Campground Reviews

Everything was great except the lack of full hook ups and the sewer smell that felt like it never went away between the dump station and the truck driving through. Only request and improvement would be full hook ups on all sites.

Wonderful staff/nice place to lay our heads. 1 thing could be improved is the bath house:not adequate places to put our stuff, no shelves, very few hooks for towels, in great disrepair.The caulk job in showers--poorly done. Shower cracked--leaked into the floor. Leaking toilet/floor sopping wet. Hot water was good.Husband is a contractor-he could fix it all, to be a good investment for the future.

We only stayed in our cabin to sleep as the weather was so gorgeous in Valdez the four days we were there. So we spent all our time outside enjoying all the wildlife and sights. But the cabin was very clean, comfortable beds, friendly staff. Also was very quiet at night times to get a good nights sleep before heading out exploring each day. Definitely will stay here again.

Looking at the rv parks in the area, this was the best. The sites in the middle row, we were site 100, were a little close but it seemed they tried to space out if they were not full. The staff was great! Restrooms and laundry were clean

Professional, kind, and friendly. The campground was very clean. Had a nice level spot and a quiet night sleep.

The glamping tent was AWESOME! I think it’s my new favorite way to lodge when traveling. The workers at the campground go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect! Meken was especially helpful and kind �

Awesome staff and site!! Showers were always spotless as was the entire camp. Thanks for saluting the military!

Bathrooms clean. Nice staff. Sites 14 has a bad fire pit, if it can be called one. Right up against the brush. Not practical. Wood is a bit expensive for what you get at $10, should be $8

Enjoyed the wood setting and great wifi!

This campground was wonderful. The facilities were excellent and remained clean. The staff was wonderful, friendly, and helpful. Reservations, check in, and check out were easy and simple. We will certainly visit the Valdez KOA again (and other Alaska-based KOAs).

Excellent staff. Clean facilities. Spacious spots by Alaskan standards. Low voltage.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. We are asking maintenance to go around with a volt meter and check every site. If we find low voltage we will be working on that. Thank you again -- please feel free to tell management while you are staying so we can get specifics. We will look forward to your next visit

This one in Valdez was a very bad experience. Reserved a site that comes with a tent and awning all set up and supplied sleeping cots. Great idea except the tent leaked in a number of places, falling on us while sleeping and the cots supplied were worse than uncomfortable. It always rains in Valdez, tents should be maintained or replaced.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback, which is appreciated. We are sorry this happened during your stay as we experienced an unusual heavy down pour of rain. The Tent has since been evaluated & replaced to ensure this doesn't happen again. We have refunded your stay in full & hope your next visit is better.

Attentive staff. Bathrooms and showers were very well maintained and clean at all times. Nice park.

We stayed in the glamping tents and loved it! Everyone was friendly and the property was terrific.

Thank you for your feedback. We have appreciated learning about your experience with our new Glamping Tents. We all look forward to your return.

Tout est parfait! Accueil, propreté et service! En plus du service de propane qui nous a grandement dépanné! Wifi de qualité pour un camping, les meilleurs wifi depuis le début de notre voyage c’est Valdez KOA et Fairbanks KOA! Merci pout tout!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Merci beaucoup! Nous rejouissons de votre prochaine visite! (My high school french did not hold up, so thank you google translate. I hope it is correct.) Thank you so much! We look forward to your next visit!

All great. Staff was very helpful and their enthusiasm brought out the sunshine! Peter

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Peter, thank you so much for your feedback. We think it was you that brought the sunshine! :) We will look forward to your next sunshiny visit.

We had a great time staying at KOA Valdez! The cabin was very convenient, close to everywhere. My concerns are 1) it sometimes gets too cold indoor. Besides the heater in the room, people may need another heater. For us, the office lady was very kind and lent us one. 2) The shower drain was clogged when we first got in. It turned out that there was hair in the drain! Lots of hair…

The campground is convenient to Valdez and has all amenities. The hosts are friendly and helpful.
Jul 20, 2023
nice to be located a little out to town and I really like the bike path connected to the rv park to be able to walk the dogs

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you so much for your feedback. We also love our just out of town location, providing nature and trees. Thank you for noticing the miles long paved walking path also - it is perfect for walking, running, walking dogs and goes into town. We will look forward to your next visit.
Jul 18, 2023
Everything was perfect and the staff was incredible. Will definitely be staying here again in the future!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you so much for your feedback and we are SO happy to hear that you loved our campground as much as we do! We will look forward to seeing you again!!

Hot showers, clean park, good quiet hours, great staff, *out of town but close enough.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you so much for your feedback. We love our just out of town location, providing trees and nature. One amenity we would love to provide in future is a bus that goes back and forth to town daily; it's on our master plan! Thank you for the lovely feedback. We look forward to seeing you again.

Very clean, friendly staff. Quiet hours are observed for the most part, and off away from town which is great for tent campers.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. We also love our treed location and our tent campers. Each year we try to add amenities for tent camping like our dish washing sink and Easy Camping tents for those without equipment. Master plan includes an outdoor kitchen with multiple stations. Hope to see you soon!
Jul 17, 2023
Maybe consider keeping an employee around until maybe 11pm so guests won’t be forced to confront drunk people to ask them to respect quiet hours

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We have appreciated your feedback. We do list our after hours number on all of our guest services guide that are handed to every guest during check-in. We would always appreciate a call so we can ensure your stay is enjoyable.

Very nice and very clean. Great stay

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. Cleanliness and friendliness are 2 of our top values. We love that you appreciate these things along with us. Campers that appreciate clean and friendly, are usually clean and friendly campers themselves and we love it! We look forward to your next stay.

Liked the layout, not too big or small. Not a lot of amenities which we don't use. Clean. R/R's. Their WiFi should set the standard for every CG's WiFi. Staff was excellent. Located just outside of Valdez which we prefer. Certainly would return.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your kind words and we are proud of our WiFi and happy to read your input about its success. The Team have also appreciated your kind words and we all look forward to your return.

Great staff, excellent Wi-Fi dogs loved dog park

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you so much. We are animal lovers too. Our master plan (to be executed as we have funds) includes a very large dog park, and sites with paw pens. We will be really excited to start executing our vision for the campground and bringing these amenities to life.
Jul 14, 2023
We absolutely love the Valdez KOA campground. Our recent fishing trip was cancelled due to a mechanical, but we decided to stay with our friends and enjoy our time around the campfire. We utilized the dog pen for our labradoodles while we enjoyed a game of cornhole and loved sitting around the campfire each night. The Host, Miss Lori, is absolutely fantastic! LOVE the way she makes us feel!

Lori is awesome

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We agree. Lori is awesome. She is a very caring person, and just loves our guests, the campground, and Valdez. Thank you for your feedback. We look forward to seeing you again.

It was a great time. The deluxe cabin was clean and cozy, the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Meken is awesome! She helped make our stay glorious from the beginning to the end!
Jul 12, 2023
The only thing I noticed, was that it seemed to me that facility didn’t supply maintenance with the materials they may need to get a job done right. I am a very observant person and noticed that the gentleman that worked on our tub was very smart and worked with what he had to get the job done and never said or complained one time, now this impressed me and gave me faith in his abilities.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your business and will ask maintenance what was needed to be able to do the work more efficiently. We agree we have great maintenance staff that can get things done. Again, thank you for your stay and feedback. It helps us improve.

It was great, from the beautiful waterfalls to the 360* view of the gorgeous mountains surrounding the campground. Lori, is amazing from our check in day to the day we left, simply amazing.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you so much for your feedback. Lori is amazing. She is very caring and absolutely loves our guests, the campground, and Valdez. We are so glad you had a wonderful stay and we look forward to seeing you again!

I was very grateful to have a campsite for me and my dogs on short notice. The 24 hr. showers were a great option, though, mine ran out of hot water about 8 minutes in. The campsite was very tidy and the ground was perfect for pitching a tent. I would have preferred a later checkout time than 11. I was "checked on" several times by the camp maintenance person in the golf cart from 10 to 11 am.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are really happy we were able to help you find a great camping spot. With regards to your shower time, we are so sorry you went through that, we did message everyone advising our propane supplier had let us down that morning. We would love to have you back to experience a long hot shower.

Love this KOA. Really well kept and great people.

Thank you so much. We are so happy to hear that and we will look forward to your next stay!

Booked a stay at the Valdez KOA in their Cyclone toy hauler. We own a trailer ourselves in Idaho but was a bit nervous to see what it'd be like. Our family was impressed with the whole process. It was set up for us upon arrive with nice bedding and snacks for purchase. Lots of room for our family of 4. Great communication about check in and wild life in the area. Would definitely stay here again!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed the Cyclone. With it's electric fireplace, king, 2 queens, kid's loft, and 1.5 bathrooms, we find it wonderful too. We are so happy to hear you had a great time, and we'll look forward to seeing you again!

The campground is clean. The staff is very nice and helpful. They communicated updates with us regularly via text message.

The place could be nice, but some services were not worth the 78 $ we spent: The laundry with only 3 machines, the muddy ways (why not put some gravel on them like on every state campground?) and the gender mixed bathrooms. All in all not a place that I would recommend to others.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback. Alas, roadways can only be graded dry; raining/wet they become a muddy mess. Before your arrival, we'd graded several times and again not long after your departure. We hope the next time you visit, it will be a better experience as the Team work hard for guest happiness.

Lori and the staff at the KOA Valdez will do everything possible to make your stay comfortable. As the only RV park in Valdez with a playground, the KOA is a great placr for Families where kids can enjoy themselves outdoors during those 'down times' at the campground.

A very nice, secluded campground in the Valdez area! Many of the sites are heavily wooded, with natural barriers between neighbors that give you a great sense of privacy. The owners are extremely friendly, helpful, and customer-oriented. One of our favorite surprises was being able to rent e-bikes right at the campground! We spent the day riding the bike paths to the Solomon Gulch Fish Hatchery, enjoying lunch at the Valdez harbor, and then checking out Glacier Lake. It was an awesome way to explore Valdez on a beautiful day. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. Highly recommend Valdez KOA!

We rented a camper that is station at the KOA (the 19' Olympia) and it was great for our family of four (2 under 3 years old). It had basic kitchen tools so we could cook our breakfast sausages and make tea. The beds were very comfortable and we were able to keep the camper a comfortable temperature. It had a bathroom or we walked to the campground bathrooms (both in great and clean condition). The camper was in a great spot within the KOA and our kids loved playing in the playground area as well as the sausage and pancake breakfast. Just outside of town and next to the bike path- its a perfect location that doesn't feel to crowded. Overall a great experience- we will be back again!
