A great site well kept we went during the week so it was little quieter, but we will return

A very clean camp site. Peacocks make for an unusual stay.

Part of a Family group with lots of little kids. Staff was able to secure the 'Alder' loop for reserving until all sites were secured by us. That is what led to an amazing weekend for my 2 y/o grandson's birthday party. Alder loop was secure so kids could ride their bikes and play in the middle area. We adults could then use the fire pit when they went to bed. No hassles, staff was the best.

Beautiful campground, all the staff we met were very friendly. Lots of different things for kids and adults to do. Peacocks were pretty but a bit loud at times.

This is undoubtably the worst KOA we have ever experienced. It is way off any highways typical for KOAs, the parking spots are difficult to get out in and out of, there was no laundry, the attendant was lacking in knowledge about the facility and wasn't very helpful. In some places the trees are not trimmed enough to clear the top of our RV. I could go on but there isn't room.

Nice location with feel of being out of city. Would like more sewer connected spaces.

I’m turning 76 soon and since I am no longer able to travel in my truck camper, this was my first time in a cabin. I was comfortable and appreciated very much the toilet and sink. I tried to activate the TV but was not successful with my efforts. The young lady who checked me in the day I arrived was very sweet and helpful. Since I’m Deaf she kindly wrote her comments and instructions on paper

Overall, we had a good stay, with room for improvement. 1. Communication was lacking, no one returned my voicemail or emails. 2. Needs more maintenance. Litter in the campground in general. The bathrooms were cleaned which was appreciated. This is my first time staying at a KOA as an adult with my family, it seems like KOA's are inconsistent. I'd likely return, with these expectations. Thank

Park is in need of serious maintenance. Bathrooms were not clean, moldy grout. That's if you can find one that works. Staff was pleasant.

We have stayed in about two dozen KOAs in the US and Canada in recent years and Ventura Ranch holds two records for us. First, it was the most expensive KOA we have ever stayed in (although Key West KOA is coming up for this fall) and second, when we arrived a few days after Easter, our patio was covered with smashed Easter eggs, and I don't mean the plastic kind. It was gross.

to start, no enthusiastic greeting upon arrival...it was like I was making the women work now...Had a patio site...the patio was mostly covered in sand as well as the table...furniture strewn about the patio...no wifi, no cable and no over the air tv...store was suppose to be open until 7:00 PM...went to get ice at 6:40, store was closed...sign with store hours was removed from the door...

Site was not level, but nice and private. Grandkids loved the activities. We'll be back!

The grandkids love the zip lines and the peacocks. A great family place, and you can still have a real fire pit.

It was ok. Nothing earth shattering. Our site was not level at all. With all my levelers I was still off 2 inches side to side. Booked a full hookup, but somehow ended up with no sewer connection. Internet was terrible. But other than that, very relaxing and nice walks.

Great site, loved the area, very friendly staff and enjoyed the Peacocks visiting are site. Will definitely book another stay when we are in the area. Keep up the good work.

Stayed at Ventura Ranch KOA in a fully loaded cabin—so easy, just show up and enjoy. Pool opened early, plus zip lines, gem mining, and tie-dye kept everyone busy. Loved seeing wild peacocks roaming around. Fun, relaxing getaway—can’t wait to come back!

Campground was great and very clean. Loved the area and the activities for the kids. Only problem is had was the campsite I was at. A26 is next to bathroom and bathroom path is not marked clearly so we had several campers walk through our site to get to bathroom.

We had an incredible stay at Ventura Ranch KOA Holiday—our family had a great time from the moment we arrived. There’s no shortage of things to do here. The kids absolutely loved the jumping pillow and the pool, and exploring and playing in the creek was a highlight. We also enjoyed wandering through the labyrinth, spotting the peacocks, and trying out the gem mining—such fun and unique a

The only thing I thought of was that if you knew we were checked by someone into our site that day maybe someone would have checked if it was clean and tidy. The table and chairs on our patio were dirty and the patio was covered with dirt and sand. I swept up my first half hour there. Otherwise everything was good. The office staff were excellent on check in and check out�

We stayed three nights, great campsite. The bathrooms were clean and fully stocked. The firepit area was awesome; we had a fire every night. Our daughter loved the bouncy area and the pool was great. Even though we didn’t get to do the obstacle course everyone we saw seemed to have a great time. And the peacocks, though loud, we’re amazing.

I want to come back. I have already recommended this to my friend. She has already looked it up on line and wants to come. Our kids had fun running around. The zip line adventure was great!!

We were disappointed in our accommodations, not with the park. We found the activities, pool, park, etc to be great which is why I gave this stars. However our actual accommodations were disappointing. For that price point we dealt with a huge amount of spiders/remains of spiders, barely clean bathroom, living space and rickety furniture. We would not stay in these higher price cabins again.

The staff is always friendly and helpful. It was good to see the pool open early. They need to have the gold mine open more often. Especially when the park is booked. and after three years, the rock climbing. Wall is still broken and closed. The kids love the jumping pillow.

We had late check in and they called to say they'd leave the envelope for us at the front. When we arrived, it was not there. We had to call the after hours number and someone came to open the unit but then the code didn't work. We had to wait again for someone else to come open the unit. The campground overall was very unkept - trash overflowing, bathrooms not clean, lost and found items everwh

Reserved and paid for a back in patio site. Was given an all gravel no patio site. Staff said I got what I paid for. Tried to show them I clearly didn’t and they could see on their end as well that I reserved and paid for a patio site but they didn’t have any available. I would like a refund for at least the difference as I paid for a better site than I received.
