Wonderful camping site

I can’t say enough good things about Island Park, Idaho’s Site #1 – our stay was absolutely fantastic! The site was easy to find with Google Maps guiding us straight from Route 20. Upon arrival, we encountered a minor issue with the electricity, but Mark quickly came to the rescue and had it sorted in no time. After settling in, we took a short walk around the site, and we were impressed by how clean, well-maintained, and secluded it felt – a true escape with a sense of safety. The porta-potty was spotless and stocked with toilet paper (although I’d recommend bringing your own just in case, as the dampness can affect it). Making a fire was easy with the wood provided, adding to our stay's charm. The location couldn’t have been more convenient – only 22 miles from the West Entrance of Yellowstone and within walking distance to the local lake, a restaurant (The Pines), and a liquor store. Overall, this site exceeded our expectations and was one of the best we could have chosen. Will we go again? Absolutely!

Mike is putting together a real nice Hipcamp, we would definitely stay again. We stayed in our 35' Fifth Wheel and had plenty of room. We stayed in space 1 and it was definitely the best choice for a larger RV. Be sure to walk to the river, it's beautiful.

Camping with dogs

We loved our stay at Camp Steelhead! It was the perfect location with lots of space and great amenities. Very clean bathroom! The trail to the river was so beautiful and the river spot at the end was incredible! Our dogs had the best time swimming. We would definitely come back!

This was a beautiful, quiet and spacious site! Great location as only 30 minutes from Yellowstone west entrance. The stream just 10 minutes walk away was an added bonus! Crystal clear and great for a cool down. Good communication with the host and nice to have firewood on site. 100% recommend

Visited site and everything promised was there. Didn’t end up staying for personal reasons, but felt that it was as-advertised and well-maintained.
