McClendon Spring Campground

Quiet spot and pretty easy to get to. We have the place to ourselves. Small spring and a stagnant pond, but the bugs are not bad. The farthest spot has a table and fire ring.

Looks like a nice spot with a pit toilet, but there is only 2 spots that I saw, both taken. Ended up pulling my truck next to the gate to get a few hours sleep. Wouldn't plan this stop. Amazing views. Cows got in the fence

About 3 1/2 miles on a semi maintained gravel road. Lots of cows. Nice quiet spot with some picnic benches. There are a few nice spots. Plenty of room to turn around. Pit toilet, but no other amenities. Not worth driving out of the way to stay here.

Great spot! Well maintained dirt road and toilet! Great hanging with all the cows. Amazing views! Don’t use Apple Maps. Google will get you there on the easiest road.

After almost missing the turnoff 1.5 miles west of town it was a slow 4 mile drive on a rocky country road to get to the springs. Beautiful out of the way dispersed camping spot. The spring is still running although very small. Saw deer and tons of stars. The road is not that big rig friendly. We have a 27' TT.

HUGE disappointment. We drive 3 miles with our TT on a long steep dirt road, to find an overgrown site with no "spring". The trees and grass have taken over and the spring was dry. You could see exposed pipes, maybe the re-route that water in the summer? There are two sites (supposedly there are 5), one of which is completely exposed to the sun, the other is located close to the "spring" within a mangled mess of weeds and overgrown trees. With the hot temperatures and high winds, we didn't want to risk it. If you have travel trailer, 4x4 is recommended as the road is rough and steep in places. The turn off the highway is VERY tight, watch out of the cattle guard if you have low clearance.

Surreal to drive up and in on narrow single Track. So exciting as you don’t know if you found something special or are lost. Love it. Has many Mountain View’s plus a small forest for coverage and a lake. Place is boss.

What a great find during our travels through Southern Idaho. Situated by a pond with lots of birds made our stay very peaceful. Lights of a nearby town (Malta) could be seen from a distance making this spot even more lovely at night. Pitted toilet. One site had picnic tables. Decent cell coverage.

Google maps led us down an unpassable road. Instead take Tiffler Road/1250 S from the 81 for a smoother ride (still dirt but passable in a 2WD vehicle).

This is a typical BLM site. Be prepared with everything you might need. There is a vault toilet and people have thrown trash down it, so don’t be those people. It’s about 6.5 miles off of a paved road in a well maintained gravel road if you follow the GPS directions in the dark. Otherwise. It’s a good stopping point between the national Parks and the PNW

A great place to camp, but few shaded areas. Clean.

A must for a night or two.

You may be a little unsure when you are driving to it, but trust me this place is great. Offers great views of the mountains and Malta below. The campground is nestled in a nice grove of trees that has a small creek running through it. Really cool trees and Aspen to explore. Vault toilets, no water so be prepared.
