Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Garden Valley, ID

The only thing I can say is it would be nice if there was more room between RVs. Other than that, excellent facilities, crew, pool, spa, off leash dog park, laundry, showers, garbage pick up(wow right!), Good power, good water pressure, stores nearby, just a great stop!

Glorified parking lot. Sewer connection isn’t threaded, instead they provide you with a rock to place on top of your line so it doesn’t blow out everywhere. Pets are allowed but the only grassy area in the whole park dogs aren’t allowed in. The entire front of the dumpsters had broken glass scattered all over the ground mixed in with the dirt and rocks. And my last complaint BEES!Hornets and wasps were surrounding our outdoor area. The laundry building was clean and maintained. Overall it worked for the 3 nights we stayed but I wouldn’t want to stay longer.

No need for a hotel in Ketchum Idaho. Park and camp here! Several dispersed sites after the Sawtooth National Forest boundary, with creek running by and a hot spring down the road.

The recent burn made the site a little dusty, our dogs needed a towel off.

We stayed here because it was convenient to the freeway. They gave us a site near the dog walk so our dog could use it. It is right in the city so you have traffic noise. If you are looking for a cannabis shop there are 2 visible from the RV park!

They have a club house with games, a pickle ball court and a basketball court.Family friendly.

I needed a place to stay to visit family. It is conveniently located. Spaces all had strips of grass on either side, and nice shade trees. Bathrooms were very nice and very clean. Laundry was cheap to do. Lots of folks with dogs, I like that. But no dog poop on the grounds. I had full hookups for a Saturday and Sunday. Site 12. Nice pull through. I would stay here again. Justin was very friendly and offered help for anything I might need.

We stayed one night. Check in was easy. All spots are easy parking. Park for kids, dog area, propane refills. Clubhouse with really nice showers.

Good camping close to Town, mountain biking, restaurants, and lake. Be cautious about lake conditions before swimming or letting dogs swim. We had a skunk walk right through or camp!

We stayed at the Ambassador RV Resort in Caldwell, Idaho in July and September 2021. This is one of the nicest, cleanest, well-maintained parks we have stayed at. This RV resort is a short drive off I84 and when you pull through the front gate, you become immediately aware that you are in for a great stay. The park is impeccably maintained. Huge pull-thru sites on level river rock pads. Directly beside the rock pad is a wide concrete patio area followed by another wide grassy area. Tons of room to set-up and relax outside. The pool, hot tub, and steam room are centrally located and are clean and inviting. The office and maintenance staff are top notch. You can even drop your garbage bag at the back of your camper in the morning and they pick it up and dump it for you. If you need propane, they will pick up your tank and bring it back to you. The resort also has the nicest gated dog run area we have ever seen. The WiFi worked great and they have cable. It was an absolute joy to stay here and we went back a second time this summer because we enjoyed it so much! For videos of the resort, visit our YouTube channel: Jeff & Steff’s Excellent Adventure.

Clean, leveled, friendly, only 1/4 mile to their downtown. Friendly and helpful staff, showers, toilets, beach area for swimming WITH lounge chairs, swimming right in front, volleyball court, dog walking trails, fire pits, horse shoe play area, etc! Only wish I was able to do laundry but coming back again! Oh and the best part, great fishing under the bridge!

Beautiful place to boondock overlooking the river. Great scenery. Many trails around both for hiking and four wheeling. Loved it except for one thing - there's a shooting range near the highway and the airport. Guns going off random times all day and into the evening. Ruins the tranquility. We have a dog too that freaks out. Love this place except for that. We won't be coming back unfortunately.

What a beautiful campground with the views of the lake and mountains. Our site was perfect for our 23’ travel trailer and well maintained. While we did not have cell service at the campground (Verizon), the short drive to Stanley provided that when needed. There is constant traffic from site seekers and continual dusting because of it. Our only complaint was campers not following the leash rules for their dogs or stopping them from being aggressive towards us on the trails.

Small campsite with well-spaced sites. Pretty good Verizon signal. Close to the road but not noisy. Close to Idaho City, which has awesome little spots. Shady, no morning sun. The real treasure is the nearby hot springs resort, The Springs at Idaho City. This is not a big kiddie swimming pool, rather it is a lovely, serene spot and by far one of the nicest in Idaho. They even serve IPA poolside!

This is beyond the Payette River campground, if you follow the South Fork road down a ways, you will see a few turn outs, likely with several filled. This is US Forestry or BLM or both land. You’ll hear echos of gunfire, the occasional semi blasting up the highway or the rumble of tons of bikes making their way up the highway... and if its fire season, there will be helicopters coming in and filling giant buckets of water as there is a Ranger station and water reserve near by. It is a surreal view and area. Dispersed, no amenities, nothing but you, the dirt, rocks, tall pines and little critters. The chipmunks like to tease dogs, but they also taste amazing fried up with some potatoes. There are huge fish in the river below and the water is unbelievably clear, albeit 40ft down from the camp sites in most areas. There are some markers in a few of the areas identifying the land and the forest rangers like to come out and make sure you dont have a campfire. People get possessive over these spots, even though it is public land. Seems a few of these campers have setup and been there a while.
Regardless, it is stunning and perfect!

Very clean well manicured campground next to the little salmon river 9 miles south of Riggins Idaho in Pollack, ID.
We have stayed here two times on our way to Grangeville and the owners are helpful and the store is well stocked with supplies and local Idaho wines. sites are gravel with nicely maintained grass between. Sites have water and electric with a central dump station near the park exit. Cools at night and the sound of the river next to the park makes for a good nights sleep. Tents are permitted in individual sites. Will stay here again.

This is a great spot to camp if your hunting or just want a close place to town to camp it is located off hwy 11 outside of pierce idaho

This is pretty much a parking lot behind a gas station near the Idaho/Oregon border.
