Customer Reviews
This adorable state park of ours is so quiet and filled with lush trees (summer of course), a Great Lake to fish upon, nature trails, provided fire out and bbq. And I hear an amazing disc golf set up. We have camped here 2x with the first being in the late summer and the 2nd in early spring. Summer was great and we caught lots of small mouth bass, the spring was too early and super windy. We were hoping for fresh bass to catch but alas the weather had other plans. We still had a lucky time no matter.
Gorgeous State Park right on the Snake River next to a hydro electric plant. Great walking paths with overlooks at beautiful points and good bird watching areas on the River. Many picnic tables & pavilions for events with grills. Frisbee Golf throughout the picnic area and plenty of restrooms. Mule Deer roam these grounds and White Pelicans call this home in the spring & summer. The campground sites are picturesque and close to the public launch site for boating access to the river & trail head to the Birding Trail. Home to a National Wildlife Refuge. This relatively small State Park packs in a lot!
Such a beautiful oasis this park is!! We've been here 3 years in a row because we absolutely LOVE it here. Rv, tent or cabin rental...it's a beautiful place to stay!!
Park is very beautiful and well maintained. Campground is clean and pleasant, views are great. We had site #15, a lakefront pull through site that fit our 40’ fifth wheel easily. Love the natural surroundings and everything here, two days is just too short.
A beautiful State Park with lots of walking paths and grass and the water was awesome 👌 we saw a lot of wildlife as well!
