Very much enjoyed our stay here. Very nice campground, definitely catered towards families with kids. We were here during the off season so there it wasn't too busy. But I can imagine during peak season this place would be chock full.

We stayed here on 7/10/2015. We paid extra for a premium end site. We arrived mid-afternoon on a Friday and check in was a zoo. There were RVs backed up down the driveway, and an employee was directing traffic. There were 6 people checking in campers and they were all busy. There were kids everywhere riding bikes, skateboards, scooters and everything else. A look at the very large pool showed it was packed with kids too. There were tons of family activities if you like that sort of thing and this is a very child-oriented park so if you don't like kids, stay away.

The staff were extremely pleasant and they located us in a quiet area of the campground, and our site, though very expensive, was quite nice and included log seating furniture. Some of the sites are very close together though. They have a gate with a key code you use to enter the park. They also give you wristbands to wear while in the park, mostly for use with the pool and other things. We never put ours on since we spent very little time anywhere besides our campsite. The on-site store is very nice and had all the necessities and some fun gifts too.

I would use this place as a stopover again, but not a destination.

Set up as our home base for 4 months. We are monthly so i don't know the daily rates, but you can assume standard full service/facility rates here. We've been really happy here, great neighbors, and the staff has been fantastic. Our stay has been fall and winter, which has been really peaceful considering how large this facility is. I think around 300 sites total. In the summer this will be packed with families, with kids so keep that in mind. There are many options for kids to play, and they do set up activities to keep them busy. The only thing we see that could use a major improvement is the store, which is quite small and has a limited selection of food, but they do have the basics in case you run out. Groceries are nearby 10 minute drive. Some sites are pavement, others gravel. some more level than others so bring plenty of blocks. South side lower area (near playground) is busier with kids, on the hill not so busy, North side is more wooded, feels more like camping. Cabins of different sizes are everywhere, and look to be in great condition. Overall the owners here do a great job, this is a huge facility and it's run about as good as anyone could expect. Bathrooms are clean, pool and hot tub are well maintained as well. We watch the workers do daily tasks here, they are really on top of it.

Ugh, it has a petting zoo and a playground. Who in their right mind thought 'gee, we should add the noise and awful smell of a petting zoo at this place where people sleep outside'? Screaming kids, teen pop music blasting from neighboring sites until 11:30pm, bikes and cars whizzing around, very expensive (Over $40/night for no hookups!)... it's a struggle to say anything good about this place.

This was our first KOA experience so we were not sure what we were getting ourselves into. It was a lot more money than we typically spend. Rates went up to $82 on weekend. We wanted to be close to Fairfield as we were dropping our rig off at the Airstream dealership after our stay here. We were here after Labor Day so the summer events at the KOA had ended but the kids were back in school. They offer full hookup 50/30 and no hookup RV sites. Also tent areas and cabins. As with any campground like this your neighbors are close. There some trees between sites. Our site was sloped a little so a lot of leveling was needed in the front. They have a pool, hot tub, petting zoo, playground, you name it. Nice family campground. One night we were having a couple drinks outside and all of a sudden we heard "Thunderstruck" AC/DC start playing. A golf cart with about 10 little carts attached going around the campground filled with kids and some adults. It was actually pretty comical. They have a little camp store. Prices are higher but it is convenient. We walked down and bought some beer and a bottle of wine. Also they fill your propane. You just have to drop it off and they will deliver to your site. The laundry facilities were nice. $3 a wash. There was an arcade. We checked it out one night. The next day they took all the equipment out. Looked like they were redoing the game room as they started painting shortly after. There are many amenities nearby. A Cattlemens restaurant is close by. Overall it was pretty quite at our site but we can imagine it probably is busier and louder during the summer months.

This is a really nice KOA. It's about a 10 min drive to downtown Petaluma which has some cute shopping and plenty of things to do. San Francisco is about 45-60 min drive.
There's hundreds of sites and they're building even more but I didn't feel overly cramped. Typical KOA space..tight.
Internet was decent for surfing but don't expect to stream. Cell service was great here.
Verizon 37mb d/l. ATT 21 mb d/l and T-mobile fast enough to stream but I didn't benchmark it. This was all unboosted speeds. Cable had plenty of channels, electric was a stable 50 amps.
The laundromat was the nicest I've ever seen at a park with large new double load washers and dryers.
This park caters to families and there are tons of activities for kids. I don't have kids but it was fine for me off season as the kids were in school but it was still full of kids on the weekend. I would not personally stay here during the summer because I can imagine the kid situation is going to be insane.
Interior roads were in good condition and easy to navigate for big rigs. There's a newer section towards the back that's much more quiet. If I were to stay here again I would request that section.
The staff was very nice and all of the facilities were top notch and very clean.

This is one of our favorite sites! We love staying here and waking up to the sounds of the cows. It's very green and most sites have a tree. We've stayed here about three times in three different spots. The lots are, for the most part, level but may require a little adjustment. They are roomy and clean, and the staff is very friendly. The store is stocked with all sorts of goodies, camping gear, and best of all cold beer. And if thats not enough it's right across from Lagunitas Brewing Company!

Bathrooms: didn't use them
Hookups: full hookups, honey wagon
Dog Park: yes
Kid Friendly: yes (playground, pool, bouncer, petting zoo)

Though they are working on many of the sites with bark and plantings, some sites are pretty muddy, including the one we were assigned. Big outdoor pool and clean bathrooms.

Cable at our site didn't work at all, despite a new power/connection box.

Road in is pretty bumpy and with lots of potholes. Take it slow.

We have stayed here several times over the past 6 years of full-time RVing. This visit we found they have converted a lower area dedicated to tent camping to a very nice RV section. We had space 99, with a nice concrete patio with furniture, beautiful landscaping, gravel site. These sites had W/E (50A) and a honey wagon comes around every day from 0800-1000 hrs. and empties your tanks, whether you are there or not. This has always been a nice family vacation getaway type park with tons of activities for the kids, central location to wine country or San Francisco, and at $65 per night the value beats all those east coast snow-birding "RV resorts" at $100+ per night, hands down. We stayed here to entertain our grandchildren, a 6 y.o. and a 2 y.o. and it was a great time. Woody (the owner) has taken good care of this KOA park.
