Placerville KOA Journey

LOUD Non-stop freeway noise!!!! Not relaxing our quiet at all. The low # rv spots are horrible for light sleepers. Had spot 15 booked for 3 days & cut trip short after 2 days. Would've left after day 1 & no sleep but no refund was offered when asked & we had a 2 day event close by so stuck it out for 2 days. Pool area is nice but always crowded. Freeway noise never stops despite late night or early mornings & can be heard through entire campground. Stay anywhere else if you value sleep or quiet when camping.

We had a wonderful stay. Only planned on a one night pass thru and we ended up staying three nights.
We loved our site, #22. Good shade. Close to pool, hot tub, office, laundry, dog park.
Staff was very attentive and responded immediately to any and all requests.

Great location to enjoy the amazing and beautiful Sierra Nevada Mountains. South Lake Tahoe is merely an hour or so away. But there is plenty to do all around this area.
I gave it four stars due to the heat. It can get very hot, especially if you have direct sun. It’s also very kid friendly, which is awesome for young families but not so if you are past that period in life.
So if you have young ones and looking for a short get away it’s a 5. If you are older and looking for resort leisure it’s a 4.

It was perfect for me to bring my grandson for a couple of days before he heads back to school. You can hear 50 especially on one side of the park. But the staff are very friendly and accommodating.
It's not rain forest or way out dispersed. My grandson is 5 so he is happy making friends to play with. Overall easy to get to, good staff. Clean place.

Great RV Resort. They do have a lot of rules that I haven't experienced at other places, and you have to pay a $3 fee for any guests that visit - every time they visit.  But, I had a great stay. Very family friendly. They have a playground, an arcade, miniature golf, and a pool. Also, they show movies in a large tent on the weekends. The office has a small store in it too. Amenities also include laundry room, showers, and fishing from a pond. They also have a grassed and fenced  pet area. They have cabins to rent, tent camping sites, and various kinds of RV sites. The grounds are clean. I will be staying here again.

My business trip kept extending to where I spent 71 nights here.  The staff are great and very accommodating. There are a lot of activities for children and animal life to entertain.  Everything from geese with their baby’s to ducks with little ducklings and a pet goat.  A free Saturday train runs in the afternoon thrilling children and adults alike. I would recommend this park to everyone.

I’ve stayed here a few times in our Motorhome and it’s been great! Hosts are friendly, very welcoming and helpful. I like the location, quick drive west to Folsom, or East to Apple Hill and everything in between.

Unfortunately, our trip here was not for pleasure, but it was a nice place to park for a few nights. A little close to the freeway, but the noise is really only heard in the morning. I would suggest the back-in sites on the north side. The park has several amenities for kids, swings, goat petting, playground, pool, mini-golf, etc. I hope to get back up here to stay in the future.

Had a wonderful weekend getaway at the resort! Got a 1 room cabin, clean, decent amount of space, nice microwave and fridge, smart TV and a cute porch swing! Bed was comfortable too! The views were lovely and the area was so quiet and peaceful. Hot tub and pool was clean and well kept. Bathroom/ showers were also nice. Will return again!

Great place so far, it is close to road but really not bad at all. You AC or heater is louder. Sites are really nice, and has great areas for kids in between area trips. Looks well maintained as well.

It was a great campground! Staff was wonderful! We will definitely be back! Loved the playground. The movie on Friday night was played very loud which was a bit of a problem for getting my son to sleep. The movie Saturday was at a much better level. It is close to Hwy 50 which is great for getting there but means you can also hear traffic at all hours. My son absolutely loved the train ride with the golf cart! He is still talking about that, and the mini golf, and petting the goats!
