Hello,
we are looking to go to Idaho next summer and I'd like to stay in Boise for a couple of days.
Can anyone recommend a family friendly camp ground in Boise. Our girls are 10,12,14 so a pool would be great.
Thanks in advance for your help....

Do want to stay in the general area or in Boise itself? I haven't seen much in Boise but once you head towards McCall there are some nice ones, from pretty rustic along a stream to pretty new one in McCall with indoor pool and spa on the bank of the Piute river, I think that is the right river. Just outside the downtown and a beautiful lake. We spent 3 or 4 days at McCall this last summer.
could have been longer easily.

I live near Boise. Do you want an RV park or a campground? There is an RV Park off of Glenwood in Garden City (basically a suburb of Boise) that is on the Boise River. Wal Mart and various restaurants are within short, very short driving distance. Here is the link On the River RV Park. There's the Boise Meridian RV Resort, but that's quite a ways out, closer to Caldwell - here's the link to that one Boise Meridian RV Resort
One poster here said McCall - depending on what time of year you come Ponderosa State Park has a fairly new RV section and it's very nice up there. But it's a good 2 1/2 hours drive North of Boise.
Cascade is South of McCall - still about 1 1/2 hours drive North and has a nice RV park - at least a couple - Arrowhead and Water's Edge. Here's a link to the Idaho page for RV Park Hunter that may give you a start RV Park Hunter
Another alternative for dry camping areas, not as far as McCall or Cascade would be Idaho City - depending on the size of your RV you could go to Grayback Gulch or North of Idaho City there is Bad Bear and various other dry campgrounds but these would not have playgrounds other than the great outdoors.
Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll help you out the best I can. DH and I camp a lot around here from hookups to dry. Have never stayed at the RV parks in town but have driven through to check them out.

Thanks for the info!
I need to be in Boise as I compete in the 1/2 Ironman on 6/13. The event is at Lucky Peak State Park.
But since we are travelling with the kids we would like to stay somewhere that's kids friendly and has eiter a pool or river access.
I was thinking of either "On the River RV Park" or Mountain Home KOA (about 1 hr away).
Again thanks fo your input....
