Located in Almo, Castle Rocks State Park boasts a landscape that looks like it's from a different world - one that travelers flock from all over the state to get a good look at. You can even enjoy a stay at one of the park's unique accommodations for an epic Idaho stay-cation.
Castle Rocks is home to picturesque campgrounds, including a spectacularly cozy yurt. However, for those who want something a little more luxurious, a stay at the historic ranch house or bunk house is a must.
Commonly referred to as "The Lodge", this structure is over a century old and blends historic charm with the comforts and amenities of modern day. It's available to guests year-round, and it makes for the perfect base camp during your Castle Rocks adventure.
Inside, The Lodge boasts a master bedroom, a TV room with a sofa bed, a reading room/den, a fully equipped kitchen, a spacious bathroom with tub and shower, and a dining area. With room to accommodate up to eight guests, it provides plenty of comfort for families both small and large.
Other amenities at The Lodge include WiFi access, smart TVs, and an outdoor deck that offers idyllic views of the Castle Rocks scenery. The Lodge's "Quiet Room" is an especially magical section of the house, offering a small bedroom that's attached to a private deck.
The structure next to The Lodge, The Bunkhouse, is a large event area that's great for family reunions or group meetings. It also boasts a living area that can accommodate up to 12 people, but keep in mind that it's a much more rustic experience in the same vein as camping.
Best of all, both The Lodge and The Bunkhouse offer guests instant access to the extraordinary landscape of Castle Rocks State Park. Wake up in on of Idaho's most breathtaking destinations, and plan an overnight adventure at this state park! More information can be found at the Parks and Recreation website.
