Secluded and Peaceful

This campground is close enough to McCall that you can run in for supplies or fun. However, it is far enough away that it doesn't get a ton of traffic. The campsites are dispersed with one area that is a group camping area. Pit toilets can be found at the beginning and end of the road. The lake is perfect for canoeing, kayaking, paddle-boarding, and leisurely boat rides. There is even a boat ramp to put in and take out at. Close hiking options are available too. Do keep in mind that as the season progresses the water layer will decrease.

Rustic

Quiet, nice canoe lake. Wildlife are present in this area each night. Lots of hiking available. Tight if bringing a longer RV, groups can be accommodated in the circle drive. Nice place to be free of electronics and crowds.

McCall Idaho & Payette Lake - A beautiful place apart

This site and the surrounding area is filled with lush vegetation and this crisp, cool, blue blue lake. You can see natural waterfalls, a "beach-type" picnic area, and though you're in a campground setting, it feels like it really is your own private Idaho. $10/day, rustic pit toilets, picnic benches...the usual fare. The site itself was nothing new, but the area begs for you to explore! (Busy in summer months!)

Payette camping

Camping west of boise is always fun. The closer to Oregon we get the more I enjoy the outdoors
