We never saw or spoke to the onsite staff but facility ran clean and smoothly. It was quiet and well maintained with excellent facilities available. Close to town and not crowded which we appreciated. Price seemed high but thats come to be expected in McCall these days unfortunately.

We are traveling in our 5th wheel and it’s our first time in McCall. We arrived without a reservation at 8pm and easily selected space 34 on the end. The rv park is lined with trees and easy to maneuver. We had a table and fire pit/bbq. It was pricey at $68/night IMO but other rv parks were more expensive. We didn’t get to use much of the amenities since we were traveling through. They had a food truck and nice picnic tables. Nice small grassy dog area. There are monthly tenants. The hwy 55 is nearby and not too noisy. Bathrooms were clean. Was a nice stop for a night but next time I think we’ll explore another park.

Camp ground had a lot of limbs laying around so we tracked it in the camper. Otherwise the camp ground was great. I went a day without a vehicle and you can get to town by walking path behind the RV ground. Bicycle path and easy access to shopping. Nice town next to an amazing lakes!

Friendly staff, showers were great with lots of pressure. Bathrooms were clean and fairly close to where we were camped which was as far away as we could be. The WiFi was pretty poor is our only problem.

Great place to stay but very expensive in my opinion! $68 plus tax for the 2025 season. We stayed in mid-May and the weather was great! Lots of open spaces and the pull through spots were great. The bathrooms were super nice and clean, the showers were hot and great pressure.
