We were excited to find this CG on Dyrt and that it wasn’t difficult to find (in spite of a reviewer’s commenting); but when we arrived, the gate was pad-locked. (Sign indicated open hours; but not that it would be closed for the season.)
Fortunately, we went .5 mile further and found a small dry camping site— maybe 4-6 vehicles could be accommodated. Sign there indicated that there was a 5-day limit for camping. A couple of other vehicles came in; but none chose to join us for the night. Camping area is right by the gravel road and there was traffic coming & going late into the evening & early in the morning; but regardless it was a great site w/ privacy from the road.
Guide
Nice little gem of a bare bones city camp site next to Snake River. No hook ups. There is a dump site, fresh water and toilets. There is a small boat launch. A few back in sites but mostly just pull next to the side sites with picknick table and fire pit. 16 campsites. Some tent campers. No reservations, just first come first serve. No wifi. AT&T was LTE with 2 and sometimes 3 bars. Train tracks nearby with loud train noise twice during the night. Because it is a city open park there are people occasionally driving through. No security but there is a camp host. As of Sept 2024 the price is$18 per night.

Location great close to town for shopping and stay the night if you’re heading to the Tetons. Does not have any access to snake river. The showers were hot. Has a cute little snack and gift shop. We got a spot in the shade.

We arrive without a reservation and they were able to accommodate us. Brinley staff clean bathroom and showers. Nice view of the lake and had grass for the dogs to do their business. It was a gravel lot a pretty much leveled. It’s a great in between place going towards Yellowstone.
GuideThis place is about half full-time residents in the back and the rest short term overnighters. Everything is gravel and dirt. This place is very dusty and it's easy to see no gravel has been laid down for years. It rained the first night I was there, and the roads ( and my site) were a muddy mess. I had the windows open the next day and within an hour, my counters were covered with a fine layer of dust from the Yahoo's driving by at 30 miles an hour. The full-time portion of the park is very trashy. You can tell no maintenance has been done on this place for years. But the prices are reasonable. I only stayed two nights, and it was okay for a stopover.
RangerWe recently used Westlake RV Park in Rexburg, ID as a quick stopover during our travels. It's a quaint, older campground with well-maintained facilities and noticeably clean surroundings, which we appreciated.
The campground is on the smaller side, yet the spots are generously wide, providing ample space for our RV. However, it's worth noting that our site was only equipped with a 30-amp service, which may be an issue for larger rigs requiring more power.
Unfortunately, there isn't much in the way of entertainment or activities for children. This could be a drawback for families looking for a more engaging camping experience.
All in all, Westlake RV Park is a practical choice for a brief stay or a stopover, but perhaps not the best fit for those seeking a more kid-friendly environment or requiring higher power service.
GuideIt's a small campground not a lot of spots, but it nice. Camp by the river, nice views of the hills. Not unusual to have deer or moose come through the campground. 10.00 per night but if you have golden age pass it's only 5.00 per night.

My family and I recently stayed at Heise Hot Springs, and we enjoyed our time there. The campground felt more like camping, with open pit fires and good space between sites.
It's a small but extremely clean campground with everything you need. There are plenty of things to walk to, including a fun play area for children. The traffic is low and quite peaceful, making it a relaxing stay. We stayed for three nights and will visit again.
Overall, if you're looking for a camping experience with a touch of luxury(thanks to the hot springs!), Heise Hot Springs is a great choice. The pull-through site had everything we needed, and the peaceful and clean environment made it the perfect place for a family getaway.
ScoutI found out they have drinking water to refill with. It's right along the Snake River. The only downfall is the tent campers that seem to "live" here. I love that there is a RV dump in the campground. Some spots with great shade.
Guide
I got into the area pretty late and I was exhausted from driving all day so I just snagged that very first spot that you hit shortly after the dirt road and it was perfect. It was small it was right on the road which I didn’t really like because there was quite a bit of traffic from the ranchers going back-and-forth but it wasn’t bad. Once everything settled in for the night I slept to the sound of The creek going by. In the morning I got to watch some cattle being herded which is pretty cool.
TravelerFantastic place to stay! Relatively quiet even with the major roads around. The grounds are kept clean and neat. A great base location for seeing the surrounding attractions!
GuideEasy to find. Short drive from the campground to some restaurants, gas stations, grocery store, etc in the area. There are 2 bar/grills walking distance from the campground. Has a Heated pool. Fenced in dog areas. we were just there for one night while we were passing through. So im not sure how the amenities were, i never used any of them. I thought it was actually on the snake river when i booked it. But its not quite on the river. Lol but it was still a nice stay for the night. The staff was friendly, and the lady at the desk gave me a little stuffed snake for staying at “snake river”. It was cute.
ScoutPassing thru and found this little gem. Right on the snake river and great food close by.
ScoutIt's on Wakeside Lake in Rexburg. The lake is good for boating, or if you have a paddle board that would be fun. The sites are level gravel and full hookups, 30 Amp. Most sites are shades.
Nice laundry facility, bathrooms and showers.
They have glamping tents, and cabins available on Airbnb
ScoutIt is not fancy, yet the laundry works , showers work and the oil is clean yet cool. Which wasn’t bad since it was a hot day!
GuideGrounds look older, but maintained. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We were placed in a pull-in with a 40’ class A that wasn’t large enough. Only had 30amp hook up. Manager got us moved to a full hook-up with plenty of room. WIFI works, Verizon coverage is good.
TravelerThis was an amazing spot. The only thing is if you have dogs watch the outlet from the river that's right behind the camp spots....it's pretty mucky.
TravelerThis is a great campsite. Nicely spaced out sites, peaceful. We were here in July and the bugs were not bad. Just don't follow Google maps directions. It will place the route correctly but then tell you to turn wrong. Just follow the route it shows. There are also signs. Camp hosts are very nice.
RangerA few nice spots right on the river. They have a potable water and a dump station. You need to park and go to the box near the host station to fill out the card and pay. Fairly cheap for a couple nights stay. Only issue was the mowing service was out and about at 6:30am. Luckily we’re early risers, but we just thought it was a little strange.
ScoutGood size sites some on the river. $10 a night. Have a water spigot to fill your tank at the entrance. Only one other camper at the end of June
TravelerAbout thirty minutes outside of Blackfoot before you hit gravel road. We only drove a short distance on gravel before we parked in a wide spot that had a fire pit. We could hear the babbling creek all night. So soothing. So quiet. Poor cell service.
GuideA bit run down. Picnic table covered in bird poop. Site seemed washed out. Kinda sandy. No firepit or grill at my site. Pub and grill next door for wine, beer and basic bar food, arcade, family friendly. Verizon service was good. Wifi terrible. General store was poorly stocked. The area seemed industrial. Staff was nice. Bathroom was clean.
ScoutThe staff are very cordial and have empathy. I love it. Clean. Courtesy. And safe
GuideWe just needed a over night stay and this place was perfect. Easy getting in and out with a 40ft tow behind. Very level open spaces. It is all gravel and that of fine by us. It has a lake view that is beautiful. Very clean restrooms. And staff was very accommodating, helpful and very friendly. I would love to stay longer but it was only a quick over night stop.
TravelerThis is a nice quiet camp ground. Not to big but it's next to the river not uncomon for a deer or a moose to walk through camp it is dry camping but well maintained through the summer there is a camp host. Very nice man friendly and helpful. They are about to close for the winter so the host is gone now.
ScoutIt was a great location. Our site was large and shaded by beautiful mature trees. Very helpful and friendly staff/owners. We had a minor issue when we got there after hours. We tested the number provided and they were super quick to get back to us and help us problem solve. The only thing I didn’t love was that we had to share an electrical juncture box with our neighbors. So there was one 50 amp and one 30 amp on the box. They had already plugged into the 30 which we needed also. Neither of us had a dog bone attachment. I think maybe that just needs to be specified when booking and offering full hookups. We got the situation sorted because of kind neighbors and helpful staff. I would definitely stay again though. My kids loved playing in the lake.
ScoutNear a river! Easily accessible and had an awesome time here 😋
