Great place to chill

Great place to relax and enjoy a beautiful campground. Heated pool, jacuzzi, bike rentals, and more. They loan you fire pits if you don’t have one. And deliver wood to your site. There is even a cafe if you don’t feel like firing up the grill.

Not impressed

We booked based on the description that our site had “more grass” than other sites (chose that since we have a dog) but found a very small area of grass about 2 feet wide. Our site had a lot of dirt along the paved driveway that we had to constantly walk through. Our grill had been moved to the end of the driveway and was full of trash (that nobody removed during our 4 days here). No fire pit. A large depressed area at the end of our pad (& next to that small patch of grass) had standing water in it for a day after it rained. We booked expecting to find a restaurant with a bar. It wasn’t open over the 4 days we were here. I agree with the other reviews that it was close to area attractions. However, the area around the campground doesn’t leave one feeling particularly safe. There were absolutely no activities going on here during our stay. All staff we encountered were very friendly. Bathrooms fairly clean, cold as the ceilings are high and no doors entering so very “open”. Some soap dispensers were empty. Showers are individual. Way too expensive for what we got.

San Diego KOA is A Ok

The campground is very clean, well organized, and has daily events scheduled for the kids. There is a fence surrounding the site, so I am very comfortable letting my kids roam free on their bikes.

Great family experience!

Exactly as advertised. The KOA provides an excellent family experience especially during October. You can participate in the Fall Festival activities while enjoying a hot meal from the Sand Castle Cafe. The amazing staff there goes out of their way to make sure you and your family are well taken care of.

Good for families, but not the best part of San Diego

Nice family resort with lots of amenities, shady campsites with trees, and a nice pool. This particular area of San Diego isn't my favorite, but it does the trick as a base for touring the area. It's about 20 minutes from Sea World, 15 minutes to Balboa Park and San Diego Zoo, and 20 minutes to Coronado. While you're here, don't miss a stop at Tacos El Gordo, easily one of the best, most authentic taco joints in the area!

Absolutely the best campground for the family!

This is hands down the best campground around. The facility is spotless, extremely clean, environment is awesome where everyone is friendly and they put so much effort into making it fun for the kids with activities at the kids club, bike and trike rentals, a super modern pool and awesome gift shop on top of huge jumping pillows, playgrounds and a giant backyard. It’s our favorite camping spot and everywhere we go is unmatched to here. The kids usually ride around the site and you’re in the middle of San Diego so you can go to the beach, Legoland, Sea World go out to eat or door dash some food! Definitely convenient to everything and the best way to glamp!

Very clean and fancy

The campground is essentially a resort for families: pool, activities, bikes, etc. We were the only people there without kids. All facilities are very clean and plentiful. The best part was all the trees that gave us much needed shade throughout the day.

This is one of our favorite KOAs! The sites are good, grassy in most places, and lots of trees. The best part though is the new resort-style pool with two hot tubs, rentable cabanas, huge fire pit, clean restrooms, and a cafe with local craft beer and good food.

It was well kept, aside from the ants 🐜

This campground was pretty awesome.

Pros

+ The amenities were nice, though many were closed due to covid.

+ The gate makes it feel more safe as it's right next to a path by a river, which seemed sketchy at times.

+ During the week it felt spacious.

+ We worked remotely from here and picked up a good signal.

Cons

- ants for all over and inside our van from our campsite.

- It's in a not so great area.

Family Playground

San Diego KOA is an oasis campground. There's a pool, sauna, basketball court, and jumping sand pit for the families to enjoy. They have a variety of spaces to park your RV or Van. Some spaces are basic back-in while others have their own patio and grill. The restrooms and showers are clean and the staff is friendly. There's also an onsite store and cafe that serves good food.

Cell Service: Good WiFi: Yes

This is an enjoyable campground for anyone seeking a place to stay in SD.

Great renovation

This is one of the nicest kOA campgrounds we have visited. They recently redid the pool area and it’s like a resort! Only drawback is that the campground is about a 15 minute drive from the beach. It’s a great place to stay to explore San Diego!

We stayed here just for fun once and also while attending San Diego comic con. It is very close to the Metrolink train that takes you to the convention center.

Nice campground but has its flaws

Very nice campground and very kid friendly. It is also very busy and we found to be quite loud at night. They have a big pool and two hot tubs but both hot tubs were full of kids and there were adults drinking beer while wading in the pool. I am not very impressed with this koa overall but it has great potential.
