Pocatello, Idaho Campground | Pocatello KOA Journey

Come join us in the "Gateway to the Northwest", Home of Idaho State University. Known as the U.S. Smile Capital, Pocatello is famous for its hospitality.

The quiet Pocatello KOA is surrounded by mountains - perfect for skiing and snowmobiling in winter and rock climbing and hiking the rest of the year. Then soak your aching muscles in Idaho's world-famous Lava Hot Springs, only 30 minutes away. Pocatello's Ross Park features a pool and sporting activities and also hosts the Pocatello Zoo. Visit Idaho State University and the Museum of Natural History on campus. This KOA offers grassy, shaded Tent Sites with fire pits and up to 82-foot-long, extra-wide Pull-Thru RV Sites. Or stay in a Cabin! Year-round monthly sites available, as well as propane. Relax, play horseshoes or enjoy ice cream. This is a great overnight stop on your way to Yellowstone National Park, and it's 2 1/2 hours from Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Stay a night or two as you travel to/from the Calgary Stampede in Alberta, Canada. Gasoline is available on-site. Max pull thru: 82 feet. Your hosts: Rose V. and Tom D.

Overall Camper Rating:

Campground was a good place for us to stay for a couple of days while travelling thru Idaho. Utilites all worked. Staff was friendly & helpful. 10/18/2021

Clean and neat, friendly staff. Spaces were a bit close 10/18/2021

Easy to get into and out of our spot. Was peaceful and quiet at night. 10/17/2021

Lots of "residents" but overall a nice KOA. The host lended us an adaptor for the plug in and comp'ed me a slushy from their store. I'd stay here again. 10/17/2021

Very clean and brand new! 10/17/2021

We pulled in on a cold snow flurry day with our camper winterized. The shower/bathrooms were very clean and toasty warm!! That alone made our stay a 5 star experience. 10/16/2021

Nice little spot to get snowed in. They had a very nice dog park where our puppy could run around. Would caution against large RVs greater than 40 ft long. 10/15/2021

We were only there overnight but the helpfulness of staff to help two women dump tanks was more than appreciated. Also the mini store is well stocked and so helpful. This campground is absolutely beautiful and I will be stopping in again for sure. 10/14/2021

Nice bathroom and laundry area. Stay was nice! 10/14/2021

Host greeted us and was very informative on the weather conditions and precautions required. 10/14/2021

clean, quiet, great layout, and close to town amenities. 10/13/2021

The park was clean & quiet. I would suggest better making on the spaces so they are easier to see at night. The spot we stayed had a dump for grey/black that has an uphill at the end. Not sure why it was placed there making it more difficult to clean out the line.... 10/12/2021

We stayed 1 night in a truck camper. Our campsite was very narrow with little space to camper trailers on sites to each side. No privacy. The KOA facilities were clean and well-maintained. There is a grassed small fenced- in dog area which was really nice. 10/11/2021

great 10/10/2021
