Best RV Parks & Resorts near Pocatello, ID

We stayed here for 4 days/3 nights in October.   The location is directly across the street from the hot spring pools.   Our spot #6 was on the river.  We walked across the street to the hot spring pools and a park where in the summer you can tube the river.  At the back of the RV park is a trail you can walk along the  river and will come to a place where you can enter the river right into a hot spring.   The small 15 space campground is right on main street and you can walk to a large number of sites, restaurants, shops, historic museum and buildings and a small market.  All the spaces are full hook up and have a concrete patio pad and trees for shade.   If you need to charge solar the space in front of each spot has full sun.  There is also a path near the hot springs pools that follows the river and is paved.

Nice Location right along the Portneuf River with very easy acess to the hot springs thanks to a cool suspension bridge!  The campsites are very well shaded and there are options for RV hookups.

This spot for mostly RVs was a no thrills place for people who want to spend most of their time out of the campground or hanging out in their RVs.  The site is set up with full RV hookups around the perimeter of a large gravel parking lot area.  There is more RV sites a little higher up and further east.

There also looked like they had small apartments for rent for the day kind of like an Airbnb.  We weren'table to see the insides of these apartments but they were unfinished on the outside.  There are hotsprings all around Lava and there are plenty of restaurants and small touristy shops along the main street

Full hook ups and a pretty creek to walk the dog along. Even have washrooms and laundry.

Grounds look older, but maintained. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We were placed in a pull-in with a 40’ class A that wasn’t large enough. Only had 30amp hook up. Manager got us moved to a full hook-up with plenty of room. WIFI works, Verizon coverage is good.

This is for RV parking with electrical hookups for 20 bucks at the airport. 18 hookups and awesome dog park. Also a bike ride away from a very nice park on the lake with lots of play space for kids during the day. No toilets or showers but a simple stay and there is Wal-Mart everything else you need right in town. Blackfoot Wal-Mart does not allow overnight parking. There is water hookup during season. Also free dump station at fire station.

Easy getaway as we're from Pocatello. It was hot, but we had a great time. The camp hosts were very helpful and super friendly. Bathrooms and showers were close and clean. Lots to do with the visitor center, hiking trails, the Snake River, and historical sites like Register Rock and Oregon Trail sites. We had a camp trailer. Water and electrical hookups were great and the dump station is fairly close. We'd come back again when it's not so hot.

This is a safe spot for overnight. Nice views of mountains. There is highway noise. Camper trailers can manueuver without difficulty. TMobile works here.

They certainly have all the amenities including showers, a pool, hot tub and playground. It was nice having these amenities after several days without. However the sites did not have much space between them, and we saw several questionable and possibly drunk people walking through the rv park. Not a place I would go for a relaxing time camping.

We had planned to stay 2 nights at the Snake River RV Park, but it was very crowded and the sites were too close together. We had reservations, but still ended up in an overflow area, with a huge sink hole which we almost backed into. The site was next to the playground, and kids were out till after 10 pm. We left after one night.

This is an older campground, and space near reservoirs is a hot commodity. The RV park host was very friendly and accommodating. Very clean campground with a nice boat dock and plenty of spaces to get down near the reservoir and fish.

Warning - Some of the spaces felt like extremely close quarters especially with slide outs. The picture below shows one of the older full utility locations. Some units may not have much room to slide out without contacting the utility boxes. Some units offer great shade and an awning next to a shared fire pit, shared picnic table. Some units have a really nice shared grass area between trailers. Also several people here are seasonal campers with monthly rates. This can make finding a space a little more challenging. Call ahead and make sure to get reservations so you can get a spot.

Lot size seems inconsistent between spaces as some feel very cramped and some of the high number units without utilities had larger spaces between them, almost appearing as an extra space between two units people were using for pet/kid play areas.

Dogs are to be kept on leashes, but people should consider short leashes/tie lines as it is easy for pets to cross into adjacent units depending upon where they are staked. Make sure to plan ahead for power adapters. Only one 30amp service so if your planning to run AC, plan to be the first in or coordinate with your neighbor.

Beautiful campground set high up in the Caribou National Forest. The campground is around 13 miles up a mountain from Pocatello- it took us roughly 30 minutes driving up curvy mountain roads to get up to the top. Be advised, our gps tried to route us off a dirt road half way up, but you just stay on the paved road all the way up. We got site 20, I’m not sure which loop, as the loops were kind of hard to determine. It was next to bathrooms and across from water and a group campsite which looked like it’d be awesome if you were in a group (site 19.) Beautiful in the pines and furs. You can’t see from the road but many of the tent pads are behind the tables and fire rings. The tent pads aren’t huge- Our tent pad wasn’t big enough for our 6 person REI tent so we pitched right behind our car on the parking pad, which was considerably larger. We were only staying for one night on a Thursday and it was very quiet with only a handful of other campers, but I saw reserve tags on most camp sites in our loop for the weekend. No showers, vault toilets. Drinking water. We tent camp so I didn’t see if there were any electric sites, ours was not. We saw cows, moose, birds and deer on the mountain. Wish we could have stayed an extra night to hike around the area.

This is a surprise off the 84 in Idaho so if you are looking for a campground off the main freeway this is it it's got a dump station it's got rv camping tent camping it is got a great history and it's got a section of the original organ trail that you can check out and if you're into birding definitely a place to go and you can fish the river upstairs that go down to it and it's just got Frisbee golf course as well so I definitely recommend it

Great staff, very welcoming and helpful. Loved the full hookups. Loved the environment with seeing all the kids playing around and having fun. Just a few short minutes from downtown. Only complaint is all the cotton falling over everywhere from the cottonwood trees. I know they can’t help that but just thought I’d share. Also sites are kind of on top of each other but we had such friendly neighbors that we didn’t mind at all. Very family friendly would definitely come back!

This place has easy access for when you're rolling into the town late at night and without a reservation.  The RV spots are a little easier to get so if you want a motel room during the summer be sure to reserve ahead of time.  There are over a dozen RV sites and 8 fairly newly renovated fully furnished motel rooms.

The rooms are fairly cheap but give them a call as the owners have recently changed within the last month.  Nearby there are more hot springs than you could visit in a day!  Portneuf Canyon and River to the north holds great trout fishing if you're looking for something else to do!
