Campground Reviews

We had a wonderful time. This visit we brought along the grandkids to celebrate the holidays and participate in the golf cart parade/contest. It was even more exciting because we won 1st place and received a 1st place medal from Buddy the Elf. The KOA has brought memories of a lifetime for my family and I. Thank you!

Family had a great time. Love the views and the updated campsites. Wish the laundry wasn’t so expensive for how big the washer drum is and the dryer for $5 per load of laundry you can’t get much done compared to prices and size of equipment a laundry mat provides and charges.

Vail lake is always a favorite place to stay. Now with the road access can also enjoy the lake and do little fishing.

I think the bathrooms could use an upgrade and same with the putting green surfaces. Bathrooms were pretty rough

My first staying at the fine facility. Was impressed. Only down side was the TVs in the cabin. But Katelyn came to the rescue. Nice birthday stay. Thank you.

We had a bad experience in sight 179 in the Oaks. There’s a tree directly in front of the concrete pad. I was able to maneuver my trailer onto the pad, but then I had to buy an extra 20 feet of sewer cable to reach the sewer line. The asphalt in that area needs some serious attention.

Please add more heaters at the village area. There was only 4 for the whole area. Also, please fix the many potholes in the roads. We love coming here!

Spots a little close together with no privacy and lots of people. Staff are friendly and helpful though and there are lots of different activities to do!

This was our first shake out trip in our new to us RV and first time at Vail lake. We had a great time and were very impressed with the property and the cleanliness of the property! Everyone was so friendly too! We will definitely be back! Mid week was so nice and quite! Not a complaint by any means but more trash cans and dog poop stations would be nice. Would love to see mini golf refurbis

We just came back from another wonderful stay at Vail Lake KOA. We like camping here during the week because the campground is pretty much empty and very quiet. But on Thursdays, we do enjoy seeing all the families with young kids come in for a weekend adventure.

Cabins are excellent! They left like home away from home. Definitely a nice way to get away and enjoy the scenic views.

We have always love our stay. We have booked spaces 123 and 124 for years every year. When we went to rebook again for next year. KOA broke the rules any have our space 124 to someone else. We may not return for 2026. What’s the pint of have rules if you break them and make them up as you go.

Love staying here. Only comment is the condition of the asphalt is in very bad shape. My 2 year old tripped several times on the potholes not to mention driving through them.

Overall, our experience was a lot of fun. However, our experience with several staff was not so great. Any time we asked a question or had an inquiry the staff was very unhelpful. They responded unkindly and annoyed. This is not what I expect out of a KOA.

This was our first trip to Vail Lake KOA. Our family had a blast. We've stayed at many KOAs through the years, and this is by far our favorite. For the last several years, we've tried to stay at different locations for Thanksgiving week, and we enjoyed our stay so much that we've already made our reservations to return next year.

Large sites. Nice village area. The bathrooms and showers are not what I would call KOA standard. Other KOAs are nice and clean. These have black spots all over shower, no mirror, the soap didn’t work. Other than that, nice people and nice area where it sits.

Enjoyed the stay and accommodations. The one negative we encountered was the safe in our (cabin MC01) was locked when we arrived. We notified the front desk personnel in person and also left a voice mail asking for assistance. We never received a response and it was never opened for us to use.

I love this place but the internet didn't work. We had problems with it for 3 days. When we asked the staff they were not very helpful. They just said probably too many people using it which was not true. There were not many people at the campground. Late the night before we left suddenly the 5g internet appeared then it worked great. Also, You can't bring your own wood.

Very well maintained campground. Love it here

We won't be back. We had planned to visit again. But, they let someone else book our spot. Every year, we are told in order to get our same spot for the next year, we have to be in the spot. We always are, we come at the same time each year. This year, they let someone book our spot for next year, when only we should be able to. They broke the rule, we have had to follow.

We had a fantastic stay. This campground is huge! So much to do from pickleball, mountain bike riding, fishing, mini golfing and we loved the festive environment. Staff is friendly and helpful. One of the best KOA experiences we have had. We will be back with family next time!

We had a great stay. Little disappointed restaurant and bar were closed Sunday Monday and Tuesday.

My family loves vail lake koa. We always have a good time. The staff is friendly and nice. The only thing I would recommend is the bar to be open on Sunday till at least 7-8. Especially so close to a holiday.

The Lower Merlot is the tenement yard of the KOA franchise. It has an 18th century bathroom that Beethoven utilized.

Temecula KOA at Vail Lake is a massive RV resort with various campgrounds. The entire resort alone provides so much area to get a good walking, jogging and cycling workout. We got a good spot and, therefore, enjoyed the views, fresh air and clean atmosphere. There are lots of trees and grassy fields here, unlike RV parks that look like parking lots. It's also just a short drive away from the wineries. If you like to drink wine but don't have a designated driver, just hire an Uber or Lyft.
