"Lovely and well maintained FS campground on Cascade Reservoir. It’s small, with well spaced sites."
"The campsites were large and there was access to the lake. The only space left for us was the one right in the front near the entrance but it was great!"
GuideHad a great weekend - the site was roughly 20 yards from the river so it was perfect. All the sites are kept clean (gravel) and have vault toilets throughout. First impression when you pull in? It looks bare and small but, the farther you drive in, the more appealing it becomes.
Only glitch in the weekend was an impromptu concert put on by a lady next to us. High pitched with what sounded like singing in tongues. But I guess each to their own…
GuideFrontier Motel and RV Park is more of a motel than an RV park, with only ten spaces behind the motel and in between a public, local road. The motel was fronting Hwy 95 and the RV spaces were one block behind. They have a pool (nice!), laundry and easy town access, since the motel was right in town. The pool wasn’t warm, maybe 75F, but it sufficed for the cool-off need. The town, Cambridge, ID, was a nice, small town, maybe 200 residents. It appears that most of the 10-or-so RV spaces were used by monthly renters, but they had a spot for me and during a holiday weekend. Nice staff. For some reason I couldn't make friends with the black lab (the owner's dog). She's old, doesn't walk that well, but was wary of new people. I did not have any, any negative interactions with her, she just wouldn't let me give her a pet. The three-star rating is that the site location, noise from the highway and the street, and the marginal sewer connection (water/power were fine).
TravelerWow this park is amazing, very well run 10 out of 10 on this one.The indoor pool and spa and steam room made this my favorite park so far on our journey.For any fisherman, as you leave the park go right about 2 miles to a parking area for Brown Pond. I caught my limit in 20 minutes, and earthworms hanging two feet down from a bobber is the ticket, enjoy.
RangerI love this area so very much. It’s next to the river, with little beaches. We are near 4 natural hot springs!! Yes there is a road next to the campsite, but we are down a little slope. If you want to be away from that move up higher. Maybe 10/15 cars a day. It’s gravel. The dust from the road doesn’t hit us. Rangers are so nice. Don’t over stay your 14days. This is a perfect group spot with 4 different fire pits and sites
TravelerMonica at the check in was great. Used this campground on cross country motorcycle trip. Tent camp is great with trees and grass, level site. Showers and restroom on site. Plenty of good looking pull thru gravel sites for RVs. Price was also good. Definitely will stay here again!
TravelerThis was the first time my girlfriend and I go camping! We stayed for a total of 4 days! We stayed in site 6! The place is very well maintained! The bathrooms are very clean! And the most helpful feature is that the campsite has clean running water! Super helpful to clean dishes and wash our hands!
RangerThis campground is right off Lick Creek road along the Secesh River. There are only 5 spots. First come first served $10 fee. There are picnic tables, fire rings and a clean vault toilet. Our site was Site 1 and we backed up to the river. This was a quick overnight stop for us. It was beautiful to listen to the river all night. There are horse hitching posts in this campground. We were the only campers but the camps are pretty spread out.
RangerCamping on the Deadwood Reservoir along the Idaho Back country trail. Absolutely stunning. A lake with a beach and views from every campsite . Very clean vault bathrooms.
TravelerSage hen Reservoir takes a bit to get to- nice but narrow dirt roads for about 12 miles. Lots of camping spots available both in campgrounds and dispersed. Lots of momma cows with calf. Drive up on the gorgeous Payette River with lots of camping on the river as well.
