  Lava Campground

  So clean!

  The place is big and the locals certainly come here. Each site has a picnic table, a fire ring and some grass. They’re fairly level. The bathroom and the showers are huge and very clean. Small trees at each site now so until they get big, there won’t be much shade in the summer. Very close to the town for the soaks. It’s very close to the highway which is a plus, but there can also be some traffic noise. Beautiful views.

  Lava Hot Springs East KOA

  Nice KOA-Poor RV Sites Design

  The KOA is just off US-30, so easy to find. Our GPS and Waze did not have the exact address, but you can easily see the KOA sign coming in from the east. We were traveling with another couple and there were basically two marked check-in spaces. You have to pay attention to where you position your rig so you don't block office car parking. We had reserved a premium K-9 site and were assigned site 102 at check-in. Site 102 was 1 of 3 premium sites next to the office. The problem with site 102 was 1) there was a truck parked there with no owner in sight, 2) trees that would have scraped the top of our 5th wheel, and 3) a very difficult and tight back-in swing on this 90-degree site with our 40' rig. You need to be an expert backer, or very lucky, to clear the trees at the entrance of this site if you're in a larger rig. Sites 100 and 101 do not have these same obstacles and with the river view, are arguably the best sites in the park. We went back into the office to request a different site and were assigned a non K-9 premium back-in site, 200, in their new area. We would have enjoyed the original site as it does have a nice river view. Sites were under construction in the 200 area and each site is highlighted by 7-inch high and 6-inch wide cement curbs. Whoever designed much of this CG did not understand RVs. It was challenging to back into your site as there are also cement barriers to protect the sewer hookups off the curbs in front of sites on the adjacent pull-through sites. We almost tore off a snap pad getting too close to a curb as the curbs are not sloped to prevent this and based on the markings, a lot of tires have fallen victim to these curbs. Also, we had to be very careful going up and down our steps as you have the curb there as well. While we were getting into our site, a 45’ class A was trying to get into pull-through site 221 across from us. Just trying to make the turn onto this row, he ran his rear tires up on the curb around the shower/laundry facility. He still had his toad attached and had to disconnect it to avoid damaging his vehicle. Hopefully, the management of this park will mark that site for shorter rigs as he also had problems clearing the curbs when departing his site. Their free Wifi was decent. We got 3 bars on Verizon and no issues getting a shot to the north sky for Starlink as there are no mature trees in this new area. There are plenty of other CG options in the area, so we will not stay here again. The main positive of this CG is the staff. They were friendly and accommodating when we requested to change sites. They also credited us the diffrence in cost since we didn't get the K-9 site, without us asking for the credit.

  Johnson Guard Station

  Very comfortable and clean

  We absolutely loved this small cabin. it had a fenced area and plenty of room. bathroom was clean. Must bring your own toilet paper, water and mattresses but it's worth the hassle.

  Lava Hot Springs East KOA

  O.K.

  Bathrooms and showers are very clean, some sites are widely space, but some are crammed together, otherwise, a typical KOA.  EXCEPT it is expensive and they add on extra fees for people, pets, and vehicles; never stayed at a KOA that does this.  Oh, the road noise is pretty bad also.

  Lava Hot Springs Spa Motel & RV Park

  Great in town location near everything

  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.

  Maple Grove Hot Springs

  Great camping and great hot springs

  This is one of my favorite places on earth. They have tent sites, van sites and a selection of shelters to choose from. Camping gets you access to the hot springs from check in until 4pm the next day. There’s running water in the bathhouse with a toilet and shower. There’s yoga classes included in the price as well. The bathhouse also has a nice little shop with snacks and gifts. They sell tinfoil dinners too if you want to really relax. Highly recommend! They offer volunteer days as well where you can camp and soak in exchange for volunteer work.

  Fun for kids, groups, fsmilies

  We love finding campgrounds with unique elements. Hot springs and water slides fit the bill. Tight spots, no sewer were the only downsides. Great groups there during our stay, easy to get around. Nice amenities. Beautiful sunrise and nice staff. It’s a no frills with frills kind of place.

  Extremely clean and organized RV park with cabins

  Just outside of Etna WY. Back-ins and Pull throughs. The usual, full hook ups and WiFi. Park is surrounded by mountains. Very very scenic. Office staff very friendly.

  A great overnight Stay

  The leaves were out on the trees, the water level had returned and the park was enjoyable.  The staff was very helpful in getting us to our pull-thru.  Had a restful night

  We come here every year to meet family. Friendly staff, clean areas, reasonable rates. Busy time is between Memorial Day and Labor day. We always visit after Labor Day. No sewer, electricity and water at most sites

  Lava Hot Springs Spa Motel & RV Park

  Basically a gravel lot with 15 sites

  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

  The Cub River, Preston Idaho

  A special friend has built a cabin right on the river. I have been so blessed to have shared fun times on razor rides on all the many trails up the Mountainside. There is the Deer Cliff Lodge and plenty of campsites all up the Cub river.

  Great KOA

  Great pull-through and the back-in spots are beautiful. Kid, pet friendly, walking distance to food and fun. One of the best KOA’s we have stayed at.

  Wolf Den RV Park

  Small, very clean campground

  Meticulously cared for family owned and run campground with log cabins. Many pros to this campground... Nice wide sites, most pull through, clean showers and laundry room. The people who run it are super friendly and helpful. Great liquor store and great food truck attached to the grounds. great hook ups, reception and even better WiFi. Only cons are that it is just off Hwy 89, but you don't hear road noise at night. No dog park and is over an hour to Grand Teton and Jackson Hole. We did find great hiking only a few minutes from the campground. We would definitely recommend this place. The owners are constantly out doing improvements, which impressed us a great deal

  Lava Hot Springs East KOA

  Nice but expensive

  I would stay here again if it wasn’t so expensive. The $20 fee per dog per night is the kicker for me. So four our 3 dogs at $20 per night added $120 to our 2 night stay, and they charge this even if you stay in a tent which I think is ridiculous.

  Basic and noisy - needs an update

  The restrooms are very old and not very inviting (a lot worse than most of the state parks I‘ve visited), shower door didn‘t lock, water was rarely warm and in the men‘s shower there was no light. Construction work began in the early morning, which was much noisier than the nearby railroad..

  Clean and cozy

  We stayed at the end of September. Leaves were beginning to turn and were gorgeous.

  This campground was always clean. Walking distance to restaurants and local shops. Our riverside campground was wonderful.

  Nice Location

  We stopped her in October and  the water level was extremely low.   The boats were dry docked and could not access the marina.  We chose this campground because we wanted to visit American Falls, which we did.  The area was beautiful, but there was not enough water to create a fall.  

  The campground is very peaceful with very large spaces and well kept.   We has a large grass area with a picnic table and fire pit, fires were prohibited while we were there because of the low water conditions.  Behind our space was the river/lake area that was dry.   Still the park had great views of the mountains and was very pretty.   There are many trails around for bike riding or off road vehicles.   

  The sites are full hook up, there is a bath/shower house and a laundry.  The staff is very helpful.  We were a bit early and when we arrived Jason was mowing our space.  It was completed very quickly.  There are restaurants in town about 5-10 minutes away and a grocery.  Wifi was excellent on T-Mobile and Visible.

  Lava Hot Springs Spa Motel & RV Park

  Great Location

  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.

  Wolf Den RV Park

  Small Campground with Big Personality

  We were traveling from the snow in the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone and wanted to find a place close by with warmer temps.   Found this campground on google search.  Has a total of 14 RV sites, all full hook ups with a picnic table,  some tent sites and about a dozen cabins.  RV sites are gravel and very level.  There is a playground and picnic area.  There is a shower house and a laundry.   The office has ice and some supplies.  There is a package store in the front and the town of Alpine is about 10 miles away.   The campground is very well kept and the owner is very helpful.   Great view of the mountains from any site and in all directions.

  Lovely, clean and friendly

  This place is spotless and well-cared for.

  We are car camping in a Tesla and the destination charge gave us the oomph to go up to Jackson WY the more scenic way via Soda Springs . We were the only guests (weekday after the kids are back in school=quiet time.) Got some road tips and local history from the friendly camp hosts and had a very pleasant stay!
