Rainier/Rainy (Big Eddy) Access Area Campground

Big Eddy/Rainey Access Area is a free, first-come, first-served campground managed by Idaho Fish and Game with vault toilets, fire pits, and picnic tables situated directly on the Teton River.

The site features a boat ramp that serves as the second most popular put-in and most popular takeout for river paddling, with a large parking area and deep swimming hole nearby.

Access via dirt road (avoid GPS directions—take Bates Road west from Driggs, turn right on 6000 W at the black mailbox, then right on W 2000 N); maximum 10-day stay with good cellular coverage and opportunities for fishing, kayaking, and wildlife viewing including moose.
