    Three Island Crossing State Park Campground

    Nice cabin, but not much to do after 5 pm and too expensive

    We knew it would be hot when we visited this campground, so sprang ($55) for one of the few cabins with air conditioning. It was clean, small, and just fine. But there wasn't too much to do after 5 pm when the visitor center closed. No playground we could find, and the water isn't safe to swim in. Once the visitor center opened up in the morning though, that was an absolute gem. Would probably stay here again but just get a regular camp site. The cabin wasn't really worth it.

    Trail Break RV Park & Campground

    Listen to the sounds of highway cars and trains all night

    We originally planned to camp at Three Island state park, based on the positive Dyrt reviews, but when we arrived there, the posted fee for sites was $34, which we found too expensive for our mere purpose of sleeping and then hitting the road again. We remembered a sign on the way to the park that read "Camping - RV + Tents. Less $$$ than state park." So we figured, heck, let's just go there. We read quickly online that the prices for tent sites are $15. Perfect! We arrive at 11pm, which yes, it's late, BUT the office sign was blinking "OPEN." So we thought no problem. We ring the camp host. He sounds grumpy but arrives a couple minutes later. He is definitely grumpy. He tells me they do accept credit card and it will be $25. I ask for clarification given the listed price online. He says "New policy as of 6 days ago. I'm sick of people arriving late at all hours." Fair enough...but turn off the "Open" sign. I agree to pay it, we're exhausted at this point, and at least the campground has showers.

    Some pros: very close to highway

    Some cons: very close to the highway and a train track.

    The tenting experience: we listening all night to the sound of bug zappers, hourly train whistles, and speeding cars. See the video for reference. The tent sites were flat at least. A basic grill but no picnic table provided. It is probably convenient to have the wifi and laundry on-site, but we wouldn't know because we left as soon as we could after a near sleepless night.

    Trail Break RV Park & Campground

    Clean, simple and decent priced sites

    Tent sites and rv sites available!

    Tent sites are on a nice large green patch of grass. Park right next to your tent.

    The bathrooms are locked for paying campers only and have a sink, shower and toilet. Very clean and nice.

    There is also a locked washroom for paying campers to use as well.

    The owners live on site and are very friendly and are happy to help with questions!

    Very decently priced when all you need is somewhere to set up your tent for the night and get up and go in the morning. Would also be great for staying longer!

    Located in the town of Glenn’s ferry but still far enough away from public so you don’t feel like you’re camping in town.

    Restuarants, gas stations and a few convenience stores within a 10 minute drive of the campground.

    Interesting history is available to see close to the campground as well. Learn about the Oregon trail!

    Balance Rock

    I love getting away with the family here. No phone service.. I plan a trip here 2-3 times a year just for that reason. Nothing better than to put the distractions away for a couple days. One of the most beautiful and quiet places I have ever stayed. Little stream for kayaking or fishing. No power sites but the sites all have a grill and fire pit. Bathrooms but no showers.

    Balanced Rock County Park

    What a find!

    This was the best find of our trip from San Francisco to Yellowstone. It’s a little off the beaten path and seemingly in the middle of nowhere.

    Room for about 12-15 camping sites, many having fire pits, a few with tables. All are along a grassy area and river front.

    We showed up at 4pm on a Saturday and found a spot for our 30’ RV. It seems like it’s heavily used during the days but most clear out around sunset.

    We were able to fish, kayak, hike, have a killer campfire, and check out the stars. Great, free river front camping.

    Trail Break RV Park & Campground

    Clean, well-maintained and easy to reach from the freeway

    The owners are super friendly and onsite. The campground spots are spacious, well maintained and there is a large open grass area. Leashed pets are welcome and mine loves the grass.

    The camp spots have fire rings.

    I get a tent spot for my rooftop tent and they have flushing toilets, showers, kitchen and laundry onsite.

    Well worth the $15 rate!

    nice spot, weird amenities

    i loved my campsite on the water….got afternoon shade. nice wifi signal. i am surprised that they don’t offer showers or running water, since it is available in abundance. i think it is silly that you have to pay extra for the pool. this place is great but overpriced

    CJ Strike Area - Cottonwood Park

    Cottonwood Camp

    Not for the faint of heart in July without a generator. Woke up at 8am this morning and it's already 90 out. Decent sized spots. Right by the lake. Could be advertised as a weight loss spa because of the heat wave. But we're having fun regardless since the sand dunes are just a couple miles down the road.

    Balanced Rock County Park

    Spacious sites with great views

    The park itself has roughly 10 sites (correct me if I'm wrong). A pavillion for day use, swing sets for kids, horshoepits, fire pits, and plenty of space within the canyon. The sites are along a creek with amazing rock formations all around. Very close to balanced rock itself which is an easy hike! Simple getaway from Boise or Twin!
