Maybe. All unreserved sites will be available for campers arriving without a reservation. However, if a site you stay at has been reserved for a multi-night stay, you will have to change sites.
We encourage reservations to ensure you have a spot for the duration of your trip. All reservations must be made before midnight Mountain Time the day prior to your arrival. Same-day reservations are not allowed.
All Idaho Power campgrounds are subject to a 14-day stay limit.
Campers can reserve up to five sites online. Each reservation can be made for up to 14 days. After 14 days, you are required to remove all camping equipment and relocate at least five miles from your original camping area for at least five days. During those five days, you may visit any other Idaho Power lands, including parks. After the five days, you may return to your original area, if space is available.
Reserved campsites must be occupied by checkout time on the second day of the reservation (1 p.m. Mountain Time). Multi-day reservations will be cancelled if the site is not occupied in time.
We encourage visitors to use the online option. It costs less ($7), and it is easier to choose a site and manage your reservation online. Phone reservations cost $15.
