  Three Island Crossing State Park Campground

  Nice cabin, but not much to do after 5 pm and too expensive

  We knew it would be hot when we visited this campground, so sprang ($55) for one of the few cabins with air conditioning. It was clean, small, and just fine. But there wasn't too much to do after 5 pm when the visitor center closed. No playground we could find, and the water isn't safe to swim in. Once the visitor center opened up in the morning though, that was an absolute gem. Would probably stay here again but just get a regular camp site. The cabin wasn't really worth it.

  Trail Break RV Park & Campground

  Listen to the sounds of highway cars and trains all night

  We originally planned to camp at Three Island state park, based on the positive Dyrt reviews, but when we arrived there, the posted fee for sites was $34, which we found too expensive for our mere purpose of sleeping and then hitting the road again. We remembered a sign on the way to the park that read "Camping - RV + Tents. Less $$$ than state park." So we figured, heck, let's just go there. We read quickly online that the prices for tent sites are $15. Perfect! We arrive at 11pm, which yes, it's late, BUT the office sign was blinking "OPEN." So we thought no problem. We ring the camp host. He sounds grumpy but arrives a couple minutes later. He is definitely grumpy. He tells me they do accept credit card and it will be $25. I ask for clarification given the listed price online. He says "New policy as of 6 days ago. I'm sick of people arriving late at all hours." Fair enough...but turn off the "Open" sign. I agree to pay it, we're exhausted at this point, and at least the campground has showers.

  Some pros: very close to highway

  Some cons: very close to the highway and a train track.

  The tenting experience: we listening all night to the sound of bug zappers, hourly train whistles, and speeding cars. See the video for reference. The tent sites were flat at least. A basic grill but no picnic table provided. It is probably convenient to have the wifi and laundry on-site, but we wouldn't know because we left as soon as we could after a near sleepless night.

  Trail Break RV Park & Campground

  Clean, simple and decent priced sites

  Tent sites and rv sites available!

  Tent sites are on a nice large green patch of grass. Park right next to your tent.

  The bathrooms are locked for paying campers only and have a sink, shower and toilet. Very clean and nice.

  There is also a locked washroom for paying campers to use as well.

  The owners live on site and are very friendly and are happy to help with questions!

  Very decently priced when all you need is somewhere to set up your tent for the night and get up and go in the morning. Would also be great for staying longer!

  Located in the town of Glenn’s ferry but still far enough away from public so you don’t feel like you’re camping in town.

  Restuarants, gas stations and a few convenience stores within a 10 minute drive of the campground.

  Interesting history is available to see close to the campground as well. Learn about the Oregon trail!

  Trail Break RV Park & Campground

  Clean, well-maintained and easy to reach from the freeway

  The owners are super friendly and onsite. The campground spots are spacious, well maintained and there is a large open grass area. Leashed pets are welcome and mine loves the grass.

  The camp spots have fire rings.

  I get a tent spot for my rooftop tent and they have flushing toilets, showers, kitchen and laundry onsite.

  Well worth the $15 rate!

  CJ Strike Area - Cottonwood Park

  Cottonwood Camp

  Not for the faint of heart in July without a generator. Woke up at 8am this morning and it's already 90 out. Decent sized spots. Right by the lake. Could be advertised as a weight loss spa because of the heat wave. But we're having fun regardless since the sand dunes are just a couple miles down the road.

  Trinity View Resort

  Out in the middle of NOWHERE

  Fort Running Bear RV Park, Idaho

  If you like the middle of nowhere, you will like Fort Running Bear RV Park. It is approximately 32 miles to the middle of nowhere, the last three are on a dirt road. You are driving through scrub country with no trees and hills in the distance. Then you see a copse of trees in the distance. That is where you end up. This is an older campground, private and family run. There is a shower house attached to the swimming pool and a laundry room. The sites have room around them for tents, bikes, etc; a covered picnic table , most have shade and fire rings. There are full hookup sites and basic sites. When we visited the wind was wiping through the area. The owners are personable and friendly, the campground is well maintained. The shower house ...clean and a little old. This would be a nice place to spend a quiet weekend or time with the family. It would not make sense to use this campground for a base camp due to the distance from anywhere.

  Trinity View Resort

  Nice little RV/camp spot for the family

  We spend two days this July. Staff was friendly and informative. Don’t forget a mask if your going during Covid times. (Office requires it). Facilities are clean and nice. The small pool was great for the kiddos. We tent camped and where lucky to get the pick of the spots. The tent area has two covered areas with power. While we where there they’re where about. 7 tents with probably room for about 4 more. The group fire pit is also large and nice. One family in our group brought their RV and had a nice spot and hooks up where all working. We are considered locals so we didn’t make the trek the Anderson reservoir since we know all about it but if your not local make the short drive to enjoy some boating or swimming. The put put course want not available since it was getting worked on but was getting a overhaul so next time should be great. They have a community building but it was closed due to CoVid19. All in all it was a great weekend and spot.

  Three Island Crossing State Park Campground

  Beautiful and Historically Significantl

  We were about I hour early and the really nice person at the gate welcomed us and directed us to the Day Use area to wait. Wow! We were blown away. It was a large, lush, green, tree shaded area by the Snake River. There is also a new, really nice, Visitors Center with a film and displays about the significance of Three Island Crossing to the pioneers on the Oregon Trail.

  We stayed in the lower loop. It was as beautiful as the day use area. In the center of the loop is a very large common area with 2 1arge picnic pavilions. The large restroom was dated, but clean. The showers were closed for lack of staff to clean. The upper and lower loop have their own 2 way, dual dump stations. AT&T service was good.

  Did I mention, there is a trail to the winery next door? Really good wine, full bar and restaurant. Tlhere is also a golf course at the winery. We will definitely be back. We definitely recommend.

  Boise Riverside RV Park

  Friendly convenient stay by the river

  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. Excellent laundry and shower facilities open 24/7.
