  Smoky Mountain Campground — Castle Rocks State Park

  Convenient to City of Rocks

  Close to City of Rocks and the small town of Almo. Hot springs in Almo. Small market in town which makes their own ice cream and has a little restaurant across the street but not much in the way of groceries. Couple other restaurants in town but they were not open while we were there. Also water not yet turned on in the campground so bring your own water if you are coming through early in the season. But it was quiet and we were able to explore and hike without running into many people

  Lake Walcott State Park Campground

  Well Managed State Park & Campground

  We stayed here the end of September. Our Garmin RV GPS and Google Maps had us exit earlier than exit 216 off of Interstate 84 coming from the NE. The emailed state park instructions have you get off at exit 216. Since the roads looked RV-friendly on Google Maps, we took the earlier exit. It was fine, but exit 216 would have been more of a straight shot. The RV GPS and Google Maps eventually followed the brown Walcott SP signs all the way to the campground (CG). We had a couple of interesting turns at the far side of Rupert, but no big deal. When we arrived at the CG check-in building, it was unmanned. Since we had paid online, we paid the $7 vehicle fee per day via envelope and then proceeded to the CG. As a side note, the next morning, we got a call from the park office that our tow vehicle was included in the nightly camping fee, so they gave us our envelope back. We saw a right turn to the tent and boat ramp area and decided to go straight, and as we rounded a corner, we saw the RV campsite sign and proceeded to pull through site 5 with water and electric. The site was plenty big enough for our 40’ 5th wheel and our F-450. The water and electric were in the middle of the site, which was nice. There was decent water pressure, and we had a clear shot to the north sky for Starlink; however, to the south were mature trees. This site had decent spacing between the adjacent sites. We got 2 bars on Verizon. There are two tent areas, one that’s to the first right with the day-use area and another that’s adjacent to the RV CG and cabins. Most sites here will take larger rigs, and the center and north sites will give both north and south shots for satellite. There were a couple of interesting quirks with this state park. 1) The park’s sprinkler watering times were special, with our site getting an hour's worth at 1:00 PM with five rainbird sprinkler heads. However, the grass and trees were in good shape for this desert-ish area. 2) As we have seen with COEs, there’s a dam between the lake and the river, so when they open or close the floodgates, there’s a siren that goes off until the process is completed. We had this happen our first night at 1:00 AM. In the park’s defense, they have both of these activities posted in several locations. There are a ton of areas to walk your dog, and we saw deer during our walks. There’s a dump station located as you enter the CG area. We enjoyed our stay at this well-managed state park.

  Lake Walcott State Park Campground

  Hard to beat

  It’s hard to beat a site like this in Idaho with so many amenities. It’s a very large site and the fee isn’t bad about $7 a day if I recall. I’ve mostly camped here for a group event but it’s one of the best Idaho sites I’ve been too. Just be prepared for lots of spiders in July, also this last time coming through we were struggling with chiggers

  Good for overnight stop

  A nice place to stop overnight. Spots are tight with only a few feet between push outs. There are a lot of birds nesting in the park and they were very noisy in the morning.

  Lake Walcott State Park Campground

  Enjoy the Wildlife

  Nice park with plenty of trees by the Lake Walcott reservoir on the Snake River. There’s a variety of camping areas spaced out for varying needs. The parking lot for the boat launch is spacious and can accommodate many vehicles. The deer tend to come in in the early evening hours to enjoy the park too and are not very spooked by people. Just a short distance from the park is the overflow from the low dam where you can see a variety of birds enjoying the water and the shallower rapids for fishing.  This is a quiet campground that’s away from the noise and hubbub of the cities.

  Twin Falls-Jerome KOA

  Easy check in, nice amenities

  My first KOA stop didn’t disappoint. Bathrooms were great - individual rooms with toilet and shower for excellent privacy. They all kind of smelled like cat littler which was a little strange, but otherwise they were clean and sufficient. Hookups worked great. Check-in after hours was a breeze, they left me a packet with my name and site info on it. They also provided text messaging support before and during our stay. Would stay here again. The only negative was that the sites were very close to each other, not a lot of privacy, but we were just passing through for one night. Also, this place is a haven for birds. If you hate the sound of birds chirping, you may not like this campground. I’ve never seen so many birds and bird nests! So cute.

  It’s alright

  It’s nice except for the fact it backs up to a literal junk yard. The showers are great and the staff were amazing but meh. But it’s close to the falls and you can take a drive to balanced rock.

  Not far off highway

  It is well kept and the deluxe sites have a nice BBQ, slide love seat, and fire pit. It is a bit cold to use any of them this time of year, but it is still nice.

  Friendly and Clean

  Everything worked quite well, my pool Throughs and the areas were relatively flat. We had no problems with water pressure, no problems with electricity. The only thing I would point out is that if you are on the last row, that makes you closest to the highway and you will hear the highway noise starting at about 5:30 in the morning. Otherwise, a great and friendly KOA with a very nice pool.

  Not enough restrooms, 3 o’clock check in

  Park is well kept, WiFi is good. Bathroom were new and clean but with a full park there was a wait for a bathroom in the morning. I’m giving lower rating to all parks that have a 3 Pm checkin, particularly with am 11 check out.

  Twin Falls-Jerome KOA

  Single night layover

  We stopped here during a road trip and it was a good choice. This is a pretty standard KOA experience.

  Good:

  • Easy on and off the highway. Including a convenient gas station when leaving in the morning.
  • Easy access to restaurants in Twin Falls
  • Clean campground
  • Very nice and clean bathrooms
  • Great staff who moved us to a better site even though we were just overnighting
  • Near the falls if you want to visit

  Okay:

  • As expected, the sites are a bit tight. At least in the RV section.
  • A bit of road noise from the highway and the road it’s on
  • Some cow pastures in the area, so there was occasional aroma
  • Pretty windy the night we visited

  Great camping experience!

  Excellent campground. Quiet and out of the way. Good privacy and clean and well kept facilities. It’s in an out of the way location which is one of the things we love about it but may not be everyone’s cup of tea. We very much enjoyed our stay there.

  20 minutes to Falls

  We stayed here to visit Shoshone Falls and it worked out great. Some cows to the North of the park and semi busy road to the East. Bathrooms in good shape.

  Nice State Park

  First trip to this campground and we really liked it. Price was reasonable for electricity and water. Dump station nearby. We have bigger RV so some of the spots would not work. Make sure you use the filter to eliminate those with a smaller driveway. The restrooms were clean with nice showers. This campground is 40 miles or so from the interstate so make sure you are well provisioned before you arrive.

  Great way to explore Twin Falls

  The campsite is right off the high way for super easy access. It’s a small campground with dirt roads and I thought the sites were a bit average. We stayed there overnight so it didn’t bother me. People looking for longer stays might pick somewhere else.

  KOA Tent Camping

  This is probably one of the fanciest camping sites I’ve ever been too. Definitely not as “in nature” as I’m used to but still a really cool experience. I paid 38 for one night for me and my 2 dogs. They had lots of social areas around and lots of variety between RVs, tent sites, and cabins but the tent camping sites were pretty tightly packed together. I like to sit out and read with my lanterns by the fire once the sun goes down and I ended up having to move into my tent to read because the site next to me was too bright from my lanterns and I felt bad. Other than that, they had an adorable gift shop and frozen yogurt night was happening during my visit. There are bathrooms with showers available. And a store to purchase anything and everything you may need from shampoo to firewood to food to cook as well as souvenirs. All together great experience and I would definitely camp again!

  Quiet but close quarters

  Road noise is minimal depending on where you are in the RV park. Love the amenities for everyone (playground, dog parks, pool, mini golf, etc). Full hook ups available. $45 w/KOA membership (10% off), pull-through, full hook-ups. Would stay again. Very friendly and helpful family who run it. Only downside is shared pull-throughs: Literally looking in the window of our neighbors on driver’s side. There are cabins here.

  Should be a ‘Journey’, not a ‘holiday’ KOA

  Not somewhere you want to spend too much time.  Unfortunately if you need to be near family in town that you’re visiting this is the better option.

  Safe & Many Amenities

  Stayed here on our way up to Boise. The campsite was convenient for us because it was close to the freeway. On the flip side that comes with vehicle traffic noise. There were places for both RV’s/campers and tents. The place was clean, well kept up and had tons of amenities including flushing toilets, showers, laundry, 2 playgrounds and a pool. Staff were very friendly. Not a scenic campground but was perfect for what we wanted and at a good price.

  Birds, bugs and beauty

  Primitive camping requires hauling camping goods to site. No site parking for the tent people. Rv parking is good with plenty of room. Nice little boat launch with Great Lake to play in. Fishing was good and kids loved the swimming.
