Power went out for 24hrs. They did not offer a discount. It is a great location.

I think this park & the hosts have great potential, however I think that refurbishing this site back to KOA standards is a lot after sitting for 5 years. There was an electrical fire in the system feeding the RV pedestals. The hosts did not have keys to the electrical box. Fortunately, circuit breakers tripped and the power shut off. The electrical system needs to be checked out for safety.

Very nice campground. Full hookups and spacious spots with lots of trees. We overlooked the creek. I would definitely recommend it to friends. Lake Tahoe is the biggest & prettiest lake. The staff was very happy & welcoming.

Wonderful staff. Facility undergoing upgrades. We would stay there again.

KOA was awesome and accommodated our literal last minute reservation! Life savers! All staff was extremely polite, respectful and helpful!! Thanks for a wonderful trip

Amazing Staff! Very friendly & helpful. Beautiful area and river running through the campground. As much as we wanted to love this campground the sites are quite small with a 24 foot trailer it is was a squeeze! Took us awhile to get the trailer situated with the help of some very friendly and helpful neighbors. We probably won’t return just due to the tight fit. But we enjoyed our time there!

Park is under new management after being closed for years. Beautiful park with the Creek. Hard to enter campsites with 32 foot trailer but staff was very good at directing and doing everything possible to help. Could not buy propane because no one there had certification to pump it. No campfires or charcoal fires allowed although other non city campgrounds did. Worst mosquitoes I ever seen.

This was probably our worst KOA experience since we joined KOA membership 2 years ago. We have stayed at about 8 different KOA’s and this was by far the worst KOA we have stayed at. We will not be back again.

The spaces are very tight and precarious. We had to help many of the campers maneuver in and out of their spaces so they could avoid hitting rocks, trees, or other vehicles. We were unable to fully extenders because the tree branches.

Staff is awesome and so very helpful. Facility is in major need of remodel, extremely outdated. Sites are overgrown with brush and extremely small.

Our camp hosts were amazing!!! as was their staff. i had an electrical issue with our older trailer and they jumped right in to assist with an ohm meter finding 2 bad fuses.in the end it was simply a loose wire.They even came by later to check on us. Great People!! WE will definitely Highly recommend our ,family and friends, And We'll Be Back!!!

Great staff. Facility needs some help.

The employees are awesome. The grounds need help.

The spaces are too small and the entire facility feels too crowded. More like a parking lot and does not justify the charges at all. Even the dustbins that were right next to our site were overflowing and no one cared to empty or clear them.

Very customer oriented - helped us in a number of ways

The camp hosts made it a 5! Welcoming, helpful, and just all good.

Great hosts, very helpful. Looking forward to coming back many times.

We enjoyed the atmosphere of the park, however (having been to many KOAs) it is overpriced for the current amenities. The pool was not open, the restrooms were rundown, and the wifi was unavailable most of the time we were there. We were also charged a $5/nt/per pet, pet fee that was not quoted on the app when we made our reservation.

We found everything to be great at this campground.

Staff very nice and helpful, doing the best they can with old facilities & camp sites that need work. Bathrooms & laundry badly need renovation. Pool is closed. Hi 50 noisy. Mosquitos a problem. Most sites have good space between them but are very rustic. After our initial disappointment, we enjoyed the forest setting & creek was very pleasant. Only RV park at Tahoe with availability.

Great campground, glad it's back open! Super friendly staff, clean restrooms and showers! Cool little gem of a spot a little bit away from Lake Tahoe.
Jun 28, 2023
So glad this KOA reopened Very helpful staff Restrooms �� very clean Deliverer wood to our campsite AWSOME After being closed for quite some time our full hook-ups worked GREAT � We will camp again � here THANK YOU �

It’s very close to the highway which gives a lot of road noise if you are not closer to the river…also, most spots are pretty tight. Did not use any amenities as pool was being rehabbed. One of the most expensive KOA’s I’ve stayed at for what it offered. However, staff and Cory in particular very helpful.

Wonderful!

The campground was taken over only shortly by KOA. Before it was unattended for 5 years. It is really run down, but the die Manager is very attending and ambitious to bild it up. Nevertheless, more than 150$ are not acceptable for the quality it is currently in.

The Upper Truckee River runs right behind campground, which drowns out the traffic noise, as Highway 50 runs on the other side of the campground. Lots of trees, and really pleasant. The weather was fairly cool while we were there, but there is good sunlight to seek out to sit in. The roadways are very narrow, and large RVs struggle.
Jun 27, 2023
New ownership and the staff are extremely helpful. There's a lot going on to get the site going again after being closed for 5 years. So I would say there are some rough edges -- and it's a little confusing with the new numbering system because the signage and the online maps don't match the space numbers. But this will be resolved with time. We'd come back.

Amazing location, helpful staff. The newly opened resort needs a lot of work to get it to the level of other KOAs. Sites are very tight for RVs, need to trim more branches and remove a few more trees. But the gorgeous river front sites and the sound of the rushing river make it a wonderful destination.

We loved it! Great privacy & friendly staff! Woodsy feel and close to lots of activities! Thank you!

Team was very helpful. While this campground is “Rustic” by KOA standards It is a Diamond in the Ruff.

It’s a quiet park by a beautiful creek. When the new owners are completed their renovations, this will be a STUNNING campground. The camp hosts—Emet and Layla—are FANTASTIC! They are incredibly welcoming, accommodating, positive, joyful and pleasant. We appreciated them. Layla went out of her way to help us get the best spot for our RV. It was a wonderful stay.

Like others have stated. Not up to KOA standards. The staff is friendly and I believe they are trying to get things up to par. The campground is very outdated and rundown. Store still under remodel, pool closed, no propane, no dog park. Trash was not cleaned up, full dumpsters. Roads are very narrow and difficult to navigate with a larger rig. Saw several rigs including mine get pin stripped.
Jun 23, 2023
The hospitality was great. They are working hard to improve after reopening.
Jun 23, 2023
Very Friendly staff and park neat with Clean bathrooms. Laundry room clean and functional but very cluttered. What kept this site from being rated a 5 was that they had no staff qualified to dispense propane and a bit pricey even though it was probably in line with other sites in the Tahoe area .

Talk about customer service. The Manager brought us in a perfect pull thru site, helped us set up. This was at 10pm. The next day we asked if we could move closer to the river. Harder spot to set up in but what we wanted. Again, no issues with the move. Manager even moved some hoses we left in our original site. When we returned the next day he ran over to make sure no issues and we got backed in.
Jun 20, 2023
our campsite backed right up to a stream-so lovely. we enjoyed the proximity to tahoe-as we had a few tee times around meyers + south lake tahoe. Although I know this KOA has ongoing construction for upgrades, neither the toilets nor the showers seemed like they were cleaned regularly.

Amenities not up to par of other KOAs. No Wi-Fi even though the antenna was 20 feet away, no television connection. Facilities clean. One staff member was helpful, the others appeared that they didn’t want to be bothered. Store lacking essentials. RV pads only dirt, not gravel or concrete. Sites are too close together.
Jun 19, 2023
It was a tight squeeze. The road to our pull thru site was narrow, there was rocks and boulders, we had to maneuver more than if we had a back in site. They are just getting back open and remodeling, the staff is really helpful. It is right off the freeway, so you'll hear cars pass by, but the river was next to us and it made up for the freeway noise. They do give you a bear warning, it's Tahoe.

The staff is outstanding!!
Jun 19, 2023
Every staff member we engaged with was wonderful, especially the hosts. We were ecstatic to book last minute into Tahoe and had a wonderful Father’s Day weekend. Grounds and facilities were well maintained.

We enjoyed the spot. Very beautiful with the Creek running right behind us , but the site was small and not much room to spread out. Bathrooms need updating. Camp managers were very helpful and doing the best they can. Price was too much.

No bells and whistles at this koa but if you want to camp in a beautiful forest with a wild creek flowing through the back, well, this is the place for you. The staff is friendly and helpful. This campground is a diamond in the rough and one one you can expect to only get better.

This place is wonderful, it's a wooded wonderland! This resort is along the river with many RV sites and lots of TENT sites. The workers here go out of their way to make sure you're happy…Emery is the best! The campground is very clean and going through some updating since it just opened last season after being closed for four years. It's an ideal location, tranquil among the trees with good restaurants down the street and a market. We liked the location since it's out of the busy zone but only 10 minutes to the lake! It's not big rig friendly. The lower loop can accommodate a few larger rigs but I would advise nothing over 40 feet for RV's.

This was an amazing stay the place has come a long way and is improving every day. The shining stars are the two lovely ladies Vivian and Yerika they made sure me and my group were taken care of and are huge supporters of veterans. Will definitely be looking forward to another stay with them as our hosts.

I was here two nights over Memorial Day weekend, so it was a full house. Regardless, the staff was so friendly & helpful and the campground/facilities were always tidy. As a home base, the location is super convenient as you bypass the traffic that goes through the main street of South Lake Tahoe. It's also right next to a river, which we were lucky enough to get a view of and the ambient noise made it so easy to fall asleep. I didn't use any of the amenities other than the bathrooms as we spent most of the day exploring. The showers/bathroom stalls on the far side of the campground are a bit small, but you always have warm water. It's not too far to walk to the showers at the main office which were a more comfortable size. I would definitely stay here again.
