View and ambience is gorgeous and lake is warm in July. Seems like a hidden treasure for out-of-staters like us. Our expectations were middling before we arrived and Mack’s Creek over performed - big time. There were somehow no mosquitoes, but a local told us that wasn’t normal for July. No good drinking water on site so make sure you bring some. Boise is only 30m drive if you need anything.

We really enjoy going to Mack’s Creek! You must have a reservation which keeps it from being crowded. Great play area for kids. The beach area is very clean. There’s a camp host and Park Ranger checking on things and confirming reservations. No cell service which is also great!

Was warm, as expected when we got to the site, but it cooled down when the sun set. Site was clean and well kept (no trash).
Quiet area and was not bothered by the noise of passing cars (we were in a classB campervan) even throughout the night.

Beautiful campsites right by the lake. Stopped by for a night on a road trip and had no complaints.

RV sites are close to the road, but never bothered us when sleeping. A short walk to the test site gives you access to the water. Great camping site very close to Boise. Too bad the sites close very early in the year (mid-September) .

The camp host was very rude and confrontational. We talked with some other campers and they had the same view of the host as we did. He cased our 88 year old grandmother off of a picnic table that she was setting at when she was eating. The site was not reserved by any other camper.

General
- 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.
- Verizon LTE is available at the Camp Host site. The nearest other cellular service is T-Mobile (three miles away at Mile Marker 1 of Arrowrock Road). An emergency phone pedestal is also located near the Camp Host site to report emergencies and make free local calls by speakerphone.
