CAMPER SUMMARY PRESENTED BYFord

Giant White Pine Campground, near Harvard, Idaho, is a cozy spot that’s perfect for those who love to camp among towering trees. With a handful of sites nestled in a wooded area, it offers a nice blend of privacy and accessibility, making it a solid choice for tent camping.

The campground is known for its beautiful surroundings and nearby hiking trails, which cater to all skill levels. Visitors have enjoyed exploring the area, with one camper noting, “I found a really nice hiking trail near the campsite and spent most of the day exploring.” While the sites are clean and well-maintained, some campers have mentioned that they can be a bit close to each other, so keep that in mind if you’re looking for solitude.

Perfect for hammock!

I really like this campground for hammock camping. I had no trouble finding just the right spot to set up my gear.

This area is not open for winter camping. I have found few that are though.

I found a really nice hiking trail near the campsite and spent most of the day exploring the surrounding areas.

Our site did have a fire ring and a bench with dirt and moss cover.

I have been meaning to come back here but it’s hard for me to explore the same place twice.

Pretty campground but noisy road

We checked out campground and the giant white pine but decided not to camp there due to its proximity to a busy road. Lots of logging trucks made it awfully noisy for tent camping. Might be OK in a RV. The 14 sites are spacious and pretty, and only $8 per night. No electric hookup available. There was a network of trails for hiking and biking originating from the campground.

Nice little campground

Great little campground right off hwy 6, with first come first serve camping. There are only a dozen sites or so, but they're nicely spread out, wooded, and clean. They're a little noisy because some are close to the highway and there is a lot of atv/dirtbike use in this area. There's a trailhead nearby for bird watching and hiking, and mountain biking around as well. Lots to do! The USFS website is wrong about the fees, it's now $12 to camp with $2 for additional vehicles. There isn't much extra parking though, so you may end up parking on the road outside of the campground. Also, bring your own TP as there wasn't any when I was there.

better for trails.

Right off the highway, so traffic noise consistently. The trails are nice, but you don't come across water very often. Better for bikes and atv's. Beautiful trees.
