    This award-winning, peaceful KOA lies along the Oregon Trail, halfway between Salt Lake City and Yellowstone National Park. Settle back in a tree-shaded site, lulled by the trickle of the creek that runs through the campground. Drop a lure into the creek (fishing license required) or relax in the heated pool. Your dog will love the fenced-in dog park and a walk along the nature trail. No RV or tent? Stay in a tepee with modern conveniences or a Cabin by the creek. Or go "camping" in a Deluxe Cabin with a full bath/linen service. The National Oregon/California Trail Center provides an amazing look at the pioneer experience, including a computer-simulated covered-wagon ride. For adventure today, you can explore ATV trails, enjoy water sports at Bear Lake, bird-watch at Bear Lake National Wildlife Refuge or head underground to Minnetonka Cave. Please call for campground's early opening dates. Pool: Memorial Weekend Labor Day Weekend. Max pull thru: 120 feet. Your hosts: Jim and Brenda Reno.

    Maple Grove Hot Springs

    Great camping and great hot springs

    This is one of my favorite places on earth. They have tent sites, van sites and a selection of shelters to choose from. Camping gets you access to the hot springs from check in until 4pm the next day. There’s running water in the bathhouse with a toilet and shower. There’s yoga classes included in the price as well. The bathhouse also has a nice little shop with snacks and gifts. They sell tinfoil dinners too if you want to really relax. Highly recommend! They offer volunteer days as well where you can camp and soak in exchange for volunteer work.

    Great stay!

    Just a one night stay on our way headed north but wish we could have stayed longer… lots of sites that really have a lot of privacy and back right up to the forest. Also trails right if the campsite. Super well maintained and bathrooms were clean. Also huckleberry picking right from camp! Gorgeous area, will definitely go back again.

    Nice off-season dispersed stay!

    Spent three nights and enjoyed it quite a bit! Was extremely quiet during our stay, but seems to be a popular spot during the high season. Verizon service was spotty but we occasionally had reception. Road in was fair, rough at times, but doable in our low-clearance rig. Nice views from our spot, but the river was dry due to the on-going drought. Would stay again!

    Below average for a KOA

    Boasts some creek side sites. Sites are very close together, water pressure is not great. Lot of roadside noise. The creek has a nice flow. Site was pretty level, great cell service through Verizon. WiFi sucks. Very “rustic” looking campground. It was OK for one night but I wouldn’t want to stay here any longer.

    Secluded and truly in nature

    8 miles down a dirt road in the Bridger Teton Forest was absolutely worth it for these views. The sites were well spaced out, each site had a bear box, and the vault toilets were immaculate. The camp host was extremely knowledgeable about the campsites and was able to recommend ones suitable for my roof top tent and view preferences. Definitely worth it. Dont forget to check out the hot springs both the formal ones and the one by the waterfall!

    Quaint place with full hookups and amenities. The men's bathroom was quite dirty but the owners were friendly and the wifi worked well.

    Easy to get to and basic

    We just needed a place to stop for the night. This had a pit toilet which wasn’t bad. My husband fished the creeks and we saw a ton of fish. FS said it was closed but there was no gate and others campers so we gave it a shot. Glad we did. The little lake across the street was awesome to catch and release some small cutthroats. Got a little chilly at night so the fire rings were good.

    Wow

    The veiws, trails, and sites are awesome. The creek with the hot springs are everything. I would definitely go back here. Its a little of a drive from the main road on a dirt road, I wouldn't recommend a small or low vehicle driving that road.

    Granite Creek Campground

    Beautiful well maintained

    Great spot in the Granite Creek recreation area. Once on the granite creek road there are about 20 sites with rock fire pits dispersed along the river for 8 miles (down a dirt road). Then you will hit the actual campground which has a lot of good spots with picnic tables, bear boxes and fire rings. Sunny and shaded spots available. There is a beautiful waterfall about 1/2 a mile up from the campsite where you can walk into the river. Another 1/2 mile up you will get to the hot spring pool $8 per person. Really beautiful warm water and not busy. We camped Thursday night and the campground was about half full.

    Nice Forested Campground, But With Some Road Noise

    Stopped here overnight on a mid-weekday on the way from Great Basin National Park to Grand Teton National Park. Nice, forested campground. There's a camp host up front that has firewood for sale. (We didn't need any, so didn't interact with them.)

    My photos are from campsite #8. Many campsites were reserved for Thursday through Sunday, but no problem mid weekday to get a first come, first serve site in early July.

    Our site had enough flat areas for two 2+ dome dents. There was a little path to the bathrooms. Each bathroom had two stalls, but for COVID-19 times, one stall was closed off and there was a sign on the door saying that one person was allowed in the bathroom at a time. No showers.

    Water was across from our campsite. Each campsite has a table and fire pit. Some sites had little paths that went between them, so if you had multiple sites together, you could walk between them without going to the little road through the campground.

    Lots of four-wheelers around, but nothing too crazy. I believe this is a trailhead for winter sports (snowmobiling?). There was a little dirt road that went off from the campground that we didn't have time to explore. Not sure about hiking trails from the campground.

    The campers here were quiet and respectful, but there is road noise from the highway that runs sort of above the campground. Trucks use the highway and it's on a little bit of a grade, so you could definitely hear them. I wore earplugs and (even as a light sleeper) slept just fine. That's why I knocked a star off.

    No bear boxes, but bears didn't seem to be an issue. We just kept our food in the car. There were chipmunks around who could try to steal food if you left it out, just like with any campground. 

    Lots of summer flowers! Also lots of summer mosquitos, but that's expected.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND !Great host and beautiful campsite!

    We booked a tent site online and pulled in around 8 pm on a Monday night shortly after the covid shutdown. It was raining and the temperature was 37 degrees and due to drop to 29 overnight. The incredibly kind host gave us a cabin for no extra charge since the campsite was almost empty. Character like that is hard to come by anymore! The campsites are beautiful, nestled right beside the creek. The scenery all around is beautiful rolling, green hills. Very quiet and clean. Clean restrooms and just 2 miles from town. The shop at the campsite has basic necessities, snacks, and drinks. There’s a playground for children and a fenced area for dogs. We are tremendously thankful for the host being so generous and will ABSOLUTELY be staying here again in the future! Highly highly highly recommend!

    Quite and clean

    Staff will help ensure a relaxing stay. Pool is heated but not hot, due to being in the trees there is a few floating items but gets cleaned every day. Creek runs through the front of camp. You can fish in it. Playground is adequate for children. Plenty of dog runs.

    Nice Little KOA by the Creek

    This KOA is close to the mouth of Montpelier Canyonand therefore can be hot in the summer.  It does however lie right next to the creek!  Also right next to the creek before the campground is a doggy walking and poo area.  The office is large and has quite a few convenience items.  There are shaded picnic areas and camping with options for hookuos, the standard KOA stuff.  A little bonus was the kids playground complete with swings and other toys

    Primitive w/ Sparse Amenities

    This campground was just up canyon from the Montpelier Canyon established campground and the KOA's.  Theres nothing fancy about this dispersed camping area at all, but it does give you solitude and a nice little stream to sit near.  We encountered large almost parking lot areas at varying distances from the main road.  It is all dispersed with no bathrooms or anything else that comes with a developed campground.  You could probably bring your horses up and ride the whole side canyon and possible do some hunting when the season comes around

    Nice forest camping close to Bear Lake

    Easily accessible. Close to lots of attractions in the Bear Lake area, but far enough from everyone else. the campground is in a beautiful forest with lots of trails and space to explore. Can be a very popular and crowded place on holiday weekends.

    Montpelier Creek KOA

    Beautiful KOA on the Wyoming/ Idaho border

    I like staying at KOA’s during road trips - I choose a cabin so I can have a bed, there are plenty of things for the kids to do and everyone can find their pace/place to wind down from the day. Some are definitely better than others - Montpelier Creek was one of the BEST. This is a beautiful KOA. Our cabin was right on the creek, and I found my pace and place on the porch and nature trail watching birds and listening to the creek while the kids enjoyed the pool and playground. Everything was in great shape, including the shower house. Wonderful area with lots of history and natural beauty.
