Best Campgrounds near Nampa, ID

Sunny Ridge is okay, I guess, but the heat, no shade, the FLIES, FLIES AND MORE FLIES, are really wearing on my patience. It's good for those that are gone most of the day, like hunting or exploring. It’s also right off Hwy 95, right off the highway, my spot about 50’ away. It’s loud. There’s some shade provided to a few sites, but I’m not in one of those. Shade sites are few: 3, 4, 11, 12, 13, 14 and maybe 15, sites 2 and 10 are partial shade. There’s some green grass/weeds, but the site I’m in is dirt with some brown scrub. It’s dusty and muddy when it gets wet. The town is too small to support a grocery store but the convenience and small hardware stores have some basics. I paid$45 for a miniature hack saw and three ¾” x 3’ pieces of pvc pipe to fix my trailer pantry shelves. This entire area is geared, right now, for hunters; antelope season just opened and I’m sure deer and other game seasons will also open soon. Internet works well, no issues. T-Mobile works great. Restrooms/showers are fine but dated. Restroom/shower only allow for one at a time. Laundry room has two sets of W/Ds, but only one set is operational. Quail abound here, fun to watch. Full hookups, but the spot where I was (#40) only had a 50A connection. My 50A-30A converter fixed it quickly.

I thought I'd give this place a try, even though there were no reviews. From the pics on the website, it seemed like worth a chance. I called using the number on The Dyrt, but it wasn't a working number. I got on the campground website, found a different number to call (they don't take reservations online) and it was answered by a machine which directed me to use their email to send them an 'ask,' showing my interest in staying there. They were supposed to respond with an application for me to complete and send back in, for their approval. It's been two days and I haven't received a response from them. Lots of hoops to park for a few nights! Good luck to anyone else who tries.

Website photos don’t match the actual property. The main RV sites are just inside the entrance, close together in a U shape. Electric was fine and there is a community potable hose to fill up upon arrival. Behind there are a bunch of tent sites in the trees which were occupied by drunk partygoers all weekend. Needless to say quiet time wasn’t a thing. No bugs and temperatures were in the 80s so pleasant. The owner was nice to chat with… Was it worth 35/night, plus extra for cars to come visit during the day? Hmmmmm There are only so many campgrounds with hookups in the area so they have the market cornered.

Also, you can hear the theater nearby at night - that was fun!

We're permanent residents here because we love this place! The staff are wonderful, friendly, and work hard to keep this place as lovely as it is. In the clubhouse you can play pool, watch tv, swim in the pool or lounge in the jacuzzi. There's also a wonderful kitchen where you can reserve the room for a get-together-an island to prepare, plenty of frig space and lots of tables set up in a 1950's theme!   You can hear the speedway from where we live, and you can hear a train off in the distance.  We love that community feeling we have here, and can afford the price. Cheers to KOA! May you stay just as you are!   Oh yeah, there are plenty of places for one-nighters so they can enjoy all the nearby amenities- So many restaurants and burger joints, and other businesses right nearby!

This is a nice place. Not too expensive, close to town, traffic noise isn't bad, great staff and host. It's clean, newer amenities include some limited food items, ice, BBQs, dog area, propane, pool table, tennis court (or whatever ball you want to use for this size net), 1/2-court basketball, volleyball. They even have the balls to use (don't know about tennis or other similar-size balls though).

Large, wide spaces, many pull throughs. I can fit my truck next to my travel trailer. Asphalt drives and stall sites. Showers/restrooms are clean, so is the laundry area, all with newer equipment. Each shower/water closet is its own small room, hooks, bench, ADA accessible, sink, just like your own restroom. Laundry is $2 wash, $2 dry, quarters.
