We booked two sites with full hookups for 40 foot rigs with 50 amp hookups. We booked this in November for a July trip. When we arrived they had no sites to accommodate a 40 foot RV. So we ended up it in two sites without sewer and 30 amp plugs only. The sites are ridiculously close together with zero privacy and along the river it was difficult to back in because they had large trees just randomly planted in the roadway.
Our site had no table in it. When we told a park employee he said “he would go check”. We never heard from him again. So just never has a table or place to sit. Also, it’s incredibly dusty. Just a garbage place to stay all around. We won’t be back.

This campground has a very unreasonable NO REFUND policy. They require all but one night of your stay up front, and will not refund for any reason. I’ve not encountered another park with a policy so customer-unfriendly. People have life events - family deaths, break downs on the road, etc. I would not recommend this park to anyone, even though the location is convenient.

Located next door to an expo center & fairgrounds. Nightly fireworks that are so close you can almost feel the sparks raining down! Extremely upsetting to pets! The percussion blasts were so strong our automatic awnings came in!! Next there’s the flood lights from the parking lot. Had to keep our night shades closed at sunset as the lights were blindingly bright! How they pack people in here amazes me! Guess everyone is here for the horse racing etc next door. At least we think that’s what all the yelling was about all day. Not all sites have sewer so make sure you ask if you dare to stay at the noisiest campground in America!!

We had a nice partially shaded spot backing up to the local bike path/river. Partial hookups, quiet park. Great for an overnight - pretty close to downtown Boise where we went for dinner out (highly recommend). Easy in and out. Did not use bathrooms or laundry. Spot 14 backed up to the greenbelt.

We enjoyed our week here along the green belt. These sites are water and electric only. All other sites look to be FHU with a few dry camp options in the front. Several trees for shade, we were still able to connect to satellite (ask for that when you make your reservation, they work hard to make it happen). Level dirt site with picnic table and fire ring. Snug between sites but nice grass area behind.
Very quiet and dark at night, slept well with the windows open.
On departure day we had an issue with our large slide. The staff worked with us to extend our time. They have business cards for techs in the area and that found Locals RV Tech - Mike saved us!! Teeter and all the staff are wonderful and really add to the experience of staying here.
Their WiFi worked sometimes for us.
Easy access to Boise and the surrounding area. Restaurants and services all close by.

Campers BEWARE! From attempting to begin the booking process, the management at this establishment was clearly disorganized and unfit to run a campground. It took me several phone calls, physical visits, and multiple emails to actually book this stay. We were attempting to stay for the month of March and their website advertised $675/m from Nov.1-Apr.1 but when I FINALLY was able to speak with Toni, evidently the individual in charge, about what the rate would be, she said it was $1500 and that other rate only applied to 3 month stays or longer (at the time not clearly stated on their website). She worked the price down for me, which I appreciated but when my husband checked in, attempted to charge sales and lodging tax which cannot be charged with a month long stay as this then becomes classified as “rent”. They ended up dropping this charge and we continued on our merry way.
Upon checking in to our site, my husband voiced concerns regarding some tree branches hanging over our rig and didn’t look like it was in good condition which made us nervous. Their response was “well they all look that way” and offered no solution. When we began hooking up to utilities, their city water was leaking significantly. We shut off the water and immediately let them know as we did not want to waste resources. The next day they came by to assess and responded “they didn’t have the knowledge to fix the issue because they didn’t know where the shut off’s were” and left it at that. No repair, no offer to move our site.
Two weeks later, I noticed two $100 charges on our credit card account from the park. When we questioned the park about these charges, they told us that they were speeding fines but were unable to provide any documentation supporting the fines. When asked if they had any speed measuring devices, they said that they did not and that they watch the security camera to tell if people are speeding or not. A few days later, we asked for receipts and at this point, they became hostile and explosive, verbally assaulting my husband and extremely confrontational. They falsely accused my husband of making threats. At this point, they told my husband that they were trespassing us and we escalated to calling the police to settle the matter. We were able to settle the matter with the help of the police and they refunded us the remainder of our stay. Since then, other parks in the area have told us that they would not allow us into their park because of their affiliation with this park.
Avoid at all costs! Despite an incredible location, this experience has been an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE and continues to be so.

I pulled in on Jan 4, 2023. I had made reservation for 3 nights and at the time asked them for a back in, "green belt" site that is more private. I was very pleasantly surprised that they accommodated that request with site 12, right next to the little log cabin they have. There were folks all day & evening, walking, jogging & biking back and forth on the river walk, as did I with my dog. Trails were plentiful down to the river. I am not usually a fan of RV parks due to the close proximity of ones neighbor, but seeing as this was the dead of winter & I was in the area to trade in my Nissan Xterra tow vehicle for a new Jeep Gladiator I had ordered, I was very happy there. Boise is lovely. The RV park is very quiet & very little road noise. Showers were immaculate. However, it is next to the fair grounds. And I imagine that would be very noisy & busy during State Fair or other events there. The staff is super nice & I added an extra night so to avoid potential bad winter road conditions. They have propane there, too & I was able to top off my tanks as soon as I pulled in.

Assigned to site across from dump station and propane tank. Smelly and bad view. Dust in park is bad near the entrance (where dump is) due to lots of traffic. Site A1 has reverse polarity electrical problem (mentioned by others here going back 3 years) - they acted like they knew nothing of it. After much discussion they refunded our money as we wanted no part of this place. There are nice sites, just know where you are assigned. Know too that the sites are tight - you are literally only a few feet away from your neighbor.

First time in a high-density private RV "resort" and even though I was unsure, it was really nice. The staff was wonderful, the bathroom, showers and laundry room were SUPER clean (and cheap at $1.50 per load) and the bike rental was reasonable. Really good coffe a few miles down the Greenbelt Trail (Push and Pour) and a gorgeous ankle-deep gravel bottom side channel of the Boise river just behind the park across the trail. Trees, green grass and access to water really numbed the pain of the 100 degree weather. Gravel sites with concrete pads so you need to get your level on, but a Wonderful place to stay in Boise!

“Nonrefundable park”
noted 6/30/2023
Booked a 1 night stay here. Made reservations well in advance. Received a text receipt of the reservation but never received a confirmation. I called asking about the confirmation, but only had the invoice number as a reference. Was told they don't track reservations via invoice number. Finally found my reservation and told me I would get a text confirmation. Never got the confirmation.
Plans changed days in advance and left a voice message saying so. Again, no confirmation. I emailed and got a response that the reservation was cancelled but Boise Riverside RV Park is a nonrefundable park. I know that it is only $36, but no where on the website does the word nonrefundable appear. Not on the home page, reservations page or contact page. Since I never received a confirmation text message (I suspect nonrefundable is not on that document, if in fact they send confirmations).
I am not usually one to gripe, but at least tell me up front what to expect and I will accept the terms.
