Heise Hot Springs

Heise Hot Springs RV Park is about 6 miles off the Highway 26, and about 25 miles from Idaho Springs Idaho. This is a destination Park, billed as a Hot Springs getaway. There is a Hot Springs pool that is open to the public and very popular on the weekends, as is the Park.

The RV Park is actually 3 different areas, scattered about 1/4 mile apart. There are 'seasonal' sites close to the Office, Pizza place and hot springs. These RV sites are occupied by mostly full-timers that come for the entire summer. The other 2 sections are further away, and across the road from the main area.

The RV Park sits right on the Snake River and there are parts of the area that are beautiful. Near the hot springs area, there are picnic tables and large trees that provide a picturesque setting for a lunch or fishing afternoon.

There is a small 9-hole golf course, a pizza place that makes decent pizza and the hot springs. In addition, there is a Zipline that traverses the ridge above the remote sections of the campground.

The sites are grass and gravel, and surprisingly further apart than many Parks. During the week, there were never more than 6 occupants of our section, except for the weekends. Locals from Idaho starting arriving on Thursday night and by Friday night the entire 40 spots were filled. Then on Sunday, everyone left and we were back to just a few.

The park is well maintained and pleasant to stay. We stayed in a motorhome.
