"We have a 27' Travel Trailer and we booked a full hook-up site at this location in Buhl, Idaho along the Snake River. It was $20/night. We camped for a couple of nights at the end of May."
"The Campground is beautiful tucked along the Snake River and scattered with massive beautiful trees. The grass is green and the ground is soft."
"Good:
- Easy on and off the highway. Including a convenient gas station when leaving in the morning."
"But it’s close to the falls and you can take a drive to balanced rock."
"Nice 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 site is very close to the town, like a quick 5 minute drive."
$20 / night
"Well kept with lawns, walking trails, BBQs, etc. Electric and water. Vault toilets. No dump station but options close by. Quiet. Partially shaded. Paved. Almost level. Would stay again."
"OVERVIEW: The RV park is part of the county park- beautiful walking/bike path with the creek flowing through."
"I stop by every time I swing through Idaho."
"It is a nice grassy spot behind the bathrooms. The other spots were great for pull-through RV's or tent spots."
"We used this more of a dock and boat ramp which gave us access to a great stretch of the Snake River. In the building there is a nice warm pool with slides and rolling logs for the kiddies"
"We just stopped for one night as we were traveling through, and we camped at the edge of the Snake River."
"The camp area is small you can park next to a bench and sleep over night. You are allowed 7 night max. Stream runs through the site. Looks more like a day camp but overnights are ok."
"Walking distance to Balanced Rock. Lots of natural features. Kayakers paddle up and then float back down. Lots of fishing but little catching. Definitely worth the drive."
$10 - $20 / night
"Convince store within walking distance. And yes a great sunset from the bleachers!"
"Several drive through sites. Mostly paved."
"Very well maintained, laundry is cheap, $3, and just a joy to be outside. We spent our time around the picnic table, despite 98°temps."
"The nearby town offers a great wood oven pizza place called Fire Pie Pizza. There is plenty of room to walk your pups and just sit back and relax as it is remarkably quiet here."
$35 / night
"We enjoyed the quiet location just outside Twin falls and located in the middle of area parks and attractions. Our kids loved the horses and puppies."
"It was a perfect place for us close to the gorge and nice country Roads to ride bikes on. "
ScoutThe farm road out has a small patch of very rough road. It was just passable in my non-lifted Sprinter. There is a smallish open area to camp at the top, it’s very exposed and you will have approximately 15 flies in your car in 90 seconds. The road down to the water is beyond tore up- I don’t know how anyone makes it down. The water is very green/slimy, I had my dog jump in but I wouldn’t dunk myself. We didn’t stay.
GuideLove this little campground, right along Rock Creek. Went in January as well as mid September and hardly any other people. Vault toilets (not available in winter) and water available, no trash service so be prepared to pack it out. As others have said it's right along the road so you do get the occasional traffic noise. Overall though a great campsite.
GuideFarm road to BLM awash with loads of potholes but can be navigated cautiously. Once at the Cauldron, do not go down to the river unless you have 4WD. Whilst you can get down, recent rains mean the doable steep climb back out is riddled with massive dips and rocks. While I did get out in a 2WD (small) van with a lift, it took a few tries and a kindly fellow camper who could watch and help me troubleshoot a doable path. Great hiking all around the Snake River offers serenity with dramatic rock formations and vegetation. Beautiful migration of myriad geese at night. Campers have left their marks in disappointing ways, so please pack out what you pack in. Sheriff came by around sunset—due to hazardous road and shady business on weekends.
ScoutOnly stayed for a night , plenty of spots open. Easy to drive to. Stayed by the water , didn’t drive up on the ridge.
GuideFantastic campground. Road and sites are paved with full (50/30/120v) hookups. Gravel area next to each site for sitting/campfires. Has bathroom and showers (NFI). Sites are spaced out so minimal noise and more privacy. Short drive or walk into Hagerman. Only drawback was a lack of trees but it’s flat and in the middle of pasture land so..
LegendFound when we wanted to stay near Twin Falls Idaho.

TravelerSmall campground, and not far off the main hwy. Very clear stream and beautiful rock features.
GuideI am so surprised I have service! Car camping with my dog. Right by the water. Several very cool spots to pick from. You need a 4WD. My pup Wolfie loved it too!
TravelerFirst two days were good, weather was hot but doable. Only available sites were not close to level and unfortunately the gravel was deep enough that I had trouble getting level blocks in place. Got it close enough to work. This was Labor Day weekend so pretty full. Day 3 saw the arrival of the flies that others have noted. Horrible. Nice tables under pavilions, fire rings and relatively clean vault toilets, dumpsters and a RV dump.
