We stayed here for one night on our way from Washington State back home to Kansas. It is off the beaten path. You have to drive about 8 miles off the interstate to get to this place.

We stayed here for one night on our way from Washington State back home to Kansas. It is off the beaten path. You have to drive about 8 miles off the interstate to get to this place. The last 1/2 mile to the campground was one of the worst dirt roads I ever drove on. You literally have to drive about 4 or 5 mph due to the potholes and washboard. It was quiet there. Only one other camper. There are a lot of rodents there, so be careful of putting your food up. One even got into our camper the night we stayed there and helped himself to some Reese's peanut butter cups in our drawer! The water spigot barely had water coming of of it...hardly any pressure. But all in all, I enjoyed staying there, but would not go out of my way again if we ever traveled through that area. The campground does have a pretty view of the area, with plenty of mountains surround it.

We drove up here the morning after spending a sleepless night behind Mollie's Cafe with trucks in and out all night. Wish we had seen this place on the map. It's worth the drive for the peace and quiet. It's been a while since we were there. What I remember is decent flat gravel sites with water. Vault toilets. The boat ramp is not functional. There were a few campers there in early June. Fishing? Lots of birds.

I called ahead to make sure I could get in and was told the gate would most likely be open but everything else closed up. Bathrooms are open, the water spigots are off. Very quiet out here. Most spots have a covered picnic table. As far as level spots, you’re on grass with maybe some gravel, not really graded level. The 1/4 mile road in is gravel with washboard all the way. You’ll want to go real slow.

Most of the sites have covered picnic tables, the three most northern sites do not. The lake was pretty, decent fishing with spinners. There are a ton of pokies, so if you take dogs watch out for that. You can swim there, however no plastic can be in the water (boats, kayaks, etc.) it does get pretty windy for an hour or two at a time! Also there are SO MANY EARWIGS!! Overall it was a great time and we’d love to go back.

For dry camping, $15 is right on my line so we decided to stay but cut the stay by one day to make up for it. At $10 I would have given it 5 stars but dry camping in the middle of no where for $15, next time I'd just drive up to Murtaugh Lake Park Campground where you get electric and water for that price with the lake view.

We stopped here to break up our drive from Salt Lake to Twin Falls and it was SO MUCH BETTER than expected. We extended our stay an extra night because it was so nice. Park 5 ft from the lake(our golden retriever swam in it all day). Nice grass and a covered picnic table/fire pit at every site. There are two camping areas (each with about 6 sites) and we had plenty of room in our 30ft class A motor home. Day 1 there was a single other camper there and another showed up day two. 10 min drive from the highway and you only need to drive on a dirt road for about 1/4 mile to enter the campsite. No hookups! And supposed to be $10 per night but no fee box and no camphost so we could not pay, but would have been worth it! Stop here!!!! Perfect ATT service. Zoom calls no problem.

Because the water is off and it is not part of the normal season the fee was waived. We pulled in at sunset and it was a very easy drive in. There were 2 other rigs parked here and the site were large and flat. This was a perfect spot to stop for the night on our way to SLC.

This is a very nice campground and big rig friendly. All 13 sites are long, about 50’ and level. Some sites are doubles. Each site has a covered picnic table on a concrete pad and a fire ring. Sites are all back in but there is plenty of room. There are several large tent sites and a group area that has to be reserved.
