Richland Creek Recreation Area

Went during opening weekend for hunting. But there was enough space it didn't feel crowded at all. We really enjoyed the hiking trail.

Campground is beautiful, but had some decent size mud holes coming in.  If it has had significant rain, this may be a problem for 2 wd vehicles.  The county and forest service road getting here is gravel / dirt.  Sites are fairly level but that could change with rain.  If you are equipped for primitive camping, this is a great spot.  Vault toilets, no cell service, just purely nature.

Water was clear & beautiful. Perfect places to dip your toes or submerge your body along the Twin Falls hike. The water was very low during our visit. There are campsites along the road on your way to the Richland Creek sites, if interested. Some of them are located in breathtaking scenery near the water. I can't wait to go back. Warning: Gravel road leading to the campsite has deep potholes and there are a couple of bad washouts where half the road is missing. One washout leads off a cliff, so drive slow. For those who get car sick, take your motion sickness meds before traveling on Old Hwy 27.
