A variety of hiking, biking, horseback riding and off-road vehicle trails crisscross the surrounding area. The cabin is less than one mile from the Richards Hollow Trailhead and Friendship Campground.

Egan Basin Guard Station is a rustic retreat in the Montpelier Ranger District of the Caribou-Targhee National Forest of southeastern Idaho, near the Utah border. The Montpelier area is known for its abundance of year-round recreational opportunities. The guard station is accessible by car during warmer weather. Winter guests must be prepared to snowmobile to the cabin in snowy weather, and are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety. The cabin provides few amenities, so guests should be prepared to haul most of the gear and supplies they'll need to make their stay comfortable.

We did not have reservations and with two long back to back travel days heading home, we needed an easy place to land close to the interstate. $60 for one night electric and water which we did not need for our teardrop, but all sites were the same price which included park fees.
Very nice staff and host found us a spot with which even had a limited view of the lake. Site was brand new with pull through that would easily accommodate a larger rig. Had a nice pavilion type cover over the picnic table, fire ring, and restrooms and showers were new in the section we were staying in.
As sun went down the mosquitos started to swarm and chased us inside. Haven't experienced that level of bugginess outside of several of the swamps we camped at in the southeast. Middle of the night a skunk visited our campsite and hung around for quite a while. Traffic noise from I-15 was excessive.
Don't let the pictures fool you. Views were ok in most directions but what I did not show was the large commercial storage yard used by the park service which was directly next door to our campsite. Fee's should have been much lower given the location but we did not have reservations and were fortunate to get a site.
If camping in a traditional RV this is an ok option, and it is cheaper than some of the commercial campgrounds nearby. Would stay here again if we needed an easy overnight stopover as the location is terrific.
Guide
Everyone here was so nice and the staff was absolutely fantastic and so accommodating. Good spacing between tent sites, and they were spacious. It’s set up in a loop with all the amenities right in the middle so no matter where your spot is you’re just a tiny stroll away. Heated pool when it’s in season, and they seem to host a lot of fun events! I missed the ice cream social sadly. They also have air hockey and a ping pong table in the office building. This was my favourite KOA so far!
Note: Bring bug spray! I got bit a fair amount by mosquitoes.
Legend
We love finding campgrounds with unique elements. Hot springs and water slides fit the bill. Tight spots, no sewer were the only downsides. Great groups there during our stay, easy to get around. Nice amenities. Beautiful sunrise and nice staff. It’s a no frills with frills kind of place.
ScoutIt was outside so awesome 👏
ScoutHosts are attentive, easy back in site.
GuideWe’ve stayed here three times and each about the same. Full hook ups were nice. Clean bathrooms with free showers were a plus. The only downside was road noise from the nearby freeway and lots of bugs, probably due to the lake. But for a travel through stopover it was fine.
GuideSuper noisy both nights I stayed, literally people were kicked out both days for noise issues. Road noise from the walk in site I was at. Super pretty and close to the city. But not worth it if you like sleeping. No showers limited access to water
ScoutVery clean and safe with all the amenities you could need. Friendly staff as well.
GuideFriendly staff, clean , quiet. Bathrooms clean plenty hot water and free coffee.
GuideTwo loops that we saw, the first has no hook ups and the second has power and water at each site. There’s a little paved slab with a picnic table and covering, each site has a fire pit and charcoal grill. $30 for no hook ups $40 for hookups, got in around 8pm and no $30 sites left. There are toilets and showers for each loop. Really close to the highway so be prepared for that noise, and there’s a train that goes by every so often.
TravelerWe come here every year to meet family. Friendly staff, clean areas, reasonable rates. Busy time is between Memorial Day and Labor day. We always visit after Labor Day. No sewer, electricity and water at most sites
ScoutGreat spot! We stopped here for a night during our travels & we loved it! The staff is extremely nice & helpful. The grounds are well cared for, the showers are free & hot, the bathroom is clean, & there’s laundry available. As other reviews have mentioned, the spaces are very close together & there is some traffic noise from the nearby interstate (this didn’t effect our sleep or experience, but it’s worth mentioning). We would definitely stay here again.
ScoutIt’s got very well kept beaches, you can access the neighbor beaches as well with the pass you buy
GuideHeaded north, this is a good stop north of SLC. Pull thru sides are plenty long, just close together. Pool is heated, laundry is $4/load. Staff is very nice. Lots of shade available.
Scout
A special friend has built a cabin right on the river. I have been so blessed to have shared fun times on razor rides on all the many trails up the Mountainside. There is the Deer Cliff Lodge and plenty of campsites all up the Cub river.
Guide
Don't waste ur time if your a tent camper. There's a pool with a hundred ppl in it, no where bear river. I just kept driving , didn't feel super safe
GuideWe came here just to stop for the night, and found it a pleasant place to stay. It is off the road a bit with no traffic noise. One of the smaller KOA campgrounds.
TravelerTucked away from SLC, it's a perfect little oasis. It is next to a moderately busy road that connects mountain towns, it's much quieter than anything you'll find in SLC and the drive is absolutely stunning. Bathrooms are everywhere, beach access is idyllic.
ScoutThe lake is beautiful, and the campground is clean.
Always crowded, hard to get a spot unless you reserve months in advance.
Not a lot of trees, more of a meadow.
So not a lot of privacy between other campers.
Lake has a great ‘day use’ beach for the family as well.
GuideThe drive up to the lodge and rv park is amazing. Great hosts and a wonderful spot.
RangerWe stayed here one night on our way home from the southeast. It was a welcome sight after a long day's driving. It's far enough off of the highway to be quiet and peaceful. There are clean showers and all of the amenities. The park is along a route through orchards and farms, with plenty of produce stands. The fruit trees were flowering when we came through. So pretty! This is a nice place to locate when exploring SLC.
ScoutHad a amazing time at bear river hot springs staff was vary friendly and helpful with getting my motorhome backed in and settled in the pools have been updated definitely will be coming back soon
TravelerThe office was very good to work with the park looked well maintained we came in the fall so the fun summer stuff was put away. They have a lot of orchards near and fresh fruit stand close by which would be great in summer but in the fall it made the area buggy. Easy to get in and out of. Level sites and a quiet area. We would stay again if In the area. Internet was always working and fast!
ScoutArrived late on rainy night. Flat sight easy full hook ups.
GuideThis place is spotless and well-cared for.
We are car camping in a Tesla and the destination charge gave us the oomph to go up to Jackson WY the more scenic way via Soda Springs . We were the only guests (weekday after the kids are back in school=quiet time.) Got some road tips and local history from the friendly camp hosts and had a very pleasant stay!
GuideLocation at the foot of the mountain provides amazing views and panoramic vistas. The staff is amazing and polite and helpful. Well maintained camp. Site is long and narrow but well shaded and clean. For a great dinner out try Maddox Ranch House (2.5 miles away) and skip the 60 min plus wait by asking the camp hosts for a VIP seating pass. Worth it.
Overall a great place to stay.
ScoutNice facilities, paved pull-thru and back in spots. I checked in around 8 pm and found no one at the entrance booths but there are provisions to leave a cash payment in an envelope and drop into a slot. The traffic noise from I-15 is quite present. It's very distracting and probably the loudest I've experienced. On the bright side, it is easy to access being right off the exit.
