Great spot overlooking the water and just a short walk to the private sandy beach. Bring solar light for your site to help navigate the gravel covered campground at night as it's got a slight grade. Amazing Sunsets and sturdy covered table area which we were able to put some hammock chairs on. Site 1 closest to a very clean restroom, site 4 and 5 best for larger than 20 ft trailers. Great hiking trails down the road. No cell service which we liked so download music beforehand.

I had a wonderful stay. My only complaint is that there seem to be people there who don't belong there. I only say this because there are sometimes large groups of people on the beach that don't account for the sites. I also notice that the spots get reserved and people don't always show up. There are other spots that I would prefer to stay in out of the limited 5 RV spots, but they are usually reserved. When I get there, the sites are sitting empty. It would seem that they are reserving the site for the use of the docks and the beach and not using the site. This is not fair to those of us who want to use the sites. Please be considerate. I know that staff is doing their best with the resources they have to check that people registered. My comments are not towards staff. They are doing an excellent job.

Beautiful location, but extremely hot temperatures so definitely bring a generator to run your AC during summer months. Our camper got up to 91 degrees even with the fan on and windows open during the day.

Loved this Camp spot. It’s the only one of the RV spots that’s not directly next to the road. It was great having the sitting area elevated behind the main spot that gave us more privacy and better views.

We stay at Macks Creek at least once a year. The camp hosts this year were very pleasant and were working hard to keep the area clean. However, although the area is posted for campers use only, there were people parking in our reserved spot and using the picnic shelters for day use the whole time we were there. The park rangers were seen buy us only twice in the 4 days we stayed. They need to make a few more trips through the camp and make sure only reserved patrons are using the sites. Some people came late in the evenings and camped in vacant sites and left in the morning. Maybe the staff needs to go back to issuing parking permits?

- Advance reservations are required for all sites.
- CHECK IN: Upon arrival, campers should check in with the camp host. If the host is unavailable, please keep your electronic reservation confirmation handy for verification by Park Rangers on patrol. All visitors may be asked to show ID and/or proof of reservation upon check-in. Site reservations cannot be transferred upon arrival.
- LATE ARRIVAL. Please phone the Lake Office at (208) 343-0671 to notify park staff of your late arrival. You may also leave a message for the Camp Host and Park Rangers at (208) 455-4281, who will check this voicemail before releasing No-Show sites. Failure to appear at a reserved campsite in the first 24 hours will result in the release of that site with additional charges applying.
- Upon checkout, reservation holders are expected to depart Macks Creek Campground. Lingering Day Use activities and late departures from the campground are not permitted. If you have reserved the campsite with the intention to leave in the evening do not intend to return for the remainder of your reservation, please notify the host, park staff, or Lake Office so we may open up the campsite upon your departure for future use.
- Parking is extremely limited. To ensure all reserved campers are accomodated, please see individual site notes for the maximum number of people allowed in each site. If your group is larger, reserve additional sites. Sites 1-5 park within their site or nearby unassigned areas. Site 6 has three assigned parking stalls. Sites 7, 8, 11 and 12 have two assigned parking stalls each, Group Site 9 has four parking stalls, and Sites 13-15 have one parking stall each (but are located near a large unassigned shoulder parking area).
- Docks are shared and not assigned to sites.
- Unreserved Day Use is NOT permitted May-Sept. The campground is reservation only May-September and closed to vehicle traffic the remainder of the year. Due to the limited amount of space available and parking, unreserved day use is not allowed. The rest of the lake is open to day use and nearby attractions are- Arrowrock Dam, 5-mile, Naked Rock, and Spring Shores Marina.
- Macks Creek Campground is a high demand area. If you do not intend to use your reservation, ensure cancellation is prompt so we may open up the sites to people who wish to use the site. No-show fees will apply after 24 hours.
