RV Dump Site
There is an RV dumping station off Hwy 93 on West E Street in a small park on the south end of Shoshone, Idaho, which is south of Magic Reservoir about 20 miles.
Host On-Site
No.
Phone Service
Cell phone reception is spotty around Magic Reservoir. We had good reception on Highway 75 both to the north and to the south. I am sure there would be a pay phone in West Magic, which is just a mile or two north along the shore.
Garbage Services
No.
Fishing
Magic Reservoir has bass, perch, blue gill and a few other species of fish. Check the regulations.
Boating
There is a dock but it was not in the water or even positioned as if it were being used when we visited.
Swimming
Not really; the shore is somewhat weedy and muddy.
Recreation
Recreation includes camping, fishing and sunbathing. The recreation I would come here for would be fishing.
Wildlife
Wildlife would include deer, coyote and fox as well as many species of birds. Check out the owl we saw. We have a picture in it under our Recreation link.
