Lava Spa RV Park

On river with a short 2min walk to the entrance for tubing

The sites are very close to each other but the location in town next to the river, resturaunts and the hot springs pools is the reason to stay here. The river is not a lazy river float but an amazing short rapid filled 15 min rip through the towns river. There is a shuttle to bring you back to the drop in to do it over and over again or a short walk.

Location, location, location is about it. I stayed one night and moved to another campground close by. No real showers or restrooms. If you stay here the entrance is a small gravel road to the right side of the motel that goes off to the left. Please, Please, DON'T take the gravel road that splits off to the right or you will be in trouble due to S 2nd E entrance from N 3rd AV alley way

We stayed here for 4 days/3 nights in October.   The location is directly across the street from the hot spring pools.   Our spot #6 was on the river.  We walked across the street to the hot spring pools and a park where in the summer you can tube the river.  At the back of the RV park is a trail you can walk along the  river and will come to a place where you can enter the river right into a hot spring.   The small 15 space campground is right on main street and you can walk to a large number of sites, restaurants, shops, historic museum and buildings and a small market.  All the spaces are full hook up and have a concrete patio pad and trees for shade.   If you need to charge solar the space in front of each spot has full sun.  There is also a path near the hot springs pools that follows the river and is paved.

We choose this site because it is directly across the street from the hotspring pools. Our campsite, 10, was right beside the creek. The temps were below freezing but they have frost free spigots. Wifi was non existent. To get to the hotspring pools we walked behind the motel portion of the property were people had walked their dogs without cleaning up. There are other campgrounds in town but the location to the pools and the creek are the best part of this campground.

This spot for mostly RVs was a no thrills place for people who want to spend most of their time out of the campground or hanging out in their RVs.  The site is set up with full RV hookups around the perimeter of a large gravel parking lot area.  There is more RV sites a little higher up and further east.

There also looked like they had small apartments for rent for the day kind of like an Airbnb.  We weren'table to see the insides of these apartments but they were unfinished on the outside.  There are hotsprings all around Lava and there are plenty of restaurants and small touristy shops along the main street
