City of Rocks Campground is moated by the City of Rocks, an amassing of monoliths and escarpments towering sixty stories tall, and the campground itself should be equally as high on anyone’s must-camp list.

Offering myriad of campsite styles, from equestrian to RV-hookup styles, City of Rocks Campground is a mecca for the endurance-minded backpacker. But, aside from the calf-straining footpaths, we can only imagine that this place would be a state-side holy grail for nature photographers. Really thought, just look those rock faces: spellbinding, blemish-free.

Pheasant Acres (Runyon Ranch)

1 site · RV3 acres · Heyburn, ID

Looking for a stopover place with plenty of parking space? Maybe our site will be a match for you and your RV! (If your rig is not fully self-contained, please note that we do not offer facilities of any kind. You will need a privacy tent for your own portable restroom.) Our house and shop and a few other outbuildings sit on 3.5 acres on a dead-end dirt lane, and we have space we'd be open to sharing with you. We have updated our listing (May 2024) to accommodate your preferably-fully-self-contained unit in our side yard area only (because of irrigation timing in the back-yard area, we are no longer offering that area for your stay). Your parking/dry-docking space in our side yard boasts several large trees and some shade. There are some branches to navigate but there is ample space to choose your perfect spot. The site runs alongside our driveway so our vehicles will obviously be visible from your parking spot but there is plenty of room there for your extra vehicle(s) in our driveway as well. This spot has very little privacy because it is set back from our dirt lane and in between our home and our neighbor’s shed (but they are family). But it is peaceful and safe (and we are very close to "town" and all the conveniences of such). Being almost next to the Snake River, and having a natural marsh just to the North of our property, mosquito repellant is highly recommended during certain times of the year. We are just a few miles (5 mins or so) from the freeway, Walmart, restaurants, and public access to the Snake River (boating, fishing, swimming), and golfing. We have three friendly dogs (lab, Yorkie, pug-chihuahua) but we have an underground fence system so they will generally be out of your area (with a few exceptions) and most likely in our house much of the time. (Must love dogs. ♥️) IF YOU HAVE DOGS, please keep them on a leash and clean up after them appropriately, thanks!

The City of Rocks is a special place. Beautiful stars. Moose, mule deer, amazing sunrises & sunsets. Trails to hike for days! The nights get bitter cold! BITTER COLD due to the wind that pics up at night. Camping spots are well spaced out. You really cant go wrong with any one of these spots.

Magical little out of the way place in the south central Idaho high desert. Popular for rock climbing, some mountain biking, trail running, bird watching. Get a homemade pizza at Rock City Mercantile in town and the best remote beer selection ever. It's hot in the summer, but perfect in spring and fall.

One of the most gorgeous places I have ever camped, and that was when I was only 11 years old. Huge sites, I could boulder and scramble on the gorgeous rock within the perimeter of mine. Beautiful wilderness to explore and great rock climbing.
