Beautiful and well maintained

We visited for opening weekend, Memorial weekend 2014. Even though all sites were full, we felt we had plenty of space between us and the neighbors. Reservations are a must for most weekend.

Electric hook up worked perfectly. Water was flowing, but we didn't connect it to the RV as we didn't need to. The picnic area was flat and marked off with timbers. It was a large square size with plenty of room for the picnic table, an additional folding table, at least 6 - 8 camp chairs and an additional charcoal grill. There was also room for the dog bed and a kid play area.

The RV pad was gravel at our site (110). Some are dirt. Be sure to check the website for info. Our site was fairly level. The low hanging branches were trimmed so we didn't have trouble backing in our 35' 5th wheel.

The public bath house was cleaned and stocked, but I would expect that on opening weekend.

There were activities in the activity center for both kids (making a bird nest from local materials) and adults (talks on endangered birds). The hiking trails were well marked and maintained. The view from the top lookout was amazing. Highly recommend to either hike or drive to the overlook.

Boat ramps were opened and accessible. Small sandy beach access for kids. Other small sandy beach access for pups.

Awesome family park. Many kids, dogs, seniors and families. Good for hiking, mountain biking, nature walks, fishing, boating and relaxing.

On Beautiful Payette Lake

Only the Aspen loop was open at this time of the year. Sites are large; each has a table and a fire ring and lots of space. Double sites are available. The ponderosas are very tall and provide lots of shade, but there are openings and you can sit in the sun, if you wish.

I only rated it 3 stars because the bathrooms were truly yucky. The concrete floors looked like they hadn't been cleaned for weeks and the showers were just too yucky to use. I don't know if it's because it's just a week before they close for the season, but there is no way I wanted to use the bathrooms, and I am usually not that fussy.

As with so many other ID parks, there is an honor box at the entrance. Choose your campsite. Pay with a check or cash. No reservations after September 1.
