The staff was very helpful & friendly. We had some issues with our travel trailer and a staff member came over and helped us. Great experience. Views/property is beautiful.

Fantastic location in St Petersburg, Florida. The service staff is excellent and the bayou sites have all been redone. They are recovering quite nicely from our hurricanes last year. Great pool area and stocked market. Really reasonable off-peak prices. The bayou sites are nice and wide, bricked, nice outdoor furniture. The electric hookups have been put on pedestals, great idea! We love this place. We live in St Pete and we just bring the camper here for the weekend sometimes.

We stayed at the KOA this past weekend with family and had an amazing time — even without taking full advantage of all the campground amenities! The grounds were clean, peaceful, and beautifully kept. You could truly feel the calm from the moment you arrived. Everything was neat, quiet, and made us feel right at home. The staff was incredible — friendly, helpful, and made the check-in process super smooth. Even though we didn’t use the pool, hot tub, or rent bikes or kayaks, just being on-site was relaxing. The location is close to beaches like Madeira and Treasure Island, and you can easily drive to shops or restaurants nearby. We loved the deluxe cabin with AC and a private bathroom — clean, cozy, and perfect for our family. It felt like a mini retreat. Everything was truly perfect. Whether you’re an experienced camper or a first-timer, I 100% recommend this KOA — and we’re already planning to come back!

Perfect Cabin Getaway – Can’t Wait to go back! First time staying at KOA Holiday St. Petersburg / Madeira Beach was absolutely perfect! The cabin was spotless, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed — including comfortable 2 sets of bunk beds and a queen size bed, a kitchenette, and a private porch where we could relax with our morning coffee while watching the sunrise. The campground itself is beautiful and peaceful, with plenty of shade and well-maintained grounds. We loved taking advantage of the bike and kayak rentals. I did enjoyed the fire pit we had outside the cabin where my friend and I made delicious s’mores. It’s also just a short drive to Madeira Beach and other fun spots around St. Pete. The staff were friendly and helpful from check-in to check-out, and you can tell they really care about making guests feel welcome. A huge thanks and a huge shout out to Raquel who made sure we had an amazing experience. She not only make sure our cabin was immaculate at all times but she also provided us with useful information about places to visit around the area like John’s Pass, St. Petersburg Pier and War Veteran’s Memorial Park. This KOA has the perfect mix of nature and comfort, and it’s ideal for a group of friends, couples, families, or anyone looking to unwind in a cabin without roughing it. Highly recommend — I’m already planning my next stay!

Fantastic experience. We were stuck between selling and buying a new house for what ended up being 2 weeks. The front desk was amazing in allowing us flexibility in reservations and accommodations for our family. Great facility with tons of activities to keep the family entertained.

We had such an amazing stay at the St. Pete KOA! The campground was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed, but what really made our experience special was Mikey. He went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and taken care of. From answering our questions to helping us get settled, he was so kind, friendly, and genuinely helpful. It’s rare to meet someone who truly cares about guests the way he does. Thanks for making our trip unforgettable—can’t wait to come back!

Location, customer service, amenities and cleanliness make this KOA a great place to stay. We came in at night and had to back up our rig in the dark. Two employees were there to assist us as spotters and helped us to get into our site safely. The bathhouses were super clean! The park has fun amenities to enjoy and we loved catching the Pinellas trail right from the campground. We rode down the trail and was able to have brunch and later an ice cream treat. The sites here are a little tight but this park is definitely family, kid and pet friendly. We will be coming back again soon.

St. Pete/Maderia KOA was amazing! My husbands been here before and loved his experience so when we were planning our last vacation as a couple before our baby arrives, he suggested we come back here and it could not have been a more perfect experience. The staff is super friendly. Everybody who lives or is visiting on site is very friendly. Everybody waves and smiles. The facilities are clean and very well taken care of. This is a perfect camping getaway. You’re maybe 20 minutes from the nearest beach, there are walk paths, you can rent kayaks and bicycles. The site has laundry, showers, a pool, a hot tub and even a little grocery store upfront!

Great KOA for RVers! location is awesome. May be the best KOA in the state, toss up between here and KOA sugarloaf key. Close, enough to the beach, but still has camp ground feel in the middle of Maderia Beach. many restaurants and stores within driving distance. We were there prior to the last Hurricane which shut them down for awhile, but the grounds at the time were beautifully landscaped. Great staff. It’s directly connected to the old Pinellas railroad which has been turned into a bike and walking path that stretches for miles. Nice Walmart on the way to the beach. In St Pete a few miles back towards the highway is a Portillios Chicago style beef and hotdog joint, which we loved.

This KOA St. Petersburg / Madeira Beach KOA Holiday is top notch. Easy to make a reservation online and Diana (over the phone) was super helpful modifying my reservation as needed. The entire staff is so nice! This location is SO close to beautiful beaches and right on the river. Any shopping needs and dining are within minutes. Many activities for all. Kyaking, mini golf, a pool, bike rentals, hot tub, as well as a well stocked camp store. They keep an exceptionally clean camp ground! Sites are well kept. Quiet in the evenings. Fire pit clean and available for use. We will be back! This is a favorite!

Disappointed from day 1. Pulled into a spot that would have worked for a 25 foot RV, too bad I have a 40 foot fifth wheel. Had to park the truck in the tiny area we had outside next to the rv. Now we had next to no room for enjoying life outside. Then we had some family visit for dinner. We thought cooling off in the pool for an hour prior to eating would be great. They wanted $20/person for guests. $80 if we wanted to use the amenities for an hour! Their amenities are not worth that. Basically your typical KOA though, each one we have stayed at has been a disappointment. This will be our last.

This KOA is definitely very low on the list of parks that I have stayed at. During my stay, I had some issues with the incredible amount of dirt that was constantly circulating in the air, as well as the constant sound of construction. I also had some issues with privacy, as people walking by would inspect my stuff, literally. Definitely won't be back.

We stayed in the single cabins and enjoyed it very much. The staff was very friendly, and the park well maintained. The showers/restrooms were very clean. My only suggestion is to do a periodic deep clean of the cabins. I know it's Florida and the humidity is always present, but the cabin did smell a little too musty/damp. Other than that, I have no complaints. Loved the location next to Pinella's Trail and the rates were very reasonable. We really enjoyed renting the electric bikes. We had a nice long bike ride. Would stay again.

Absolutely amazing stay in the primitive tent location. The KOA staff was amazingly helpful and nice. Plenty of options for kids and while there is a fishing spot, it shares the dock with the boat drop off. Low tide will absolutely destroy any chance of catching anything. Putt-Putt was fun and our 10 year old had a great time... Even if a ball went into the construction area. Absolutely love this place and will think about coming back in the future.
