Being owned and managed by Idaho Power, it is very ADA and handicap accessible with a combination of concrete and steel boat docks. Because the camping here is fee-based, it is usually best to reserve a spot online before you go. Each pullout is designed for RV or tent trailer camping but is easily tent capable. The downside of spending time here is the lack of any form of shade or cover, so bring... Being owned and managed by Idaho Power, it is very ADA and handicap accessible with a combination of concrete and steel boat docks. Because the camping here is fee-based, it is usually best to reserve a spot online before you go. Each pullout is designed for RV or tent trailer camping but is easily tent capable. The downside of spending time here is the lack of any form of shade or cover, so bringing a canopy is almost always a must. Each site has a picnic table and a fire pit, and there are several group sites as well. This location is known for Trout, Catfish, Perch, and Sturgeon. But is mainly known for Crappie fishing. During the summer, you will very likely find a large group of people fishing off of the boat docks at all hours of the night. Many are from out of town, some of which travel from out of state to fish for Crappie in this location.

You can reserve online through Idaho power and more then likely a third party site. No power, water is available a a couple of public hosebibs. No dump site but there is one about 2 miles east at a WMA. We ussually stay on the waters edge and away for the boat launch. Be careful when booking some spots offer very little shade. Also in the summer it can get super hot and if fishing is good the dump... You can reserve online through Idaho power and more then likely a third party site.

The great part about this campground is you can stay on the shore of a great fishery and explore to small towns like Bruneau and others where you can get some worms and a ice sandwich.

dirt camping with RV sized spots. No electric, shared drinking water, pit toilet (they were clean), trash was ripe. Good fishing lake! Also, lots of wind in the afternoon.
