Campground Reviews

Aug 21, 2023
Pool was unusable. Facilities were dirty and it was WAY OVERPRICED!
Aug 19, 2023
The facility was in complete disrepair. Plus they charged an astronomical amount per night over $150 per. Pool looked like it's been broken for decades. Sites are so close don't have room for even a picnic table. Staff was nice, probably because they were all laughing themselves to the bank.

Loved it- nice managers, beautiful creek right behind some sites. Great hiking nearby. A negative is the 89 highway noise but we didn’t hear it sitting outside when we were by the creek. Some slots are tight due to trees. Ours was level but the site next to us was not. Sewer connection was too high for our trailer but that was reported and it’s something they can address.

Campground is a work in progress. It's under new ownership & management and they are getting it back to where it should be. It is in a beautiful location with trees but lots of road noise. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Very EXPENSIVE $149.88/night. Then when we checked in we were charged an additional $12 per day for a Facility Protection Fee and $5 per day for our dog! No KampK9.

The staff is super and working very hard to bring this campground back to prime. They still have work to do, but I'll bet that next year the facilities will be much better. The internet connection is weak, but the woodsy setting was just what we needed.

Old school camping in Lake Tahoe! Unlike a few of the KOA's we've stayed at, Lake Tahoe KOA was simple camping missing the frenzy of children's activities. We really enjoyed our stay and used the campground as base camp for exploring in and around the lake. We wish to extend our sincere appreciation to Layla (manager) for being "on it" whenever we had a concern! She was awesome!

Overpriced to begin with. Not the worse koa I've stayed in but close. Booked a pull thru, put in my rig, 39 foot and towing. They put me in a spot that was so tight it took me 20 minutes to jockey it around to get in position and manager just watched from the office. In plain view was a large pull thru that sat vacate my complete stay. Manager offered no help. Bye bye koa, no more, I'm done

nice campground near the river but could use an upgrade in the bathrooms/showers and the pool could be cleaned up and opened...

Very helpful, courteous and clean.

Great location and pleasant staff. Sebastian was professional and informative!

Expensive for what is offered.
Aug 14, 2023
Easy to miss entrance, pool was closed, sites were tight and rocky, access road super narrow, trees near roadway not limbed up leaving stripes on rv, dump station in a bad place, playground for kids is pretty much useless, not worth the $111 per night fee, won’t stay here again. I expected a KOA Lake Tahoe to be better.

The campground was nice and the staff friendly but the area is too close to the highway so there was a lot of traffic noise day and night. Also, there are no bear boxes so having a bear encounter was a constant issue.
Aug 14, 2023
Outstanding The staff was very helpful. Campground was quiet and relaxing We tent camped and Bear activity was high but as long as you follow the staffs directions your good

Beautiful location, friendly staff, crowded spots and difficulties with electric hookup.
Aug 10, 2023
We waited over 30 minutes to check in because nobody was at the office. Bathrooms completely unstocked, no TP, papertowels or soap. Bathrooms / showers were dirty. Only saw them cleaned once in the 5 days we stayed. Pool was closed. Staff was smoking tobacco & marijuana right next to our spot. Overall it was a total letdown. Understand they are just reopening, but not an excuse for all the issues.

I have mixed feelings about this KOA. It is in the process of coming back to life after years of being closed. Pros: beautiful mature trees along a creek, availability, vacancy, playground. Cons: price, Hwy 50 noise, small clearances between mature Pines for RV’s, roads narrow, pool closed for repair, no pet area. Recommend they focus on tent camping & upgrading common areas for guests.

The most expensive KOA experience with so little service ! My sit was so small I had barely 10cm on each side to park my 25 ft RV. No swimming pool and no discount for it. Super poor WiFi connection. Showers were old. The only positive thing was the staff, friendly.
Aug 08, 2023
Good location to Tahoe, but expensive for the experience. The sites are just a few feet from each other so there was zero privacy. The campground is right next to the freeway so there's constant car noise. The bathrooms flushed, but didn't have working soap / paper towels / toilet paper / door locks. We also had to kick off a group on our site, which was frustrating.
Aug 07, 2023
Very narrow camp site. My stairs were not on flat ground. Instead, my stairs were in the rocks. But in spite of the poor restrooms and narrow site, your staff were delightful.
Aug 07, 2023
The location and access to biking paths was really nice. The price was extremely high, considering that the bathrooms were not clean while we were there. Two out of the three stalls, ran out of toilet paper, no soap at the sink, no paper towels. The shower that I used had the fan cover off with gunk pouring out of the opening in the ceiling. I would except back to better for $150 a night.

We were setup in a make shift site next to the restrooms. The restrooms were not clean and private. It was the worst KOA we ever stayed at.
Aug 06, 2023
We are thrilled that the Lake Tahoe KOA is back in business! Although some amenities are a work in progress (pool, urinal, etc.) the new staff is awesome and we had an amazing week of camping with family.
Aug 06, 2023
So glad to see this open and under new ownership. Can’t wait to see what the new owners have in store for this beautiful setting for a KOA. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Aug 05, 2023
What a beautiful location and conveniently located. Calm and peaceful grounds, very clean! Only downside was the pool is under repair. The staff really go above and beyond and were fantastic in spotting my husband while backing the trailer into a tricky but fabulous spot that backed up to the stream! Thank you for a great stay and we are looking forward to returning soon!

You have a lot of nerve charging what you charge for this property. Very disappointed
Aug 02, 2023
We loved our campsight . Was great having an escort help get situated. Also Emmery was awesome to bring us gas , we arrived very low on fuel had never been to Tahoe didn't know where next gas staion was or if we'd make it. Thank you for your help!

Very difficult to maneuver our 36ft motorhome, don't arrive at night. Signage was terrible and hard to find and open box for space assignment

We stayed at the Full hook up space for RV. It was everything we needed and staff was friendly .

We stayed in the deluxe cabin. Good things: A/C works great, overall the campsite is clean & behind the campsite is a cool stream. Bad things: No pool, can’t have campfires, bed was broken, cabin was not clean and had dirty coffee pot & dishes, cabin was not stocked with essentials and whenever we went to the office/store they were closed even during hours they say they are open. No one called u

Staff is super friendly and hard working. They are working really hard to get the Kamp back up and running after being closed for 4 years. A tad pricey for a KOA but hopefully in the future the price will reflect the remodel.
Jul 28, 2023
Beautiful site and helpful employees
Jul 28, 2023
For being newly reopen after five years, the campground is in fairly good shape. The staff are all super friendly and helpful. Beware of bears. One visited our campsite around 5:00 AM He returned around 5:30.. Be extremely careful if in a tent. The restroom near the tent sites needs work. $150.00 a night seemed high for a tent site; will do something g different next time
Jul 27, 2023
Not Big Rig friendly. 44 ft with toad and was placed in a pull thru with a tree in the turn. Also had to pass under phone lines that dragged the top of our RV. The people are very nice and really tried to help us. Just not my favorite KOA.
Jul 27, 2023
Staff was wonderful. Wish the pool had been open. Laundry area could use an overhaul.
Jul 26, 2023
The park is beautiful. We went there a couple weeks before we stayed, to make sure we could get into our site. They showed us our site. When we checked in they had us in a different site. They said we didn't secure our site. The new site was in the back, there was more privacy but closer to the road. This park is expensive but I guess not for Lake Tahoe.
Jul 26, 2023
There was more than one letdown or unprofessional moment. The office was not always open during posted hrs, a maintenance guy tried to check us in once office had opened late, but was unable to. Bathrooms; broken urinal, & dirty. No bear signs. Obvious pot smoking above the office, & campsite of maintenance person. The cost was not appropriate for lack of amenities, unkempt & unprofessionalism.
Jul 25, 2023
Our pull through site included a 90 degree turn to get out so we had to reverse out. Our camp side area was a bout 3 foot max by about 7 feet long of dirt. Our neighbors sewer was directly in the middle of this so we stepped out of our camper into a sewer connection. Pool and several other facilities were closed/out of order but price charged was by far the most I have ever paid. Very tight spaces
Jul 25, 2023
Hosts were very helpful and courteous. Shoutout to Emery who escorted us to our site. Thx
Jul 24, 2023
The stay was good. I’d suggest that the website be upgraded as this site still works to get the pool reopened, and fires are not allowed.
Jul 24, 2023
This is a small KOA with very small spots and very windy and narrow roads. Very difficult to get into the spots or even get to them. It's very pretty and close to the river. The staff is very friend and accommodating. However, due to the spots, we cannot recommend. Should there be a fire, there would be no way everyone could get out quickly. Also, move the KOA sign to the road, hard to find.
Jul 24, 2023
The staff was the biggest positive for the Lake Tahoe KOA. The pool was not working. The store was basically just a gift shop. No fires or charcoal allowed. Our spot was nearly impossible to get into, thank god Emory helped guide us but it still took 15 minutes to get in. It is a good looking but tight campground.
Jul 24, 2023
This is an excellent camping grounds. The area is beautiful. The staff is outstanding and really added to the enjoyment of my family’s experience. They are so polite, courteous, helpful, and understanding of our needs. Just a very great place to be staying all around. I highly recommend this KOA site to everyone. Thanks.
Jul 24, 2023
The sites were very close together, although place was very quiet. Watched staff try to help larger RV’s into same site with difficulty that they were not successfully each time. One ended up with damage to roof and warnings as they hit a tree trying to maneuver in to site. Our site was large pull through and we had an overhead truck camper. Very dusty, crowded, staff was nice.
Jul 24, 2023
I was expecting to be disappointed after reading some poor reviews. For us it was grand, power, water, and the dump station had a few different hoses. The place is in need of some upgrades but the only downside for us was the price. The lady checking us in couldn't have been nicer, and like all KOA campsites, the wifi near the office was good.
Jul 24, 2023
We enjoyed our stay and the staff was super friendly and accommodating. We did a late checkout and the staff was very nice to let us stay without saying a word. Special thanks to Laila, she even let us borrow her propane stove. We definitely want to stay here again.

It's a Campground for Rv, etc! Not a hotel, very nice but don't have any amenities like restaurant or a n8ce store 🤔 and the price is high for what they have to offer, and it's not much othe than it's a beautiful rugged area!

Fantastic Campground. There is a wild and scenic river that flows through the campground. Might even see a Bear or two. Very friendly staff. Excellent customer service. Conveniently located off a main road. A must stay!
