    Teton Corners has been a favorite fishing and stayover spot for generations, and we felt we should step up and adopt it since we didn't want to see it developed, ripped apart or closed off. Know that by staying here, you are helping preserve this small piece of natural beauty in Idaho. It may not be the biggest preserve, but you have to start somewhere. Come stay a night!

    Learn more about this land:

    Come to our riverside getaway at Teton Corners. This 3 acre peninsula into the Teton River provides amazing trout fishing right from your tent door (licenses issued just 1 mile down the road). This gorgeous nature area is minutes from town, with easy access to HWY20 and HWY33. Deer, moose, bald eagles and osprey frequent the area year round, as well as beaver, waterfowl and night owls. RV dumps right down the road, as well as a 27 hole golf course, if that's your thing. Or just relax, dip your feet in the Teton River and listen to the water pass by.

    Note: River levels fluctuate over the season. We've tried to take pictures of all water seasons for reference.

    Thaidaho Victor is one single 'RESERVATION ONLY' car/truck/bicycle/motorcycle glamping spot for non-smokers. No RV's or trailers are allowed, and we have no dump or hookup. This glamping spot is intended for one or two people who are car/truck/moto/bicycle camping.

    There is a small dry sleeping cabin with one full size bed (for one or two people), a dorm-sized refrigerator, coffee maker, hair dryer, fan and space heater. Drinking water and towels are provided. There is an outdoor hot-water shower & flush toilet, a fire pit, picnic table, propane grill and parking for one vehicle or two bikes. There is one separate bicycle camping spot, so at times the outdoor shower & toilet will be shared with one or two other people. The site is pretty, private and has unobstructed views of the Big Hole Mountains, yet is located next to the Town of Victor with it's many restaurants, bars and stores.

    Teton Valley is just 25 miles from Jackson Hole, Wyoming and Grand Teton National Park, and just 1.5 hours from Yellowstone National Park. Just 12 miles away is Grand Targhee Resort, with their biking, trails and music festivals in the summer.

    Targhee National Forest Warm River Campground

    Warm River (which isn't very warm)

    Camping on the banks on the banks of the Warm River, which actually is quite cold, can’t get much better than this! There are several options here- tent camping in a tent only walk in area along the river banks and under some pretty good hammocking trees (best sites are #12, 13, 16, and 8 because they have some space from neighbors and are right on the river); RV sites with what looks like at least electric hook ups (best sites for river views and/or privacy are #2, 4, 6, 19); from what neighbors say is pretty good fishing; and an awesome alternative to camping at Mesa Falls if that campground is full. Walk down the road and cross the river to check out a protected area of the river where the fish are HUGE and you can stand with your toes in the river while you feed them bits of bread. The sites all have the usual picnic tables and firepits, with nice level tent pads, clean vault toilets, and firewood for sale from the campground host. The only two downsides are no showers and the campground is wedged between the road and the river, so there is quite a bit of road noise in the day which fortunately dies down once dark sets in. At that point the river covers the road noise (also helpful in the morning). The campground is close to a lot of hiking trails, but there are no trailheads in the campground (so I guess that makes three bummers). All in all, a cool place to camp.

    Great Spot

    The camp spots are well maintained and its easy to get to. The road in is very winding but is completely paved now.

    Seems like it’s more established for trailer camping but we did tent camping and it was great. I would camp here again.

    Cramped Campground

    This campground was cramped and all the tent sites are practically on top of each other. We also had a bad run (three days) of loud neighbors that made is unbearable and forced us to leave the campground.

    Nice and quiet, great amenities

    We've stayed here twice in the same tent site because we loved it. Very fun wood park for the kids, and the lake access is included in the camping reservation. Our site had running water and a nearby creek. Great place!

    Good Location

    We liked the location because it’s between Driggs and Victor so it’s not too far from markets or gas stations. Pretty good for tent camping, but not many places for the Ambulance to park. Rough roads when we went and that was at the beginning of May so they might have laid down gravel after.

    Fly fishing outfitter and campground in one

    In Swan Valley the name of the game is fly fishing. This small campground is also a fly fishing outfitter and shop. While l was just passing through and I am not a fisherwoman, it seemed to offer pretty good services if that is your thing. I pulled in after hours but fortunately the owner’s dog alerted her to my presence and she was willing to open the office to rent me a tent site for the evening. There are 3ish tent sites(one was being worked on), about a half dozen pull thru RV sites, and 3 or 4 cabins for rent. There is a central bathhouse with two full bathrooms in a trailer for everyone to share. The bathhouse rooms are electronically accessed with codes the host gives you on check in. They were really nice and clean, like bathrooms in a typical modern home, except that one had the water heater tank in it and both had space heaters on the floor to plug in(fire hazard??). The tent site I chose was at the back of the campground so I didn’t have much highway noise, and fell asleep to the sound of the nearby horses grazing. Next door on the other side is a municipal building that appears to be the home base for the sheriff. The view of the back of the office/fly shop is not very picturesque, with boats and atv’s and odds and ends laying about. There are nice trees providing shade, but there is no real privacy between sites, tents, or cabins. The grass was quite lush, so I am wondering when the sprinkler system comes on. This place works as a layover or for someone who will take advantage of the fly fishing services, but not much else.

    Nice and Quaint

    Very nice and quaint campground. Smaller tent sites and large double tent or trailer sites. Right on the river, good for fishing. Very clean, even the pit toilet bathroom was clean. Nearby to hot springs, off roading/short hikes/mountain or dirt biking trails and areas. Only $5/night with your National Parks Pass. Dog friendly and awesome fire pits (clean and not warped racks for grilling) We will definitely be back.

    Box Canyon Campground

    Beautiful and private

    This campground is a small, quiet, no reservation campground with single and double sites. Overlooks the beautiful snake river with hiking path. Bear boxes, level tent sites, picnic tables and water. No electricity. Tall pines.

    We hiked down to the hydroelectric dam where the buffalo river joins the snake river. Picturesque! The only drawback is that strangely, the sound of the hydroelectric plant becomes louder at night.

    Would stay there again.

    A perfect campground

    Me and my wife were looking to get away for a weekend and this place was just what we needed. We Tent Camp and we had people RV camp on either side of us and never heard them the whole time. The area is very woodsy and very pretty. The campsite was very developed and taken care of. The bathrooms were extremely Nice !!! They didn’t even smell bad ! Lol. We took a walk around the camp grounds and we saw many others do the same. We stayed at campsite 005. At all the campsites there was fire pits and big picnic tables. This is a spot we highly recommend.

    Great Stay!

    Despite hole in the ground toilets, they were some of the most immaculately kept ones I’ve ever witnessed in my young life. Cinnamon is the last smell I expected to encounter. Check in was a little confusing, but you choose a site and pay at the front with an envelope. I’d recommend bringing cash, small bills for exact payment. Also have your bug spray ready because mosquitoes were large and abundant (not the campsites fault, of course). Very dark and quiet at night, with beautiful starry night view. Tent sites were $17/night, with $8 additional per each extra car. Great value!

    Targhee National Forest Warm River Campground

    Great location

    I stumbled across this campground while driving Mesa Falls scenic by-way. This campground has 27 sites, both tent, RV and a group site right along the Warm River. It also has a day use area. This campground had new vaulted toilets but no showers. Within the campground was the trailhead for The railroad grade trail (great for mountain biking) which I was told use to take train passenger to Yellowstone’s old faithful. Tubing was very popular and the campers next to us insisted that we borrow their tubes so we could try it out for ourselves, very refreshing during our hot August stay.

    I snagged the last tent site #21 across the bridge in the northern half of the campground. This large secluded tent site up on the hill had a very small tent pad, fire pit and picnic table and enough room to put up my hammock. This site is next to two double sites. Unfortunately during the 5 nights I stayed some of the RVers close to us ran their generators beyond the 10pm curfew and one RVer felt the need to pull out his noisy leaf blower and blow leafs and dirt everywhere.

    There is tons of things to see and do in the area, Mesa Falls, Island Park… but the hidden gem is the close proximity (less than 25 miles) to Yellowstone National Park - Bechler Ranger Station. Bechler Ranger Station is in the far SW corner of Yellowstone National Park. This area has more streams, creeks, lakes and waterfalls than any other area in Yellowstone. There is a historic Soldier Station there that is about 100 years old and there are lots of hiking trails to beautiful waterfalls. You can see cave falls right from the parking lots. I would definitely return to this campground next time I am in the area.

    Ririe Reservoir Dump Station

    Great Place to Camp...minus the sprinklers

    Unfortunately it was raining the whole night we showed up. However there was a covered pavilion, with a fridge, and 2 walls. We were able to stay dry under the pavilion and cook our food on the stove we bought. We were tent camping which offers plenty of picnic tables and nice green grass. There are plenty of areas from for RV camping along with hookups. There's also a boat ramp.

    Now the bad, as we were getting ready to go to bed, the sprinklers came on. Thankfully we had springbar tents that were able to take the rain as well as the sprinklers. We tried waking the camp host to turn them off. Didn't work. We just waited it out and we were fine.

    The campsite firepits, and pavillions with fridges, basketball courts, a boat doc, and bathrooms (clean, with no nasty smell, and hand blower dryers).

    Small basic campground

    This campground was quaint and small. The hosts were amazing and the pit toilets were the cleanest I have ever seen! We were redirected to this campground from Teton canyon due to aggressive bear activity and we were traveling with a soft side pop up trailer.
    The site was further from the Tetons and mountains than we wanted. The sites were outside a reservoir directly on the river. There is an upper area closer to the road with electric and water. But it was basically a big parking lot for rvs. Down below We snagged a great site tucked between huge trees. It had a fire pit, picnic table, level tent site as well as an oversized parking spot that was easy to level the trailer.

    Lower Rock Creek FR305 Dispersed

    Dispersed camping on road to Cave Falls

    Free. Coordinates: 44.09981,-111.17306. Camped here on Sept 21, 2024. Set back and above busy Forest Road 582 which heads toward Cave Falls; no issues with dust from forest road. Site is also referred to as Lower Creek Road Campground. Large site, should easily accommodate 3 rigs. A few spots are level. Up on a small hill above Rock Creek. Can't see the creek, but you can hear it. Dirt surface. Tent camping possible. Surrounded by tall trees, but open sky above. Site has a bear box and a rock fire ring. There is also an old lean-to near the fire ring. The access track is pot-holed; may be muddy. No hiking trails. No T-Mobile nor AT&T cell service. It's a nice site; nothing special. Good for a quiet overnight stay if visiting Cave Falls.

    Cascade Canyon Patrol Cabin

    Cascade Canyon North Fork Camping Zone (not a cabin)

    This is a back country site that requires advance reservation. Use of bear canisters is required for all back country travel, you can check them out when you pick up your permit at the ranger station. DO NOT hang food here. No open fires. This was night 2 of a 4 day loop. Please use only very clean camping and be very bear aware. The moraine is beautiful, water flowing everywhere in late July (filter your water) and so so many wildflowers. Tent sites are established, flat and outlined, one bear box is located in very thick overgrowth and difficult to open but usable. We saw black tailed deer near the waterfall, and one ran through camp in the night, no sleeping after that. 

    Heaven on Earth. Lake Solitude is just up the trail from here.

    We spent 2 nights here in between trips to Yellowstone and Tetons due to winter road closures. Great spot to hang out outside of Rexburg. Each site has a fire ring and plenty of privacy. Toilets are operating and clean. Right on the banks of the slough and there’s even a resident moose!

    Had to search Google instead of Dyrt app to find this place, and I'm glad I did. The management was so friendly and gave us really good tips on where to go and what to do around there. Right across the freeway from Bear World (super fun for kids and adults), 20 minutes from Heise (hi-see) Hot Springs, and Rexburg Rapids water park. Worth more than it costs.

    Most beautiful RV campground near Rexburg

    We just discovered this campground because we drove by it. I have no idea why it never comes up when you do a Google search for campgrounds near Rexburg. We are so glad we found it. It's by far the most beautiful RV campground in the whole area. Each spot has a concrete pad, a fire ring and a picnic table. It has water and electric but no sewer or dump station. However, Lakeside RV a block away has a dump station for $5 and there is a Sinclair nearby that also has a dump station for $5 and they refill propane tanks and I hear they have the best prices around. It's 10 minutes south of Rexburg. You can stay as long as you want but you can only book for 6 nights in a row in one spot. Then you can book another 6 nights at a different spot. We stayed for 11 nights. They have pit toilets that are surprisingly clean and don't smell, but no shower or laundry. We stayed in sites 8 and 12 and both were wonderful with shade trees and a beautiful view. I loved waking up in the morning to see a beautiful lake out my bedroom window. The lake is actually an aquafer (underground spring) so it's super clear and clean unlike most lakes. One side of the lake has a beach and my kids and I swam in the lake and they especially loved the big slide in the middle of the lake. We floated with tubes and noodles. They have kayaks and paddleboats to rent for $15 an hour. There is a walking path around the campground and a lovely little river that travels alongside the walking path. Each year in September they have Buddies Not Bullies event on the beach. We happened to be her for the event. They had lots of old cars and cool cars and you can vote on your favorites. My boys loved the burnout contest. They had music, a free bounce house for kids, food trucks, free HotWheels for kids, and the radio station was here.  My kids thought it was fun. The campground closes for the winter in October but they leave the walking trail open. $30 a night was cheaper than any other place around and this campground is far more beautiful than any other one in the area. Definitely will be back.

    Hidden Gem

    Juniper is an excellent campground located on the Ririe reservoir and recreation area . The campground consists of 3 loops all have large level sites with platforms for tents and full hookups at only $30.00. The entire area is dotted with huge junipers that offer good cover and seclusion. The fishing at “Blacktail is good for Rainbows and perch - highly recommended. The area is out in the middle of nowhere and was only 1/4 full . A great spot to reach Idaho Falls or the Grand Tetons , and Jackson Wy .

    USFS Teton Canyon Campground

    Excellent National Forest Campground

    Very well maintained campground. Stayed here for a few nights in mid-Sept 2024; no fees - end of summer season. Summer time fee is $17. Mix of pull-thru and back-in sites. Some sites are in the open; others are set back into thick forest. Campground accommodates tent campers, hammock campers, van campers, car campers, truck campers. One camper managed get his big travel trailer into a campsite. Large sites, good spacing between them. Clean vault toilets in different parts of the campground. Water was still turned on during our stay. Usually has a host, but not during my stay. Campsites are level on a gravel surface with a newish table, metal fire ring and a tent pad. Area is popular with hikers. Good trails from the campground. No T-Mobile nor AT&T cell service. The forest road accessing the campground is in good shape; access is from the Idaho side of the Tetons. Stayed in site #2 with a campervan; pull-thru site with a tent pad. A lush forest was directly behind this site. Loved camping here. Look forward to returning.

    The Park At Swan Valley

    Peacful spot with a great vibe

    **Note: my stay was in 2022, new to this app and wanted to give some love to places I've been and deserve it**

    Stayed here at the end of a long road trip through Montana, Yellowstone, Jackson, and Idaho. After a long day of seeing sights in GTNP and Jackson, it was great to find a nice, quite, camp spot that was reserved and had basic amenities rather than trying to find dispersed camping somewhere.

    It was early season and still a bit chilly at night, and while I was totally comfortable in my roof top tent, the owner was kind and concerned, and invited me to hang out and/or even sleep in the on-site trailer home if I got too cold. Such a kind offer.

    Good stop off

    Riverside Park Campground, Irwin, Idaho

    In Caribou-Targhee NF/Palisades Wilderness near Bridger- Teton NF. This is a first come , no reservation campground, at the foot of Palisades Dam on Snake River. We arrived around 2 pm and the sites were mostly empty. Several others arrived around 6 pm. This is a good campground for fishermen/women, the lower sites are right on the river. There is a boat ramp right across the road. There is paddle information near the boat ramp also. The only electric sites are on the upper half. The rest are basic sites. All have fire pits, picnic tables and a multi purpose metal platform. Gravel/dirt pads that are level. There are several pit toilets and dumpsters throughout . No trails , but there are several trailheads nearby. Other then fishing there is not much else to do at this campground, however it would be a good starting off point for hiking adventures. You can not leave your camper/tent overnight, unattended.

There is a boat ramp right across the road. There is paddle information near the boat ramp also. The only electric sites are on the upper half. The rest are basic sites. All have fire pits, picnic tables and a multi purpose metal platform. Gravel/dirt pads that are level. There are several pit toilets and dumpsters throughout . No trails , but there are several trailheads nearby. Other then fishing there is not much else to do at this campground, however it would be a good starting off point for hiking adventures. You can not leave your camper/tent overnight, unattended.

    Perfect little campground

    We just needed an overnight stay as we headed up to Yellowstone. We pulled in at 2am, not sure what we were in for. Set up our tent trailer and we’re so pleasantly surprised when we woke up the next morning to such a beautiful camp ground! We have thought about this campground and tend to judge other campgrounds based on this. Clean, perfect spots for tents. Pristine!

    Nice little spot

    Stayed at a tent spot. Campground was clean and maintained. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because it is near the Highway and you can hear the road noise.
