Located on the mighty Snake River, Massacre Rocks State Park is rich in history and full of year-round recreation. Miles of hiking trails provide access to a bounty of plant and bird species, Oregon Trail history, and geologic wonders. Rock climbers enjoy numerous routes. A world-class disc golf course provides players with one of the most challenging courses in Idaho. A scenic picnic area surrounds Register Rock, where emigrant names are inscribed, creating a desert oasis for the modern traveler. Remnants of the Oregon Trail are seen easily from either end of the park.

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
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.
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
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.
This is our second time to Massacre Rocks. The first time was a few years ago in site 32 which is small and not very private, but we still enjoyed it. The site across the way was prime, huge pull through with a large picnic area…site 31. Everything has been great EXCEPT the sites aren’t clearly marked and we’ve had several people walk through our site at #31. Def takes away from the privacy.
The leaves were out on the trees, the water level had returned and the park was enjoyable. The staff was very helpful in getting us to our pull-thru. Had a restful night
This beautiful state park is located right off of the freeway about 7 miles outside of American Falls, Idaho. There is a little bit of road noise at the park because of the proximity to the freeway but it wasn't a bother at all. The views of the river are beautiful and the sunset was amazing. There are a lot of trails to walk on here, and since the park is pet friendly our three big dogs walked the trails with us. There is a disc golf course, although we didn't try it out. The camp host was great. The bathrooms were clean, although only half of them are open in the off season. The only draw back we could see is that the spots aren't very spacious, so if you're new at parking your rig, or if you have a really large rig, it could be a tight fit. We were in a 33 ft TT and the pull through spot (17) was plenty long, but kind of narrow. Spot has 50 and 30 amp hook ups as well as water if you camp during the summer-no water in the off season.
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.
Easy access from the hwy. clean, full service setup. You can here some hwy noise but not see it. Campsites are well-spaced and private-feeling.
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.
Very Easy to find off the freeway. We arrived after office hours but had no problem getting a spot since you can do it online and there’s a bulletin board with all the information one would need to be able to do so. The camp hosts came by and were very kind, informative and helpful. The surroundings are beautiful!
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.
Loved it here. Friends and families all gatherers here. Will be back.
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.
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
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.
Okay some nice sites, old but big pull thru well established trees price $45.00 okay. Big concert in town and no other places available.
We arrived late and left early. Tent sites are all grass, with plenty of space. Lots of activities.
We arrived at this campground just before dark without a reservation. and were lucky to get a site with a beautiful view of the snake river. Our site was complete with a picnic table, electric and water hook ups. Although we’re only here for a night, I could imagine it would be wonderful to stay several nights.
Great overnight camping spot. The noise from the highway was not a problem. The bathrooms were clean and satisfactory.
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.
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.
The restrooms are very old and not very inviting (a lot worse than most of the state parks I‘ve visited), shower door didn‘t lock, water was rarely warm and in the men‘s shower there was no light. Construction work began in the early morning, which was much noisier than the nearby railroad..
The disc golf was great and challenging. The campsite was very nice and had everything we needed.
Nice easy to get to off the Highway. Easy after hours check-in.
