The Zoo

*No one has been their best during the shutdown of 2020*

We chose this location because it was right downtown and close to the zoo. Having a full group of 3 kids (5 & under) 3 dogs, 3 adults, and a cat we need some things that others don't "need." We also run our company from the road so we need space, a place to play, and great WIFI. These are the basis of our reviews.

This KOA was run down, dirty and nothing was open due to the shutdown. The wifi wasn't very good. We won't stay here again because it doesn't meet our needs. It is a great place to stop for a night, get up, and go. Other than that....nah!

Things we loved:

The staff was incredible, fun and friendly.
20 minutes from the zoo.
Dog wash and park
Mexican restaurant

Not so much:

Dirty, unkept
Wifi was horrible
No public bathrooms (pandemic)
EXTREMELY HIGH water pressure

Close to downtown

This campground is surrounded by inner city-like activity. The common areas were filthy and staff didn’t seem concerned. We were there for a Month, so I got a good representative time period. It’s close to the train to downtown which was good. The hot tub was old and very small and shallow...and not very hot.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations, especially with the cleanliness and hot tub.

Nice Family Park

This is a well cared for campground, with a playground for the kids.... all newer Rv's I think they have a age limit on your Rv so better call ahead to see.. nice and clean

Thank you for your review! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed our well-maintained campground and the playground for the kids. We do have some guidelines for RVs, so we appreciate the reminder to call ahead for any specifics. We hope to welcome you back for another clean and comfortable stay!

Very Nice Campground

This is a lovely large Kampground (yes, I used a K), that is close to the airport. We expected the airport noise, but not the trains.

Our space was wide and long to accommodate our pickup truck/25' TT and the hosts were super sweet.

They allowed for late arrival, and when they opened, they were very accommodating for our questions.

Month of VisitSeptember

Thank you for your review! We're so glad you had a pleasant stay and appreciated the spacious site and our accommodating hosts. We’re happy we could assist with your questions and late arrival. We understand that the airport noise and trains may have been a bit of an adjustment, and we appreciate your understanding. We hope to welcome you back for another stay in the future!

Great Location ... but loud

I had the wonderful opportunity to stay the night at Salt Lake City KOA! I was trying to find a location that wasn't too far away from central Salt Lake City but wasn't right down town, that's when I came across the Salk Lake City KOA! After a long drive there is nothing better than a relaxing shower. The showers have a combination lock to prevent non campers from being able to use the showers. There is a wonderful dog run made more for littler dogs, but its still a great addition. KOA has a convince store available at the entrance with a very kind staff! There is a wonderful pool and hot tub! If you're late or arrive after hours don't worry about it. For your convince there is an after hours pick up box at the back of the building by the pool. If you made reservations you can pick up your information packet or pay for a space all at the after hours box! If you need help they do have staff on hand 24 hours. I loved the way this camp site is laid out, the tents are in one section and the campers have their own area. It is pretty common to see hammocks around this KOA, they have the best trees for it! The only complaint I had was the noise, but if you bring ear plugs that isn't an issue! This KOA has the cutest cabins of all sizes!

I loved staying here and will for sure stay there again! My camp site is in these photos my friend was just really good at taking down camp before I could take a photo. I forgot to mention there is full hookups for trailers and free WIFI. You can also find lots of good places to eat around this KOA!

in town

we were surprised when we arrived and it was in town. I never had to use a code that changes for a bathroom before. In the middle of the night that was not easy, walked the whole way down and forgot the code had to walk back to get it! No fence to keep people out of campground and it’s in town. It is a clean facility.

Thank you for your review! We're glad to hear you found our facility clean. We understand that the location and bathroom access codes may have been a bit inconvenient, especially in the middle of the night, and we appreciate your feedback. The safety of our guests is important to us, and we are always looking for ways to improve. We hope you’ll consider staying with us again and we’ll do our best to make your next stay even better!

Thrilled Beyond Belief!!!

We arrived after check-in and found an envelope with our information clearly stated. We used the on-site restrooms and found them spic and span; sparkling clean with electricity, hot water, and secured access. The cabin was delightful; warm, cozy, and clean with heat, beds, and a desk. Not to mention, there was a mini-fridge and a t.v.!! The price was absolutely perfect; extremely reasonable and affordable. I will definitely camp here again!!

A good back-up campsite!!

A truly urban little campsite, but if you like #glamping, this is the place for you. It's definitely not the wilderness, but if you need a cheap place to stay, there's working bathrooms and service and even a pump to clean out your RV toilet!!

Weird location and not really for tents at all...

Might be good if you're in an RV but there is constant train and road noise all night long. They should move the tents off the fence line and away from the road...

You are in a weird location right off the public transport and really close to the airport while next to a fairground (thankfully nothing was going on, but heard it can be overwhelming) and off a busy road which is almost downtown...but it does make it very convenient. (although the neighborhood could use a bit of a facelift)

Staff was very nice, but they don't have as many "amenities" as other KOAs, but you make up for them with the location.

Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate you highlighting the convenience of our location, even though we understand the noise from the trains, roads, and nearby areas impacted your stay. We’re sorry to hear the campground setup didn’t meet your expectations for tent camping, and we will consider your suggestions to improve. We're glad to hear our staff made a positive impression, and we hope you’ll give us another try in the future.
