We stayed a week in July, and the green trees in the pictures are all dead skeletons now with no shade at all. There is a constant smell of a combination of septic and farm compost. The one advantage was an onsite parts store and repair shop.
This is a great campground We parked at site 7 We would stay there again and next time spend an extra day or two, riding the bikes through the loop
This is a fee based campground with a host that offers a first come first serve camping experience. We got in late in the day and were happy to find a spot. The ground was a bit limited for tent camping but we ended with a great location near moving water. The sound of water created a very serene environment for rest. The real treat came when we saw the beauty of the night sky unencumbered by city lights; the Milky Way was on full display.
I was excited to pull in, but didn’t feel safe. This is a pretty good-sized area and lots of cars and rvs. I drove through and saw several open spaces, but I didn’t feel great about the neighbors. I have nothing to back this up, but my gut. I pulled into one of the few shady spots to camp overnight and leave in the morning. But, I decided to move on after about 20 minutes. You can hear a creek from the site and tons of bugs that come with water.
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.
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 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.
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.
Close to freeway - definite road noise. If your site is near dump station you will have a strong sewer smell. Wifi unreliable.
Murdock campground has been lovely. There are 11 spots each with a picnic table, partial shade, and fire ring. There are two pit toilets and drinking water that is ice cold coming out of the tap. The camp hosts have been absolutely wonderful. The only downside is that the air quality is pretty bad due to fires in the surrounding areas.
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.
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.
We stopped here during a road trip and it was a good choice. This is a pretty standard KOA experience.
Good:
Okay:
We arrived late and left early. Tent sites are all grass, with plenty of space. Lots of activities.
Thank you Elon for Starlink else I could not stay here. Zut Verizon or Cricket ( cricket sometime showed 1 bar but not usable)
Great campground, friendly staff. No hookups but potable water available.
The National Monument is so different. The stark, barren countryside is so rugged it’s beautiful
Not that many big rig sites, so pity it’s only fcfs, especially as it is so remote.
Loved the visit
Did not use facilities so cannot comment on them
$$$$. If you do not have a pass ( like, America the Beautiful which you can apparently buy onsite ) there will be a daily access fee.
This was a great free spot. Even had a great camp host. She came over to see if we needed help when we pulled in. We found an open spot for our solar but there were also shady spots.
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.
Standard profit maximized government campground with some unique sites. Super clean bathrooms, easy self pay, accessible sites and a lot of walking and driving activities available. Will definitely feel crowded when full. Sat/sun night at the end of oct was maybe 25%. Excellent stargazing
This campground sits right off of Hwy 20 along the Big Wood River. It is a dispersed campground with varying degrees of levelness and sizes. No real privacy here despite being surrounded by trees, mostly aspens which were starting to change color in September and give the place a little bit of a peaceful atmosphere. There were a few campers there with trailers when we were there that seemed to keep to themselves and only one of the trailers looked a little rundown and sketchy.
There is river access which is nice and easy. There is road noise as it sits fairly close to the highway.
There are pit toilets and a few of the “sites” have stone pits but fire restrictions are in effect so no fires at this time. There are no garbage cans or dumpsters so pack in and pack out. Also there were no water spigots that we found, so filter from the river or bring water. Overall this is a dusty fairly noisy stop good for a night. I wouldn’t make it a destination but if you’re tired of driving and need a place to crash it’s free and easily accessed.
There is a 10 day limit on camping within a 30 day period. Weak Verizon, good ATT and no TMobile cell reception.
Nice easy to get to off the Highway. Easy after hours check-in.
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.
Good spot not too far back the road. About 12 sites here. First come. Set against the side of the mountain. Simple bathroom. Nice creek running nearby. Quiet with good chance at wildlife sightings.
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!
Unlike anywhere else to camp! Amazing stars, easy access to trails and beautiful volcanic landscapes. My only complaint is the lack of privacy and sound carries a little too well so hopefully you’ll have respectful neighbors. We moved sites when more people left-Very little trees and rock piles separate each site. The facilities were super clean with flushing toilets and sinks-no showers. Water pumps throughout the sites, and a very convenient self pay station per night for the campsites.
We camped our RV here in mid September. Weather was pleasant, staffs friendly, good wifi connection. Clean grounds. No traffic noise. Close to freeway.
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.
This area is just 10 minutes south of Galena Lodge and 25 minutes north of Ketchum. We arrived on a Friday morning and had no problem finding a shaded, private site. There seemed to be a ton of options as you drive down Baker Creek (dirt road). Many have established fire pits.
