Visitors appreciate the proximity to the river and hot springs, which enhance the camping experience, along with the friendly and helpful camp host.

Very clean campground. The vault toilets were kept very clean as well. On the weekdays, it was quiet. Weekends were very crowded and busy. Overall this is a great family campground.

Beautiful campground! Only complaints were the amount of people hovering around the springs, not social distancing at all. Also, there were not grills on top of the fire pits. But overall had a great experience.

Beautiful, well-maintained campground with lots of shade near the South Fork of the Boise River.

We love this campground, despite the high use of ATV's and motorcycles. Imagining this area without the constant noise and dust from the constant ATV usage, it would be perfect. Mountain biking and hiking isn't the best, because you always run into ATV's, kicking up dust and going way too fast. Fortunately, the campground doesn't allow the ATV's to be ridden IN the campground, but unfortunately, they go past the group spot on the road all - day - long.

Nice campground. My only complaint is that you can't drive your ATV in the campground. I understand not riding it around, and being obnoxious....but simply riding it back to your camp spot and back out to go ride trails should be allowed.
