KOA Coleville/Walker Meadowcliff Lodge

We arrived late to the KOA and attempted to follow the late night registration. Nowhere does it say that late night registration will result in them threatening to call the cops on us. There wasn’t any envelopes. I’ve had that happen many times to me at state and national parks. Never had I had it result in harassment and threats. I’ve always had park rangers catch you on the way out or leave an envelope under the windshield wiper. However this is a KOA and a private campground and are allowed to treat customers horribly, which they did. They started banging on our camper at 3 AM woke up my baby. Threatened to cal the cops for trespassing. When I offered to pay for the site they threatened to charge more and more money if I wasn’t able to pay cash. I was never given a receipt. I was treated like a criminal. When I called them during their office hours that states that it was common courtesy not to arrive after 9. This RV park is along highway 395 so it seems bizarre not to accommodate travelers. They also woke up the campers next to us at 3 am for a similar infraction but state that aside from me this has “never happened”. Save yourself the harassment and threats and a good night sleep and just drive past Coleville KOA.

We were here in June 2020. The park was clean and comfortable. We were able to explore Bridgeport, Virginia City, and Tahoe for day trips from this location. We had passes to get into Yosemite but could not go in due to a road closure of the 395. We’d definitely stay here again.

We stays at the Coleville/Walker Meadowcreek KOA as a base camp during a recent trip to Mono County. We had driven by the campgrounds for years and didn't think to must about it. Well, this facility is really excellent! The hosts and staff are some of the finest folks we have ever met. Being along US 395 it does get truck and traffic noise on the two-lane highway, but with all of the amenities and access to tons of local activities the road noise was more than bearable. Clean and fresh, I mean a really upscale KOA. And they are still improving on what their have done. It's no wonder that it is on the KOA President's list of top locations in the Country. And you ask, will we visit again, you bet we will!!
