Nice campgrounds, really busy with transient visitors piling in to go to the hot springs. Many spots of fire damage along either side of the valley.

Oh how would have loved to stay for several more days! Bonneville camp ground had nice sites, plenty of room for our pair of tents. This is the perfect camp to listen to the river and the wind blow through the trees, while watching butterflies and chipmunks. The camp host was a kind older man with a playful sense of humor.

This is an especially nice camp considering the proximity to the hot spring. It sure is nice to be able to night cap at the hot springs and also to get up for the sun rise at the hot spring.

Campgrounds here were closed when I walked through and still snowed under but the trail to the hot springs on the back side was do-able. I really enjoyed making my own spot to soak using the river rocks to decide how hot or cold I wanted it! No one else around but one wolf I saw through the trees so I was able to soak alone without clothes changing issues! Highly recommended as this is past “Kirkh...

Highly recommended as this is past “Kirkham” the supposed “place to go!” Yea...screw that noise.

Nice campground next to a river. A short hike away is a hot spring that flows down into the river. At the river are some pools that you can sit in the mixed, warm water. We were prepared with our swim suits to go sit in the pools, but other felt swim suits were optional. We weren't part of that thinking so we missed out on enjoying the pools of water next to the river.

Fantastic campground with hot springs 1/4 mile in. The camping sites are very long, some more narrow than large but very nice, with shade, water and restroom close by. Very family friendly.

The park truly lives up to its name. The campground is quiet and gated. The sites are large and spacious, making the stay comfortable and relaxing, a big plus compared to many RV parks. We chose a Casita site out of personal preference but the regular ones were equally nice. The amenities are spotless: clean, modern laundry rooms (working with credit card) and private bathrooms, all clearly very... The park truly lives up to its name. The campground is quiet and gated. The sites are large and spacious, making the stay comfortable and relaxing, a big plus compared to many RV parks. We chose a Casita site out of personal preference but the regular ones were equally nice. The amenities are spotless: clean, modern laundry rooms (working with credit card) and private bathrooms, all clearly very well maintained. The location is excellent as well, with direct access to the Idaho Falls Greenbelt Trail, perfect for walking or biking along the river. The owner was genuinely kind and welcoming, which really added to the experience. We checked out the other campground in town, and the difference was day and night. The slightly higher price here is completely justified.

Beautiful rv park right in the heart of town and tucked away next to the Snake River. We had a pull-through spot which was very nice, very long and almost perfectly level. The hookups were not only easy to use but also very pretty. The host is great too! It's a little loud in the morning when you can hear vehicles on the main road, but we would definitely stay here again.

This place was great in the winter! They have little huts at certain sites that have heaters and chairs! It is conveniently located to the downtown area and it backs right up to the green trail so you can actually walk to downtown. Security is great, everything locks and the bathrooms are individual units, so no one is in your space if you need to use their showers. Winter is a little shut down, b...

Security is great, everything locks and the bathrooms are individual units, so no one is in your space if you need to use their showers. Winter is a little shut down, but it looked like they had picnic tables for use and bikes to rent. The river behind the park had lots of ducks/geese and other birds. The trains do run during the night- but not too bad.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean, manicured and well maintained, full grass and asphalt RV park. Large parking sites with well located power, water and sewer hookups. Lighted dog run area. Great location, easy access to town and freeway. Full hookups even though cold weather has started. Bathroom was very clean. Park access to local trail system was very nice.

Stayed here end of Feb overnight on our way back to Canada. Office was closed upon arrival but everything in place with a welcome package. It's a smaller park but the extras put in place( picnic table, stone fireplace) at each lot put other parks to shame. Paved lot and pad. Nice big pull through sites.
