Rock Creek RV Park

We stayed 1 night in early September..... The place looked lovely in all the reviews.

The upper area is much nicer, but the only sites left were very unlevel. We ended up in a back in on the lower level, with a huge retaining wall behind us. True, we had elec and water, but our rig lacks AC, and the temperature was in the upper 90s, with no shade. The campground and lovely park, are a reclamation project. I believe that part of it was a quarry, plus it had been used as a dumping ground. At any rate, it is unnaturally lower than the surrounding landscape, and even though there was a breeze topside, we just sweltered in the shade of our awning. The cement wall behind us radiated heat even after the sun went below the rim.

On the positive side, it was on our route south, easy to find, and reasonably priced. At dusk we were able to stretch our legs, and walk the dog along the lovely paved path. On our walk we read the informative plaques of the prior history of the park.

There are already 19 reviews here, so I'll just add a few things.

The first section you come to is more picturesque and private than the second section, which has an ugly wall propping up the cliff, and two lanes of campsites. In the first section, choose a site as far down as possible, because they rent out the picnic pavilion, and there were noisy family reunions or birthday parties there on both Friday evening and Saturday.

Water pressure was very low, and variable. Sometimes it was adequate, but on three mornings I had to use my water pump and water from my tank to take a shower.

Verizon 4G was excellent, with 5 bars, -89 dB, 11 Mbps down and 16 up.

I recommend The Barber Shop at Gehrig, Dale & Co, where I got a good $12 haircut from a very friendly barber with a uniquely-decorated salon. Walmart has by far the cheapest gas, and there is a propane refill station when you turn left on Hwy 93. I dumped my tanks for free at Twin Falls Dump Station.

We loved staying here! We were looking for somewhere close that we could explore around twin falls and this was perfect! We were worried about finding a spot in the middle of July but there were plenty of sites available. So nice to be able to run the ac! There is a nice walking path along the creek, a playground for kids, and covered picnic tables although they aren’t directly at each site. The vault toilets were clean and stocked with tp.
Getting there was interesting because of the plain dirt lot at the top of the hill but if you follow the sign you’ll see the little oasis tucked away in the canyon!
If for some reason you are not confident in taking your rig up and down hills I would not recommend coming here, though we had no issues

Very nice county park in a canyon along a rushing creek with walking trails and close access to local sites. We stayed in site 1 (back in) with our 32’ TT and it was much quieter than the other side of the park where there are out 6-7 pull throughs that were mostly full and had more road noise from above. Only complaint is no picnic tables hence the 4 star review instead of 5 stars. Stayed here Sun-Wed.

This RV Park was a unique experience. It's located in a canyon about 100 feet below the surrounding area so you don't see it until you get down the entrance road. There are two sections, the first more suited for smaller rigs and the second for the big ones. The first section is nicer if you can fit. Since it is also a local park you feel like you're camping in the park, with occasional heavy traffic. But it's a beautiful, well maintained park at a reasonable price with water and electric. I had poor AT&T coverage.

Put Rock Creek RV park in your gps and not Rock Creek Park or your GPS will take you to a dead end in the middle of a neighborhood- or use the coordinates provided above, they go to the right place.

This park is beautiful- lush green grass, paved walking trail, disc golf course, creek with multiple bridge crossings, lots of picnic areas and playgrounds.

We were there from Sunday to Tuesday and the park was quiet with very few day users- although it was a bit rainy so not sure if that is the norm of not. Spots were about half to three quarters full when we were there.

Electric, water worked great, site was pretty level, had great cell service.

Be sure to go to Shoshone falls, walk the canyon rim trail and watch the base jumpers at Petrine bridge. If you have time go up towards Hagerman and do the hike in box canyon springs- it’s amazing!

Don’t let the approach scare you. The downhill grade is very doable, just stay to the right as there is no guardrail on the left.

There are two sets of parking sites. The first set is not as level as the second, but the views, IMHO, are better. The power and water was good at our site.

There are gas and grocery stores pretty close to the park. The dump station is about a mile away on Washington St. and it has fresh water, good dump stations, two lanes and easy access.

This is a wonderful little county park and they have done a good job with it and the dump station.
