Discover City of Rocks National Reserve RV rentals for memorable road trips

The City of Rocks National Reserve, which was officially established in 1988, is not only an Idaho geological wonder but also an important part of the country’s history. The City of Rocks was a popular stopping spot for pioneers and settlers traveling along the California Trail between 1843 and 1882. Because so many caravans sheltered among these rocks, a temporary tent city was established here, allowing people to replenish their supplies and trade for goods.

Getting Outdoors

City of Rocks National Reserve sprawls across 14,400 acres of some of Idaho’s most rugged terrains. Save for a few months in early spring; water is extremely scarce. The land is rolling, blanketed by desert-hardy plants like sagebrush and bitterbrush. Jags of rocks poke through the earth like splinters. Because the terrain is grueling and challenging to navigate, hikers and horseback riders should be experienced at orienteering.

Camping at City of Rocks National Reserve

Being far from a motel, it’s practically a requirement to rent an RV to enjoy the City of Rocks National Reserve to its fullest. City of Rocks National Reserve RV campground has 64 sites, all of which are accompanied by fire rings and picnic tables. There are vault toilets, too. Though the campground does not have running water, there is drinking water available in the picnic area. Reservations are recommended.

Exploring the Area

As enticing as City of Rocks National Reserve is, the small towns scattered across southern Idaho too are full of charm and history. Rupert operates Minidoka County Historical Museum, which has on display over 600 antique bottles and glass jars left behind by pioneers, rifles, and guns used by settlers in the late 1800s, Native American artifacts, and even fossils that were found locally. Also nearby is the Historic Wilson Theater, which was built at the height of Roaring 20s. In addition to hosting entertainment acts, concerts, and musicals, the venue also is open to tours.

Our hosts were fantastic. We had a great trailer to enjoy and the brief orientation was fantastic to make us comfortable with this newer trailer and great features. Would love to rent their trailer again. Great folks.

The camper was SO great for our family of five! Fully stocked kitchen with coffee, tea, popcorn, even dog treats! The bunk beds were perfect for our older kids and there is plenty of room for a pack’n play for the baby in the living room area. The bedroom is spacious with plenty of cabinets for all our things. The trailer was SO clean and there weren’t any bugs or spider webs, which I really appreciated. This family is so kind and great to work with! We will definitely book with them again and would recommend them to anyone!
