Quick two night stay to try our new camper. Had a great time. Quiet and kids loved the jump pillow, Kevin the emu, and the gnome village. Pool was great as well. Thank you to all the friendly staff for a great trip!

it was exactly as described on the website and very nice and clean. happy I was up on the hill a bit as the sites below were a bit more crowded and noisy. Eventhough my cabin was next to the bathroom, it wasn't bad at all (sometimes being next to the bathroom can be stinky with lots of traffic) wonderful place to go for a bike ride, Pozo rd was really beautiful. I'll be back!

We stay at a lot of KOA’s - this is by far one of the best. We had a great site, super quiet. The bathroom was a little bit of a trek, but we enjoyed playing with dogs along the way. The host was really nice and helpful. We will definitely go back! In fact, I am already trying to book it again!

Cabin was very clean as well as the bathrooms. It was nice to have a private fire ring and be able to purchase wood at your store. The kids enjoyed the jumping pillow and feeding Kevin. It was a short drive to the FREE Atascadero Lake Park where the boys fished and children got to swing.

I am sad to say we will not be staying there again. There was a group of trailers that were partying well after 10. They had to be told to quiet the music at 10 by the KOA staff but continued. Called the emergency line a bunch but at 11pm I dressed and walked down to the trailer of the KOA employee and woke him and he said he would take care of it. the noise and obscenities did not end til 12:40.

very clean and nice place to camp

The campground itself was very nice and the staff that we interacted with were very friendly. The level of noise from the five sites below us that made up one big group of foul mouthed inconsiderate nimrods . I understand 10:00 is the start of quiet time, and technically these morons adhered to that, but something should've been done about the 10 hours of loud music and yelling prior to that.

It was a super vacation!!! My only complaint was the internet was terrible on our site #51. I work from home so it would have been nice to get a little work done. But I guess it was a great reason not to work. � Other than that, it was a wonderful stay.

This KOA Santa Margarita is number favorite of mine and my husband as well. Definitely will be back soon and btw, this is our 5th time here at KOA Santa Margarita. I love the place, the staff are very friendly and accommodating specially the owner Karen. See you again.

This was our first KOA experience (ever) and we had no issues or concerns. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Sites and facilities were well kept. Kevin the Emu was a lot of fun to visit. Our site was spacious, well shaded, had water and was not on top of another site (which we prefer). We will definitely be returning and hope to explore the lake and other places nearby.

It was a very relaxing stay. KOA SM is very friendly and courteous. Check in and check out was very smooth. Bathroom and shower is very clean. Although no available paper seat covers for the commode. But other than that excellent stay. Will definitely vome back.

The front desk help was downright awesome, Katie Ann, accommodating, kind, funny, efficient and informative. I tried to get a spot at another KOA earlier, and even though I camped there prior recently, they would not allow my truck tent for some reason, even after explaining I was just there. This Santa Margarita spot was beautiful, facilities were nice, spot was perfect, will camp to there again!

Such a beautiful koa. So well maintained. Didn't want to leave.

Loved the quiet and secluded location. Rolling hills and lots of wildlife to enjoy. We were at one of the two pull through spots. Ours was located next to sewer collection station so was a bit too aromatic for my liking. Staff were super friendly and addressed the cold bathroom and only warm showers immediately when I brought it up. We were very happy campers there!
