    Craters of the Moon-Arco KOA

    Fun holiday camping

    Great little campground with full hook ups, 30 or 50 Amp. Spaces for tent camping up to Class A motor homes. Several pull through spots, a few back in spots. The campground is well maintained and had friendly staff. Amenities included showers, restrooms, laundry, small store that sells firewood and propane among other necessities, ice cream social (for a donation) in the evening, free waffle breakfast in the morning, pet friendly with dog park, playground, and pool (although not super warm). Good activities in the area if you enjoy the high desert. We stayed on 4th of July weekend and even with a full park it didn't feel crowded.

    Lava Flow Campground — Craters of the Moon National Monument

    Great place to stay!!

    This campground was an great place to stay while in Lava Hotsprings. It's a two minute drive to the Hotsprings, which are amazing. The campground is clean and very well maintained. Cleanest shower houses and bathrooms we have seen at a campground in a long time! The camp hosts are friendly and the park is very pet friendly! I would highly recommend this spot if you are stopping in Lava Hotsprings for any amount of time!

    Meadows RV Park

    Close to a beautiful bike path

    If you’re looking for a simple stay, close to all, including a gorgeous bike path, this will do the trick.

    No one was there when we pulled in at 5 (they say they are open until 10), but they left a map & the park is small, so it wasn’t rocket science. It was a little tough to find the dump drain, but it’s there, and the parking situation is a little wonky at first (especially if you’re pulling in after a long drive) and may feel a little confusing. The utilities for each spot are just next to each other. Yours will have your spot number on it.

    If you’re looking for luxury, this is not the place for you. It is right off a main highway, which didn’t bother us at all but I did see some complaints on yelp about noise. The noise was not bad at all, especially with windows closed and air on. We had vents and windows open and we were fine (and I’m a light sleeper/sensitive to noise). If you want less noise, I suggest you ask for a spot on the residential side of the park.

    You’re also just next door to a residential community. Our spot sat next to someone’s backyard. No problem for us, but this my bother some.

    The spots are packed in, but we paid $5 extra for a “premium” end unit, and that worked just fine. I will agree that it’s a little pricey for what you get. Bathrooms were clean enough, could have been given a little more attention as to how the trash can and paper bits were on the floor.

    But, again, if you’re looking for a resort, go elsewhere. We give it a 4 for proximity to town, access to bike paths, and some pretty epic views.

    Honeys Park

    Great spot

    This is a great location. The owner of the property, Scar, is very generous in offering his property for free to stay at to complete strangers. This is dry camping, no water or sewer. There’s a dump station with water close by off the main highway. He does have a few outlets we saw but didn’t use them. Owner is friendly and generous. We enjoyed the nightly campfire. Read his website before arriving, all he really asks for and be respectful. Craters of the Moon is not too far. We hope to stop by again one day. Idaho is beautiful.

    Lava Flow Campground — Craters of the Moon National Monument

    The Earthside of the Moon

    This is what you would expect in the wilderness of Idaho! A unique location, and an experience worth having!

    Please obey posted fire safety warnings as Idaho is plagued by enough man made wildfires each year!

    Have fun and leave no trace!

    Craters of the Moon-Arco KOA

    Nice KOA campground

    We like staying here while traveling through Idaho. It’s a short drive to Craters of the Moon National Monument, and Arco, Idaho is a neat little town. The Showers and Laundry facilities at this park were not used by us during this visit. Staff was very friendly during the check in process. There is limited shade in the park.

    Lava Flow Campground — Craters of the Moon National Monument

    👌🏻

    This place was great! $8 because water is off for the season, I guess...normally $20. All facilities are closed so it’s just camping and exploring the park which is all within walking distance of the campground. Very friendly ranger working the front! Level sites on pavement. No fires allowed unless propane or grills. Very windy! Get a spot that has rocks on your west side to hide lol! This place was a great stop for a evening/night! Not a lot to see but what’s there is really cool! A must see if you’re passing thru Idaho down to Utah.
