Lud Drexler Park

Stayed here overnight 9/29/20 on the way to South Dakota. Had to loop thru Rogerson twice to find the road to the CG. Once that was through... easy goin'. Lock box was locked up, reason for the 0 dollars. Rough but adequate sites, but ooh the flies. I've been in stables and s**t houses that don't even come close. They were gone by sundown but I don't think I've ever seen so many. Surprisingly pretty location by the reservoir for as flat as the area is but BRING THE FLYSWATTER.

Stopped here on way south to NV because there wasn't much free camping to be found on the route. Unfortunately it was during the massive western fires and the horizon was smoky. Couldn't really see anything but smoke, scrub brush, and lots of flies. The flies were horrible. Half the campground was under construction - should be nice later. There is a dump station, which is nice. There were only 2 sites left at 4pm and the last one was taken by an RV behind me. The rest of the open CG was full of fishermen and invisible men in camo from head to toe in muddy trucks - assume hunters as Idaho allows everything to be killed in early fall for some reason. The road in was in good shape, but it's far to drive if you were to find it full - so I wouldn't try it after 4 pm in hunting season. I'm full-time and carry multiple wireless routers so see that section for internet info.

I stopped here for a Friday night on my way south into Nevada. It was peaceful and about half-occupied that night, but I was told it usually fills on the weekend with fishermen and boaters from Twin Falls. It was just a basic, aged and rather dilapidated BLM campground, but in a beautiful location by a reservoir, canyon and dam. In addition to the campground, there was a large parking area beyond that would accommodate more RVs, and there were RVs down at the boat dock. Part of the campground was closed, where they appeared to be installing or renovating sites with electric hookups. The road in from US-93 was in good condition.

The nightly rate is $5. I paid $2.50 with my NPS senior pass.

I had 2 bars of Verizon 4G, with 12 Mbps down and 3 up.

Have stayed here 4 times, overnights only and can't imagine staying longer unless fishing. Sites are back in and few are really compatible for more than a small trailer or MH and half of these are backwards (patio opposite side of the shelters)...a layout that BLM seems to favor. The shelters are newer and nice, but everything else is worn out. There's not been water on any visits.

We loved our stay here...honestly if our travel schedule didn't have us in a hurry we would have like to stay a week. There were several open sites to choose from. Less that would accommodate our 35' TT, but still several easy options with a view. The 7 mile trip from the main highway was an easy paved road and despite raining most of the day we had no issue with the unpaved roads at the campground.
We saw many day users fishing near the boat launch and we hiked across the dam for a little exercise. Really a beautiful area with strong and fast Verizon signal.

Seven (7) miles outside the little town of Rogerson and at the Salmon Falls Dam, this campground has 10 sites, available potable water and a dump site. Located on Salmon Falls Creek Reservoir there is an excellent boat ramp with docks. Camping costs are $5 per night ($2.50 for us elderly with the Golden Age Pass), 14 day limit. This is a BLM facility. Cell service is 3 bars with Verizon. I am writing this in my RV using a wi-fi hotspot.
