Shoshone Falls Park - Cool rock formations on road down to entrance

Took a little side trip to see this waterfall while staying in nearby Jerome, ID. It costs $5 per…read morevehicle to enter. There is a guarded pay station as you drive into the parking area. They take credit cards for payment. We anticipated a lower falls flow than usual, since it's so late in the season, but we still thoroughly enjoyed our visit and thought it was well worth the $5 fee. They have restrooms, picnic tables, dog potty area with waste bags, garbage cans, and an information kiosk off the parking area. There is a nice sized viewing platform available for a closer the falls and Snake River. There's about a dozen stairs down to the platform from the parking lot. There are plenty of viewing opportunities from the parking lot as well, if stairs aren't an option for you. Overall we really enjoyed our time here. We would highly recommend!

Known as the "Niagara of the West," this waterfall is definitely worth a stop. There's a $5…read moreentrance fee, and a sign at the entrance shows the current water flow level--full, medium, or low. We visited in mid-September, so unfortunately the waterfall wasn't at full flow. It's very easy to access, with a short walk from the parking lot to the viewing area. For the best chance of seeing the waterfall at full flow, spring or early summer is normally the best time to visit. We also visited Dierkes Lake nearby. It's a beautiful lake and a nice addition to the visit.

This review is for Banbury Adventures-- We were looking for a kayak rental that allowed our 10 lb…read moredog and this was the spot! Gentleman behind the counter was friendly and got us taken care of as a walk in rental. We were able to fill out our waivers quickly and packed up our cooler and waterproof bag to meet him at the life jackets (included with the rental). We brought our dog's life jacket since she's used to paddle boarding and being unfamiliar with the Snake River, we wanted to be safe. Kayaks were clean, good quality and had backrests which were nice. It had storage space in the front and back of the kayak too. We paddled out to Blue Heart Springs and back. We'd definitely come back when we have more time to explore!

Mixed Review. What you need to know when booking a stay…read morehere, NO WIFI and no cellular service. This is the second time we have been there in the last 2 years and they said the same thing last time "we are working on it." This time we booked the condo which was nice enough but w/o service and no cable there is little to do when you are not swimming. There are 2 TV sets but one is hooked to nothing and the other has a DVD player but no DVD's. The actual hot spring pools and private rooms are quite nice. There is a diving board as the deep end is 8 feet deep. is It is clear they are upgrading things around the springs. Kayak rentals are on site. There are no swimming in the Snake River from the kayak launch. Camp sites were busy and the area was pretty clean. The only food and drinks are soda, water, chips, and candy bars. All very reasonable prices. The staff was helpful and polite.

We stayed at Anderson Camp in late July with our 28' TT. We stayed in pull-thru site 15 with FHU…read more Site 15 was a corner site with plenty of grass and shade trees. Check in was easy and the staff was friendly and helpful. Cell service and the WiFi was good. The water slide and pools were a hit with the kids and the adults. We didn't get a chance to do the mini-golf. The campground is well maintained. The only downside was that the store and water slides close at 6pm on Sundays. We would definitely stay here again when in the area.

Don't waste your money!…read more Planned a get together with my out of state family and decided on renting 2 cabins at Anderson camp. I should have read the reviews before booking. I don't even know where to begin in explaining how awful our experience was. We paid $80 a night per cabin, plus a $25 refundable remote fee. When we called to book the cabins the person we talked to said it was private and that the spaces were apart so that we would have privacy but we were surrounded by RV spots. The pictures online are very misleading! On the site map it shows the cabins next to a stream with the doors facing the stream but that is not the case. The doors and the porch face the longterm RV spots which was not a nice view or private at all. The cabins were so HOT inside it was like sleeping in a sauna. Even tho there are 2 fans and windows you can open, it was so miserable, even at night! At 9pm I went to wash my hands in the sink inside the cabin and the sink started backing up. I found a plunger in the bathroom and when I tried using it in the sink a bunch of old stagnant, stinky, slimy and moldy water came up and you could tell it has been plugged up for a while. I had to call the after hours number and spoke to some lady who told me she would send the maintenance man over. About 20 min later he shows up stumbing all over the place, slurring his words and stinking like alcohol. He had the nerve to ask us "what we put down the sink" I told him we did not put anything down the sink and that obviously the sink had been plugged for a while. He then told me that he "has never had that happen in 7 years". I told him theres a first time for everything and that I was offended that he accused us of doing it. NO apology was given! After he fixed it he stumbled back out to his car and left. The cabins were dirty and full of cobwebs. Our fan quit working in the middle of the night, and in order to shut the light off without turning the ceiling fan off, we had to use the rickety chair to stand on in order to reach the chain to turn off the light. I called the next morning and talked to the "so called" manager and told her what happened....she didnt care. And again...no apology! She brought us another fan and said that the maintenenance man "her husband" was not drunk, he had just woke up....whatever lady, I know a drunk when I see one! For little more money we could have stayed at the KOA with AC, privacy and good customer service. To "Jason" the owner, your business has gone to downhill and you should either get rid of the clowns you have running it, or teach them some manners and how to treat their customers with respect. You should care more about how your customers are treated so they will actually have a good experience and come back. Do better!!!

Solo camped there last week. Well groomed and maintained…read morecampgrounds. Came in after dark and was a bit confused as the front is a massive gas station with lights burning all night. Gentleman that guided me to my tent site was very nice. Didn't see the river it overlooks, just a cyclone fence with a lot of bramble, but I didn't go looking either. Downstairs bathrooms with laundry room were clean. Little creepy with doors propped open so anyone upstairs in the store can look down into women's bathroom which may be why the woman I encountered in the morning was wearing a pink pistol on her hip. But they were clean, a bit small in the shower stalls, yet decent. Had a bit of a scare when it sounded like a fire alarm went off while finishing my shower. With visions of me scaring the firefighters in my nakedness, realized it was one of the toilets that just needed a flush. (Whew!) Star reduction for the lack of mention of 24 hour gas station adjoining the property on the site or accompanying paperwork. Added star for well manicured grounds, ease of registration, personal services including meal delivery to your campsite.

Spaces we're large and shady. They delivered food. We had pizza and fish basket. It was all very…read moretasty. Only downfall was feed lot smell but it wasn't too bad and not all the time.
