Best Campgrounds near Kimberly, ID

Great spot to park for the night. We have stayed here 3 times as it is in route from Washington to Colorado. No frills nice park with a large creek running through. Pit toilets and clean park nice walking trails along the river creek.

Beautiful little area by the lake with some nice views of the mountain. The grounds are a little uneven at certain points with gopher holes, but every site has a nice fire pit and picnic area. Bathrooms are outhouses so not the best, but not horrible. Very low-key vibes here which we love. Only one other group camping here besides us. :)

The campground was quiet and clean, many sites right on the lake. There is not much privacy, but there weren’t many people there when we were so jt was nice. There are lots of what I believe to be honey locus pods on the ground that were tough to keep our dog from eating.

There was also what appeared to be some sort of weed killer sprayed on the weeds in the road, which was annoying to make sure the dog stayed away from.

Really nice sunset over the lake.

Made a reservation a couple hours ahead of time. Kind of wish they had informed me prior to making it that they had no WiFi. Had to call the after hours number for the WiFi password to be told it’s currently out. I feel like it would have been courteous to know this ahead of time since it’s advertised that WiFi is available.

The hot springs are great. I asked if I could use a camp sight for the nigh, I told them I am self contained with a great heater. I was not allowed to stay there. So I just parked down the road.

So the spot at the end where my pics are is awesome, but that’s it.

This is a park that allows camping. It’s not a place you feel comfortable driving off and leaving your stuff out. The toilet is dark, no light, so filthy, and a real loooong walk from the last site, you’ll want to drive it.

The grass areas are nice, but camping there is weekends only. The stream is pretty, loaded with suckers, and at night an otter or similar animal, whatever idaho has, lives there, I wouldn’t swim in it. There are lots of birds an owls in the cliffs.

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.

It’s funny I had friends near the front. The way the sun travels they would be cold in the morning wearing coats while I was basking. In the evening i was sipping tea by the fire and they were seeking shade.

If you stay in that best spot be prepared as it’s the trail access and you have to let people come through. Idahoans are nice though so it’s not a problem

Details: Tables everywhere Trash and toilet available Water spigots available but conflicting reports on their safety Twin falls is a 25 minute country drive away Balanced rock is right around the corner Seasons go like this; pleasant, snake city, bugs galore, cold as my heart. Good luck timing those Free, staycation days limited to 7 on my visit but a local said it might change. Wear gloves but take a visual in the trash cans after any weekend parties, especially if you have kids. I took a visit to the cop shop and the pawn shop after i looked, just sayin

Stayed three nights in mid-October. Got real cold at night, but having electric made it bearable. Not to far from Twin Falls and all it has to offer. Much less expensive than parks closer to town.

Friendly, lots of shade very clean restrooms with showers. They have a laundry facility pool and park right on the river. Also, laundry facilities. Located next to the philip s66 off the I84 so a bit of traffic noise

This place is beautiful! We arrived on a Monday morning around 9am. Before driving down the hill we got out and walked it to make sure we could make it. We’re driving a one ton GMC with Artic Fox truck camper. We made it down no problem. We stayed for 2 nights and only one night was there another camper who decided to stay up high and not make the drive down. We few cars came and went. But what surprised me the most, is that nobody who drove down, went to see the waterfall which is probably the best part! So, if you visit, find a trail anywhere to the right of the Cauldron Linn sign and follow it. There are many and most of them lead to the waterfalls eventually. My husband was nervous about the drive out but we made it out with no issues!

Would definitely recommend this spot. 21$ dry and I think 40 full. Nice big grass areas with a few trees. Probably really hot in summer but we were there in fall. Careful of the sprinklers they come on early. Nice big clean showers/bathrooms( family style).

Absolutely overrun with flies.

In the summer when the area is busier I think we would have love this more. Happy we were able to find free camping in this area. It’s a recreation area, so when we arrived we saw some in the distance fishing and another person bike riding. We were the only ones camping, and there was some unknown activities of others who came and went that we were unsure of. We would have felt better if someone else was camping somewhere. Nothing happened though and it was a cool spot. Definitely think when other campers are around this would be a great spot!

Very quiet near river.
