“Park rundown, bathrooms closed, Lake Walcott Dam siren went off many times!”

All bathrooms I saw were closed. Many trees had been removed or had fallen. The disc golf course was ok, but without directions, tough to know where the next hole was.

All bathrooms I saw were closed. Many trees had been removed or had fallen. The disc golf course was ok, but without directions, tough to know where the next hole was. The Lake Walcott Dam siren was blasted many times during the day, starting at 7:00 am. The place has been neglected. I would not stay here again and left after only one night. Drive to Castle Rocks and like it here!

This was one of those places you end up at after a long drive and no real other prospects seemed better. Last day of March and the park wasn’t busy and no real color or flare to it since nothing blooming or leafing out yet.

This was one of those places you end up at after a long drive and no real other prospects seemed better. Last day of March and the park wasn’t busy and no real color or flare to it since nothing blooming or leafing out yet. We were in a completely self contained unit but charged full price as well as the restrooms were closed and had to pay out of state fees as well as a park pass. Only positive was it was quiet. Also a bit off the beaten path.

We stayed here for two nights on our way to other places. A little off the highway but so quiet and peaceful. The campground was clean and the bathrooms were immaculate.

We stayed here for two nights on our way to other places. A little off the highway but so quiet and peaceful. The campground was clean and the bathrooms were immaculate. Saw deer and other animals throughout the park. Walking paths around the lake and enjoy kayaking and boating. Be prepared for bugs.. you are out in the wilderness. Beautiful Shoshone Falls (definitely worth seeing) is not far from here as well as the snake river and beautiful Twin Falls.

Campsite was great, day use areas are amazing! Miles of paths around the path great for walking and riding. Bugs are NOT an issue, they only come out at night. Overall great park!

We stopped here for a couple days because it was en route between other destinations. I think this would be a better fall or spring spot and I'd skip it altogether if you don't fish or kayak (there's no swimming at the lake).

I think this would be a better fall or spring spot and I'd skip it altogether if you don't fish or kayak (there's no swimming at the lake). Summertime + water meant there were a lot of bugs, so we spent a lot of our time indoors, but we did enjoy watching the birds from our trailer and even saw a huge jack rabbit one evening.

Nice small campground. Water and restrooms are not available in winter months which is until May at this campground. Beautiful walking paths all threw the park. Boat ramp that is a happening place on the weekend with anglers. Kayaked the lake which was lovely with an abundance of bird watching.
