Campground Reviews

Apr 05, 2023
We had a wedding, at first a possible engagement, turned into an actual wedding and then horrible weather just pummeled the Kampground. We weren't sure if we were going to be able to even have the wedding but the staff at this KOA went WAY above and beyond to make sure we were ALL taken care of with the biggest smiles after all they've been through.

Awesome camp ground! The campground was clean and well taken care of. We stayed right in front of the jump playground and my daughter had a blast. Would have liked to have a little more to do but I would 100% be staying again

Enjoyed our park mobile stay. Easily accommodated our party of 4 adults. The picnic table and fire pit worked well for our group.

Wolf and Lisa were the most helpful and friendly people we have encountered in a while. We plan to return for another visit in the future.

My family had reservations for 3 RVs. We rented cabin close by their site. Due to the rains the driveway was washed out with 2 piles of gravel on either side which was supposed to be used to fill in the gap. We were upgraded to another cabin of our choice. It was a very pleasant experience. Staff was friendly. Cabin and bathroom were clean

Staff was friendly and worked hard to maintain the park in spite of floods and high winds taking down multiple trees

We totally loved the secluded campsites and views at this KOA. It felt more like a campground, not a concrete jungle. The location is great for day trips, tomorrow, bay Solvang, Santa Barbara, Hearst Castle, etc..

I really enjoyed the quiet,clean,and professionalism of the staff.

Lisa and Wolf did it again!!! I organized a group of solo lady campers for the 2nd year in a row. We had the craziest weather and they helped at every turn. Road work, trees falling, large area to meet out of the weather. Hail, snow, rain, and sunshine. They smiled and helped every time. They care about the KOA facility and especially the people staying there. Thank you!! SOTF-Lydia

We really liked our deluxe cabin. It was cute and warm with the basic needs in the kitchen. The bed was very hard though. I will bring a mattress cover/pad next time. Due to rainy weather we didn't get to walk around the grounds much. What we did see was beautiful. We will be back in April for a wedding. We are praying for good weather. Looking forward to going back.

This is our favorite location. Campground is well maintained and all the staff is super friendly. If we could we would come once a month. RIP Kevin, we miss you.

We stayed in Yurt 34 and it was amazing. Thoughtful design and presentation- there were even trash bags and a broom and mirror. My 7 yo had a great time on the blowup pillow thing. Bathrooms were nice.staff was friendly and helpful. I highly recommend and will visit again!

My rating would probably be higher if not for the unfortunate damage to the park by the recent storms. Staff was friendly and honest with the conditions of the park so there were no unexpected condition issues. Looks like there has been upgrades done prior to storm to make it nicer.

Loved the santa margarita koa. Sites we lage and the kids absolutely loved the playground.
Jan 27, 2023
Very nice koa, very well kept but such a bummer the so called manager wasn’t very helpful and they have their store closed almost all day long. Being far from any stores it would be nice if they could keep that open normal hours.

Water was not drinkable without boiling it. No hot water in the shower. Much of the park had been ravaged by recent rain storms. The WiFi Signal was weak or nonexistent at all.Despite all rhese issues you still charge your guests $80 per night. Kevin the Emu was pretty cool.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Guest, water boil notice was due to routine maint. to our water tanks the water was fine to drink and gets tested by the county, it was our decision to have a water boil for a precaution. Our park Wi-Fi is for limited use we don't recommend streaming movies. Our rates are posted on web. management

The weather was raining. But the camp ground is helpful and nice. Is there shelter for Kevin the bird? Like a 3 wall sheltered spot? But all in all, great staff and nice area

Was absolutely wonderful just Perfect

Horrible. The road was washed out. Everything was closed including the office. The internet didn’t work. The TV didn’t work. The bathrooms were filthy. I was told that they only had pull thru and when I got there the place was nearly empty. It was the worst experience I ever had at a KOA and the most expensive at $126 with my KOA card. Stay away!!!!!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Were very sorry for the roads in the park we recently received over 20 inches of rain in the last few months. Our internet is spotty due to the bad weather we use Starlink when its cloud its spotty, winter hours and rates are noted on web site. luckily there is a campground out there for everyone

Was für ein Traum. Das ist für uns der schönste ruhepol den es gibt. Wir waren schon öfter hier und würden immer wieder kommen. Der Weh lohnt sich!

Karen, Daisy, and Michele were amazing. We had a Family event and these ladies went out of their way to help me and my family and gave us a seamless and amazing experience. Definitely planning my next reunion here. Thank you so much!
