The most expensive campground I've ever stayed in. My campsite had a tree that hung very low and touched the top and side of my trailer. To be all the way in my campsite and close enough to the hookups my brand new trailer would have tree branches rubbing, scratching, etc. especially every time the wind blew. When I complained...

We stayed here because my hubby was doing some fossil digging an hour away in Kemmerer, and we needed a place to plop down and spend time. We've stayed at a few KOAs, and this one was pretty nice: large shade trees (that made you feel like you were actually camping, vs. parked in a parking lot), large/ample clean bathrooms,... More

We arrived here at 6pm, there was not a soul working there, and very few guests, it was mid-September, so probably out of season. We were tent camping, it was just ok. The saving grace is the new showers which were really appreciated, but on balance not worth the money, it is the most expensive campsite we have ever stayed... More

We stayed at this location for 3 nights, and my kids enjoyed the trampoline area, and the small playground. Our trailer was really close to our friendly neighbors, and the hook-ups worked for the most part. The layout of the facility could use some rearrangement. Especially where you pull into the left of the building; traffic builds up and can... More

We stayed here labor day weekend so it was very busy. The campground has some good facilities - pool, minigolf, bikes, tractor rides, but we only used the bathrooms as we went out on the lake all day. The campfires are a nice touch and the store has everything you could ever need and more. The only negative would be... More

This is the 3rd year in a row that we have returned to Bear Lake and we won't stay anywhere else! From the staff that all treat you like family while you're there...down to the great stores and quiet campground they provide, it's all a great experience. The only downfall this year was that the jumping pillow had ripped just... More

My wife and I and another family who is friends of ours arrived at KOA campground in Bear Lake around 1 a.m. on July 27th 2010. The office was completely unattended and there were no registration forms or pricing in sight. We drove in and wandered around to find a spot. We ended up parking our CARS in a "camper"... More

We stayed in a Cabin at the Bear Lake KOA and were quite happy with our stay. We found the Cabin and the Bathrooms to be Super clean and the staff to be friendly and helpful. We actually killed our car battery the morning we were leaving and the staff was very helpful in getting us going again. My only... More

From the moment we arrived, things started going wrong. Our reservation was messed up and we didn't get the cabin we had reserved. So, after letting them know there was no hot tub in our backyard (we were not aware of this until we had moved all of our stuff into the cabin), we moved all of our things to... More

The KOA at Bear Lake was great. There was a swimming pool, miniture golf, pancake breakfast, and hay rack ride. The children enjoyed it tremendously. It's just across the road from the lake itself so there is easy beach access. The trees there aren't much for shade b/c they have not fully matured yet. Would highly recommend it for camping.
