Best RV Parks & Resorts near Rupert, ID

Stayed one night in early September with a 25 foot Class C.  The campground is easy to find.  There are several long-term residents and the overall vibe was friendly.  Called and got a same-day spot.  Full hook-up and W/E only sites are available.  Wireless internet is available throughout the park.  The site (51) was level and the electrical post and water spot looked new.  Quiet at night.  There are shower and laundry facilities available.  Pleasant place to spend the night.

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.

We followed our RV GPS right to Heyburn Riverside RV Park. We could see the campground (CG) as we got there and pulled right around by the camp host sites and were checked in. The very nice gentleman went over the CG’s few rules (main rule was go 5 MPH) and then escorted us to pull through site 15 with full hook ups. Both the back-in and pull throughs have cement borders so you have to be fairly precise getting in. A really nice feature for these nicely sized sites are the separate parking space for your vehicle. Utilities are placed more to the back of the space and worked fine with great water pressure so use a reducer. However, sewer is placed well back so you may need 15’ to 20’ of sewer hose and a weight as there is no screw in for your sewer connector. As our rig connection is smack dab in the middle, we had to use a 15' hose. We got 3 bars on Verizon and the same on AT&T. We also received a good amount of OTA channels with all the major networks. The CG site is across from the city park and county visitor’s center where there are very nice walking trails. We visited Shoshone Falls and several other area attractions wishing we had stayed longer than three nights.

We stopped here on our way home from a recent trip and was a good stop over point. I’m not sure what activities are possible as a destination campground but maybe water sports?

The good:

• Easy on and off from the highway
• Clean bathrooms
• Easy, pull through sites
• Very friendly staff
• They have a grill which will deliver breakfast, lunch or dinner to your site

The mixed:

• It is an RV resort laid out like a grassy parking lot
• A lot of resident campers

The bad:

• The highway was very loud from our site
• No picnic table or fire pit

We stopped her in October and  the water level was extremely low.   The boats were dry docked and could not access the marina.  We chose this campground because we wanted to visit American Falls, which we did.  The area was beautiful, but there was not enough water to create a fall.  

The campground is very peaceful with very large spaces and well kept.   We has a large grass area with a picnic table and fire pit, fires were prohibited while we were there because of the low water conditions.  Behind our space was the river/lake area that was dry.   Still the park had great views of the mountains and was very pretty.   There are many trails around for bike riding or off road vehicles.   

The sites are full hook up, there is a bath/shower house and a laundry.  The staff is very helpful.  We were a bit early and when we arrived Jason was mowing our space.  It was completed very quickly.  There are restaurants in town about 5-10 minutes away and a grocery.  Wifi was excellent on T-Mobile and Visible.

We had planned to stay here 2 nights but stayed one more. The sites are great. Spread out with lots of grass. It's right on the river with a great paved walking trail through an arboretum. Our dogs loved it. We were here in October 2020 so bathrooms were closed due to COVID and because it was off season there was no park host do no wifi code. No other amenities (which is fine, we didn't need anything). The cost was very affordable with good Sam membership (24.30 per night). They had pull through sites in the middle and back in sites on the edges. Each side had utilities on opposite sides. We would definitely stay here again when passing through southern Idaho.

I wish they could make this a full time RV Park. Great place to walk your dogs. Coming from Arizona, i was amazed with all the different types of trees and grass. Grass all over.

This is a lovely campsite! And love the quiet! We found the location super easy to get to, and most accommodating to our needs. If you want a change up from the large RV parks, this is your opportunity! And pups are definitely welcome!

This was our first stay in an RV park. The roads getting in and out of the park were a bit curvy and narrow but we’re not a problem. You drive down into a small canyon with a little creek running through it. Lots of trees grass and picnic tables. Very clean and well maintained.

Hidden just off the main road, this lovely park and RV campground is completely unexpected. Don’t let the industrial feel of the initial area scare you off, down the hill you’ll find a park in the gorge! The Rock Creek winds through the park past picnic tables and covered gathering areas. There are two playgrounds, multiple shelters, a handicapped accessible fishing pier, and biking/walking path. The RV park is open April 1-Nov 1 for campers only, no tents. Sites are gravel but level and there’s water and electric at each site. There is no dump onsite, but Twin Falls has a free one a mile away, so as long as you plan accordingly, you should be fine! Cost in 2020 was $20 per night, cash or check only. We had exceptional service for both Verizon and AT&T. Be sure to check out the waterfalls just outside of town when you visit! Both Shoshone Falls and Perrine Coulee falls are less than 15 minutes from the park!

The dirt road getting down to the river wasn’t bad, but larger vehicles might have a little trouble. I saw an RV parked at the top. I found a cool spot underneath trees like a little cave towards the end of the road. There was a campfire ring and it was shaded and private. The river is really pretty and there’s a little waterfall to see. The area was really beautiful and I felt like I was the only person there.

7/22/19-7/31/19. Staff was efficient and helpful. I was in the new section with my Grand Design Solitude 384GK 5th. Since I was the new section of the RV park, the trees haven't grown enough to create a lot of shade, but that really didn't cause a problem. The site was a pull through and was very well designed and maintained. Ample trash containers, grass dog area, large table ad grass, 10pm-7am noise restrictions strictly enforced.

Really beautiful and low key state park. The rock formations are really cool and the whole place has a calm and peaceful vibe. There are pit toilets but no other amenities, not even trash, so please take your trash out with you. 

Camp sites are scattered all along the main road, and broken up into area numbers. Kind of confusing until you see it for yourself. The hard part here is that the sites are all so different that you really need to see the site for yourself before deciding where you want to camp, but the cell signal here is minimal and sites MUST be reserved through Reserve America (online or by phone).  The highest sites towards the end of the road do have cell signal for both verizon and ATT, but everywhere else in the park there was no reception. There is wifi at the visitor center.

Another bummer about the reservation system is the $10 fee per transaction. Sites are $14/night, so we paid $24 for one night.

NOTE: when you are reserving on Reserve America, "City of Rocks RV, ID" is a private RV park in the area. The park you want to choose is City of Rocks National Reserve, ID. 

The park is a designated dark sky park, which is cool, but from our site (#63) the lights from the town of Oakley were pretty bright on the horizon, though the stars in the sky were still amazing. We are in a 26ft class c and there were plenty of sites for us to choose from when we visited mid week in July. Very few other campers there when we were there. The paved road ends shortly after the visitor center but the dirt and rocky and at times washboarded road was ok in our motorhome. We stopped at the visitor center on the way up and got lots of helpful info from the rangers on duty. 

No hookups or dump station at this park, but we stopped at the Castle Rock campground on the way out and filled our tank with potable water and dumped for free.

Well kept, like a city park. RV spots very nice, tents a second thought. Minimal shade if that is what you want. No wind breaks. Lake is pretty, lots of waterfowl today. Toilets clean, lots of picnic tables, caters to boaters.

Camping self serve today. Electric works, water not on yet.

I picked this campground because it was convenient to I-84. It is a real gem along the Snake River adjacent to the campground. Camp Host did a great job and was very helpful. My pull through was level and had full hookups. WiFi was also great. The showers were very clean. My dog enjoyed laying in the green grass between sites. There is a nice riverwalk/Park next to the campground. The campsites are nicely spaced apart. My only minus would be no online reservation system. Sites are reserved through telephone through camp Host.
