This was our 2nd time staying over Thanksgiving with family in sites nearby. We love it. We utilized 2 sites next to each other, 1 site just below and 1 cabin. It was perfect. We parked head in with our motorhome and our daughters fam backed in their trailer. We had a beautiful common space between us. We were told head in was not allowed, and they let us slide this time. Can this rule be changed?

Very friendly and helpful staff. Answered all of our questions and very knowledgeable staff. Staff was amazing when interacting with our kids. Very clean and lots of wildlife to view.

Probably the nicest site we had on our 2 week odyssey through central California. Too bad we arrived late and had to leave early. Our site was at the top of the campground. It’s sitting on a hill but was somehow one of the most level sites of our trip.

Such a beautiful place to relax and enjoy with friends & families. Santa Margarita KOA was quiet, environments were well maintained, friendly staff and enough spaces for each camp site.

Kids lived the bouncing pillow Our site was narrow, neighbors septic hookup was right at our picnic table. Roads and sites very dusty

All as advertised! Clean, well organized facilities and a very nice environment. It is close to many Central Coast activities as well.

Beautiful campground. Near the lake and a short drive into historic Santa Maria and my birth home, Garden Farms. Great restaurants and friendly people. Lots of interesting wildlife all around.

It was a amazing, super friendly, quiet, and clean. We enjoyed the activities for the kids also, you don’t see many camping areas with kid friendly activities. We will definitely be returning, and letting family and friends know about this!

OMG best staff EVER!!!!!! DAISY, MICHELL, LISA were SO attentive and helpful as well as Wolf and Brandy. The outside worker fellas (sorry don't know names) were always ready with a smile and a 'good morning'!

Thank you so much for the kind words! We enjoyed having you stay with us.

It was nice to get away, but I also needed to work and it was too remote for Internet. There is a Wi-Fi connection at the campground but it was very bad. This campground has a lot of twisty dirt roads on several elevations. It may be difficult to maneuver a larger RV in there. Also, not KOA’s fault, but the flies were horrible, we couldn’t stay outside for long. Also a skunk invaded our campsi

Great stay, this time site 57 stayed but Firday 330 talking and Saturday night it was 430 they went to bed. Saundra’s morning I picked up candy wrappers and some pistachios shell they weren’t very respective of the camp grounds. We decided not to call the after hours number, because they need their rest to keep this beautiful campground clean. Looking forward to our next stay. Thank you and Go

I wasn't very fond of the set up and the list of rules. I get they are needed but they were a bit excessive in my opinion. The showers were gross. The woman's had a bandaid left on the floor the whole time I was there the first shower didn't drain and they just looked dirty. I ended up using the men's room cause it seamed cleaner however they had q tips left in it the whole time.

Beautiful location. Managers were very helpful and interactive, also nice! Facilities were well serviced. Only problem we had, was location of site on a significant incline. Hard to back in.

Nice pull through site and grounds. Nice staff with activities on the weekend. It was a lot of fun and my family and I made some good memories.
Aug 29, 2023
Patio site was great
Aug 29, 2023
Good location right next to the lake and close to Morro Bay and Pismo Beach. Sites are very roomy and spread out, not like typical KOAs where spaces are crammed together. Pretty good shade throughout. Bathrooms were dated but decently clean, however, during my weekend stay, they were not cleaned at all! With only one bathroom per section and spread out sites, campers had to drive to the bathroom.

I filled out the back of site registration already

Super easy no-contact check-in. Easy to find your site and sites are a nice size also. Kids loved the jumping pillow!
Aug 13, 2023
It was a wonderful place and we will return. We stayed in a pull-through rv site with a patio, and it was immaculately maintained. The staff were hospitable and helpful. The only downside was the shower area in the ladies’ side. It could use some tlc.

Lovely campground - our site was great on privacy and everything was kept very tidy and clean. It did not disappoint. Located just down the road from a beautiful lake/park.
Jul 29, 2023
Things were good until I was told to move my boat from the camp site to an unsecured area. I have expensive stuff on my boat and was told cameras are everywhere. Cameras do not prevent thieves from stealing. Some of the equipment I have was inherited from my Dad, it is irreplaceable. I will not camp at this KOA again unless they change this rule. There is nothing written about this rule.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

sorry were not a marina you have been here twice, and the rule has not changed and were not responsible for any theft to your boats and the area is secure and we have security all night

We purchased a full hook up to include potable water. We scheduled out stay 1-2 days in advance. There was no one in the office when we arrived at 1:00, check in time, said out to lunch. Tbit papers with our site outside to pick up. We went to our site filled with water& hooked up. A note in there said to boil water. Should have called us contaminated water is now in our tanks.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

a stapled notice was on everyone map and it was only a precaution due to normal routine maintenance. there was ZERO contamination thanks Management

There were only 2 negatives. 1.GOAT HEADS and 2. FOXTAILS. These weeds can be very dangerous for dogs and we couldn't even escape them in the dog park and because of them we won't be back nor can we recommend the campground to our dog loving family and friends.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Goat heads is not a reason to not come back or refer your friends this is a country campground we do our best to eliminate pesky weeds and etc as we all own dogs here. luckily there is a campground out there for everyone. Managment

Had sewer smell staff very friendly and very professional in their quick response to cause of smell
Jul 21, 2023
We wasn’t there a lot because we went site seeing. Campers and staff was friendly

Lovely Campground. The pool was too small for this hot Day though. Nice events for children. Lovely staff.
Jul 19, 2023
We had a terrific time at the KOA campground. Lisa and Wolf and their team are very helpful, kind and friendly. Santa Margarita is a hidden gem and we are fortunate to live close enough to come a few times a year.

It was a nice campground. Well kept up. Had to wear bands to use facility and apparently there were different colored bands per day and we were not told about that so when we entered the pool we were told we had the wrong colored band on. That was the one we were given for check in. Overall it is nice and clean. We had a nice big corner lot.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Wristbands for the pool became necessary this summer to ensure our guests could enjoy the pool. Campers from a nearby campground whose pool was closed a lot were overwhelming our pool. We're sorry about the mix-up with your wristbands. We hope wristbands won't be needed in the future.

Beautiful location and a very cool campground. It was an excellent stop over for us on a road-trip.

Peaceful and relaxing location! Super clean bathroom, laundry and pool.

Spot #27 - back in RV spot - was very quiet and shaded. Friendly staff and lots of kid activities.
Jul 10, 2023
Our kids loved the jumping pillow and playground. The bathrooms were nice and clean. All the staff was very helpful and friendly. Would absolutely stay here again!
Jul 09, 2023
Our first time camping there , and everyone there were so friendly. We brought our boat and they were so accommodating with where we could park it. We had such a great time and we will definitely be back.
Jul 06, 2023
This campground made this trip all together a bad experience. Early in the morning, the electricity went out and did not work at all. There was no notice or anything about electricity not working and no updates on it. The pool, the only amenity that was there, was very dirty and smelled like someone dumped Clorox. The showers only had cold water and was stuck to the wall making it hard to shower.

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!
