Bumblebee Campground

We camped at Bumblebee in July so we could have easy access to the North Fork of the Coeur d'Alene River. The campground is managed by the US Forest Service with a camp host and has 23 campsites and a large group campsite that would accommodate up to 100 people. The amenities include paved/chip sealed roads and campsite parking, vault toilets and potable water spigots. The campsites are wooded and a stream runs past the campground. There were blue Forget-Me-Nots growing all along the stream. The campground provides nearby river access for fishing and floating.

Fishing and Floating from the Bumblebee Campground

This is a spacious, green campground surrounded by trees and greenery.  Great for bike rides, fire pit cooking and hiking.  There is a lot of space between campsites and it feels like you have the whole place to yourself.  Great for kids, families and photography.  This is a popular spot for tubing, swimming and playing in the river.  The camp hosts are super friendly and say there is a resident moose to look out for!
