      Bully Creek Park

      No drinkable water & no promised shady site

      This campsite is OK considering there aren’t many choices in the area. My big complaints were the campsite didn’t have any shade, and when I spoke to the reservation person, she promised me during two different phone calls that I would have shade, and there was none to be had at my site. Luckily I found a nice big shady tree to park my car under since I was car camping and wait under until it got cool enough to move to my site.

      A big thing to make note of is that they do have water, but it is a very high concentration of arsenic in it, which they don’t tell you about when you make a reservation or an any signage other than the bathroom door. This can be a real issue for people in RVs, who will be filling up their tanks with their water and may never hit the bathroom, so be aware!!!

      The sites are nicely spaced out. It can be very hot in the summer here and my experience was it was very windy in the late afternoon and evening.

      Bring your own water!!!!

      Wonderful Quiet Campground

      Spacious camp sites with water. Clean bath house with great shower & hot water. Picnic table & fire circle. Isolated on hill top with grass spaces for tent & open meadow fields. Amazing star gazing at night.

      Decent place for the night

      DO NOT take S. Road G! Go into Vale and take Graham to Bully Creek, it’s paved all the way. The other road is 8 miles of rough dirt road through a cattle farm! Sites well spaced out, reservoir is dry. Decent showers, gravel sites, level.

      I really like this place

      It’s located on a dead-end road and is very peaceful. It’s about 15 minutes from the nearest city and about 15 minutes from Snively Hot Springs. The pictures with water are at the Hot Springs. Bathrooms with a shower. The grounds are well-maintained, the bathrooms could be cleaned more often. But there is plenty of hot water.

      Buck Park Cabin

      Warm place when snowmobiling.

      As stated in description it's rustic. Not much to it but it did offer a sheltered place to build a fire/get warm and weather a bad storm. In the summer, the long rough road into it is not for everyone. Scenery is good and very quiet. If you want remote with the bare basics, this is the place.

      Nice last minute stop

      The phone message says reservations only. We left a voice message that we needed one night only and received a call one we were in town. No cell, wifi, TV in the area. They did have space for us at the no contact after hours check in. $15 electric only. Pull through sites on the edge of the lake. Sites 29 and 31. Cons=no Verizon service, No Wifi, goat-heads stickers in dog’s feet in campsite, bathroom smelly near fish cleaning

      Cow Hollow Park

      Not pretty, but,

      Unique, old park with tons of grass and swings, teeter totters, tennis & basketball, baseball fields. Cost is $5...whether you use water & electricity hookups or just park. There are bathrooms with shower! The sites are gravel side by side and like I said, not pretty but the grounds, however unkempt, make up for it. You both see and smell cows, owls, doves and magpies. The camp hosts are lovely elderly people. From a stop on the Oregon Trail, to CCC camp, to Japanese Internment camp and now a privately run park...loads of history.

      Cow Hollow Park

      Not Open Until April

      The hosts were kind enough to let me stay the evening anyway because it’s so far off the beaten path and I’m self-contained in my car with no need for amenities. But their season doesn’t officially start until April.

      It cost five dollars a night according to the host I spoke with, and there is somebody on site at all times. It does feel a lot like just a standard city park but it’s quiet, and peaceful, and it’s about the only thing out in this area.

      Like a big playground

      Cow Hollow Park is like staying in a big school playground. There is playground equipment, a baseball field, a basketball court/tennis court. and a horseshoe pit. It's big and open with plenty of space for tents and a couple of dozen spots for RV's (no dumping or water, only electric). Restrooms and showers.

      Nice quiet little spot for the night

      About 15 minutes in blacktop off of 20. $15/night for electric(20/30/50 Amp) & real toilets and showers. I bet this place is nice on a clear night. We were there when it was smokey from the fires in Western Oregon.

      Two Color Guard Station

      Getting there is half the fun

      This place is quiet, comfortable, and secluded. It’s near the end of 18 miles of unpaved mountain road and some of the most spectacular mountain scenery along the way. The bunkhouse is beginning to show its age but it accommodates a large group and the enclosed porch on the back of the building is a treat. The grounds are enormous and close to Eagle Creek. Plenty of room and flat ground for several tent. Vault toilet only, but it’s clean. Bring your own water.

      Electirc Oasis

      I’m traveling with two big dogs who hate the heat, it’s been over a 100° for about a week around the region and this place made it bearable. It’s really a pretty park, dated, but these trees are massive.

      Dispersed camping in Payette Nat. Forest

      Most of these designated campgrounds are right off the fire roads which can be a bit exposed and tricky if you have children or dogs with you. As you continue to drive there are a few areas on the east side of the road which provide more privacy. Make sure to bring all gear for dispersed camping and pack out everything! The creek is fast running, echoing throughout the canyon so fishing or swimming are not an option.

      Cow Hollow Park

      Peace and quiet farmland

      Found this campsite thru a free site. Beautiful trees line Cow Hollow and history from American-Japanese work/labor camp back in 1942. The town's people we met were amazing. The site takes donations but the city will tell you $10/night. BUT, even paying the $10, you have electric and water hook-ups, two baseball fields, two small parks, basketball/tennis court. Weekends consists of events. We stayed 14 days in tents and had a wedding, church festival and another wedding coming up the weekend we were leaving. Weekdays are quiet. Grassy areas for tents, gravel for RVs. Nice fire rings donated by a Boy Scouts group and brick bbq grills, picnic tables, restrooms and showers.

      12 miles or so towards Lake Owyhee, Snively Hot Springs is to your left before going over the cattle guard. The rocky canyons, Snake River and starry nights are incredible!
