Reservations are available at Cactus River Ranch RV & Campground in Salmon, Idaho, where nightly rates run $35 to $65 for drive-in sites with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer. The campground sits near the river, and reviewers note the non-hookup sites offer easier maneuvering, with at least one 24-foot travel trailer backing in without difficulty. Service sites with hookups are closer together and involve sharper angles, which can complicate larger rigs. Individual bathrooms with washer, dryer, and coffee access add a level of convenience worth noting. Cell service is limited at some sites, so download offline maps before arrival.
