Free dispersed camping on BLM land, Indian Rocks offers drive-in and walk-in access just off Interstate 15 near McCammon. The unpaved access road features potholes and washboard sections, requiring slow speeds for RVs up to 25 feet, though most campers report it remains manageable without four-wheel drive.
This former state park site sits on open terrain with approximately 10-12 camping spots spread across a large loop road. Campers can park wherever they find level ground, with a few pull-through sites available for those staying hitched. Eric A. notes it's "not a place we'd stay for long, but perfect for an overnight stop." The proximity to I-15 means consistent highway noise, though most reviewers find it tolerable for sleeping.
Views extend toward surrounding hills and rolling terrain, with one shade tree available for those seeking relief from sun exposure. Roaming cattle occasionally visit campsites, particularly in early morning hours. The area maintains cell service for most carriers, and campers report the sites stay relatively clean despite the lack of facilities. Multiple visitors can camp simultaneously while maintaining reasonable spacing between rigs.
The location provides easy highway access for travelers, with a Flying J truck stop across the interstate offering fuel, propane, and dump services for $10. Anna K. found "pretty views of nearby hills" despite the road noise. Navigation can be tricky after dark, as signage is minimal beyond a BLM road marker past old brick pilings.
This spot works well for overnight travelers prioritizing convenience and cost savings over solitude, particularly those comfortable with highway sounds and basic amenities.
Description
Camping on public lands away from developed recreation facilities is referred to as dispersed camping. Most of the remainder of public lands are open to dispersed camping, as long as it does not conflict with other authorized uses or in areas posted "closed to camping," or in some way adversely affects wildlife species or natural resources. Dispersed camping is allowed on public land for a period not to exceed 14 days within a 28 consecutive day period. The 28 day period begins when a camper initially occupies a specific location on public lands. The 14 day limit may be reached either through a number of separate visits or through 14 days of continuous overnight occupation during the 28 day period. After the 14th day of occupation, the camper must move outside of a 25 mile radius of the previous location until the 29th day since the initial occupation. The purpose of this special rule is to prevent damage to sensitive resources caused by continual use of any particular areas. In addition, campers must not leave any personal property unattended for more than 10 days (12 months in Alaska).
