6 campsites on the Upper Salmon River. Fishing for trout and steelhead in the river, with a boat ramp for access. This was one of Lewis and Clark`s campsites during their historic exploration of the west
This 2.5-acre access offers primitive camping below US Highway 93. There is a beach area at low water along the Salmon River. A small boat could be launched here with difficulty. The road is unimproved and steep. Camp trailers and RVs are not recommended.

Simple campground along Salmon River--beautiful setting, with maybe 5 spaces, not all of which are marked well but do have picnic tables to indicate. Also a vault toilet at loop campground. Buggy, even with river flowing and slight wind. Free, which is nice. Can hear US93 traffic, but not bad considering neighbor ran generator which drowned out some noise.
South of dillon montana. Where Sacagawea met her brother Cameawhait, with Lewis and Clark. Many many spots. Some are covered tables boating and fishing. Free 14 days
7 spots off the beaten path, small creek lehmi. On the Lewis and Ckark trail. Bathroom is ADA.
Pretty small and basic campground. I counted what I think was 9 sites? There are no numbered sites, just designated fire rings to indicate the different sites I suppose. One large accesible pit toilet is available. Most sites back up to the river which is pretty nice. FREE and pretty quiet for the Saturday night I stayed - 4 open spots at 8:30pm. Only downside is it’s rather close to the highway and you can hear cars driving by pretty regularly.
Stoped for an overnight on our way to glacier. Clean and nice park.
The management is absolutely incredible! This place is perfect. Access to river to look at great! Renamed to Andreas on the River.
The management helped us get in and made sure we were good. Super 5 stars! Great location near River for rafting. (30 min drive)
The other visitors are a little opinionated and like to share their opinions on your RV.
Super loved it all day! Stay there!
Dog park area is not fenced in. Nice place for them to do business.
Beautiful grass in most of the spots. Fire rings, bathrooms near by. We have a 26 ft TT and this was perfect right off highway. Only stayed one day due to it being a little warm and we were heading up north. Did have shade and it cooled off at night . Lots of room for our dogs to run by site without bothering others.
The camp grounds were not busy, and no mosquitoes right now. Fishing was slow but we caught fish. Saw lots of animals even a video of a Grizzly not but 3 miles from the camp grounds. Another camper had the video of the Grizzly from the night before!
Pulled over mid day to spend the afternoon and night. We took the second to last spot on the river side. Arrived at noon on a Tuesday, departed at 8am next day and were the only campers. Very easy river access from site, but water is moving quickly. We walked to the other side of the bridge and let our dogs jump in where the water was calmer. Overall really clean and well maintained space. The only thing that will prevent us from coming back is the cottonwood tree droppings. They’re everywhere and very sticky, so if you have long haired dogs, it’s a nightmare to get them out.
Awesome campground, the camp host is friendly and making rounds to ensure the bathrooms are stocked and that everyone is enjoying their time. We camped at number 5 last time, and we just got done camping at number 15 for the weekend. Crystal park is not thst far and the Wise river is right after it. Also vheck out Elkhorn hotsprings th a ts the next turn for a natural spring nad suana. Can't wait to camp here again. The picture below will show you our camp set up sadly Teo fridns had to take off earlier before photos. We easily fit 4 tents and had 2 dogs with us. The site provides shared food storages, also vualt toilets, and drinkable water at the faucets through out the camp ground. It was 25 a night for 3 vehicles so we spent 50 in total. Another perk if you need or forgot something go to Ma's store it has a bit of everything. It's just on the other side of the lodge in Grasshopper.
After riding ID75, it was time to find camp. Sure there are a bazillion to choose from along the highway, but I wanted to soak in the highly reviewed waters. I was NOT disappointed!!! Beautiful lawn, one of the freshest hot springs I’ve visited, and great campers. Side not: this place was recently purchased/handed over to the Idaho State Parks system.
The campground is very nice, it was clean and had 2 water taps available. You can hear the creek at night, which is a huge plus for me. They have mutiple food storages available that are shared. There wasn't any firewood that was easy to find. I recommend bringing your own or running to Ma's County Market. For kiln dried wood, it doesn't last long, but you can cook with it.. The cost was 15.00 USD a night with 5 dollars more per vehicle. Site 5 could park 4 vehicles easy. The rest can only fit 2. Bigger parites can go to the group campground in the front. Number five could park about six cars easy. Also you could pitch about 7 to 9 tents on it.
I would not recommend end of July/ August. Temps 100 and no breeze. Plenty to see if traveling in vehicle like bighorn sheep, whitetail deer and bald eagles. Recommend a visit to the firefighter memorial at Indian river FS training camp.
Nice little campsite near a small, quiet fishing lake. About 5 sites here with a pit toilet. No cell service. 10 mile rocky road in, but saw a fifth wheel, so its not impassable by any means! There’s also South Van Houten on the other side, but I can’t imagine this serene little patch of heaven gets too full. Saw folks swimming, fishing, and boating in the lake.
Nice small camping area with about 5 sites, complete with picnic tables and fire rings with grills. It was a fairly long drive down a somewhat road but wide gravel road, but I did see a truck with a big fifth wheel on it, so you can definitely do it!
Fishing in lake, just no motorized boats. Pit toilets. Pretty area!
We were the only ones there, each spot is super private, there aren’t many spots. Ours was right on the river and we could easily go down and swim from our site. Fully dispersed no services, no cell signal (verizon). Only con is that it is close enough to hwy 93 that you can see and hear cars going by, but it’s not a super busy road.
Great view of the mountains and plenty of sites. Wasn’t too busy but others were around. There were bathrooms and some sites had fire rings. 93 is close so there is some mild highway noise but nothing unbearable. Bathroom was reasonably clean and stocked with toilet paper. I had full bars with Verizon (the cell tower was within line of sight) but my friend with t-mobile had no service whatsoever. Overall a nice inviting site.
Landed the spot on the far right side of the campsite, right on the river. Absolutely beautiful with all the leaves changing. Nothing like falling asleep to the sound of the river. Minimal sound from the road.
Large, flat sites - many of which are right on the water. Gorgeous views with the lakes nestled between mountains! Plenty of space between sites. Great hiking trail. We didn't fish, but we watched others catch many trout out of kayaks with fly rods. There were about ten sites (and the cabin) full while we were there over a weekend. Vault toilets. No hook-ups. Long, bumpy road going in and out.
Awesome little campground next to Grasshopper Creek. There aren’t many sites here but we were lucky enough to get two. Each space has plenty of room for the kids to run around and play. Caught a few fish on the fly too. Mosquitos were bad, no surprise there with the creek close by. The ghost town is a must see!
This is a nice and convenient place to stop. Right along the Salmon river. RT. 93 is close so some traffic noise. Vault toilets. No dump or water. Lots of sites to the left and right after crossing the bridge.
Many large and well spaced pull through sites, all on gravel. Very little shade. Water, sewer and electric all good. Easy in and out. Access the OHV trails from here.
We stayed two nights in this delightful peaceful campground. The owner was incredibly nice, accommodating and kept this place so well-maintained. Extremely clean nice laundry room with coin operated machines, central dump area the sites are just water and electric, very nice grass around the gravel sites perfect for dogs. The vistas are spectacular, the river is crystal clear over rocks and floating down on either and include plateable kayak, raft, or canoe is very doable. Restaurant across the street that has a pretty patio really really nice town. This is a more remote town but an excellent stop. We will come here again.
So close to a five star campground if it were not for the swarming mosquitoes anywhere in the shade. Grounds were well taken care of, owners so very nice and helpful, showers and restrooms spotless and free, great little laundry room, and cute gift shop. Lots of boat launches up and down river for kayaking.very peaceful. One down side was the lack of nice swimming area in the campground. Spots were side by side so little in the way of privacy. Wi-Fi was weak but worked. No cell service for Verizon. Nearest town with groceries etc. is in Salmon so stock up before you go.
We set up our daughter in our Super C here for 2 months while she worked in nearby Salmon during the busy season. We were so happy with the beautiful scenery, quiet grounds, and excellent service from the owner. If she ever needed anything, they were happy to help. There is a clean laundry room, showers, and bathrooms onsite, and more than enough space for a 40 foot RV. There are shade trees, some grass sites, some landscape rock sites, picnic tables, a gas firepit, and an onsite mini-store if you need. The owner waited for us until we arrived, helped us get our bearings, and then grew to be a friend. If you are needing to camp(even in a tent!) anywhere near Salmon, Idaho, you need to go and see Stewart at Elk Bend RV Park. Say hi to the deer that roam the area, too, or walk across the street and listen to the Salmon River. Just a beautiful area! Sites with full hookups and not. Would not hesitate to recommend Elk Bend RV Park.
Pet Friendly!
From the minute we arrived we loved this place and decided to cancel other reservations and stay here
This place is a true gem. Getting to experience hot springs without hiking to them is so nice. The staff are friendly and accommodating. Such a peaceful spot. We ended up staying an extra night!
