      Twin Falls 93 RV Park

      Clean and nice

      Clean but small bathroom, nice dog park close to highway but not to bad

      Oregon 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.

      Twin Falls-Jerome KOA

      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.

      Twin Falls 93 RV Park

      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.

      Village of Trees RV Resort

      Convenient, Clean, and Friendly

      Pulled in for a quick overnight stop on a road trip. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Campground and facilities are very well maintained. Clean bathrooms and showers. Access to the Snake River. Pet friendly with poop bag stations throughout the grounds. Food delivery to your site from the onsite restaurant. Will definitely be back.

      Oregon Trail Campground

      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!

      Jerome / Twin Falls KOA

      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.

      Snake River Canyons Park - Rickett's RV Camp

      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.

      Trail Break RV Park & Campground

      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.

    Guide to Jerome

    Camping options near Jerome, Idaho range from full-service RV parks to free dispersed sites within a 20-mile radius. The area sits at approximately 3,800 feet elevation in south-central Idaho's high desert climate, where summer temperatures regularly exceed 90°F between June and September. Winter camping requires preparation for below-freezing nights, especially December through February when overnight lows typically drop to 20-30°F.

    What to do

    Visit Shoshone Falls: Located about 15 minutes from Jerome, these falls provide excellent outdoor recreation. "Very easily accessible location with a few pull through spots and back in spots. All with fire rings & a picnic table. 2 vault toilets available and trash cans," notes a camper at Snake River Canyons Park - Rickett's RV Camp.

    Kayak on the Snake River: The area offers water activities with multiple access points. A visitor at Banbury Hot Springs Campground shares: "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. We also paddled to Thousand Springs to see the waterfalls coming down."

    Soak in thermal waters: The region features several hot springs facilities within driving distance. "The hot springs pool was huge my kids had a lot of fun. The staff was very nice," reports a camper who stayed at Banbury Hot Springs Campground.

    What campers like

    Budget-friendly options: Several locations offer affordable camping without sacrificing amenities. At Twin Falls County Fairgrounds, a reviewer appreciated the value: "Cheap, cheap and cheap. Did I mention cheap? Because we'd usually rather be boondocking, we're all about cheap when we actually have to pay for a campsite... Spaces with amenities cost $21.20, tax included per night, or $106 for a week."

    Convenient locations: Many sites provide easy access to town services. "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 a visitor about Rock Creek RV Park.

    Clean facilities: Campers consistently note well-maintained grounds. At Ricketts RV Camp, a reviewer states: "Clean vault toilets, roads pretty well maintained. Large sites with table and fire ring and quite. Sites are free."

    What you should know

    Weather conditions: The high desert climate means extreme temperature variations. "Showed up late October around 6. It's quiet, just out of town and there are toilets places I guess (didn't use) and a fire pit by my site. Didn't use either. Cold (34° last night) rainy, super windy, but felt safe and free is great," reported a Snake River Canyons Park camper.

    Water access considerations: Bring adequate water when visiting dispersed sites during summer months. At Cauldron Linn BLM Dispersed, visitors warn: "Beautiful and peaceful, right on the river's edge. Lots to explore. No amenities so be prepared for that... If you come in August, bring something for the flies (they're pretty bad)."

    Reservation requirements: Some campgrounds are first-come, first-served only. "Very easy access. 13 sites. A couple of pull thrus. Mostly back in. Over-size and equestrian area with a horse corral. 5 day stay. Clean vault toilets. No water. Security checks nightly," notes a reviewer at Ricketts RV Camp.

    Tips for camping with families

    Dog-friendly activities: For pet-friendly camping near Jerome, Idaho, many sites welcome four-legged companions. A visitor at Twin Falls-Jerome KOA shared: "This is probably one of the fanciest camping sites I've ever been too. Definitely not as 'in nature' as I'm used to but still a really cool experience. I paid 38 for one night for me and my 2 dogs."

    Recreation options: Multiple campgrounds provide activities for children. "We really have enjoyed staying here. Kids love all the games mini golf, gaga ball and toys. We enjoyed the wildlife and hearing and seeing a huge owl outside our camp was a great touch," mentions a family staying at Twin Falls-Jerome KOA.

    Bathroom facilities: Family-friendly sites often offer clean restrooms and showers. At Twin Falls County Fairgrounds, a camper appreciated "The nicest feature are the bathrooms. Private 'suites' with toilet, sink and shower. Not brand new but well maintained."

    Tips from RVers

    Site leveling: Some locations require additional equipment for RVs. When staying at Banbury Hot Springs Campground, a camper noted: "Midweek RV stay in April was quiet and relaxing. Not all stalls are RV friendly, my friend had to move due to her trailer would not level. Park hosts extremely nice to work with."

    Hookup positioning: Utility connections may have unusual configurations. At Twin Falls County Fairgrounds, a reviewer pointed out: "Hookups for water, electric and sewer are located behind your RV. While the site itself is level, that makes it uphill for the sewer run so we wish that they had chosen a more traditional layout."

    Dump station access: Not all locations with RV camping provide on-site dump stations. "No water or dump. Limit to 7 days free camping. Very quiet at night," explains a Ricketts RV Camp visitor, highlighting the importance of planning for waste management when choosing pet-friendly camping near Jerome.
