"Biking, hiking, walking along the Boise River. There is also some great fishing on the Boise River. This location is centered for city goers, snow skiers, white water rafters and anglers."
"Feels like a little oasis tucked in behind the fairground and baseball stadium. The green belt and river run right by it. Super friendly staff. Variety of site types."
"While exploring southeastern Idaho we were looking at some extreme temps coming our way and wanted the luxury of electric hookups for AC."
"Great spot right in Boise city limits, but right next to the airport and highway. Facilities are very nice and staff is very friendly. Only issue was the road noise."
"The location is near the the central part of Meridian, there is no open land, rivers or other natural attractions within walking distance. "
"This KOA is located close to everything you need in the Meridian Boise area. The sites are pretty close, and the wifi is not great. Those are my only reasons for the 4 star."
"This RV park is home to some super nice Idaho people. Lots of long term tenants, lots of nice open social spaces. Just a friendly place to be. Everything you need is here, pool, market, open space!"
"Very well kept park, close to Boise and other surrounding towns. Close to each other is the only downfall if you like privacy."
"Sites felt pretty tight next to the “neighbors”."
$42 / night
"The sites are a bit narrow, with sites A, B, and C having trees placed immediately behind the RV. Sites A and B are setup such that you have good parking right in front of the rig/trailer."
"I do not fall in this category so I could not go in but it is near my house so I drove around the base to see if it was visible from the road. "
$20 - $40 / night
"The view of the River is nice, but the noise and outside distractions are not my cup of tea. But it's close to town, so there's that...."
"And it is very very close to Boise within 20 miles from Airport, so you can virtually forgot all the camping equipment b/c you can buy / rent them quickly as it is so close to big city"
"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."
"Easy access to the park easy from Hwy. Fast check-in and huge pull throughs"
"I drive a cargo van and it shook everything to the point where I didn’t want to do 30 minutes of it."
"Parked our tow behind camper right on the beach. It is very muddy so don’t get too close to the shore, we had to help two vehicles get out of the mud. Also very buggy which is why is lost a star"
GuideHad a great weekend - the site was roughly 20 yards from the river so it was perfect. All the sites are kept clean (gravel) and have vault toilets throughout. First impression when you pull in? It looks bare and small but, the farther you drive in, the more appealing it becomes.
Only glitch in the weekend was an impromptu concert put on by a lady next to us. High pitched with what sounded like singing in tongues. But I guess each to their own…
GuideThe scenery is gorgeous, but getting a hold of the camp host, good luck. I tried two different numbers and nothing. We even sat around for an hour just waiting for someone. There were like 4 or 5 rv's, but not a single person in site. It has a huge grass area, that when you walk through it you can tell it was a field at one point. There are also good size kind of deep whole all through the grass. There is also two softball fields that are pretty small. It also has a play ground by each field. A bunch of picnic tables. I seen two brick like BBQ station, a horse shoe set up, one fire pit spot. It does have a bathroom, men's acme women's. When you walk in it seems to be decent. The first stall door does not latch closed, the second stall doors but you have to kind of mess with it a little bit. Then you have the shower stall. It's not very wide at all. Pretty dark so it could use better lighting. The first Sexton of it has a wooden table that you can set your stuff down on. After you wipe off all of the spider webs. Then the shower part is a small square that has a curtain. It you ever decide to use the show make sure to wear sandles. Who knows what's bn on the floor. I know that concrete can't rust, but it looks really brown and black. The water pressure isn't all that great. The website says that it's $5 a night, but when you get there it says way different. So it is misleading. It is pretty quite until the farmers and semi drivers are out driving around and working. It says they are supposed to have wifi, not sure about that.
GuideThere is a large grassy area for tents, it also has an inside heated swimming pool with personal hot tubs that are also in private rooms. The staff is friendly and the scenery is gorgeous. You got to come check it out
GuideThis is a beautiful place to camp, extended stay, or even live. It use to be way cheaper. The bathrooms have showers and are well kept, it also a building to do your laundry.
GuideGreat spot to stop for a night or two. The town people are friendly. Great place for kids with the play ground. It has automatic sprinklers in the grass so it's best to put up your tent in the gravel. It has bathrooms with showers. I would recommend to where sandles. While taking a shower
ScoutI'm very polite up front. Nice individuals bend over backwards to help you. Even though they didn't have any spots available, they're more helpful, very kind
RangerI love this area so very much. It’s next to the river, with little beaches. We are near 4 natural hot springs!! Yes there is a road next to the campsite, but we are down a little slope. If you want to be away from that move up higher. Maybe 10/15 cars a day. It’s gravel. The dust from the road doesn’t hit us. Rangers are so nice. Don’t over stay your 14days. This is a perfect group spot with 4 different fire pits and sites
GuideI really can't add much more about this place except that I felt relaxed, enjoyed the grass, shade, views and staff friendliness. The other reviews provide all the plusses I would have stated. I added some pictures that hadn't been shared yet.
GuideWhile staying at another Homedale-local RV park, I found this park while exploring the town. There weren't any reviews, so I thought I'd help out and at least provide some basic information. There are about 10 pull-through sites and a couple back-in sites. All of them have water and 30/50 service. There's a dump station on site for a donation of $5. The site fee is signed as $25/night; it seems that self-registering is the only way, as it also appears to be on a first-come basis. There is a single building with restroom/shower for men & women. Not especially clean though. No laundry, but I saw a laundromat in town. The entire park is gravel, no shade. There's a public road along the river, between the river and Park. It also appears that the riverfront and boat launch are public, and not under any control of the park itself. The City park next door is a gem! Not much shade, but the grass is green and inviting. While I was there, I saw someone throwing Frisbee into baskets mounted on posts throughout the park. Next to the park is the (presumably) high school football/track stadium. I imagine the entire area, from the riverfront, the RV park, stadium and parking lots are all City-owned. I didn't see any camp host, manager or maintenance person, but there were two rigs on site that hadn't moved in a while. If it's City owned, a possibility for questions and issues might be City Hall, in town (3-minute drive from park).
