Time frame: We camped early August Tuesday-Thursday.

Our experience was awesome. Each camp site is a decent size, and we were 1 of 2 families camped there during our time. There is a creek with direct access to the river (50 yards down) directly behind our camp site. The river was really only busy for a short time during late afternoon, as the floaters passed through. All in all, our time there was very peaceful and relaxing.

The wild horses came through the pasture at the front of the site every day we were there. Once they began to come through the campground, but were pushed off by the other family looking to try to pet them. We were told that this isn't a guarantee and that we got lucky. We enjoyed walking to the edge of the pasture and enjoying them from a distance.

Traffic:

It is Pocatello deep in a local traffic area, however, its worth mentioning that there were quite a few people that come by to fish and just mill around the river area during the day. I would for sure make sure to secure belongings if leaving the site for any period. We had no issue with anyone though, and they were reapectful of camp sites.

Facilities:

There is an outbuilding there as well, which is great, but when the wind hits right, it gets overpowering pretty quick. That would probably be the worst thing about the whole area (but worth it for the girls to have that amenity).

The area is remote enough that there is quite a bit of wildlife activity after dark. We had families of raccoons that continually tried to get at food and trash throughout the night. We brought sealable containers and put them up at night. We put the trash on the hood of the truck and had no problems with them actually getting into anything.

There is no trash service or bin in the area at all, so be prepared to bring out everything you bring in.

Firewood is scarce, so it would be wise to bring that in as well. They sell it in town.

We were not disappointed at all, loved our time there, and will for sure go back!
