      Cute RV park

      Cute little RV park off the highway. Very quite with a small lake. Families can enjoy fishing, swimming, yard games, fire pit, and very dog friendly with a fenced dog park. We are tent campers and had a nice spot on lake. only a few tent sites. Super clean bathrooms with hot shower.

      Round Lake State Park Campground

      1st solo RV camping trip

      Beautiful & clean campground with friendly staff. Quiet area and not over crowded. Pet friendly. Lots of trail hiking and a pretty lake for kayaking, swimming, etc. My only complaint was not enough grassy areas and all campgrounds were just dirt. So keeping RV clean was difficult with myself and dogs going in and out despite having mats to wipe off feet/shoes.

      Riley Creek Campground

      Great C.o.e. campground

      We stayed here for a week. The sites are large,with plenty of shade. Partial hook ups.(no sewer) Some sites can be dark under the canopies of fir,cedar and pine trees. Great swim area for families. And a boat launch. There is also a pet area,and you can take your dogs for a swim. Free shorts and very clean bathrooms. Some highway noise but not too bad.

      Big Eddy Campground

      Great hidden gem

      My wife and I stayed here while motorcycle camping with our cat in July 2019.  Loved the days we stayed.  Our campsite was situated so we had good solar reception.  Fire ring was good, as was the picnic table.  Discovered a spring just a few miles west of the campground where water was easily available.  The poor road condition was the only bad part.

      Trestle Creek RV Park

      Owners are snobby.

      This campground is in an older couple’s front yard. It’s got a pretty running creek called Trestle Creek running through there yard off of the mountain side. Which they have their property on. They also live on said property, so they are always watching... Beware! Lol Sooo.. They kicked us out because the guy’s wife saw our kitty was on top of another guest’s car... Soo bad! oh! and the other reason: my cat was catching mice and killing them, and we would pick them up as soon as we would see them. Umm.. isn’t that what cats do..? Idk... and they would always complain we were awake all nite when we stayed up til one or two am. We (mom and I) were staying here for 3 months. And were perfectly quiet. They just thought it was odd or something for some reason... I don’t get it. We paid to be there, long term, we’re not keeping anyone up.. what’s the big deal? So ya, and the spots are super duper close next to each other. Like within two feet... yeah.. no privacy. I felt weird sitting outside in my spot with a friend in chairs even. And they frown upon having any visitors come see you. So it’s more of a rich, quiet, pretentious, older people’s camping place.

      Riley Creek Campground

      Beautiful CoE campground with many activity options

      General: 67-site US Army Corps of Engineers campground in two loops along the Pend Oreille River. All sites are water and electric and have gravel driveways. 

      Site Quality: All sites were nicely wooded, level and spacious. The roads are paved but the sites themselves are gravel. A BBQ grill/fire pit and large picnic table complete each site. 

      Bath/shower house: There is one ADA-accessible all-in-one bath/shower plus regular restrooms. Clean if a little dated. I don’t take long showers but in the middle of mine, the water turned ice cold for the remainder of my shower, however, hubby did not have the same experience! 

      Activities/Amenities: Water activities including boating, fishing, and swimming. Non-water activities include paths, including one around the campground that is approximately 1.4 miles, nice for walking, running, or biking. Partially paved and partially gravel. Other activities include two playgrounds (one for younger children, one for older), volleyball, horseshoes, sport court, and a “doggie island” (pet area). Between the restrooms are two dishwashing sinks with hot water, a nice amenity. There is also a dump station. 

      We were still setting up when the host came by to give us a map, remind us there was a fire ban, and see if we had any questions or concerns. We stay at many CoE campgrounds and this one certainly measures up!

      Snowberry Campground — Farragut State Park

      Something for Everyone

      Farragut State Park, Idaho Lake Pend Oreille

      I crossed the Montana / Idaho state line this morning and was pleasantly surprised at the AMAZING scenery . I’m from way over in Kentucky so maybe this is a best kept secret or it’s just not well advertised but NORTHERN IDAHO IS BEAUTIFUL!! I mean, someone says Idaho, I think potatoes/ farmland. So well played Idahoans! I stopped for an overnight at Farragut State Park. The staff was AMAZING! Friendly , informative and took the time to see if there were any cancellations or early departures in the crowded campgrounds. The campgrounds are well laid out in that there are many sites but they are situated in a way that still gives each site space for “stuff”.

      Several areas to pick from. Group areas and campgrounds, shade and locality. Sites were very well maintained. Full hook up, Pit toilets and a few shower houses.

      The general park map is lacking on the hiking trail venue. If you want to hike and in my opinion you do, see about getting a trail map or take a picture at one of the information stands. Even that map was not great, but useable. We took a stroll down through the woods and when we got to Lake Pend Oreille guess what?!! .... IT WAS AMAZING!! If you want a hike along the lake with easy to moderate difficulty 70 along Idlewilde Bay is excellent, it loops around by the parking lots and the shore. Plenty of spots for the dogs to get in and to swim. Once again there are trails coming and going and the trail markings are sometimes confusing but if you have a good sense of direction you’ll be fine.

      There is a model airplane field, bird watching area, and areas to park and unload horses and llamas.

      Bayview, ID is nearby with a laundromat , grocery , etc. On site there is a small museum with the history of the area , a Tree to Tree Adventure Park and of course water activities galore.

      Gilmore Campground — Farragut State Park

      AWESOME CAMPGROUND

      Gilmore Campground Farragut State Park, Idaho Lake Pend Oreille

      Who Knew?!!

      I crossed the Montana / Idaho state line this morning and was pleasantly surprised at the AMAZING scenery . I’m from way over in Kentucky so maybe this is a best kept secret or it’s just not well advertised but NORTHERN IDAHO IS BEAUTIFUL!! I mean, someone says Idaho, I think potatoes/ farmland. So well played Idahoans! I stopped for an overnight at Farragut State Park. The staff was AMAZING! Friendly , informative and took the time to see if there were any cancellations or early departures in the crowded campgrounds. The campgrounds are well laid out in that there are many sites but they are situated in a way that still gives each site space for “stuff”. My site didn’t have a lot of shade but the breeze was enough that it was comfortable all day, temps in the 80’s. We may have hit the end of the mowing cycle or maybe they leave the grass rough cut due to it being dry. Our site was otherwise very well maintained. When I drove in the camp hosts were actually across the lane SWEEPING one of the cement pads clear of gravel. Full hook up, Pit toilets and a few shower houses. The shower house is on the other side of Gilmore CG. The sites over there have older trees and more shade. The general park map is lacking on the hiking trail venue. If you want to hike and in my opinion you do, see about getting a trail map or take a picture at one of the information stands. Even that map was not great, but useable.

      Caribou Campground

      Primitive!

      This campground is as primitive as you can yet, yet beautiful. Although situated right off the road, this spot tucks in next to the creek and provides great access to northern Yaak area and lots of wildlife and hiking. The location does not include water (other than the creek) but does have pit toilets.


    Guide to Naples

    Camping options near Naples, Idaho include wooded sites within the Idaho Panhandle National Forest. At elevations around 2,000 feet, the area experiences cool summer nights with temperatures dropping into the 40s even during July and August. The region features mostly coniferous forests with several waterways offering riverside camping spots throughout the warmer months.

    What to do

    Hiking trails: Roman Nose Lakes trails offer moderate terrain suitable for day hikes with pets. "We really enjoyed the hike to the upper lakes as well," notes one camper at Roman Nose. The area includes three lakes accessible by connecting trails of varying difficulty.

    Fishing opportunities: Pack River provides several spots for anglers seeking trout and other species. "There are several dispersed sites up here along Pack River. Good for horses, camping and solitude," according to a review of Pack River Dispersed Site. Fishing licenses required and available in nearby Bonners Ferry.

    Water recreation: Paddleboarding and swimming available at several locations including Lake Pend Oreille. "Sam Owen is a nice place to camp for a few days, or spend some time on the water. Pend Oreille is a beautiful lake and is a great place for boats, kayaks, and paddle boards," shares a visitor about the lake access points.

    What campers like

    Private wooded sites: Tent campers appreciate secluded spots at several campgrounds. "We had a huge, level spot (#56) at the end of the campground. A little tight to get into with a 40' 5th wheel, but doable," notes a visitor at Sam Owen Campground, highlighting the spacious sites even for larger rigs.

    Clean facilities: Many campgrounds maintain exceptional bathroom facilities. "By far the cleanest, most well kept campground I've ever visited," writes a camper at Meadow Creek Campground. The well-maintained vault toilets and grounds receive consistent praise from visitors.

    Wildlife viewing: Deer and other wildlife frequently visit camping areas. "It is known for its huge friendly deer population!! You will see them everywhere!! Which is fun for out-of-towners!" exclaims one camper about the local wildlife encounters that create memorable experiences, especially for children.

    What you should know

    Train noise: Several campgrounds experience railroad disturbances. "Train honks at a crossing. Didn't notice it at night as much as morning and evening," reports a camper at Bonner County Fairgrounds. Meadow Creek Campground also notes trains "blasting their horns at 8:40PM and 12:40AM."

    Reservation needs: Popular sites fill quickly during summer months. "It was very busy on the weekend during summer, so be sure to plan ahead," advises a visitor about weekend camping. Weekday arrivals offer better chances for securing first-come, first-served sites.

    Road conditions: Forest service roads often become rough during wet seasons. "The road is long and VERY washboarded, but you have lots of great options if you plan on doing some hiking in the area," warns a Roman Nose visitor about access challenges that may impact vehicle travel.

    Tips for camping with families

    Lake activities: Multiple water access points provide family-friendly recreation. "They have paddle boats, kayaks, paddle boards and a floating trampoline. The little lake is full of catfish and turtles that you can feed," describes a visitor at Blue Lake RV Resort, highlighting features beyond basic swimming that engage children.

    Wildlife education: Prepare children for wildlife encounters with proper safety protocols. "I got to do yoga by the lake at sunrise, not too buggy and I saw lots of turtles," notes a camper about the wildlife viewing opportunities that create educational moments for families.

    Site selection: Choose sites away from water for families with small children. "All the sites are nice and private with lovely trees and open grassy space between them," explains a camper about the layout that allows parents to find sites matching their supervision needs.

    Tips from RVers

    Size limitations: Many forest service campgrounds cannot accommodate larger rigs. "I wouldn't recommend this campground, especially if you're hoping for a lakeside experience. The campground is actually a decent distance away, and it's not easy to access," warns a visitor to Roman Nose about challenges for RV access.

    Hookup availability: Full hookup sites limited to specific campgrounds. "We have a mix of sites, some full hookup pull through that are all side by side without much space, and some more nicely spaced water and electric sites amongst the trees," describes a Blue Lake RV Resort visitor about the varied site options.

    Dump station access: Plan accordingly as not all campgrounds offer on-site dumping. "Dump station close. Easy bike ride to Sandpoint with lots of bike paths," notes a Bonner County Fairgrounds camper about the convenient facility placement for RV waste management.
