Campground Overview
About South Tourist Park
Situated along the serene banks of the Snake River, South Tourist Park Campground blends urban accessibility with riverside charm, offering no-frills camping that caters to both short stopovers and leisurely stays. The campground’s highlights include grassy, shaded sites equipped with picnic tables, fire pits, and grills, alongside essential amenities such as potable water, flush toilets, and an RV dump station. Its proximity to the Snake River ensures excellent opportunities for fishing, boating, and sunset views, while a scenic bike path connects campers to the nearby Idaho Falls Riverwalk, making it an excellent base for exploring the city’s vibrant dining and cultural offerings.
Located in Idaho Falls, South Tourist Park is just minutes from downtown and less than a 30-minute drive from regional attractions like the Idaho Potato Museum and local wildlife preserves. Spanning 13.9 acres, this first-come, first-served campground features 15 level, pull-through sites ideal for tents or RVs, though it provides no hookups for campers. While the tranquil setting is occasionally disrupted by passing trains, the park’s lush environment and convenient amenities make it a practical and scenic choice for travelers exploring southeastern Idaho.
