Sites are very small, and many of the trees throughout the park need some maintenance. Larger rigs may be challenged navigating the facilities. There are two separate parks adjacent to each other and many full time residents. It's not the nicest neighborhood either - and there's not a lot of food within walking distance unless you want the junk variety. Office is open late which is a plus. Bathrooms are modern and very clean. There is a MH wash next door which is convenient. Not the best KOA - but not the worst either.

KOA does it again! This campground in the heart of Salt Lake City creates an illusion of isolation be a high, greenery covered wall surrounding the compound. Amenities abound and the only drawback we experienced was that the gas fire pits where we’d planned to roast marshmallows was non-functional. Friendly staff, 24hr security, and multiple fast food joints nearby make this a wonderful place to create a home base from which to explore SLC.

Very friendly staff, well maintained park and very convenient if you are traveling on I-80. However, it isn't in a very nice neighborhood. I was hoping to walk around after we got in but didn't feel it was safe. Also, they do advise you to double lock your bikes when staying there.

Upfront, I had read some concerning comments about how this park was in a dicey part of town and that folks felt unsafe - we didn't fell that at all. It is definitely not in a fancy area, and homeless do exist nearby, but they never even got close to the park and the front desk has roving security patrols at night - we were definitely on the look for anything sketchy.

The park is very centrally located, which allows you to bounce out to a lot of different locations in SLC area, but yes it is definitely in an industrial area. It is, however, located next to a light rail/train station into town, which is nice.

The pool and playground were both nice, and both pretty secure from nearby foot traffic, but playground is still undergoing renovations with big walls coming in soon. Front desk was super responsive/helpful, to include delivering ice to your campsite for free.

There was only one other bathroom station aside from the front office, and if you are in a back row it's gonna be a good walk/bike ride to the pool/playground, so bear that in mind. Bathrooms/showers were clean but a bit dated. Sites were level and good enough space between - not a ton but not also not super cramped.

All in all, would definitely return.

There's not many places to stay near downtown Salt Lake City, and the KOA was great! We enjoyed exploring Temple Square, City Creek Shopping Center, and swimming in the pool.

The park was clean, efficient, safe, and the staff we interacted with were great!

If you're looking for an RV park that's relatively easy to access from the highway, with clean sites and walking trails right out your door, the Salt Lake City KOA is a good choice. If budget matters or if you're seeking to dodge the crowds, though, you might want to look outside the city for another option.

The facilities are clean and decent, and the grass between the sites is the kind that makes you want to be five again so you can roll around in it. The walking trail goes from the back of the park to the Jordan River and state fairgrounds. The staff were helpful and never bothersome, although the campsite adheres to the usual strict KOA rules.

Easy access into downtown using the light rail. Got kids? Don't miss the Leonardo Museum. We may return to the area JUST for that.

Has a nice pool and hot tub and laundry. Don't have kids? Might want to avoid the hot tub, the kids had it pretty well overrun.

We paid extra for an end site, a "deluxe patio site", which was pretty sweet. We had upgraded lawn furniture, no neighbors, and a wall of shrubs to have our own little private oasis.

The trail on the Jordan river is pretty depressing. Homeless, drug users, graffiti. Not the place to take the kids. I rode the trail all the way south, and as soon as it gets out of SLC proper and into Provo it becomes wonderful.

The campsites are fairly close together and offer no privacy. This is typical for nearly all KOAs and private campgrounds so if this turns you off, keep on driving.

However, this CG offers excellent access to all of the city and even has a light rail station right in front of the campground. While this location is in an urban location and close to rail lines, the airport and highway, these sounds all blended into a typical urban white noise. The normal flight path of jets at the airport do not take them anywhere near the campground, the highway is far enough that you don’t hear it and the trains are far enough away to be in the background.

The CG is located in a light industrial section of town but we felt quite safe.

Most of the sites are sufficiently angled that despite being on top of each other, you do have some sense of separation. There are trees throughout the site which would be very welcome on hot sunny days. However, those same trees can block satellite TV, but there are excellent over the air channels and the campground has decent cable TV so you shljldn’t miss your satellite.

This park has AMAZING free WiFi. We clocked speeds of 60MB down and 30 to 40 up on the CG WiFi network! Even when th CG was full, we got close to those speeds. Also, Verizon had blazing fast speeds. Did not try AT&T or any other carrier, but being in an urban area these should have been fine as well.

The staff are friendly, all the utilities worked properly. Most of the sites are pull through and can accommodate the largest rigs.
