Best RV Parks & Resorts near Swan Valley, ID

This campground has it all... on a pretty creek, nice campsites for both tent campers and RVs, very clean bathrooms. No RV hook ups. Less than a mile from the campground, and easily accessible by bicycle, there is a very nice waterfall. Slightly beyond that is a public hot spring that was made into a pool by the CCC in the 1930s. There are changing rooms and a couple of picnic tables, but no concessions. I think that it was $8 to get in. You are outside looking at the mts. while soaking...aahhh.

We moved for one night to the RV side with full hook ups. The sites are level, long, quite, and nicely spaced out. Well worth the money, close to the lake. There are NO fire rings, only propane fires are allowed in the RV park.

I tried to reserve the site at the rv park right at the time the reservations opened and I ended up getting the only spot open in the non full hook up side. About two weeks prior to our visit, I checked and someone canceled so we were able to get an end spot with full hook ups. There is a lot to do at this campground. We brought and inflatable kayak that had to be inspected and paid a grand Teton permit to use. We attended the 9pm talk with a ranger. We only had two full days there but it was nice. Jackson is about an hour away. We also did a hike with a ranger.

Awesome campground right in the park. We stayed 5 nights and really enjoyed it. Full hook ups yet still plenty of trees and space to where it felt like a national park site and not like an RV park. Lots of amenities grocery store, laundry with free WiFi, showers, restaurant, gas/diesel near by. Was a short walk to Jackson lake which was beautiful. We will definitely be back!

This is a great campground in Alpine WY. Level sites, full hook ups available, excellent wifi and cell service. There is a nice new bathhouse and laundry room (no laundromat in Alpine, so even if you don't camp here you can come use the laundry). The owner has upgraded the grassy areas, offers nice places to sit and hang out, live music at the restaurant/saloon at the entrance with upgrades bring made to the kitchen in order to offer breakfast and dinner options as well. Located right next to the Snake River with mountain views.

Trailer camping here is very cramped. Leaves little to be desired. Cabins looked nice and campsites are available along the Snake River. Showers and bathrooms were adequate. Since it’s near Jackson Hole it over priced. $115 a night. Ouch! People were nice.

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.

I live in the area.

It's a great place to stay, lots of grass and trees full hook ups.

The camp host is very nice.

And it is the best price around here, for a full hook up camp ground.

Context: this is not an RV resort nor a wilderness experience.  It is a pleasant, scenic, rural highway-side campground.  We stayed in early May en route from Bozeman to Moab.  Small pleasant campground near the highway between Yellowstone and SE Idaho sights and Jackson Wyoming.  Small cottonwood shaded sites adjacent to farmland and Teton views.  Clean bathrooms with warm comfortable showers.  The campground is ideal for a stopover or basecamp for visiting the west-side of the Tetons, Craters of the Moon, and other sights in SE Idaho (or passing through on trips between the Greater Yellowstone Region and Utah).  Hookups, wifi, 5G Verizon service.  Only drawbacks, are possible wind and some highway noise.  The owners, living on-site in a beautiful farmhouse, are friendly and accommodating.  It is a trusting handshake type of reservation, payment, and communication system (cash or credit card on site).

UPDATE: as of 2023, online reservation system and payment.  Easy to use.

Just quick FYI, this is now Swan Valley RV park in Irwin, ID. Phone # 208-483-3581, ask for Doug. Returned my VM after I was given the number when I called the Bucks Gas # listed. Nice guy, secured a site for me arriving August 7. Will update and review park then.

Google sent us on back roads, but it was worth driving into a Aspen studded campground. Great place for RV's full hook-ups, clean and friendly!

Colter Bay is my favorite.

I've stayed in the cabins here 3 years in a row and now the camping sites this year (not RV resort) and I cannot get enough of this place. 

Camping amenities are nothing fancy, nor are they bad. The bathrooms next to the sites were clean and flush which was a pleasant surprise.

The site was somewhat level, could have used blocks but we are in a van and only stayed two nights, so it was not that big of a deal. 

Showers in the "Launderette and Showers" were decently clean, nothing to complain about aside from the odd closing at 8pm. (Not really a big deal, just need to plan around it if showers are a part of a nightly routine)

Really nice people. Helped us out in a jam. Clean bathrooms and showers. Full hook ups.

Small sites but full hook up and just minutes walk to the lodge and Jackson lake.

Sites are paved, bathrooms are a private toilet, shower, sink combo that are super clean. Full hook-ups are $30 per night. Loop A has to be reserved on line but I was able to reserve at the campground after picking my site. Well-spaced sites, mostly level. Very quiet.

Just outside of Etna WY. Back-ins and Pull throughs. The usual, full hook ups and WiFi. Park is surrounded by mountains. Very very scenic. Office staff very friendly.

Buck’s is a decent, comfortable spot in a great area. The price is good and they honor Good Sam discounts. They’re about an hour+ outside of Jackson, WY and about 1.5 from Grand Teton. There are some great restaurants, hikes and water activities nearby (right along the Snake River). The gas station has great prices, propane refilling and sells fly fishing gear. The full hookups were good and reliable from what we experienced. The place is no frills, quiet and right along the main road with very easy access. WiFi is spotty at best and the sites are a little wonky. Don’t expect a map or really any information when you arrive to check-in (rules, bathrooms, WiFi password, where garbage is located, etc). There’s a cool food truck that is open in the gas station lot every day. Food looks awesome, but we didn’t have opportunity to try. Come to this place for the surrounding area and good price for full hookups. It’s quiet and you’ll be left in peace.

This is a great full hook up campground inside the national park. Bathhouses were clean and the campground is really quiet. The stars at night are phenomenal and we can’t wait to come back

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.

We were traveling from the snow in the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone and wanted to find a place close by with warmer temps.   Found this campground on google search.  Has a total of 14 RV sites, all full hook ups with a picnic table,  some tent sites and about a dozen cabins.  RV sites are gravel and very level.  There is a playground and picnic area.  There is a shower house and a laundry.   The office has ice and some supplies.  There is a package store in the front and the town of Alpine is about 10 miles away.   The campground is very well kept and the owner is very helpful.   Great view of the mountains from any site and in all directions.

We spent 9 nights in Colter Bay RV park in a 30 ft travel trailer. It is a fairly large RV park, but still an easy walk from laundry, the store, the lake, and the visitor center. The sites were fairly level (the whole campground is on a downhill grade to the lake) and nicely spaced. We enjoyed being in the park, though on the north side it was a bit of a drive to Jenny Lake and Jackson. Overall, a pleasant experience and I would recommend.

Hosts are new owners willing to help in any way and rehabing this place. It looks great! Tetonia is cute and quaint with two great bars open late. The view of the Tetons is out of this world! Full hook ups, dry camping and little motel on site. Within an hour Yu can get to many creeks, lakes, Rexburg, Teton NP and Jackson. Victor, ID has weekly music nights on Thursday that was super fun too.

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 .
