The best beach camping near Rexburg

·
The small city of Rexburg sits on the southeast side of Idaho. This city is a popular staging area for travelers headed to Yellowstone National Park. It's just over the state border in Wyoming. Grand Teton National Park, also in Wyoming, is less than two hours away. If you're looking for a unique way to relax, hit Green Canyon Hot Springs east of the city. Here you'll find mineral pools that go up to 105 degrees. Tent camping spots and RV hookups are available on the outlying grounds. Travelers coming through via RV often choose Wakeside Lake RV Park. The lakeside location allows for excellent swimming and fishing. You can even rent a kayak or paddleboard for some more water fun. Snake River RV Park in nearby Idaho Falls is another good option for RV drivers. Mountain River Ranch in Ririe offers full RV hookups, cute cabins, and tent camping. Anglers shouldn't miss a chance to cast a line in the ranch's teeming rainbow trout pond.

2.2mi from Rexburg · 5 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Teton Corners has been a favorite fishing and stayover spot for generations, and we felt we should step up and adopt it since we didn't want to see it developed, ripped apart or closed off. Know that by staying here, you are helping preserve this small piece of natural beauty in Idaho. It may not be the biggest preserve, but you have to start somewhere. Come stay a night! Learn more about this land: Come to our riverside getaway at Teton Corners. This 3 acre peninsula into the Teton River provides amazing trout fishing right from your tent door (licenses issued just 1 mile down the road). This gorgeous nature area is minutes from town, with easy access to HWY20 and HWY33. Deer, moose, bald eagles and osprey frequent the area year round, as well as beaver, waterfowl and night owls. RV dumps right down the road, as well as a 27 hole golf course, if that's your thing. Or just relax, dip your feet in the Teton River and listen to the water pass by. Note: River levels fluctuate over the season. We've tried to take pictures of all water seasons for reference.

National forest 40mi from Rexburg · 469 sites
You’ll want to allow yourself plenty of time to take advantage of all that Targhee National Forest has to offer. On several million acres, waterfalls cascade down volcanic cliffs, and crystal clear pools provide some of the best cutthroat trout fishing in the world. Rafters and tubers frolic in the shadows of the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone, and the smell of campfires makes you feel like an Oregon Trailer. Ancient rock formations sprout wildflowers, providing a scenic spot to boulder or rock climb, and Big Spring & Palisades Reservoir boasts over 70 miles of shoreline to bask in the sun after a long day of hiking. Two of the trails here access the high-altitute Alaska Basin, as well as trails in Grand Teton National Park. You’ll also be right next to the city of Idaho Falls, perfect for stocking up on the essentials before a full day of exploring grizzly bear habitats and karst limestone formations, all under the watchful eye of the snow-peaked Tetons!
