day in the village. We ordered drinks from the bar and sat at a table, with our parents and our dogs. It was also fun to see the little train going around the campground.

We love this place. The staff does a great job. The only critique I’d like to make is regarding the cafe. They could use some of the money that comes in and put it towards upgrading the menu items, quality of food and what’s offered.

Love the upgrades that have been done to the sites! Keep up the good work!

It is very pretty there but the Quiet Time is not enforced. I was in space 314 and the space immediately to my right was overpacked, and very loud very late. They had too many cars, too many tents. They made noise close to midnight and were making noise before 7 AM,and not just incidental noise. NO ONE from Valil Lake KOA comes around to enforce the standards. Also People drive way too fast

Our stay was fantastic! We really enjoyed the "village" during the day for lunch and activities. Our kids loved the camp store and coloring the stuffed animals. We spent time at the pool, which was very clean and large enough to not feel crowded. I especially liked that when I needed firewood, all I had to do was text and the firewood was delivered within 15 minutes!

Everything was very well kept and all staff was friendly.

It was perfect! We need to be more prepared for wasps but that’s certainly not your fault.

Part of our rating has to do with the fact that we were not seeking a crowded, family adventure. We just needed someplace to stay for a night, and this facility was packed with loud families and teens zipping about in golf carts. The bathrooms were sub par. There were holes in the ceiling, no bench or seat for people to sit down while getting dressed, etc. This was not for us - and expensive!

Very nice camp. Staff attentive.

Our stay was great as usual. Only one issue, the fire pit at our campsite #399 had been damaged at some point and is crumbling into pieces. Needs replacement.
Sep 18, 2023
There are so many things to do. We loved it. It is great for the kids too.

We had a great time. I think better signage for a nighttime arrival would have made our stay easier.

The grounds are well kept, rhe staff in tbe store is helpful and pleasant and we kive the pool area. Thus is our second time here. The ladt being a year ago when we first bought our rig from some friends. We have already booked for 2024, same week in September!

The pool was clean, the staff was helpful and I always love my fact site. Please continue repairing the roads - that’s a problem. And the electricity in upper Chardonnay is spotty. Power surges? More like power sputtering.
Sep 17, 2023
Great campground with much to do for families! Staff always working to keep the grounds nice. Problem: the campground rules were not followed every night we were there and no one was there to reinforce them. It negatively impacted our experience!! Loud music, swearing, carts and bikes with lights and loud music going fast ruined the peaceful setting! We were in the Oaks which could have lovely.

We have been coming to this campground for 10+ years and are generally pretty happy with the facility. We like to stay in the Upper Chardonnay, and are very happy that the sites now have picnic tables. However, the power tower is HORRIBLE! You literally have to lay on your back in the dirt to plug in the 30 am ONLY power cord and then tie it up with a bungee cord so that it won't fall out!!!

I stayed in a cabin for the first time. It would have been perfect, but it was 93 degrees outside and the air wasn't working. I called maintenance who responded within 10 minutes but unfortunately could not fix the problem. Miserable sleeping. Otherwise, fun as usual at Vail Lake.

We were pleasantly surprised by just how nice everything was. The campground itself looked inviting and fun to explore. The amenities were good and the pools 3! Looked well maintained as well. They're upgrading the arroyo area but it was so peaceful back there because it's the farthest from the store and cafe. They were setting up Halloween decor when we left, we stayed Sunday through Friday..

So much fun, so many activities, pool, food, golf, bar and best of all camping

Great campground. Offers so much. Only caveat…bathrooms need a refresher. Walls stained , I am sure they are clean, but no way to tell. Wanted to give a 4.5 overall, but not an option.

When we reserve a site on line, it was stated that there was only one site left. Upon arriving it was more than obvious that was not a true statement as there were numerous sites available through our the park. No valid reason to lie about availability of sites. We also had items stolen from our site when we were gone for the day, not KOA’s fault, but nevertheless disappointing.

Big campground. Lots of trees and good size lots. We just drove thru it to check out things. Visit the website for more info.
