A steep but well-maintained forest road climbs into Coeur d'Alene National Forest to reach this dispersed camping area, where pull-offs are limited and sites tend to fill on weekends. Campers who continue past the first mile find more options, including a blocked forest road entrance that provides a bit of separation from through traffic. Sites are not level. One reviewer noted audible freeway noise, so light sleepers should factor that in. Dogs are welcome, and at least one site has room to walk them. Campers exploring campgrounds near Coeur d'Alene National Forest will find this a low-amenity option with no hookups or developed facilities. A high-clearance vehicle is worth considering given the road grade.
