Best RV Parks & Resorts near Athol, ID

Several RV parks are located within 30 miles of Athol, Idaho, providing varied accommodation options for motorhomes and travel trailers. Silverwood RV Park, adjacent to the theme park, operates seasonally from May through October with full hookup sites including 50-amp electrical connections. The grounds feature level parking areas with water and sewer hookups. "Sites are much too close to be comfortable, and there is no shade," noted one visitor about a nearby park, highlighting a common issue in the region. Blackwell Island RV Park in Coeur d'Alene accommodates big rigs with pull-through sites, offering full hookups from April through mid-October. Kootenai County Fairgrounds RV Park provides concrete pads with 30/50-amp service and spacious sites that can handle larger rigs including 45-foot class A motorhomes with tow vehicles.

The terrain across northern Idaho RV parks varies from gravel to concrete pads, with many facilities offering amenities suitable for extended stays. Dump stations are available at most parks, though Silverwood RV Park lacks this service. Cell coverage is generally reliable throughout the region, with visitors reporting strong AT&T and Verizon signals at Liberty Lake RV Campground. Many parks enforce strict pet policies, requiring leashes and waste pickup. Winter RV camping options are limited as most facilities close seasonally, with only a few parks like Tamarack RV Park remaining open year-round. According to one visitor, the Kootenai County Fairgrounds RV Park has "very reasonable prices for this area" with minimal road noise at night. Reservation requirements vary by location, with peak summer months typically requiring advance booking.

    Liberty Lake RV Campground

    Looks like a parking lot with RVs

    This is a newer RV park in Liberty Lake. They have only been open 2 years. Liberty Lake is between Spokane, WA and Coeur d’Alene ID. There are about 130 spaces or so, with concrete pads and paved streets. There is grass between sites, but they are much too close to be comfortable, and there is no shade! And, the rules!!! Lots more rules than most other camping areas.’ It also appears many of the residents are semi-permanent. They have free cable snd wifi, a dog park, playground, swimming pool, laundry, and dump station. The sites are 30/50 amp, most are pull through but the outer ring is back in. They also have propane. They are on the pricy side: an outside loop 50 ft. Site is $74/night. Good Sam gets you a 10% discount. It is easy access to I-90 both East and west.

    Blackwell Island RV Park

    Waterfront RV campground

    9/14 to 9/17/19

    Blackwell Island RV Resort

    Coeur d'alene Idaho 

    Close to interstate, located next to Spokane River and lake. Boat and kayak rentals. Sites are gravel, level, both pull throughs and back ins available, FHU, no privacy between sites. Some nice water front sites. Chairs in place to enjoy the small beach. Nice volleyball and play area. Small BMX course was fun. Cute landscaping near water, small trees within the campground. Picnic tables, no wood fires allowed. No tents of any kind. Very limited store at the office. Town very close with stores and restaurants. Nice restaurant a short distance at the Marina called Cedars. Great private bathroom/with shower. Nice laundry facilities. Free cable and spotty wifi. Moose too!

    Kootenai County Fairgrounds RV Park

    It's one of the nicest fairground rv parks.

    It's one of the nicest fairground rv park I have been to. This place was very well kept and very friendly campground host. This place is big rig friendly. I stayed in a 45 class A motorhome with a tow vehicle. I had no problem with the access to the rv park. If you are coming off of interstate 90, don't use exit 13. The round about is way to small to handle big rig or any camper. The best route is exit 12 big rig friendly. The price is very reasonable for this area. No shade.

    Liberty Lake Regional Park

    Quiet park close to Spokane

    We spent 3 weeks at Liberty Lake Regional Park while visiting our son and grandkids in Spokane. The road in is a little narrow, but once in, it’s a great little campground. Most of the sites are fairly level. We stayed at 2 different sites over 3 weeks, and both were level. They are close together! They provide a fire pit if you want one. Picnic table, water and electric. The dump station is quite a drive, back out, up the hill. There is a clean shower/bathroom building and a beach within walking distance of the campground. While we were there the campground hosts did a fantastic job of keeping everything clean and tidy. Several hiking trails, including an equestrian trail, waterfall, fishing and lots of wildlife. There were deer in the campground every day, we saw moose, owls, pilated woodpecker, and hawks. We were there over July 4th weekend and they had a fireworks display on the beach.

    Thousand Trails Little Diamond

    Little Diamond Newport Washington

    We spent a week here and loved it. It is so quiet and peaceful. The sites share electric and water, no sewer and are positioned oddly they are on the off side and in front by the road. Some 30and 50 amp just check the box. The sites are gravel, some what level and size/length varies, a few pull throughs, our 37ft 5ver had no problem. Bathroom showers are ok. Laundry is good. There is a small lake free fishing, didn’t fish. We stayed in the Thousand Trails side, it is a split park with KOA on the other side. Two dump stations, nice lodge/ spa and pool open. AT&T and Sprint were very good. At our site 144

    Albert's Landing

    Clean, Friendly, Well Maintained RV Campground on the CDA River

    Albert's Landing is a clean, well managed RV campground on the shores of the North Fork of the CDA River near Cataldo, Idaho. 

    The campground offers 60+ sites with water & 30\50 amp service, level gravel pads, picnic tables, and fire rings. There is nearly 1000' of river frontage, a camp store, and a river float shuttle. However, the campground does not currently have a septic dump, trash facilities, or showers, Those services will be available soon though.

    The North Fork of the CDA River is a popular destination for river floating, fishing, and off road recreational activities. 

    Down the road from the campground is the historic Snake Pit restaurant. Highly recommend stopping in for their great food, atmosphere, and colorful history.  

    If you're planning to visit the North Fork of the CDA River, I highly recommend Albert's Landing.

    Sedlmayer's Resort & Campground

    A great quiet campground on the lake front.

    My wife accidentally came across this private campground, which turned into a great stay. Located in northern Idaho and right on Spirit Lake, this campground has 31 RV sites that can accommodate various sizes of RVs. Every site has 20, 30& 50 amp electrical service however, only sites 1 through 21 have sewer. If you need a pull-through site, then go with #14 through#19, or#21.

    The campground has a lakeside restaurant, boat slips for campers, and a small general store. The area was well maintained and clean. There are numerous mature cedar trees providing shade and privacy throughout the campground. My only complaint is that only 5 fire pits are located throughout the campground. This campground seems to be a local known quiet gem worth checking out for family fun.


Guide to Athol

Northern Idaho RV campgrounds near Athol offer diverse options with practical amenities for travelers. Athol sits at an elevation of 2,205 feet with generally mild summer temperatures averaging 75-85°F. Most parks close during winter months with first snowfall typically arriving in November, though several remain accessible year-round for those with proper cold-weather RV equipment.

What to do

Hiking at Farragut State Park: Located within 20 miles of Athol, this recreation area provides multiple trails and lake access. "Numerous well spaced sites with water & electric. Near Lake Pend Oreille. Grab the kayak or boat & enjoy!" notes a visitor to River Walk RV Park.

Downtown exploration: Many RV parks are situated near walkable small towns. "The best thing about the campsite is that it is the closet place to stay near Silverwood theme park. You can easily walk from your tent right into the park, which makes it super convenient," explains a camper at Silverwood RV Park.

Water activities: Several parks offer direct water access. "Beautiful location convenient to downtown and on the water. The sites are close to others which for us isn't a big deal but don't expect isolation," reports a visitor at Blackwell Island RV Park.

What campers like

Theme park convenience: Many visitors choose RV parks based on proximity to attractions. "5 minute walk to theme parks under the highway. Site 74 backed up to a fence. Had no neighbors. But was furthest from the parks," notes a camper about their experience.

River views: Parks with waterfront access receive positive reviews. "A really pretty setting, though the spaces feel a little narrow. I'd definitely come back," mentions a guest at Tamarack RV Park And Vacation Cabins.

Clean facilities: Well-maintained bathrooms and showers matter to campers. "Very well maintained and excellent front desk service. Wish there was space to sit outside at the picnic table but spaces are too tight - we would be on top of our neighbor's sewer. Very level spot and no street noise," states another visitor to Tamarack RV Park.

What you should know

Site spacing considerations: Many RV parks in the region have limited space between sites. "This park is only 5 years old and gets better every year. Bathrooms and shower house are open. Free WiFi added in 2023. Previous host has been replaced with two new hosts who are very friendly," explains a visitor to Kootenai County Fairgrounds RV Park.

WiFi reliability varies: Internet connection quality differs significantly between parks. "Wifi is useable for basic internet use. AT&T service is great though," reports a visitor about Liberty Lake RV Campground.

Seasonal considerations: Most parks have limited availability during winter months. "Park is new and well maintained. Roads are paved and easy access in and out. Sites are concrete pads with a picnic table also on concrete," notes a camper.

Tips for camping with families

Look for parks with recreation areas: Some campgrounds offer dedicated kid-friendly zones. "A slamdunk if you're going to silverwood. The amenities are nice - showers, bathrooms, great little store. Spaces feel spaced out. We were in loop F. Highly recommend. Kids loved the playground too," shares a visitor.

Consider tent camping limitations: Not all parks accommodate tent camping equally. "If tenting and on the roadside (vs creekside), be advised of the light overhead which keeps your tent in the light all night," warns a camper at Wallace RV Park.

Research noise levels: Highway and train noise can affect sleep quality. "There is mostly positives about my 3 nights here. The lake is gorgeous and plenty of golf courses. Plus the conveniences of grocery stores and Walmart. The beaches were very nice for both people and dogs," notes a visitor.

Tips from RVers

Power hookup verification: Check electrical requirements before booking. "We stayed here in July. It's next to Silverwood theme park, so you can camp the night before, hit the theme park early, and then crash after a fun filled day. Make sure you reserve the correct power hookup for your RV," advises an experienced RVer.

Big rig access routes: Some parks have restricted access for larger vehicles. "Beautifully laid out rv sites. Easily fit my 5th wheel, truck, and wives suv on the pull through and my site was the shortest of the three," explains a guest at Bergsparken RV Park.

Leveling considerations: Site condition varies across parks. "The sites are all pretty level with the parking areas paved. Grass and groomed gravel areas too. There are various sized sites most are back in," notes a camper regarding pad quality.
