Salt Lake City KOA Holiday

Salt Lake KOA

We stayed at the Salt Lake City KOA for two nights while passing through, and this place was honestly way better than we expected — especially considering we booked one of the economy-priced sites. The kids were basically living their best lives. Pool? Check. Playground? Check. Basketball, cornhole, and some giant game that looked like soccer and pool had a baby? Also check. And when they somehow still had energy left, there was a little arcade with FREE vintage games. Free. That is a magical word when you’re traveling with kids. The free coffee and pancakes were also a huge hit. Nothing improves a campground morning quite like someone else making breakfast. Even the dogs had a great time. The dog park was actually big enough for them to run around instead of just standing there looking disappointed. What really surprised us was how safe and relaxed it felt. Being a campground right in the city, we weren’t sure what to expect, but it felt clean, comfortable, family friendly, and very well cared for. Everything was in good repair, the grounds were clean, and we met plenty of friendly campers. There was honestly something for everybody here — kids, adults, dogs, and exhausted parents desperately clutching free coffee. We would absolutely stay here again. Five stars from the whole crew, including the dogs.

A slice of woods in the desert

This campground is truly a forest within a city. I was surprised that I felt like I was in a wooded campground, only a couple city blocks from a major city. The pool and hot tub are clean relaxing (and opens at 9am!!!). There’s a playground and a covered picnic area, to eat your free pancakes and coffee every day. I would stay here again and again. Which I already have because my family stayed here traveling out west and now we have stayed again traveling back east.

Salt Lake City KOA Holiday Review: A Huge Urban Oasis with Great Community

When you are traveling through a major metropolitan area, finding an RV park that is both highly accessible and comfortable can be a challenge. The Salt Lake City KOA Holiday manages to pull it off perfectly. This campground is absolutely huge, serving as a massive, welcoming hub for travelers right in the heart of Utah's capital.

Location and Accessibility

If you are looking for prime convenience in the Salt Lake Valley, this location is incredibly hard to beat.

Highway Access: The park is situated perfectly right off Interstate 80, Interstate 15, and Redwood Road. You won't have to navigate miles of confusing city streets to park your rig.

City Proximity: It is exceptionally close to both downtown Salt Lake City and the Salt Lake City International Airport. Whether you want to explore Temple Square or just need a practical, easy layover, the location is ideal.

Provisions: There is a Maverik gas station only a couple of blocks away—perfect for fueling up large RVs and grabbing ice or road snacks without any hassle.

Campground Vibe and Amenities

Despite being an urban campground, it offers a relaxing atmosphere that makes you want to hang out and enjoy the outdoors.

The Grounds: The property features beautiful mature trees that provide excellent, much-needed shade across the sites. We felt very safe and secure throughout our entire stay. Have to be flexible with your Starlink dish location. Our ladder mount was right under a nice shade tree. So our dish hung out on our picnic table.

Amenities: It features a really nice, well-maintained swimming pool that is perfect for unwinding after a long day of driving or exploring the city.

The"Maze" of Sites: Because the park is so massive, taking an evening stroll through the winding maze of sites became one of our favorite nightly activities.

The Hitched4fun Verdict

One of the best parts about staying at a park this large is getting to see all the different RVs and unique campsite setups. No two campers are exactly the same, yet we all share the same passion for traveling side-by-side. The Salt Lake City KOA Holiday really highlights why the RVing community is the absolute best. Great location, solid amenities, and wonderful people make this a top-tier urban stop.

Rating: Highly Recommended by the entire Hitched4fun.com crew!

great campground

We decided to go here instead of our planned stop. What a good decision. Pretty campground, nicely landscaped. Had a spot towards the back so no road noise. Easy to visit the Great Salt Lake from there. People in the office really great- helped us figure out where to eat that we could park camper. Told us how to use the light rail which stops right in front of the campground. We were able to use TV and computer games on the wifi, something we had not been able to do at other campgrounds. Next morning we went into Salt Lake City on the light rail, easy, quick, inexpensive. Beautiful downtown area! The only downside was they would not let us park in huge empty parking lot in front when we were worried about getting back for check out. They did say we could stay in our spot for extra time for a small fee. We wound up getting back in time so not needed. Bathrooms clean.

Thank you so much for choosing to stay with us—we’re glad you made the stop! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the campground, the quiet site, and that our team was able to help with local dining and getting around on the light rail. It’s great that you were able to take advantage of the Wi-Fi and explore Salt Lake City so easily!

We also appreciate your feedback regarding parking. We do our best to balance guest needs with safety and property guidelines, but we’re glad everything worked out with your timing.

Thanks again for your kind words—we hope to see you again on your next trip!

Winter camping in Salt Lake City

We winter camped here so we could ski. It’s a great location about 40-50 minutes to 6 resorts. It is in the city so not in the wilderness but all the sites have one tree and a patch of grass and a picnic table. There is a small off leash dog pen and a self dog wash. Also hot tub, showers, toilets that were clean. We did not use the hot tub or the laundry. The campground is well maintained. Our first site was slightly unleveled so we asked to switch and they accommodated that request. We did have to pay a little extra for that site. We stayed a total of 3 nights. We were going to stay longer but learned that you can’t have dogs in Cottonwood Canyon which meant we couldn’t ski at those resorts so we asked to get out of our reservation early and the KOA accommodated that as well.

Great Campground, Weird Area

The campground itself was really great, surprisingly nice! It was just surprisingly to see the location of the campground itself, with views of the mountains all around, the campground is located in the city, and kind of a slightly shady area as well. We felt safe once we were on the campground, but the drive in was a little sketchy at best.

Urban campground convenient to SLC

We wanted to explore Salt Lake City so decided to stay at this downtown KOA. It is a large and crowded RV park but right on a Transit line (UTA light rail Trax) and biking distance to downtown. The facilities are older but clean. Standard Holiday amenities like pool, dog park, dog wash, basketball court. We’d stay again if I wanted to be close to downtown.

It’s off season for being in this RV park but it was perfect for a quick stop over. The check in was quick and easy. The staff was very helpful and answered all of our questions. The facilities were clean. The hook ups worked great even in the snow. We weren’t bothered by the train noises as other reviews stated. This place was close to a lot of down town spots.

Pretty KOA in somewhat dodgy area

Another reviewer mentioned it’s one of the nicer KOA parks and we would agree. The pictures with trees on each site are accurate and the amenities are good. The games room and pool were closed for the season but we had fun with polypong and basketball (court lights up at night) and they’ve modernized the shower facilities. Didn’t use the laundry. Hot tub didn’t look at all inviting although it was apparently still on. Sleep was not great with the freight trains blaring through the night and the city bus stop on the other side of the fence. Gave it a three star for that - apparently the KOA business model is to buy up cheap land around train tracks and this fits. There are lots of full time residents around (interesting to see how massive this park is) and there is a security guard on at night. We’d planned on switching to the state park but found it lacking compared to this. Convenient enough location for visiting the city. The staff worker we met was so unenthusiastic about her job that it was funny. Lots of sites available at this time of year but they turn the water off to the tent/small RV ones (was fine for us as we had a full tank).

There is a dog park with Astroturf that smells on hot days. But it's a good space for the pups to exercise. Also has a very nice dog wash station several people took advantage of.
