Our Commitment to Accuracy
The mission of RVIdaho.org is to be the most accurate, useful, and up-to-date resource for RV and camping travel in the Gem State. We are building on the legacy of the original “RV IDAHO” directory, a resource trusted by travelers for decades.
We understand that you rely on our information to plan your adventures. Our team is committed to a “people-first” approach, which means providing content that is as factual, fresh, and helpful as possible.
However, the world of RV travel is constantly changing. Campground policies, amenity availability, operating hours, road conditions, and public land regulations are subject to frequent updates by their managing agencies.
Even the original “RV IDAHO” directory stated: “IRVCA cannot guarantee the completeness or accuracy of the information. YOU MUST CONTACT CAMPGROUNDS DIRECTLY…”.
While we strive for 100% accuracy at the time of publication, we acknowledge that errors will occur and information will become outdated. This policy outlines our fact-checking process and the method for our community to help us keep this resource current.
Our Fact-Checking Process
- Editorial & Guide Content: Our travel itineraries, boondocking guides, and resource articles are researched using primary sources, including the Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the U.S. Forest Service, and other official tourism bodies.
- Campground Directory Listings: Our directory is a massive, ongoing project. Data points (like full hook-ups, max amps, dump station availability, etc.) are gathered from official park websites, direct contact, and other public data sources. We conduct periodic reviews to refresh this data.
- Boondocking Information: Details for dispersed camping, such as stay limits and road accessibility, are based on official land manager rules and supplemented by recent traveler reports. This information is particularly subject to change due to weather and policy updates.
Your Role: Our Corrections Process
We are building this resource for the community, and we depend on our community to help us maintain it. We welcome and encourage all readers to submit corrections.
If you see something, please say something.
You can help by reporting:
- A permanently closed campground or RV park.
- Inaccurate amenity information (e.g., “This park’s dump station is no longer available” or “This site now has Wi-Fi”).
- Incorrect pricing, fees, or reservation information.
- Broken website links or phone numbers.
- Changes in public land rules (e.g., new stay limits, “No Camping” signs in a previously dispersed area 8).
- Hazardous or inaccurate road/access descriptions for boondocking sites.
