Very quiet campground. Clean and close to Crater Lake. Nice helpful staff.

Great place, how ever I did have a problem with electrical power, which they did try to resolve. I was moved to an other site. All and all a good visit.

We camped in a 40' 5th wheel and had a very spacious private site that was next to National Forest land. The lake was beautiful and our hosts allowed us to take out a pedal boat after regular hours so we could watch the sunset. Spectacular! This is a rustic campground, designed for the true outdoors person, not a luxury rv resort. It was perfect for us!

Glad we could accommodate. We do get some spectacular sunsets. Love the "designed for the true outdoors person" comment. You nailed it.

If you want seclusion, this is the place! But if you want a peaceful stay with the peace of mind of KOA care, comfort and security (you're paying the KOA price for it) then look elsewhere. Dirt pit RV spots, mice getting into everything, charge you for the showers, and let's not forget UPHILL sewer attachment to get things all backed up for you and your recreation vehicle.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We find that the forest is not for everyone. There are animals in the forest, including mice, chipmunks and squirrels that will enter your RV if you allow aren't careful. However, if you pave over the forest, it stops being the forest. We've said this in other posts for guests that were confused, but we do not charge for showers.

Nice big sites, close to Crater Lake. Beautiful lake on site.

No campground map. Very dusty and dry. Felt like we were imposing on them.

At first I was a little worried about staying here. It is a bit rustic and the water pressure is minimal at best. But after being there a few days I never wanted to leaves. Peaceful and away from it all. Perfect spot. Will be back!

Very pleasant stay, the campground was well cared for with clean, updated bathrooms. The trails were excellent and lots of water toys were available. Managers were accessible and vey helpful. We will definitely be back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two-night stay in our RV. However, we are looking forward to coming back and staying in a cabin and renting one of the many boats. What a huge amount of choices at this KOA! We love the nearby waterfalls and Lemolo Lake. We accidentally found this place and have told our family about it.

Glad you stumbled across us! Bring the family back when you get a chance.

Jim and Anita are a lovely couple who have owned this KOA for under 2 years. They're doing their best to make it a fabulous place but it still needs a little work. Make sure to bring your own firewood, pretty pricey for a bundle. Not really kid friendly, as there is no playground or pool. It's a little bit of a drive to this KOA from the highway. If this were more kid friendly, we'd be back.

I really didn’t like all of the dirt around the campsite. No grass, but it is in the woods. However maybe there could be bark or something to combat the dust.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We agree and are working on a solution. However, since we are located on National Forest ground, ALL changes from adding mulch to digging a hole must go through a lengthy approval process through the Forest Service.

Great location beautiful lake setting and great family running it . It just needs updating to gravel roads and camping sites as it’s just two or3 inches of dust throughout campground. Just been a KOA for a year and owner says he’s continuing to update. Clean bathroom and Showers and washers and dryers work great.

Nice campground... peaceful... big graveled site with easy parking, a nice fire pit and picnic table. Road is a little bumpy coming in but not the fault of campground. Friendly host/owner that personally came to our site to resolve a booking/billing issue. Beautiful lake; wish I would have had more time to launch our canoe and wet a hook. Will definitely go back and stay longer...

This is a beautiful RV park in the middle of a gorgeous national park area. The park is well maintained. The owner and staff are friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful stay and would stay there again if we had the chance.

Disliked road back it is not in good shape and did not like charge for showers. Campsite was nice and spacious. We were charged for another membership fee when we had already renewed and are not able to be reimbursed for

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

To be clear - We DO NOT charge for showers. We provide tokens to all guests at no charge. During our off-season we all NON-KOA guests to shower at our facility for a fee. I'm not familiar with the indicated charge for an additional VKR card. We only add VKR cards when requested or approved by a guest in advance.

The site we had was cramped and couldn’t get the motor home level.
Aug 19, 2019
There was a tractor parked in our space. It was moved pretty quickly but waiting is not ideal when you have been driving for hours. A bit remote but nice and quiet. Bonus points for Trigger, the friendly dog who roamed around with a ball in his mouth!

While this is a nice little campground, by no means is it a KOA! It was merely an overpriced state park. There are no amenities, the algae bloom negates swimming in the lake, no playground. When asked what there was to do in the area, the employee drew a blank seemed indifferent whether we enjoyed our stay or not. Go to nearby Diamond lake for camping that is equal (or greater) to this KOA.

Great park. Staff were very kind and helpful. Loved the area and will be coming back soon.

It was a completely dirt campground. The sites that are supposed to back up to the forest do not really. Our site backed up to a group campsite, dirt, and sticks. There is not a lush forest for the view. There is no WiFi, but we had a good Verizon signal.

Staff is great and I loved being greeted by Bentley. Downsides bugs!!! and dead trees need to be cleared out. Things were clean and I know things are being cleaned up, I may return to see how things are progressing.
Aug 09, 2019
We really enjoyed our stay. The hosts are very nice. The camp is very quite at night. It is a rustic camp which we really enjoy.
Aug 08, 2019
Very primitive! Sites not level, off the beaten track, no water pressure. Nothing for kids to do and lake is algae green with dilapidated boat equipment and mosquitoes that will carry you away . Staff is friendly, but not sure how they can carry the KOA brand. A lot of improvements need to be made. It is however the only camp with water in the dry basin area. Good luck!
Aug 06, 2019
OK not spectacular maybe some more organized activities.
Aug 06, 2019
Lots of mosquitoes but staff, trails and lake were awesome!

Sites need to be revamped. If you have a trailer bigger than 25’ this isn’t for you! We barely got our rig in without incident...neighbors with a fifth wheel clipped things getting in.

We reserved a 50 amp pull thru earlier this season. Between the time we reserved and arrived, the 50 amp site was reconfigured to a 30 amp due to the inability of some units to pull into the site. An alternate back in 50 amp site was offered, but we opted to stay with the original site. This campground feels like you are camping deep in the woods but with all the amenities of a KOA. 4.5 stars!

Where to start! First off don’t let the negative reviews steer you away from this gem! Sites were big enough and spacious, the place was clean and well kept. We camped for three nights and spent the majority of it in the lake and around our camp fire. The staff was awesome and very helpful, we will definitely be booking to this place again! And booking cabins for a family reunion, top notch!

Can't wait to host your family reunion. We LOVE to host family get together's and watch family reconnect away from all the distractions of life.

Beautiful park and great staff. Really had problems with fitting in and around the park. We do have a long 40 foot 5th wheel and were guaranteed that we should have no difficulty with parking spots since they are all pull thrus. This was not the case....very tight corners in the first two rows. 50 minute try to get out of our space and still scratched up the side with a tree.

if you want an out door experience this is it, not pavement, back to real camping. Wonderful management and the lake is beautiful, Kayaking, and boating is also great, not many fish caught but that's okay, great time was had by all and I am talking 11 of us, no complains from out group. Thanks for a great time.

Great comment! "Back to real camping". That's what were talking about.
Jul 26, 2019
Owners were friendly. Mosquitoes horrible! You can not see the lake from the campground. Our site was extremely small. And our sewer but that was uphill from our trailer.
Jul 25, 2019
It was very difficult to park our trailer without hitting the trees. There was very little for our grandkids to do there. And to make matters worse, the mosquitoes made it difficult to even enjoy the outdoors for a few minutes. When we told the office that we would be leaving early, they only refunded us a small portion of what we had paid. Our stay here not what we expected... very disappointed.

Peaceful!!
Jul 22, 2019
The camp does not meet the quality standards of most KOAs where we stay. The camp is in 2 locations. It is not clear that the RV area is part of the camp. This creates significant confusion especially when arriving after hours. There were no separate maps to provide for after hours check in which created further confusion. The staff were not helpful

Loved it here, it was like staying at a state park. Quet, beautifully setting. Very happy and i nice surprise. Only drawback allot mosquitoes, but after getting use to deepwoods repellent was my new scent. I was fine. Loved It.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Way to embrace the deepwoods bug spray as cologne and perfume theme. It's our 2nd favorite scent next to campfire smoke. :)

We got to stay here for an end of season trip, got in the last weekend before they closed for the season. It was a nice spot to camp in our RV and go see Crater Lake. We were greeted by the friendly camp host, they have a little store with snacks and stuff. Wide pull-through spots, with full hookups, which was nice. And good cell service, we were even able to stream netflix over our AT&T hotspot. Great little campground, I'd be happy to stay there again next time we are in the area.

Great place to get lost in the woods. Highly recommend it. One issue I had is the sewer hookup was higher than my drain so getting my tanks empty was a chore.
