Stayed one night. Campground was fairly clean and quiet. Most sites have a great view of the lake. Power and water no dump site.

Only 10 minutes off the Highway. Book online. Felt very safe. There is a playground for kids. Go to cauldron Linn nearby if you have 4wd.

The site suited us in many ways from being an easy pull through, having enough space for slides and awing, being lake side, good amount of privacy, and not noticing cell service issues. I would recommend this park and especially the lake side sites. We stayed on the big rig side at site 21. It is close enough to a lot of outdoor things to do like Shoshone falls, thousand springs state park, etc.. and located near twin falls where you have plenty of shopping and food options.
I will say be cautious and drive slowly through the park because there are big and hard to avoid potholes. They are hard to see as well. They could do better about signage to note which park is the big rig one. It is the second one on road 2900S if you are coming from hwy 30 (E3300N). I have included a photo to show it as well to help others.

Clean vault toilets, big shade trees, great Verizon service. We really liked it here.
Don’t forget, cover the sprinklers and don’t leave anything out you don’t want wet.
Everything else was perfect.

The first night we stayed on a Sunday night and were awakened by birds at sunrise, which was fine. The next time was a week later but a Friday night...sprinklers came on at 1 am and went until 2:30...and not just water, but manure water. We had a water-tight tent but some didn’t and everything smelled like *&it! It stunk so bad we had a difficult time sleeping due to the smell. We planned to camp 4 more nights (traveling back to TX) but had to stay in hotels. The tents may not ever be able to be used again.
Stay for the day and fish, swim, and enjoy the playground.

Great spot, incredible wildlife in the area and affordable. However, with the wind going (and it will blow a lot here) you'll be sucking in everything the cattle feed lots can give you from the surrounding area.
There is so much particulate in the air here that at night your flashlight reflects back at you. Still, beautiful if you can stomach the smell.

Beautiful county park and lake in middle of farmland (a few breezes confirmed but not bad). There are kayak rentals and a boat launch but we just rested. On our way to Shoshone Falls then hitting the road to Oregon!

We were traveling through on our way to Salt Lake City and wanted a quiet campground away from I-84. This park is on a small lake SE of Twin Falls along Hwy 30. Highway 30 travels in the same direction as the interstate so we didn't feel like the park was too far out of the way. It is primarily an agricultural area with lots of farm truck traffic but still quiet. We were the only campers on an October weeknight.
The sites are gravel/dirt. The sites are okay width but short enough that we had to unhook our 20 foot trailer and park the truck sideways. We were off-level by half a bubble. We had 30A electric and water but no sewer hookup and the park has no dump. Site 21 has a nice lake view.
There were lots of birds on the lake including cormorants, western grebes, pied-bill grebes, seagulls, terns, loons and asstd ducks. There is also a large roost of red wing blackbirds nearby. Great fun to watch! There were also a lot of flies...annoying but did not bite.
