What Guests Are Saying
The stay at Lower Penstemon was enjoyable, with a beautiful and quiet campground featuring a lovely creek that kids and pets appreciated. While the restrooms near campsite 1 were in poor condition, the overall cleanliness, excellent campsites, and fantastic trails contributed to a positive experience. However, potential visitors should note navigation issues with the website and campground map, as well as the small size of site 5 for tent camping.

Stay was great ,the website wasn't the easiest to navigate AND i should state somewhere in there that you get charged for your spot and additional charge to reserve on each spot. Which i did not see anywhere.

The campground is beautiful and quiet. It has a nice little creek that my kids and pups loved! The only downfall is the restrooms across from campsite 1 was in very poor condition.

The campground is very clean with a lot of trees. The weather was nice and cool while Twin falls was at 90's. We stayed for one night and it was nice.
