Best Time to Camp at Campground: Twin Falls
Twin Falls transforms with the seasons, offering distinct experiences throughout the year. Summer welcomes visitors with balmy temperatures reaching 78-80°F during peak weeks, accompanied by crystalline skies and minimal rainfall—perfect for hiking and waterfall exploration. As autumn arrives, the forest erupts in golden hues while temperatures gradually cool. Winter brings a dramatic transformation, with temperatures plummeting to 25°F and snow blanketing the landscape in pristine white. During these colder months, prepare for limited daylight and cloud-covered skies that create an ethereal, misty atmosphere around the falls.

Good to know
Trash and recyclingTrash and recycling facilities are limited. Visitors are encouraged to pack out more trash than they bring in, as littering has been noted as an issue. (Review by Andrew Barcus)
Proximity to water featuresThe campground is situated on the banks of the Lewis River and at the confluence with Twin Falls Creek, providing excellent access to water features and views of the falls.
Common complaints"Trash left behind by visitors" is a recurring issue, as noted in a user review: "The only real reason for giving it 4 stars instead of five is, it's an unkept camping site. Most, if not all of the fire pits are in bad shape and people leave behind lots of trash."
