One of our favorite spots

My family and I love this KOA. So close to the lake, town for supplies, and hiking. The kids love that they can go swimming or hit the playground whenever. It’s very family friendly! The grounds are very clean and the pool is well maintained. Cannot wait to go back!

Not ideal for tent camping

I want to first say that the personnel were very kind and when I called with a few questions they were friendly and helpful. My two stars is really the disappointment with the site not being what I expected. I chose the tent site at the very end of the curve thinking we would have a nice view and more privacy but we were maybe 6 feet from the adjacent tent. We literally set up our tent, fell asleep then got up early and left the next day as we had a long trek ahead. We reserved this same site for our return from a 3 week trip but I plan to change that. I did walk our puppy around the campground and came to the opinion that if we had an RV and stayed inside most the time it would probably be a better experience.

Good campground

The site is kept clean and most spaces are a good size. This site we got one of the new premium sites on the edge of the property. The trees are still small so no shade. The sewer pipe in our site was too high, seems like they need to add more gravel to the pad. We will stay again.

An Unforgettable Adventure at St. George/Hurricane KOA: Incredible Staff, Wonky Sites, and Wild Fun!

Oh boy, let me tell you about our wild adventure at St. George/Hurricane KOA! First things first, the staff was like a superhero team swooping in to save the day. They were incredible, I'm talking capes and all! Not only were they super helpful, but they were also kind to our little rascals, which is no small feat. A big thumbs-up for that!

Now, let's talk about the sites. Picture this: you roll up, ready to set up camp and conquer the great outdoors, only to find out that the sites are as wonky as a rollercoaster ride. Yep, they were not level at all, which made us feel like we were pitching a tent on a tilted ship. And oh boy, they were tight. Tighter than a pair of jeans after Thanksgiving dinner. We definitely had to do some acrobatics to squeeze in, but hey, at least it was an adventure!

But fear not, my fellow adventurers, for there were gems to be found in this campground. The pool was a refreshing oasis in the scorching desert sun. Splashing around like water-loving maniacs was the highlight of our day. And let's not forget the playground, where our little munchkins transformed into wild monkeys, swinging and sliding with pure joy.

Now, let's talk tech. The cable and Wi-Fi, my friends, left much to be desired. They were about as reliable as a squirrel on a caffeine high. But hold your horses, because here's where we showed off our nerdy prowess. We came prepared with Starlink and Apple TV, and those unreliable connections didn't faze us. We were streaming, gaming, and binging like nobody's business. Take that, internet woes!

Overall, despite the wonky sites and unreliable tech, we would totally go back for another round of camping madness at St. George/Hurricane KOA. The incredible staff, the cool pool, and the playground shenanigans made it a memorable experience for our full-time camping crew. So pack your bags, grab your capes, and join the adventure!

Highway noise and small spots

This park is not in St. George and off of a major highway. It’s not really a “getaway” by any means. We’re only here for one night. Spaces are small and very close to each other. Little to no privacy. Showers lack privacy as well.

Not satisfied RPI member

Agree with previous RPI member remarks. He said it all. This KOA park affiliate has assigned RPI sites that are the worst in the whole park. These sites are not offered to their full paying customers but to RPI members. They said so themselves. They were short and extremely not level. I saw fifthwheels and motorhome wheels jacked up off the ground. Looked too unsafe. I'm sure that's why full paying campers would refuse to pay $50 plus for those sites without raising a huge fit. So to get something for thise sites management saves them for RPI members. Management said because I was an RPI member these are the sites for RPI members only. In otherwords if you're a RPI member are discriminated against non members. Yet this park chooses to be an affiliate of RPI. I don't think RPI would be happy with the way they treat their members. After a round of arguing with management I couldn't have any other site regardless.... I told them I needed a site close to restrooms and dumpster because of my mobility. I have a handicap sticker and I'm a fall rest. They refused several vacant sites that would have been suitable for my needs. Instead they finally put me in site 39 which was near the end of the row farthest away and no shade. I was in a 23ft Winnebago Boldt motor home. No excuse they could say I was too long.

Pleased with q Quick Drop-In

We came for the night on our way to Las Vegas and were pleased. We pulled into the camp in one of the few times it was at night, but they had clear instructions, our names and a small packet, with Wifi info, and a map for us at the un-manned entrance, which made us feel special. We did have to drive 3 miles down a pretty much unlit road paralleling the 15 to get to the KOA camp.

We wanted a pull-through, so we would not disturb others, and ended up in the new area above, in the back, space 105, which was not level and we had to make adjustments to get near-level. We saw others in the same row as 105 had to move because they could not level. We had a great view of the rock formations for breakfast in the morning. I was a little put out that check-out was 11 am and not 12 or 1pm.

All-in-all, I give this park high marks. Eric and Gayle, (Youtube) The Swiss Army Knife, on the move.

Our 1st KOA stay

1st of all, this was our 1st KOA stay and I am amazed at how easy it was to book online. It was beyond easy and everything was confirmed via email. We arrived about an hour after sunset so i followed the instructions for late check-in our paperwork was easy to find In the late check-in box and we were quickly on our way to our site. We had pull through site so even that was easy and even though it was dark the lighting was very pleasant without being too bright. During the brief time it took to set up our rv, my in-laws my wife and I were very pleased to realise that although we were so close to the highway, there was very little to no highway noise. The park is very quiet and comfortable so we were able to enjoy a very comfortable night's rest. We woke the next morning to a very pleasant view of the mountains to the North and the South from our site. Athough we didn't stay for more than a few hours in the morning, we were able to take the time for short walk around the park and even a short hike up the mountain side just South East of our site. The park is very well kept, neat and clean without being/feeling sterile. I was a little bit disappointed that the bathrooms and showers were closed For renovation/remodelling It was probably noted on their website however it was obviously overlooked by me. I wish we had more time to stay. We will be more than happy to stay here again on our next trip In this area but we hope to be able to stay longer next time.

Red Cliffs Hiking

This KOA is located about ten minutes outside of St George and right off the I-15 freeway. It was all the amenities that your typical KOA has; dog park, hookups, cabins, and store. The best part of this KOA is its proximity to Red Cliffs National Conservation Area which is about a mile away. This National Conservation Area is surrounded by towering red cliffs that have miles of hiking trails through them. It's a great place to spend the day exploring.

The only downside is the traffic noise on the I-15 at night. But if you are in your RV or van you will hardly notice it. This is a good campground for any trip to Zion or the surrounding area.

I’ve seen Walmart parking spaces that are larger and more accommodating

Cramped slots out in the blistering sun. No picnic tables unless you request one and they happen to have one available. But don’t bother, there’s hardly room to squeeze between your front door and your neighbors vehicle. The lot slopes, say 4-6 inches in 8 feet so leveling up is a chore. The advertised available wi-fi in their advertisement is described as “limited” when you finally check in, and that is a gross overstatement. It sucks when it is available at all. The sewer connection is nearly 30 feet from the typical travel trailer connection. And the heat is unrelenting am to pm since shade trees are apparently a premium they decided not to invest in. We’re stuck here for 3 nights hating every minute.

A Solid KOA For a Family

We stayed at this KOA in our motor home over a Memorial day weekend in 2019. We had 50A power, city water and sewer. Power stayed on even during a windy down pour one night. We arrived at about 9PM and a very friendly man guided us to our site pull-through site and helped us set up. I appreciated the help.

A lady at the front desk told me that this campsite had become pretty beat up a few years ago and she and her husband were investing a lot of time to improve it. Even if it is a work in progress, the campsite was well maintained. Wide roads, gravel pull-through RV spots, picnic tables, grassy areas for kids and pets, a new playground, and a serviceable pool (clean but smallish - good for kids) and lots of bathrooms and showers (all private stalls).

There's a great-room down by the entrance (it has additional bathrooms btw) that is very spacious. There are 8 or so dinging tables (with chairs) and an area with a TV and couch (I don't think it had a DVD/Blu-Ray player so bring your own). Mini-golf was a fun activity for my kids one evening even though it was pretty worn.

This site is about 5 minutes from Quail lake and about 20 minutes from Sand Hollow.

Overall, great place to stay for 3 nights with kids. We would stay again without hesitation.

Not the best.

We stopped at this campground on our way to the Grand Canyon. It was very pricey for a wooden box of dirt style tent site. The sites were very close together as well. The showers and bathrooms were pretty gross. Sadly, many of the campers left trash laying around as well. I would not recommend this campground unless you are unable to get into one of the many other campsites near by.
