Last chance campground

Stayed two nights here. Very nice, large campsite spots with picknick table and fire pit. Friendly camp host. Clean vault toilets. Goose Trial is right at the campsite. Nice easy trial. First come spots. We came in late 700pm but there were a lot of spots left.

Narrow road

The road leading up to sites is very narrow and steep grade. With a trailer you do not have enough room for any oncoming traffic. Luckily it is not a busy road. Nice spots along the river. Spotty cell service.

Forest and stream

Really enjoyed this secluded campground. It's a little over 2 miles off the main highway on a decent gravel road. I will say however that this road is on the side of a steep hill and is mostly a one lane road. If towing a trailer You may have problems getting by on coming traffic. There are not many wide spots available to get by on coming vehicles. The campground is really nice . Many of the spots are shady with a lot of trees and the sound of Goose Creek tumbling by is wonderful. Love the trailhead access at the end of the campground and the 2 and a 1/2 mile or so hike to Goose Creek falls.

Perfect weekend away from Boise

Stayed at this campsite in late July and it was very quiet and not every campsite was occupied. Karen, the camp host is an absolute sweetheart and gave us some really good recommendations for the are. The highlight was definitely the abundance of huckleberries on the Goose Creek trail. You barely have to search for them! Also great that if your camp food gets tired, McCall is only 15 minutes away for a burger and beer!

Love love love

We adore this spot for so many reasons—proximity to adorable McCall but removed enough to feel remote, trees, hiking along the water, close encounters with the fauna kind :) do yourself a favor and visit this secluded paradise

So much to offer!

This used to be one of my favorite campgrounds until they had to log it this past winter. As of now (2020) the campground is closed to the public until they can clean it up. It is very close to McCall and New Meadows which is great. Goose Creek flows right by the sites and it is very wooded here. There is a hot springs near the entry. While it is on private property, many people still use it. Sadly, it gets vandalized a lot. Please be considerate and clean up after yourself! This is a great place to access Goose Creek Falls. A great hike for the family. It is also a good place to pick Morels in the spring and Huckleberries in the summer!

Another terrific Idaho campground!

Excellent campground with large sites, beautiful and huge Ponderosa pines, and very clean and odorless vault toilets. We heard an owl hoot twice. The hike to the Goose Creek falls, as mentioned by others, is great. It's 2.8 miles to the Falls and another 0.2 miles to a neat bridge. The water was wild in June and so were the flowers. The trail is exceptionally well designed and has boardwalks over muddy stretches. I highly recommend both the campground and hike!

A hot spring experience!

The best hot spring locates a short distance from the campground. This is one of my favorite places to camp. The trees around gave us plenty of shade on a hot day!

Off the Path

The road up to this campground isn't bad but it is gavel and steep. The grounds are fantastic however and located right next to a stream. The bathrooms are pit toilets but they did have potable water out of a spout. The hike up the river to the falls is one of the better short hikes in the area but there is evidence of bears.
