      Mountain Home RV Park

      Very nice and organized park

      They greet you when you arrive and show you to your spot. All spots are paved with nice grass strip. Dog parks in two different areas. There are plenty of trees to keep the rv shaded. Walking distance to Walmart.

      Mountain Home RV Park

      Great RV park

      Nice grass for dogs to roll in, excellent bathrooms and showers, horseshoes, pool, dog park. Decent distance between shady sites. Second time staying here for 1 night while traveling.

      Swan Falls - Idaho Power

      Not terrible

      A little bit misleading in the description. There are some established camp spots and then there is some “dispersed” camping. In reality the dispersed camping is more like established camping on BLM land.
      It can be a little bit confusing when you arrive but you take a right turn away from the welcome sign. You’ll travel by a boat launch on your left and some construction type equipment on your right as you travel down a dirt road. The mile or so is the established camping in Idaho Power property. It’ll be on your left as your drive. About 2ish miles in you’ll see a beat up sign marking the beginning of BLM land. After that there are turnouts for the “dispersed” camping. There are permanent fire pits and even some pit toilets so not exactly dispersed in the overland sense, but more like camping in the 80’s if you are old enough to remember that.
      You won’t need a 4WD rig. A front wheel drive sedan can do this drive, but the road is bumpy. It was dry when I went to maybe if it’s muddy it would be more treacherous.
      All in not a terrible camping spot. You’re right on the river and the bugs are too.
      Remember, kids, only trash leaves trash and don’t be the weirdos “out in nature” with your Bluetooth speaker blaring music.

      Hi-Valley RV Park

      Excellent and quiet

      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!

      Ambassador RV Resort

      Great for Telecommute and Streaming

      I was here alone with my two dogs during the heatwave of June 2021 (104°+). The dogs and I didn't leave the RV much due to the heat. But we were parked next to the pool, it's small and busy late afternoon early evening. The little dog park was nice although we only used it a couple times since one of my dogs does not always get along well with other dogs.

      5G and 2G wifi were excellent. Towers throughout property for access points. Never a week signal. I was able to telecommute and stream without any issues and never used my Hotspot or cell data.

      I would have given 5 stars except for closeness of RVs, it's difficult to reserve a site, and because of the heat and my dogs, I didn't use any of the amenities or visit any destination.

      I do prefer dispersed RV sites, however this site came through in a pinch for the heat wave.

      Boise-Meridian KOA

      Way too close to be comfortable

      This is an urban rv part. The sites are packed in very tightly so they can squeeze in as many people as possible. Shower and bathroom were ok. There is a pool, hot tub and small dog park. Not much else to do here. We stayed one night on our was to Craters of the Moon Np.

      Mountain Home RV Park

      Greenery in the desert

      Very nice well maintained rv park. Lots of spaces but fills up fast. Original spots have very nice green grass with mature trees. New area is coming along great, nice grass with growing trees. Lots of activities here, pool, children s play area, dog park, basketball court, gym and nice laundry room. Showers and restrooms very clean.

      Mountain Home RV Park

      Nicest RV Park I've Ever Been To

      I've been a full-timer for several years now and have stayed in many parks. This is by far the cleanest, nicest park I have ever seen. The sites are wide, spacious and clean. Lush green grass and shady mature trees at every site. All concrete pads. Private bathrooms with showers! The dog park is stunning. The roads are paved and there's not a single piece of gravel in sight! You really have to see this place to believe it. It's like a little neighborhood!

      Boise Riverside RV Park

      Nothing special

      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.


    Guide to Kuna

    The Snake River Canyon region surrounding Kuna sits at approximately 2,700 feet elevation with dramatic basalt cliffs and sagebrush steppe terrain. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 95°F from June through August, while winter camping faces potential freezing conditions. Most pet-friendly campgrounds in this area provide either seasonal or year-round access with varying levels of amenities.

    What to do

    Riverside hiking access: At Celebration Park, campers can explore several historic sites along designated trails. "There's an excellent hiking trail leading to Halverson Lake not far in, forming a 3.9-mile loop. For a more extensive hike, follow the river trail to discover old stone mini huts—some are intact enough to enter, while others are just rubble, yet they're all intriguing to explore," notes Norm F.

    Fishing opportunities: The Snake River provides multiple access points for anglers, particularly at Swan Falls - Idaho Power. According to Ed E., "We were able to launch our kayaks for fishing and paddling for a couple of days. Fishing was awesome. I caught quite a few smallies, but they were on the smaller side. Still fun to catch."

    Wildlife viewing: Celebration Park borders the Birds of Prey sanctuary where visitors can observe various raptor species. "You will awaken to the sound of the ducks and geese and can watch hawks and ravens soar on the winds rushing through the gorge," explains Christine, noting the park's proximity to prime wildlife observation areas.

    What campers like

    Urban convenience: Ambassador RV Resort provides services that simplify extended stays. According to Jeff & Steff's Excellent Adventure, "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."

    Night sky viewing: Many campsites offer minimal light pollution for astronomy enthusiasts. Christine highlights this at Celebration Park: "Excellent place for stargazing, but avoid the sites closest to the visitor center where the lights interfere with perfect darkness."

    Water access: Several dog-friendly campgrounds near Kuna feature waterfront campsites. "We got a spot right by the water. It was a quiet Wednesday in September. Bugs were still very active. Definitely would stay here again for a quick overnight," writes Allison B. about Swan Falls.

    What you should know

    Seasonal heat considerations: Summer temperatures in the Kuna area frequently reach dangerous levels. When staying at Abundant Life RV Park, Kevin D. notes: "The park is situated in a heavily industrial area. Even so, the park is mostly surprisingly quiet. Plenty of outdoor activities in the area. The Snake River is about 30 minutes away with lots of BLM around the river."

    Water restrictions: Not all campgrounds provide full water access. At Swan Falls, Christopher P. cautions: "You won't need a 4WD rig. A front wheel drive sedan can do this drive, but the road is bumpy. It was dry when I went to maybe if it's muddy it would be more treacherous. All in not a terrible camping spot. You're right on the river and the bugs are too."

    Site availability: Most non-reservation campgrounds fill quickly during peak seasons. "This small RV park is open to active or retired military personnel only. 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," reports Amy S. about Military Park Idaho NG Gowen Field.

    Tips for camping with families

    Educational opportunities: Combine camping with learning experiences at Mountain View RV Park. "We stayed here during treefort and were quite pleased. Sites are paved and quite level! Minutes to downtown Boise. Super cheap and easy to Uber or Bike into town and back," explains Brodie D., highlighting the accessibility to urban educational resources.

    Playground access: Some campgrounds offer dedicated children's areas. Heather N. mentions at Abundant Life RV Park: "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."

    Heat management: During summer months, prepare for extreme daytime temperatures. Mark S. advises: "Because there is no shade at all, sitting outside on the patio & tiny table is pointless. 98% of the people stay inside. We had to run the AC all day, but there was pretty much always a really nice breeze."

    Tips from RVers

    Noise considerations: Boise Riverside RV Park provides access to urban amenities but with some noise trade-offs. "Easy access to central Boise in a park-like setting along the greenbelt path. We rode bikes along the path, enjoyed the river, toured Boise state and downtown, and even ate dinner without ever getting in our car," reports todd.

    Connectivity options: Cell service varies significantly between pet-friendly campgrounds. Kevin D. shares about Abundant Life: "Cell service (AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile) is pretty bad at most of this park. There is a very busy local highway (Business I-84) and Interstate (the actual I-84) close by so the cell towers can't keep up. The park's WiFi is steadily improving."

    Pull-through availability: Many parks accommodate larger rigs with dedicated sites. Charlene P. notes about Ambassador RV Resort: "Easy access to the park from Hwy. Fast check-in and huge pull throughs."
