We loved to stay here. It was a great base camp to access Palisades reservoir, the snake River and Grand Teton national Park. Had great proximity to roads and trails. We stayed in one of the cabins and it was nice. Very comparable to a hotel room in size and arrangement.

We had a great rv spot. Green grass, trees, well maintained and very quiet. Laundry was clean and worked well.

It has a lot of grass and shade for your pets! I liked the room. It would have been nice if they would give you towels and sheets when you ask and not need a whole back story of why you need them. So maybe bring your own blankets. Other than that it was clean and very close to the river.

Very nice place! Stayed in the cabins, along with a couple of my sibling's families while we were in the area for a wedding. It was perfect for what we wanted...quiet, well-maintained, affordable...in a beautiful setting. We enjoyed the trees and flowers on the property. The short walk to the river was a perfect diversion for the youngest in our group. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Palisades RV Park and Cabins!

Cute little campground. We stayed in a cabin for a couple of nights. The camp host was the sweetest. I enjoyed chatting with her a couple of times. We used the barbecue one night and microwave the next. (Just make sure you bring dishes, utensils etc) The campground was kept so clean and very pretty landscaping and flowers (I sat on my porch and watched the hummingbirds by the flowers) We walked down to the river a few times to fish. Nice spot to spend a couple of days
