Givens Hot Springs

Soaking in mineral-rich waters, Givens Hot Springs Campground offers a unique blend of historical charm, therapeutic relaxation, and rustic camping experiences. This family-owned oasis, dating back to 1881, provides a glimpse into Idaho's pioneering past while offering modern comforts for today's travelers.

The crystal-clear waters, known for their soothing properties, invite campers to unwind after a day of exploration or simply to enjoy a leisurely soak.

Situated along the Snake River in Melba, Idaho, Givens Hot Springs is conveniently located about 45 minutes southwest of Boise. The surrounding Owyhee Mountains provide a scenic backdrop, with opportunities for hiking and wildlife viewing in the nearby landscapes. The campground's proximity to the river also allows for fishing and casual walks along its banks.

While the facilities maintain a rustic character reflective of their historical roots, they offer essential amenities including porta-potties, fire pits, and picnic tables. The campground's open grassy areas provide space for children to play, complemented by a small playground. For those seeking a deeper connection to the area's past, the property's longstanding presence in the region offers a tangible link to Idaho's early settlement era.
