Showed up late October around 6. It’s quiet, just out of town and there are toilets places I guess (didn’t use) and a fire pit by my site. Didn’t use either. Cold (34* last night) rainy, super windy, but felt safe and free is great 😊
Ranger
Paid$15/night for a site right by the Snake River,#13. Pit toilets and trashcans. Sites have picnic tables and fire rings and are spaced out fairly well. Quiet. Houses are visible on the opposite side of the river. ------>>Don't go in the east entrance due to 11ft bridge over the road.

This place is beautiful! We arrived on a Monday morning around 9am. Before driving down the hill we got out and walked it to make sure we could make it. We’re driving a one ton GMC with Artic Fox truck camper. We made it down no problem. We stayed for 2 nights and only one night was there another camper who decided to stay up high and not make the drive down. We few cars came and went. But what surprised me the most, is that nobody who drove down, went to see the waterfall which is probably the best part! So, if you visit, find a trail anywhere to the right of the Cauldron Linn sign and follow it. There are many and most of them lead to the waterfalls eventually. My husband was nervous about the drive out but we made it out with no issues!

Would definitely recommend this spot. 21$ dry and I think 40 full. Nice big grass areas with a few trees. Probably really hot in summer but we were there in fall. Careful of the sprinklers they come on early. Nice big clean showers/bathrooms( family style).
Traveler
Absolutely overrun with flies.
ScoutIn the summer when the area is busier I think we would have love this more. Happy we were able to find free camping in this area. It’s a recreation area, so when we arrived we saw some in the distance fishing and another person bike riding. We were the only ones camping, and there was some unknown activities of others who came and went that we were unsure of. We would have felt better if someone else was camping somewhere. Nothing happened though and it was a cool spot. Definitely think when other campers are around this would be a great spot!
ScoutThere is a picnic table, fire pit, and pit toilet. T-mobile service had a few bars.
GuideIt’s hard to believe this place is free. Nicer than some National Forest campgrounds with the same amenities. Pit toilets and that’s it. The toilets were clean and the one by our site even had a light on! It was a quiet stay and convenient to see Shoshone Falls, and resupply at Costco or Walmart just to the north in Jerome. Don’t skip the scenic overlooks at the bridge on highway 93, beautiful views, and we even watched a couple base jumpers there
LegendFairly quiet with occassional car racing by. Very close to city of twin falls. Has vault restrooms and firepits at the sites.
LegendUncrowded. Fire pits and bbq. Clean and well stocked Pit toilets. Lots of space between sites. Lake front. Fish jumping. Few bugs. Quiet. Bright lights on the dam. Full LTE service
Scout
A nice place to stay for the night. The owner was very helpful and easygoing. We enjoyed our dinner under the pines and watched the sunset.
ScoutBeautiful camp site super easy to access, we got by fine without 4WD. Unfortunately people have kind of trashed some of the sites there was broken glass and lots of other litter
Scout
The campground was very nice. The only negative is the ground and grass areas are pitted with holes from gophers. If tent camping bring a good ground cover to put tent on
TravelerNice layout, large spots, friendly people, useful signage about the surrounding area, and two clean well maintained pit toilets (one even had a night light). This spot is wonderfully close to town, feels very safe and convenient. Highly recommend this spot to anyone passing through!
TravelerThis is a very beautiful area to camp out in. Not far off the river with places to drive right up to the edge of the water (with the right vehicle). Wildlife was very active; lots of mosquitoes and bats at night. Dirt road leading to the area has some pretty rough spots and some washboarding, but it’s all doable. The road that actually takes you down into the canyon has a steep sharp downhill turn with large rocks, depressions, and soft silt. I managed to get down in my Ford Transit Connect (pretty sketchy), but I had to try a couple times before I could make it back up and out the next day. So BE AWARE: gravity can probably help you down without getting stuck, but remember that you will have to get back up, and if your vehicle is 2wd and particularly heavy or low or is bad with hills, it may not be a breeze. (Maybe I’m just being dramatic though lol) I probably won’t risk it again, the stress was too much for my poor nerves.
ScoutIt is literally hidden out in the hay and corn fields. The road down into the canyon is ok for small trailers, vans, trucks. The water was out so the bank was a dusty desert and at the waters edge was a thick swampy mess with gross stinky mud foam…. So swimming was out of the question. We found a pull in area under a cluster of trees that was perfectly serene. Will definitely go back. Large black beetles are bad there and bugs as expected. Nothing to cause a big issue, we brought a bug zapper and net enclosed canopy!
Guide
Easy access on a gravel road, open field with 5 stone firepits. Relatively hard to find a level spot, but not terrible. No shade, very open area - it’s also open grazing land so you may have some cattle visitors. Stayed midweek in August and was alone the entire time.
Outhouses available in the park about 5-10 min drive away if you need them.
ScoutWonderful place for free camping, even better than some dirt but with 20bucks over....
Guide
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.
TravelerBeautiful spots and surrounding area. We sadly had to turn around because of a sketchy looking encampment. We did report to BLM so hopefully this spot will be more approachable in the future!
GuideWe camped in the Trout loop and had a great time here. Got here on a Friday afternoon and there were only a few spots left, so I’d recommend going earlier if you can.
We landed a spot right on the water (Snake River). The river here is calm enough to paddle board on. We spent lots of time on the water and even paddled across to some rocks and did a little cliff jumping (they aren’t too high).
There’s an outhouse and it was honestly the cleanest outhouse I’ve ever used. Super impressed with that.
It was warm this time of year and our spot was nice and shady. Would definitely recommend visiting. It’s $15/night
GuidePulled up here last minute at about 2am for some quick sleep, the view I woke up to was incredible. Drive through pretty farmland to get there, easy to navigate.
TravelerTent camped here in site 6. Felt safe the entire night and the campground featured bathrooms, which was a plus. Definitely targeted more towards RVs and camper style set-ups, but good night regardless minus some weather and wind!
GuideWe were really excited to stay here. The water and area is beautiful. There are 2 great shady spots right on the water. Unfortunately it looks like 2 guys are living down there and let’s say they don’t look like the friendliest for a couple of reasons. My boyfriend and I immediately got a bad vibe and decided it was best not to stay.
ScoutSnake River Canyons Park- Rickett's RV Camp offers a peaceful and convenient location for an overnight stay. The campsites are mostly clean and equipped with fire rings and picnic tables. While the area is quite dry, it provides a safe and hassle-free experience. Nothing fancy. The Sherrif did a drive through at dusk(a feature I like) and the camp filled up before the sun had set. The availability of basic amenities such as pit toilets and horse corrals adds to the convenience of the site. If you're looking for a quick overnight stay this is a great spot that is pretty much a free campsite complete with a site host.
ScoutBasic BLM land, dispersed camping about 2mi outside the City of Rocks on the Bread Loaves side, perfect for rock climbers. At least 3 rock fire pits spaced out for several different groups with plenty of room and flat areas for tents. Appears to be a similar area on the other side of the road too
RangerAwesome sites!! Had a blast with some people I met , I stayed at the first site at the top because I’m 2w drive sedan, but I think it COULD be achieved if needed. Would recommend 4wd to the bottom; but this is a beautiful place, there’s some waterfalls to check out and the views are great, not a lot of privacy, pack in pack out.
