Juniper Grove Campground has 3 developed sites. This site provides access to the Jarbidge Willd and Scenic River. The Jarbidge has a short boating season, typically it only has enough water to float in the spring. The river has challenging whitewater and sections that most boaters portage. Two-wheel drive vehicles are sufficient to reach the put-in, located at the confluence of the West Fork and East Fork of the Jarbidge River about two miles north of Murphy Hot Springs.

Features
Gorgeous Site
Juniper Grove has four campsites and fire pits, a pit toilet, a lovely creek with accessible pools, tucked up against a rock wall. No water, no data access. A short distance down the road, there is a developed site along the river with four camps as well. super pretty area, easily accessed by passenger vehicles. No services anywhere near.
Water levels almost always low these days
This is a beautiful spot and relatively convenient to Boise (which otherwise doesn’t have a lot of great camping spots nearby). The river itself is beautiful and so much fun to raft, but this section is kind of spread out and shallow, making it essentially impossible to float on. Still worth a stop, but nowadays I feel a bit depressed looking at the water levels and thinking about days gone by. This is BLM administered land, if you’re really wanting to integrate boating into your stay I’d recommend calling ahead to ask them about the situation on the river.
