Robinson Lake Campground

The quiet shores of Robinson Lake provide a drive-in camping experience within the Kaniksu National Forest. This US Forest Service campground operates from late May through mid-September, accommodating RVs up to 27 feet alongside tent campers. Sites include picnic tables and fire rings, with vault toilets and drinking water available throughout the property.

The lakeside location draws campers who appreciate less crowded forest settings. Pets are welcome on leash, and the campground's seasonal closure during winter months reflects its high-elevation setting in northern Idaho. For campers wanting additional forest access, Copper Creek Campground sits a few miles northeast.
