Best Tent Camping near Eden, ID

We spend on night there in July on our way to Boulder Colorado. Being an RV resort but tent camping we were a bit concerned about being placed between big RV. But for tent camping we were told we could install wherever we wanted in one of 2 very large grass fields. We end up being the only tent in that field; a few tents were in the second field. As indicated by its name there were many trees which was also greatly appreciated for the shade. The only con was that it was relatively close to the high way so noisy at night.

Beautiful sites with many areas to rock climb. Pit houses don’t stink too bad. Good tent sites.

Tent camped here in site 6. Felt safe the entire night and the campground featured bathrooms, which was a plus. Definitely targeted more towards RVs and camper style set-ups, but good night regardless minus some weather and wind!

Paved parking spot, with access for a smaller camper; a few tent sites. Drop toilet, fire pit, picnic bench, Disabled parking spot. True tranquility and bliss, and skies for days.

Dry camp that fits for small trailees and tent camping. Larger trailers have limted spots so check dimensions before reserving..Lots of trails nearby. Mountain bike trail as well. Weather can be unpredictable so be prepared for rain and possible storm occasional which makes for amazing skys.

One group site and multiple walk in tent sites, each with a good level pad. Dark, quiet and starry at night with long views to the south. Lots to explore in locale. California Trail passed nearby.

Be careful which site you book. Many are walk in tent sites or don’t have room for even a sprinter van. We had site number 29 which was beautiful. Definitely recommend staying in the 1-30 sites. Many back up to rocks but all are very different.

Sweet little county park in the middle of farmlands. We arrived just after dark on a Monday night without reservations and there were plenty of sites. Camp host collected $5 cash for a tent site. Woke up to lots of birds, including red-winged blackbirds, yellow-headed blackbirds, white pelicans and swans. Clean vault toilets. A playground for kids.

I had an okay tent camping experience here.

Price is good at $5.

If you have trouble finding where to pay there’s a little building in the campground where you drop your envelope and take a receipt stub to put on your car.

Bathrooms are just toilets.

Lots of bugs at night! I was here late Aug/early Sept

Sprinklers come on at random hours and it’s hard to know what ground they’ll cover.

It was only 6 steps from one site to the next. Cost was exceptionally high for the pool/hot spring access. Plus the $20 for tent site. Would not go again. We went for the night sky, but the close proximity other campers made it not so good. Also, I dont usually mind bugs but this was ridiculous!! Showers were nice though.

Found this place when we were in desperate need of a last minute site. We pulled right in around midnight and set up. We put $5 in the cash box in the morning. The tent site area is nestled in the trees right next to the lakeshore. There is running water and compost toilets! Stunning view of the lake for sunrise. Would defiantly recommend

TTo start off this is an Idaho state park and requires a fee to enter (was $10)  This is a great place to go if theres swarms of climbers at the City of Rocks because of the fee which tends to drive away most dirtbag (endearing term for us) climbers haha.  There are a multitude of fantastic routes there and some good bouldering to be had as well.  Another one of the great things about this park is they have yurt, small house, RV, and tent sites, so no matter how you like to camp theyll be sure to get you into something comfy!

This is a State Park with beautiful landscaping and walking trails. There are plenty of RV and tent sites. The lake is absolutely beautiful with views of mountains in the distance. We stayed in space #13 with a lake view. The space had its own bbq grill, fire pit, picnic table and full hook ups. The park was about 1/3 full and quiet. We definitely want to go back. We highly recommend, especially if you want to include boating or fishing.

While there was no climbing on this trip we did get to see the City in a whole new perspective!  

The breadloaves has one large group site right next to the bathrooms and parking and numerous dispersed tent sites, some with long approaches so check the map on the Gov website!

The breadloaves are thoroughly catalogued on the mountain project website but some classic to try are Bloody Fingers and Carol's Crack.  There is e ough climbing at the Breadloaves alone for a couple weeks of entertainment but the fantastic Morning Glory Spire is nearby as well along with other smaller walls

This is a no frills campground located in the South Hills of Idaho about 20 miles south of Twin Falls.  Each site has its own fire ring and picnic table with most also giving you a shady spot to set up a tent if you want.  There is only 1 vault toilet though near the info sign.  The campsites are all lined up in a row next to the creek and trees.  There are not many sites so get here early if you plan on coming during the weekend.  It also seems like you could just park your RV in the giant dirt area to the east of the creek.  This area will be hot in the morning and shady in the afternoon as there are no shade trees to the east of the campsites.  A bonus of staying at this campground is that you have walking access to the Third Fork Trailhead!

City Of Rocks National Reserve, Idaho

Fascinating, desolate, historical State Park. The visitors center is out on the main road and has a short informational trail with some authentic pioneer wagons. The signage is good, if you need water go to the dump site on the way in, there are no spigots at the campsites. When we visited the water was turned off so I was glad I always carry water with me. The sites are well spaced out, intermixed with the rock formations. Our site was huge, with a picnic table, tent pad and fire ring. There was a rock formation on the back side that you can walk up on and see the surrounding area. There were several rock climbers on Practice Rock across from our site. The dogs were permitted , on leash, on the trails however I was concerned about the numerous cactus so we stayed to the dirt roads mostly.

cash or check only Great location! Huge grass areas prevent any crowding and all but a couple RV spots are facing the lake. Fun to watch jet skiers, etc. go by. Slight cow smell a couple times but barely noticeable. Vault toilets are spotless. Generators only allowed for emergencies so not sure what other reviewer was talking about. Grass is green - which is great unless you are in a tent when they water Monday-Thursday then you’ll either enjoy the sprinklers or run for cover. I’m in an RTT so parked off the grass. Can’t believe tent spots are $5/night and RV with hookups is only $15. A couple large trailers parked across the way so seem to fit fine. Tent spaces not delineated but I’m the only one here so no issues with personal boundaries. Will definitely stay here again when I’m in the area.
