Peaceful RV Stay with Country Charm—Just Minutes from Twin Falls
Enjoy a relaxed, rural escape on private acreage with sweeping views, starry skies, and friendly animals. We’re a young, working couple offering a welcoming stay just 7 minutes from I-84 and Twin Falls—close to local gems like Shoshone Falls, Snake River Canyon, Centennial Park, and farm-to-table dining.
Our rates are a fraction of what local RV parks charge, and we offer great value with real country charm. This is our home, not a commercial campground—so while we take pride in our space, we keep it simple and genuine.
What to Expect
- Country landscaping with native plants and pollinator-friendly “weeds.” Goathead stickers are common in rural Idaho.
- Shaded areas, open skies, and seasonal views of horses grazing.
- Yardwork happens around our schedules and between guests.
Garden & Fruit
From July to October, guests may enjoy cherries, raspberries, apricots, peaches, plums, pears, and apples—depending on weather and timing. Just ask before picking, as not all fruit may be ripe or reachable.
RV Site Options
- Site 1: Full hookup with 50amp (30amp converter available) and water.
- Site 2: Covered RV Bay with 30amp and water—fits big rigs and slide-outs.
All sites are back-in only—please plan accordingly.
Utilities
- $35/night covers water, power, trash, and access to a shared half-bath.
- No generators allowed out of courtesy for all guests.
Pets
Well-mannered dogs and horses welcome. The property isn’t fenced—please leash or supervise your dog. Our friendly pups may greet you, but we’re happy to keep them in if needed.
Shared Bathroom
A clean half-bathroom is located in our workshop. It’s optional and may be in use while we work nearby.
Connectivity & Hospitality
Good cell service, flexible check-ins, and a laid-back vibe. We’re nearby if you need us—otherwise, enjoy the peace and privacy.
We welcome RVs, tent campers, and travelers with animals seeking a peaceful stay away from the crowds. Questions? Message us—happy to help!

The Retreat Juniper Tent/Van sites sit at the base of Green's Mountain nestled among the Junipers and Pinion pines. You will stay just outside the entrance to the City of Rocks National Reserve off the road that connects it to Castle Rocks State Park.
Enjoy all the fun of camping under the stars with an amazing secluded location at the entrance to the City of Rocks. Enjoy Rock Climbing, Bouldering, Hiking, Biking, Fishing, and Hot Springs, all within a 5 minute drive! The Park is full all summer but you will have your own quiet base camp 2 minutes away. Sit around the fire pit at night and gaze at the amazing star filled sky. Sites 8, 9, and 10 are all in the same private forested area and great for groups but still separated for plenty of privacy.
Each site has a level tent pad, parking area for a car or van (car/van camping ok), and access to potable water, bathrooms, and garbage. We have now added a 15amp plug to each site to provide power for things like phone and laptop charging, air pump, medical devices, or other basics at no charge. Camper vans, or other vehicles that want to plug in to the power will need to pay an additional $10/day electric fee. No EV charging. Only 1 Camper Van per site. Parking is allowed right at camp but no vehicles bigger than a van (20ft), and no trailers. No mosquitos here! PET FRIENDLY!
This land has been in our family over 100 years. The Retreat has the closest campsites to the City of Rocks.

Glamping at it's finest!
Fall asleep to the sound of a rushing creek in this charming and secluded yurt.
Enjoy outdoor dining next to a seasonal waterfall, and watch butterflies and hummingbirds in our wildflower garden during the summer.
