SUMMARY PRESENTED BY
Rock Creek RV Park allows pets throughout its tranquil canyon setting where campers can enjoy water and electric hookups for $20 per night. The park maintains grassy sites with picnic tables along a creek, offering both back-in spaces (sites 1-9) with mature trees and pull-through options in the newer section. Twin Falls County Fairgrounds accommodates pets with full hookup sites for $21.20 nightly or $106 weekly, featuring private bathroom "suites" with toilets, sinks, and showers. Several campgrounds in the area maintain pet-friendly policies including Twin Falls 93 RV Park with its exceptionally well-designed dog runs, and Oregon Trail Campground which offers year-round access. The sites at Rock Creek are clean, level, and newly landscaped with ample trash containers throughout.
A paved walking trail runs alongside Rock Creek for approximately two miles, providing excellent pet exercise opportunities within the canyon. Dogs must remain under supervision, either on leash or in kennels, as free roaming is not permitted at most campgrounds. The surrounding area offers additional recreation at Snake River Canyons Park, which features free camping with picnic tables, toilets, and a horse corral. For pet owners needing veterinary services, Twin Falls is just minutes away with complete shopping options. Seasonal considerations include active sprinkler systems Monday through Thursday at Rock Creek RV Park, which can surprise campers and pets during early morning hours. The park has a strict no-tent policy due to shallow buried sprinkler lines that could be damaged by tent stakes.

GuideOregon Trail Campground
Very friendly and helpful staff.
We stayed at Oregon Trail Campground in Twin Falls, Idaho in September 2021. This park is a FHU pull-thru site and also has back-in sites. Our site was flat and level and a snap to set up our fifth wheel. The staff here was very nice and helpful with restaurant recommendations. The only negative for us was that we had to take our pets to the pet area, which was at the far corner of the park, and pets are not allowed to potty on any trees or shrubs. Signs were everywhere stating this. It was difficult to get our dogs quickly to the dog area, which is very small and swampy, when they really had to pee. Other than that we enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay here again.

Quiet but close quarters
Road noise is minimal depending on where you are in the RV park. Love the amenities for everyone (playground, dog parks, pool, mini golf, etc). Full hook ups available. $45 w/KOA membership (10% off), pull-through, full hook-ups. Would stay again. Very friendly and helpful family who run it. Only downside is shared pull-throughs: Literally looking in the window of our neighbors on driver’s side. There are cabins here.

Expensive run down RV Park
Twin Falls 93 RV Park is an expensive, run down, in need of repair rv park that provides only the basics. It offers restrooms, showers, laundry, dog parks and is about 15 minutes from the city of Twin Falls. Our site was not level (off about 4 inches) and many other sites were not level either. Most motor homes had the front tires off the ground. Unfortunately, they are very expensive for what you get, which includes sites that are only 50 feet or less in length (forcing you to park your truck sideways if you have a trailer over 35 feet or motor home), even though they say they are deluxe sites and big rig friendly. Many times there were Class As and Class Cs that were parked in the rv park roads by several feet due to the sites not being long enough. When driving through the park you have to be very careful due to so many big rigs extending past the short sites and into the interior roads. On some of the sites, the grassy area with the hookups is higher than the rest of the site, making it difficult to hook up the sewer so that it drains properly. There is a man made concrete pond that is completely dry and full of debris, as if it hasn’t been used in years. The whole time we were there, 2 of the dryers in the laundry room were broken, and the remaining dryers required 2 cycles (double the cost) to actually dry the clothes. There is a bench in one dog park that has a broken back, which was not fixed in the time we were there. For what it costs to stay there ($1,281 for a little over a month after good sam discount), you would think they could afford to fix things, which makes us think they just don’t care. The rv park wifi was completely unusable, because it dropped every minute or two. The park was very noisy, being right next to the highway. Water quality is very hard which stained our shower floor and walls. No late checkout was permitted even though they were not busy when we checked out. We will not stay here again.

Good location / clean
The staff was amazing and very accommodating - we were running on a tight schedule and they agreed to stay after hours to attend to us. They were so personal and easily to talk with. As stated - the sites were tight and provided no real scenery - but they were quiet, safe, clean - and best of all - great location. The public shower like being at home - amazing! Nice pet walking area. If you’re looking for more “state park” feel - this is not for you!

Good Spot for an overnighter
This is an RV park, but I used a tent. Ground is very rocky, but was able to stake it fairly easily. This site is very close to the town, like a quick 5 minute drive. Road is very accessible as well, you won't have any troubles getting to this site unless your suspension is held together by duck tape. Toilet was as clean as a camp toilet can be! My only real negative is that there were a lot of people and pets around that were making noise, but it wasn't that bad. Oh, and there is absolutely no shade at all.

This is the worst place we have ever stayed. Dirty and gross. No grass in pet areas just compacted dirt. Game amenities were filthy. Ran out of water during the night. We knick named the park KOA Compton.

Welcoming and quiet
We called on our way east from Boise an hour before they closed and they were super pleasant. We were able to grab a 30amp spot since it was hot outside and we had our pets. It was very affordable for power only ($20 in 7/21) and they were apologetic that they didn’t have a full service hookup for us.

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!
Guide to Filer
Pet friendly camping near Filer, Idaho extends beyond typical RV parks into free dispersed options along the Snake River Canyon. This agricultural area sits at approximately 3,800 feet elevation in south-central Idaho's Magic Valley, where summer temperatures can reach 90°F while winters drop below freezing. Spring runoff significantly affects water features like Shoshone Falls, with flow rates peaking in May and diminishing by mid-summer.
What to do
Wildlife viewing along waterways: Balanced Rock County Park's canyon setting supports diverse bird species. "The stream is pretty, loaded with suckers, and at night an otter or similar animal, whatever idaho has, lives there," shares Sadie P. about Balanced Rock County Park.
Kayaking on the Snake River: Located near hot springs, multiple water recreation options await. "We went kayaking for two hours and there were so many beautiful birds," notes Annabeth S. about the paddling opportunities at Banbury Hot Springs Campground.
Hiking to geological features: Explore unique rock formations within a short distance of camping areas. "Short drive or walk to the actual balanced rock. Picnic tables, awning, restrooms and even a horseshoe pit available," explains Mary D. about trails near Balanced Rock County Park.
Visit Blue Heart Springs: Accessible only by water, this hidden gem features crystal-clear waters. "Another hidden gem that we paddled to was Blue Heart Springs. It was a hidden cove with crystal blue water coming from the depths of the lake," shares Ed E. about paddling from Banbury Hot Springs.
Wine tasting by kayak: Combine paddling with vineyard visits for a unique experience. "We kayaked down stream to the Thousand Springs Bed and Breakfast Winery where we did some wine tasting and bought a few bottles, which we took back to camp," reports Ed E.
What campers like
Free camping with facilities: Multiple free camping options exist with basic amenities. "There are 13 individual campsites with tables and fire rings. They filled up most nights but emptied out during the day," reports Kelda C. about Snake River Canyons Park - Rickett's RV Camp.
Affordability near attractions: Reasonable rates make this area budget-friendly. "This campground drops you down to river level so you hardly know your in the big city. With the river running through and huge grass area it is beautiful. Also compared to other campgrounds it is very cheap," writes Mike M. about Rock Creek RV Park.
Privacy within canyon settings: Natural canyon walls create secluded environments. "An absolutely beautiful canyon creek side campground. Water and bathroom available. Campsites have covered picnic table and fire rings," describes Jessica C. about the setting at Balanced Rock County Park.
Proximity to town services: Campsites balance nature with convenience to urban amenities. "Just a few miles outside of Twin Falls and somewhat near the river supposedly, there are several designated back in and a couple of pull-through campsites with picnic tables and fire pits," notes Steve M. about the location of Snake River Canyons Park.
What you should know
Seasonal considerations for bugs and snakes: Timing affects comfort levels significantly. "Seasons go like this; pleasant, snake city, bugs galore, cold as my heart. Good luck timing those," warns Sadie P. about Balanced Rock's seasonal challenges.
Site selection impacts temperature: Canyon locations create microclimates. "So far below the cliffs that you get cooler air than up top, plenty of light all day but direct sun for about four hours," explains Sadie P.
