Nice big sites, but Wi-Fi did not work except in office area. Rules regarding pets and quiet hours not enforced; dogs allowed to roam without leashes, noisy campers after 10pm. Would not stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great location in Boise, very convenient. Nice park has been updated from old-style side-by-side hook-ups, so you now get both sides of the utilities. We parked our 27' 5th wheel in one side and our truck in the other side which worked great as we were here to visit family. The park has no cable TV so had to rig up antenna etc., to get local channels. Good Wi-Fi signal. Very clean park, excellent bath house with showers and huge laundry area, lots of machines. Well run establishment and relatively quiet with pretty views of the greenbelt along the river. Access was easy off of a main avenue but you do have to go through a few miles of city streets from the interstate. We used a Garmin to navigate to the coordinates listed in the Trailer Life Directory. We will gladly choose this park over the one near the airport which had heavy road noise last time we were in Boise. Our cost was $28.42 with GS discount. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park gets a mixed review. Park is gravel with fairly level sites. Good gravel interior roads. Plenty of room for turns and good space between sites. Park your personal vehicle next to your RV in a spot that previously used to be another RV spot. Staff friendly/efficient but office closes at 5:00 with no apparent host on duty. Very little grass, and only at some spots. Adjacent property an eyesore (old horse stable for now defunct horse race track), but on the good side, park is located right on the Boise river Greenbelt path (25 miles in length.) Some unsightly RVs in what looks to be semi-permanent status. Laundry OK but could use some more cleaning during the day. Restrooms/showers generally clean but are accessed directly from laundry room with no door, only a shower curtain. We stayed here for about 12 days and would probably stay again as we didn't see anything better in the immediate area and the greenbelt access was a nice draw. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
I believe there was an ownership / name change. Good location on the green belt / Boise river. Friendly staff, clean sites but an odd old style layout. Water pressure was a bit low at 35 psi, power was solid, sites were level but ours was in the section where you had to disconnect. There was room to park next to the site. We did look into the laundry and it was very clean and quite a few washers and dryers. A nice place to stay while in Boise and fishing is a short walk away. We will stay here again when we return in 2012. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This has been renamed and reopened as Boise Riverside RV Park. Park is all gravel with some cement patios. Interior roads are good, sites are quite large, with room to park your truck alongside the back of rig. Staff is very friendly and helpful. We had problems getting TV signal and they moved us 3 times, (problem was us). Wi-Fi is smoking fast. We would return if in the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We choose this campground because of proximity to friends we were visiting and convenience to shopping, restaurants, etc. We were there for one week and were assigned a spot facing the bike path and Boise River which was very nice. Sites are small and close together and you have to park towed vehicle in very small space. Laundry and bath facilities were clean and well-kept. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The office and entrance are very well kept up. If you're only staying a day or week, you'll be assigned to the front row which is very near the greenbelt and Boise River and not bad if you don't look back. However each row behind deteriorates quickly. Staying a month, we were assigned a spot in row three. The trees were infested with aphids that accumulated on the roof and awning (two consecutive years) and the neighbors were not anyone you would want to engage: wearing ankle bracelets from some sort of arrest. The neighboring RV's were very run down: some being more than 30 years old. This is unfortunate as the park could be very nice if it would only cater to the travelling RV'er with stricter rules on who stays year-round. We will not stay there again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Gravel sites are small, built before the days of slideouts. Rate on the high side, even with a discount for paying in cash. Wi-Fi signal was weak, so we used the air card. Bath house facilities were clean, but unfortunately, locked from 10PM to 6AM daily. At least a third of the sites occupied by full time people. We did use the Boise River Greenbelt, a jogging/bike path that goes all the way across town. If not for that, we would stay elsewhere, for the price. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We were not able to stay here, but checked out the site and it is quite convenient to the baseball park, fair grounds and the Greenbelt bike trail. A fairly basic looking park, but in a great location. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Sites are small, rates are highish and no free internet. Also, while the washroom facilities were clean, toilets did not flush well and were frequently disgusting if the previous user did not take care and patience with them. The toilet/shower/laundry facility is neat and clean overall though. It is also locked, with no access to campers at all from 10PM to 6AM daily. The place is quite busy with most sites seemingly taken by full time residents who do frequent trips in and out during the course of a day making for rather heavy traffic. All in all, I'd rather not stay at this campground again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is one of the worst parks we've stayed in. The park is unkempt, with many long-term residents. Sites are ridiculously narrow, in fact, if you have slides, it's likely you won't have enough room to walk between sites. The management is not at all friendly. I would not recommend this park to anyone. We camped here in a Motorhome.
To confirm, this park has been replaced with condos. The previous post must have stayed at a different park and mis-posted. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very helpful management. Nice clean facility, in town. RVs pretty close to each other. Tent sites were very green. Motorhome sites gravel. Handy park if visiting Boise. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Probably a nice park at one time, but it is tired and old. Located on a very busy, noisy street. Plenty of long term residents with RV's which have particle board skirting, etc. You know the look. We checked the power at our site before hooking up and found some problem with the wiring. We decided to leave and find another place to stay for the night. The only reason to stay at this park is that you absolutely, positively have to stay in Boise for the night. Otherwise, forget about it. This park is old and yucky. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Easy freeway access. Close to shoping and eating. Free continental breakfast - although we
have never tried it. We use this campgroung several times a year and have never been disappointed. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice clean RV park with friendly people at check-in. Nearby to Walmart and lots of restaurants. We camped here in a camper.
A great place to stay while visiting the Boise area. A small park on the National Guard Base on the South side of the airport, the seven sites all have concrete pads and paved access. The sites are short for big rigs, but there's plenty of room to extend into the asphalt parking area. Good hookups and a free laundry down the street. There's a fair amount of airport noise during the day, but it's fairly quiet at night. Easy access from I-84, and big rigs will have no problem accessing the main gate. Verizon cell and air card worked well. No internet or cable available, but clear shot to satellites and good broadcast TV. Reservations recommended since you will need to pick up a key for the power box, either at the billeting office or the main gate if after hours. A bargain location. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Previous reports are on the ball for this park. Plenty of open overnight spaces. We have space 55 for the overnight. Coming down Hwy 55 put this park a couple of streets over, so easy access. The Wi-Fi (to me) wasn't worth the free one night tag as it is Tango and they have some of the worst Wi-Fi in the country. We used our Verizon with an amp and got 3 bars. We would stay here again when passing through. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The park is well set up and easy to use; however, my plans changed and I had paid for two nights but needed to leave only staying one night. The manager refused to refund the second night. October is hardly a high in demand month and there were plenty of empty spaces here on the weekday. They said they would credit me, but I will not be passing through here for the foreseeable future. My recommendation is only pay them one night at a time. This one night cost me $64.15 because of no refund. Not a good practice if they wish to have my or my friend's business. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Clean park. Good size, level gravel sites. Escort to site. Good laundry. Excellent Wi-Fi. Large pet walk outside park. Close to town. Friendly staff. Many permanents along periphery, but sites kept neat. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was an overnight stop for us and fit our needs. If we had been coming from the I-84 side of Boise this would have been way out of the way - it is easily 8 miles off the freeway through city streets & dozens of signal lights. As it is we were coming in from the Highway 55 side ( from McCall ) and it was easily accessible. Staff was friendly & helpful. Park is very clean. Short term sites are all pull throughs with picnic table, 50/30 amp, sewer, water & cable. The office staff also give you a code for free Wi-Fi - we got one code for each of our computers. The deal here is to stay for a month which is $345 plus electricity. There is plenty to do in and around Boise to justify a longer stay! We camped here in a Motorhome.
If this park were located closer to the freeway it would get a 10! This is a beautiful park, very well cared for and the staff is super. Wish it were closer to I-84, but we will definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We are full timers who came to Boise to explore this part of Idaho. We actually stayed at this park on two occasions. The first time in June for 18 days and then the whole month of July. The choice to stay here was because of it's proximity to West Vet for specialized treatment of our dog with health problems. After the first stay in June we came back here when new problems of the same nature developed and decided to stay the whole month of July to be sure the problems were resolved. We became one of those "permanents" that are identified in many reviews. I have been on both sides of this park, since the overnights are placed in specific rows to facilitate their moving in an out, while those of us with longer stays are in the back in sites around the perimeter. The staff here are hard working and very attentive to the park condition. There is constant maintenance going on, from gardening to watering, to mechanical work on utility pedestals. The park is neat, clean and none of the long term residents (some have been here 6 years or longer) leave clutter around their sites. The grass is mowed & edged 2 X each week, trees are trimmed on the spot if a rig needs extra clearance, all they have to do is ask. The overnight sites are a tad narrow, but they accommodate the largest rigs easily with wide swing room and well laid out streets. Propane service is prompt by asking in the front office and they have a fee for service ($5) dump site near the entrance for non residents. Internet is indeed Tengo Internet, but you can get a code for free connection for up to three days by asking. Cable TV is free to overnights and they have an excellent line up of channels available. It is in a quiet residential neighborhood about 6 miles from the freeway. Wal-Mart is 3 miles away and Home Depot is 1 mile away. Much more shopping is available on Eagle Road southwest of the park. Horseshoe Bend Road is a main through fare for the residential neighborhoods that surround the park during the day, but nigh time hours are pleasantly quiet. The main building contains the guest bathrooms and showers, and they are cleaned every day. They are immaculate. The rate quoted is for monthly cost divided by 30 days. The office staff are knowledgeable, helpful and will bend over backwards to assist any guest. I reserve the highest ratings for parks with greater number of amenities, but this one deserves recognition for a job well done. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Stayed Boise area for family wedding. This park was very well located for our needs. Very busy when we were here. Many full time/permanent rigs located throughout the park. Sites are fairly long and easy access, but not terribly wide. They do cram a lot of units on their property. Not our first preferred method of 'camping', but very adequate for our needs at the time. Wi-Fi worked very well, solid power/water. Didn't use bathrooms/showers as we use our own. Good Sam rate: stayed 4 days. We would stay again if in the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very nice, clean park and friendly, helpful staff. Pull through site was level. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Overall a very nice RV park located in a respectable residential neighborhood. Lots of shopping nearby if you are low on supplies. Only about 10 easy miles from downtown Boise. Access to the Boise River Greenbelt is 4 miles - a 25 mile long mile paved path for biking or pedestrian use. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They do guide you to your site and assist with parking. There are quite a few long-term tenants but the park is very well maintained. The main downside is they use TengoInternet for the internet connection. We always have problems with this service connecting to the internet and having a reliable connection. Also, there is some road noise from Horseshoe Bend Road. We would stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
There are a lot of permanent sites, but that doesn't appear to interfere with the "stop and go" RVers. It's a nice campground for overnight. The sites are very small pebbles with a cement slab and a small grass 'spot' just outside the door. I think if you have a big rig, you will have to watch where the sewer connections are located. We would stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
What a welcome site to finally find this place. We visited a horrible park down the street and were relieved when we found Hi-Valley. They were a bit difficult to find. Has nice clean, wide, grassy sites and very nice management. They helped us locate a great upscale Pub (Berdeneys) close by. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We haven't stayed in many RV parks but this is just about the best one we've found. I would give it a 10 if it had a hot tub/swimming pool. There's playground equipment for the kids but not a lot of activities. For the dogs they have an enclosed dog run to play with your dogs safely. There's a strip of grass right by your door for your dogs to use. Very friendly and helpful staff. We had damage to our trailer and arrived late after the office was closed. We found our assigned space and the paperwork. It included the code for the WiFi but not the code for the bathroom (our bathroom was non-op). We thought this had to be an over-sight and managed to find the correct code and all was fine. The bathrooms and showers were very nicely decorated, clean and bathmats were even provided. In the morning the staff were very helpful putting us in contact with folks to make repairs on our trailer. Our site was fairly level. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Park has been recently updated. The spots are VERY narrow. We had to stay very close to the the cement pad or risk running over the sewer connections on the left. There is a cement pad (sidewalk) beside the motorhome and a small patch of grass. It is an ok park for a couple of days. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a nice, clean park. There is a nice grassy area for kids to play and a small swing set thing. The concrete *patio* is pretty small as is the grass strip. We paid for a month but only stayed for 2 weeks. The reason? Cost is much less than a month and didn't pay additional for electric, although we would have had to if we stayed longer. The rate listed reflects the average cost. I have stayed here before and will again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great place for an overnight. Not a place for enjoying the outdoors. Sites mostly level. Door opened onto a four foot wide concrete sidewalk that served as our patio (no picnic tables). Next to that about two and a half foot strip of grass. All sites curbed. Though too narrow for our tastes, the campground was friendly, helpful, and and a good lay-over. Biggest downside - poor cable. We camped here in a Motorhome.
As a previous poster noted this is a very nice parking lot style RV park. Clean, friendly and helpful staff and wide roads. Sites were level, pretty wide and well tended. The dog walk is non existent and amounts to any alley way full of broken glass, debris and burrs. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Staff very friendly & helpful. Escorted to our site & assisted in set-up. Campsite was full but managed to find a site for us. I would recommend a reservation. This is a large park but has many long stay clients, and they also had a large group booked in. Whole park very clean & presentable, as were the washrooms & laundry facilities. We were staying only one night on our way home. Would stay there again. Good Sam rate $27.90 We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
One of the nicest parking lot-type campgrounds we've been in. It's northwest of Boise, closer to Garden City, so it's convenient if you're heading north to one of the scenic byways. The bathrooms were excellent, very clean and up-to-date The smallish showers could use a few more places to put stuff but the terrycloth bathmats are a nice touch. There's a large lending library, game room, fitness equipment, flat-screen TV in the rec room, also a bike/jogging path across the road. It was quiet at night. The Wi-Fi worked well and you get tons of cable TV channels. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here while visiting relatives and found the park to be very peaceful. The grounds were paved with gravel spaces. Each space had a small concrete padio and strip of grass. It rained several days park drainage was very good. Bathhrooms were very clean bath mats were provided. We camped in a 35' fifth wheel with three slides and had more than enough room. Park was very quiet at night. WiFi was very good at our space which was near the front. We would stay at the park again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice clean park, good sites, double sewer hookups which is nice. Sites are a little close, but a good stopping point between places. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Signage to campground was good. There is a specific area to park and register. Office staff was friendly and efficient. We were escorted to our site. Wide access roads with Level gravel, concrete and grass pull-through sites. The sites are slightly narrow if campground is full. Services are in good location for easy hook-up. There are very few trees. A good dog run but quite a way from sites. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very clean and well organized park. Easy in and out. Pull-thrus with full hook-ups. Wifi worked great and no cost. Cable TV and no cost. They have a dog run but it is a gate to the back behind the park and quite a ways from some of the sites. Some live-ins but very clean and orderly. Camping World about 10 miles away. Super Wal-mart about two miles down the road. Friendly and helpful office help. Would stay again if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very clean and orderly, but the sites only have a small strip of grass. But it's in a pretty good location to get to downtown Boise, and it is not on the interstate so it is relatively quiet. Large laundry unit, and a good rec room We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Clean and well maintained park. Gravel sites with a long concrete patio and a small plot of grass. Is located on the outskirts of Boise with ample shopping and dining in the area We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice park in a very quiet area with one exception. They have a few spots across from the dumpsters that had noisy. So if staying you might want to avoid sites 51 - 54 or 55. Lots of people pull up in trucks (large, usually diesel) to dump there trash. Starts about 6:00 am. Other than that a very nice park, great library. Wi-Fi is very robust, the best we have had in quite awhile. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Park is very well maintained. Site narrow with gravel base and small grass area along side each side. Lots of long term campers in spots but still plenty of spaces open. Would stay here again when we pass thru. Biggest problem is no sign on Hwy 95 for turnoff. We had a GPS that took us right here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Wide paved streets, gravel pull-throughs. Exercise equipment is not institutional quality -- treadmill stalled with 240 pound walker. Half of the park is occupied with long term folks, but they are well maintained. Dual sewer drains at each site to avoid long hoses. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Friendly and helpful staff, large pull-throughs, and very level pads are all parts of this park. This park is on the northern edge of Boise and off any main roads so it is very quiet. We would definitely camp here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice place. Gravel sites each with a concrete sitting pad and a small strip of grass between the sites. No picnic tables, and only a few trees. Excellent facilities and extremely friendly staff. We stayed here 4 nights and worked out on the treadmill in the rec hall when the weather tanked. We'd come here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is very neat and clean and quiet. We extended our stay because it was so nice. Wifi is pay, but there is a 3 day free trial available. Polite and friendly staff. Gravel sites with a concrete patio. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a wonderful campground. Friendly staff and well groomed facilities. We will stay again when in the Boise area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
All sites face north (so patio side is shaded in the evening. )Sites are large with concrete patios. The full-timers are in a separate part of the park. Lots of strict rules. The directions to this park published in travel directories could be greatly improved. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Certainly a nice campground, but not a ten. Overall very nice facilities, clean, neat, and well maintained including all the landscaping. Little details have a way of impacting the score. The rec room closed at 7pm. If nothing else this meant no computer modem availability. The trash dumpsters are left in open sight in a central location, no attempt made to hide them. The bathrooms, while modern and clean where not cleaned over the weekend, because some paper litter remained there on Saturday and Sunday. This criticism is by no means a condemnation of the park. Rather it is meant as constructive criticism and offer a way to offer an even better experience for all rv'ers. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Office staff is very friendly and helpful. Nice trees and grass at all sites. Laundry room is clean and not overpriced. Wi-Fi works well and able to get Sat service from the site I was at. Sites are level and long. Con's - Narrow sites. Right off the Hwy so you do get the noise from the Hwy. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice park but as others have said, it is tight maneuvering. Level pads, sites are a bit small. Nice location with easy access to the city. Water pressure is good, power is clean. The park is pet friendly, sort of. The manager is not a real dog lover and is a bit of a grass "nazi". My brother in law lives here and has witnessed rants over departed guests "ruining" the grass. He is a nice guy but a bit obsessed with the grass. We'll stay here again any time we are in Boise. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Clean park with paved sites, but very tight. Hard to find room for your tow vehicle if you have a big rig. Somewhat difficult to get in and out of site. Bathrooms clean. Laundry clean and reasonable. Highway noise but very little airport noise. Wi-Fi OK. No cable TV. Very convenient to downtown Boise. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed here for a big soccer tournament and it was fine. I was a little leery of noise, being between the airport and the interstate and it's all night construction, but it wasn't bad. The place was neat and well kept, albeit packed. The mens room had 2 showers and 1 stall, but it was clean. The fellow running the place was very nice. We would stay here again if in Boise (which is a terrific little city). We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Very nice park with trees and shade. Looked very nice. The only drawback was it was right on the freeway and very noisy. Road construction on top of the freeway noise made for a noisy night. Would probably not stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Sites are quite tight. Entry in and out of the park is very tight but doable. With the space allotted the site have to be pull thru's. WIFI was slow but was usable (about 10 times dial-up speed). Friendly service was provided. Neat and tidy surroundings. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This campground is clean and has paved sites. It does not have other amenities; however we found it very adequate for a short stay. For a big rig (ours is a 43 with tow) the roads to and from the sites are tight; but manageable. Power, water, sewer all good. Owner/manager very friendly and helpful. We were concerned that it would be noisy since it is located on Airport Road near the airport; however, it was very quiet We camped here in a Motorhome.
New park, nice and clean. All the sites have a grassy area, the hookups on each site has a little fence hiding them from the next site. I really liked that as I hate having to look at the next campers hookups and dump site from your picnic table. I was windy the night we were there. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a very clean park, it had paved level sites, but the roads inside the park were very narrow. The owners mentioned that the side of their building had been wiped out several times. We had plenty of room for both our Fifth Wheel and truck in our pull-thru site, but the people next to us had a site with less room and I am surprised their vehicle didn't get hit because of the tight arrangements. Not a lot of extra amenities, no cable TV, but worked as a spot for one night. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Don't be fooled by the convoluted driving directions. This park is as close to the freeway as you could possibly get and it is extremely noisy as a result. The spaces are very close together and many units (or attendant vehicles) stick out beyond their designated spaces. This makes navigating the park extremely tight and I doubt a big rig would make the corners. The interior roads are quite narrow, also. Staff was friendly, but that was probably the only plus. We will not stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a nice clean, friendly Park. The showers were large and very clean. The only draw backs to this park were narrow roads and freeway noise. We camped here in a Motorhome.
