Most sites are water and electric only and super close to your neighbor. The sites are tiered and the water and electric were up on a hill while the sewer was near our camp. Mostly long term renters. Nice front office staff but this park is not up to par as we stayed last night at a different KOA and it was a 5 star in Perry, Utah. Delayed maintenance in the sites. We moved to a 50 amp site to have sewer as the dump station looks really small. Hard to navigate roads and we won't be staying again. Sorry KOA, you have let this on go down hill

I've stayed at a fair share of KOAs and because they have a very user friendly website, we tend to…read moreuse them in many states. This won't be the case moving forward. I'm sick of the up charging some KOA owners do and this particular location takes the cake. They charge well over $100 a night for an RV spot then proceed to charge extra for every kid, pet, and extra person over 2 people each night. The host at check in even had a clip board to have the guest initial they agree to these charges and numbers provided. In addition they give you paperwork with fines listed if you leave things in the site at check-out. It wasn't the warm and friendly check-in we felt at other campsites KOA or not. This Holiday level KOA does not offer any special amenities like a swimming pool, kiddo activities, jumping pillow, or decent river access for wading /swimming. I'm not sure what makes this one this high level of a KOA except location. The allure of the is for the hot springs in town. This KOA grounds are large with three levels of wide and spacious sites. They also offer cabins but some cabins are just a small box with beds and no bathroom. Bathrooms are located quite a ways down the road in the main office. Sounds miserable to have no toilet or sink for washing up close by. On the end of the property are nicer cabins with all the amenities located just next to the river float entry. But those nice cabins do not allow pets. Also keep in mind that the campsite is right up against the road and very near a double train track that is very active. It's not that bad and can still be peaceful but not quiet from traffic and trains that sound like they are vibrating off the canyon walls as the train enters the narrow ravine where the campground sits. It was entertaining during the day but that first night it was a terrifying rumbling sound. The up side is it's within walking distance into town where all the fun activities are. There are so many other campgrounds in the area that might be worth checking out as another alternative.

We bare had 6' between us and our neighbors with very little space outside to enjoy. It was like having someone in your site all day. After 10 it did go pretty quiet, so kudos for enforcing quiet hours. Outside of that, because of the proximity to each other, it was a madhouse. That was probably mainly because neighbors had little respect for others. I also, noticed the electric service had reversed polarity at our site. I must say it was a full weekend. Every site was filled. I would come off season where your not subject to sardine stacking. The surrounding area is nice. I would recommend Aspen Grove across the road. Very nice!

I highly recommend staying at this campground if you are looking to camp in Lava Hot Springs.
