Nine miles out from Virginia Idaho means you are smack dab on top of the Hawkins Reservoir Campground. And that’s a really good thing. Hopefully you didn’t forget your canoe or the fishing rods! Pack the picnic basket to the brim for this one—you’ll want to stay for days. Read more...
Make a beeline for the Pipeline Recreation Site where you’ll find a few cool, shady campsites along Snake River.

It's a small campground, but it's got a lot of heart. Read more...

Look out at Gull Island where you’ll see the largest n Read more...
Hot springs, ooh la la! Maple Grove Campground is just a short trip away after an evening soaking up those warm, natural minerals.

The choice between cold water and hot water is Read more...
If you’re makin’ the short trip from Preston and wanted to stay along the Bear River, Redpoint Recreation Site has got you covered.
