RV parks in Idaho

We are in Bryce Canyon Utah and will be heading to Idaho tomorrow.. We'll be traveling on HWY 84 to Boise and up to Coer d Alane via hwy 55.
Any suggestions on nice rv parks along the way especially once we get to Coer D Lane.. We have a 32ft MH and pulling a toad.. for over night stops we look for pull thrus and at least electric and water..

We are planing on traveling for 6 weeks so any nice area and good parks mean we stay for a while although for long stays we would like full hook-ups..

Also any suggestions on what to see and do would be appreciated.. Boat lake tours, trolly tours etc. that we might enjoy.

Thanks
Barb

  • BOISE - Hi Valley (actually in Eagle).

    Coeur d' Alene - Blackwell Island.
  • We came thru Moab on hwy 191 and had a hard time googling for a campground but found that there are two in Green River, UT. One is a KOA but we stayed at the Good Same park instead just because I don't like KOA's. It was around $30 for a pull thru with water/electric. Really sparse as far as shade and grass went.

    I'm not recommending it but I'm telling you that they are there. There is a lot of NOTHING for a long long way between Green River and Salt Lake City. Beautiful scenery but not much else. Be sure to Gas up in Green River. The grade isn't steep but it's a steady pull to Salt Lake City. If the wind is holding you back it's a fuel eater.

    After Salt Lake City it gets sparse again real quick. NO SERVICES for miles. Everything was nice and green so the dust wasn't bad. There's plenty of smoke coming from Eastern Oregon so the air was gray north of Salt Lake City... but I did not smell smoke so it wasn't all that bad.

    We just came through there four days ago.
  • We stayed at Heyburn Riverside RV Park Heyburn, Idaho
    You can call them for a reservation. Pull thrus were big, wide and level.
    Awesome river walk - quiet NICE place to stay.
    It's a city campground but it's a Good Sam Park, too.
    Full hookup was $21.00

  • As you drive through Boise you'll soon come to Caldwell. Ambassador RV Park is about a mile off the interstate - has long pull-thrus, manicured grass between the sites, pool, clubhouse, nice laundry and private bathrooms with very clean showers.

    There's also a Flying J fuel station and Denny's restaurant at the interstate. It's an excellent RV park for a stopover. Have a great trip!
