This campground had 16 electric sites and 12 dry sites. Boat dock, dump station. $15 for electric $10 with golden age pass. and $5 for dry $2.50 with a pass. Several long pull throughs for big rigs. Cell service in the dry sites but very low in the improved sites. May need a booster.

We stopped here for a quick overnight on the way to the Tetons. We had a long day of driving and arrived after dark. Drove around and picked site 2, which was a back-in. This was one of the developed sites, so electric hook-up was available, but we didn't need it since we were only there to sleep overnight. Site fee in the developed section is $10, plus an extra $5 if you want electric. The park has 16 developed sites, and unknown number of undeveloped sites - we didn't drive up to check it out. The undeveloped area was up on a higher plateau and looked like a nice area with a good view of the reservoir It was early June and the developed sites were maybe 1/2 full. When we woke up in the morning we were amazed at the view we had out the front window of the RV. We went on a walk to check out the park and agreed that we need to come back and spend more time here. Gorgeous views We are easy to please so we prefer sites with views over amenities. I took one star off on site quality because of the lack of sewer hook up and one star on location due to lack of cell/data on T-Mobile. However, there is a very nice dump station near the exit. Access is 3 stars due to the fact that it is definitely off the beaten path. That said, I highly recommend this campground.

The drive in is on two lane roads but they are paved. All size rigs can make it with no problems.

The sites are clean and some have electricity hook ups. Some sites are just dry camping. All are fairly level. There is water and a dump site you can use. There are also garbage cans and the pit toilets are clean.

This is on a reservoir so there is fishing and kayaking. While here each day was say pelican, ducks, geese, hawks, moose and deer.

The campground is clean and quit and there is a camp host on site. We had planned on staying two nights but ended up staying four. I did not count the number of sites but the place was big and mostly empty while we were here.

On cell service, we had 4 and 5 bars then it would be nothing for 30 minutes then it would come back for a few hours. No problem for us but I have never had that before. Tower issues?

Previous reviewers covered it well. The dry camp sites are located higher up on a hill and had cell coverage, enough to use a hot spot. Hookup sites, located lower down had no Verizon coverage. Impressively clean vault toilets. Super quiet, lots of water fowl. People driving in to fish in the evening and morning. Only two other campers staying in the developed sites. This campground is open year round and is free from October 1- April 30. No electricity, water, dump site, or camphost available during this time frame.

We stayed here for a week in the dry sites up on the hill. We had a fantastic view from up here, pastoral with tree-covered hills on one side, and the reservoir on the other. ATT signal was good enough to do basic stuff, browse the internet, etc. Verizon was good enough to make phone calls and send texts, but slow doing anything data-related. The roads in are paved and marked, and any size rig can fit in the upper sites. The lower, developed ones with electricity might be more challenging if you're 68' long like we are. We only saw one or two that we would attempt with our setup. The first couple days we were in some kind of midge hatch, and they were everywhere - along with a couple that actually bit. Most were non-biting, but very annoying. Then they just sort of almost disappeared. It was windy, but that's spring. The only negative would be the bugs, and you can't get away from that when you're near water.

There is a note posted says the BLM is going to raise prices for this campground. There is no date as to when. We stayed here the last three nights of April so the site was free with electric hookup. The water was turned off in the campground but that was fine. Very nice sites with fire pit and covered picnic table. We stayed in loop A and we’re they only ones in the entire campground. Weather was bad so no fishing but it looks like a great spot for it.

Very nice BLM campground. This was our 2nd visit here. Nice gravel sites by the reservoir. Sites have electric and covered picnic table and fire pits. Nice large sites and very clean pit toilets. There are also primitive sites on the hill with picnic table and fire pits.
Our price included senior pass discount

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Blackfoot Reservoir Campground is a gem! A little North of Soda Springs, ID, it’s a off the beaten path. On-site water spigots have standard threads, but very high pressure. There is also a dump station on site. Fill your fresh tank just after the pay station; water quality was good. Sites 1-16 have 15, 30 & 50 amp connections, have fire rings, nice covered metal picnic tables, are nearly level, and are all gravel, except for one fully paved handicap accessible site. Be Zero to 1-bar cell signal for all carriers. All sites have good solar access, and clear satellite shot to Southern sky. Power at site 2 was “clean”. We arrived at noon on a Wednesday, and even by 5pm, there were still many vacant sites. No bath houses, but multiple clean and stocked pit toilets. If you boat or fish, this CG is right on the reservoir, with a paved boat ramp and floating docks. We WOULD stay here again. $10 per night ($5 w/ NPS Senior or Access Pass), plus $5 more (no discount) for the sites w/ electric.
