Best RV Parks & Resorts near Wendell, ID

Despite this RV park being heavily occupied by long term residents in 85% of the park, it was well maintained and clean. Quiet. Staff was amazing, super friendly and helpful.

Ricketts BLM RV Camp just north of Twin Falls. This fee-free primitive BLM camp offers 2 vault toilets (in case you did not bring own) and 13 level RV parking pads, each with a picnic table and fire ring, but no electric or water hook-ups. There is also equestrian and overflow parking if needed.

See photos of proximity of McD’s and more, road noise, loads of long-term residents.

I rented an RV spot here for a reunion. Not having much experience at an RV park I was surprised at having zero shade and being packed in so tightly and being on gravel! Not kid/family friendly at all. I assumed my kids could set up a couple tents right outside our camper but it wasn't possible. I had to rent a camping spot which was well shaded. Anyway, we had a great time at the pavilion for the reunion, and enjoyed kayaking and boating right there close to the RV park and campground. We never swam at the indoor pool. I would choose a different place to camp next time we go to that area.

Because we'd usually rather be boondocking, we're all about cheap when we actually have to pay for a campsite. And if we're actually going to have to pay, we want the whole shebang -- 50A electric, water and sewer hookups -- because why pay for what we otherwise get for free? The Twin Falls County Fairgrounds delivers on both counts.

The RV Park is located on the east side of the fairgrounds and has 80 spaces with full hook-ups (water, sewer & 50 amp power); and 100 hook-up with (water & 30 amp power). Spaces with amenities cost $21.20, tax included per night, or $106 for a week (buy 5 nights/get 2 free). Dry camping with no amenities is available for $10.60, tax included per night. Maximum stay is 2 weeks. No reservations, everything is first-come, first-served.

Sites are located on grass, with dirt roads throughout the campground. Hookups for water, electric and sewer are located behind your RV. While the site itself is level, that makes it uphill for the sewer run so we wish that they had chosen a more traditional layout. Still, for this price I'm not complaining. Also, if the place actually filled up these sites would be crazy tight; however, during our visit July 2021 they're not even close to 50% capacity, so folks are leaving at least one site between themselves and their neighbors. 

Cell signal strength and data speeds are solid on both Verizon and AT&T. We've been both working and streaming with no issues whatsoever.

There's a separate dump station on site with potable water. The bathrooms are individual units with showers, and are immaculate. If you arrive after hours you have to call the after-hours number on the sign, and James will come out and determine your site and collect your money (cash or check only). The campground occasionally closes for events held at the Fairgrounds, and in 2021 that's for two events. Check their website for details. There was a lot of activity during our stay including equestrian events and even a monster truck rally, so there's lots to keep you entertained while you're in the campground and not out exploring the Twin Falls area.

Filer is a tiny ranching community just west of Twin Falls. Campers will find the surprisingly complete M&W Market just down the street, along with a True Value Hardware. And all of the chains and big box stores are nearby in Twin Falls, only 7 miles away.

No livestock are allowed in RV area, but boarding is available in stables adjacent to the campground for $10 inside/$5 outside. Dogs are not allowed to roam freely and must be under supervision of their owner, either on a leash or kennel. 

So when everything else was booked solid in July 2021, we found dirt cheap FHU sites aplenty at the Twin Falls County Fairgrounds!

I think they have the wrong name listed on here for this RV park. We stayed one night here in our RV and only was $35 for a night with only 30 and 50 AMP hookups. There’s some sites with no hookups at all.

As the name suggests, this is an RV park only and our first disappointment with an Idaho county park. No tents are allowed but the price of $20 per night with water and electric hookups is very reasonable. There are two sections, both are separated from the day-use area. The first section is nicer and a bit more protected from the road directly above but can only accommodate smaller rigs. The next section is not as nice and closer to road noise but is suitable for larger RVs. Surprisingly, there were several open spots on the Saturday of the 4th of July weekend. Don't be put off by the access road - it looks like it will not lead to a park, but it does. This park might be nice if you were with a group of friends or just passing through.

We LOVE this campground! 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 weather was perfect and the river was at a steady flow. The staff was awesome! They were very friendly and accommodating. The hot springs itself was a nice touch. We had our own private room, plus the pool was very comfortable. The site is small and not very many RV sites. There were a few tent sites there as well. They rent kayaks but we brought our own. Very good fishing for trout and bass. We kayaked down stream to the Thousand Springs Bed and Breakfast Winery where we did some wine tasting and bought a few bottles, which we took back to camp. We also paddled to Thousand Springs to see the waterfalls coming down. Another hidden gem that we paddled to was Blue Heart Springs. It was a hidden cove with crystal blue water coming from the depths of the lake. We would definitely visit this location again!!!

Was recommended to stay here by another RV park. This location doesn’t disappoint! Clean showers were easy access. My site has water and electricity to charge my battery bank. Would stay again. Sites are somewhat next to eachother but feels spaced out enough.

very nice little rv park with vineyards in front and golf course behind. winery is across the street with restaurant. we walked over for wine tasting and calamari on the patio. very pleasant

rv sites are set up strangely but they were very nice about letting us park on the grass to reach the sewer , water and electric.

Small RV park in a really pretty spot on the edge of a small winery. They were full when we arrived and inquired about a spot and the owners offered us a free spot in an empty field on the edge of their winery. Score! Much more privacy and beautiful views.

This is an RV park, but I used a tent. Ground is very rocky, but was able to stake it fairly easily. This site is very close to the town, like a quick 5 minute drive. Road is very accessible as well, you won't have any troubles getting to this site unless your suspension is held together by duck tape. Toilet was as clean as a camp toilet can be! My only real negative is that there were a lot of people and pets around that were making noise, but it wasn't that bad. Oh, and there is absolutely no shade at all.

This little hot springs pool and RV park is a bit out of the way but it's generally a fun little place to go.  The RV sites are small and very, very close together.  Four sites shared hookups and even a fire pit.  We brought our own firepan so we didn't have to fight for a pit. There is lots of shade from the mature trees.

Swimming isn't included (or discounted) in the sites and will cost you an additional $8 per swimmer or $4 if you just want to watch.  They even want you to pay them to just be in the park as well as additional cars.  At some point, you can't help but feel a bit nickel and dimed as they try to charge you for just about every little thing.

The swimming is fun but the pool quickly gets crowded.  Most of the park is getting run-down and overall it doesn't feel very organized or regulated.  There were people coming in from all directions, switching spots, and all sorts of chaos during the day and into the night.  Guests were up being loud well into the 3 AM hour.  We had a major moth bug problem and I heard others complaining as well... moths everywhere!  We'll probably swim again sometime but probably not camp.  Can't win them all I guess.

Picabo Angler Silver Creek RV Park is an open 5 acre field set in the center of a quiet farming valley. There are no "camp sites" just a gravel road running around the field. Find a spot you like and park. It has a small creek running along the edge. There is a single pit toilet. We stayed here 9/28/2020.  We saw two moose on the way in and had coyotes serenade us at night. we only stayed here because it was getting late and needed some place to park our truck camper for the night. Would not make this a destiination.

cash or check only Great location! Huge grass areas prevent any crowding and all but a couple RV spots are facing the lake. Fun to watch jet skiers, etc. go by. Slight cow smell a couple times but barely noticeable. Vault toilets are spotless. Generators only allowed for emergencies so not sure what other reviewer was talking about. Grass is green - which is great unless you are in a tent when they water Monday-Thursday then you’ll either enjoy the sprinklers or run for cover. I’m in an RTT so parked off the grass. Can’t believe tent spots are $5/night and RV with hookups is only $15. A couple large trailers parked across the way so seem to fit fine. Tent spaces not delineated but I’m the only one here so no issues with personal boundaries. Will definitely stay here again when I’m in the area.

Based on the other Dyrt reviews, we originally planned to camp here on August 7 during our cross-country road trip. However, the price just didn’t seem worth it to us. We drove around the campground loops and saw that the sites were pretty close together and it was buggy. There were nice facilities at least. There were a number of sites open despite arriving at 10pm, though it was Wednesday. The total price of$40+ included the site fee+ non-res fee+ motor vehicle fee+ state sales tax. We had just come from paying$20 for a state park campground in Oregon with similar facilities, so it seemed silly to pay so much. In the end we stayed at the close by RV park which added a late arrival fee, so we probably only saved$15. Both campgrounds are near a railroad and local airway, so there is a lot of noise. If we could have done it again, I think we would have just skipping camping in this general area and kept driving a little further.
