"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 ."
"Even tho you could spend days exploring and playing in Farragut State Park, there are quite a few things to do outside of the park also."
"There is easy access to both Silverwood and Coeur D'Alene Idaho outside the campground. Apparently there is a former U.S. Naval brig turned museum at the park as well."
"Farragut State Park in scenic Northern Idaho is a huge campground that is open year-round."
$49 / night
"Located in northern Idaho and right on Spirit Lake, this campground has 31 RV sites that can accommodate various sizes of RVs."
"The wifi was available, but only close to the restaurant.
Full hookups are available for most sites. There is a private beach that was nice for swimming. Staff is friendly and helpful."
$10 - $75 / night
"The bonus here is that it is close to Sandpoint, one of our favorite places we visited in Idaho."
"However, there are some downsides to the spot and the campground that cannot be ignored. 1) It is very close to the highway so you hear the cars all day."
"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. The spaces are close and very open."
$12 - $29 / night
"This spot is very close to the main hiking trail, that leads around the lake and to the beach area. Probably about 15 feet away, down a slight hill."
"Super clean, great back-in spots for RVs, awesome walking trails around the lake."
"Being from Kentucky I now rank myself as a lightweight after visiting Farragut State Park and realizing the weather people camp during in Idaho!"
"My favorite group camps are Thimbleberry (horse friendly) and Locust Grove (lake views). But there are 7 group camps to choose from."
$39 - $83 / night
"Very cute campside with free cano’s to use"
"Even though the sites are small and close together, they are at different levels as you go up the hill combined with the sites and cabins being tucked under the giant pines, gives you a sense of privacy"
GuideThe site is overgrown. Trees were cleared several years ago and Bush has grown in. Sites are well spaced. This site is pave paved. Some of them have direct access to the river. Each has a picnic table, barbecue, and fire pit. Most sites are reserved. Three sites are first come first serve.
GuideBeautiful! Quiet River sign meadow. Approximately room for four camper setups. Couple of fire rings. Beautiful mountain side. Have to ford Creek to access. Just one party there on memorial weekend. All the campsites on the way up here were very crowded.
TravelerI spent 1 night here on my way to Coeur d’Alene. I might spend a couple more! Great elevated views of Rose Lake through the trees at the boat ramp. Several fishermen loading up after a day on the lake. A little noisy, but not distracting.
There is a vault toilet with its own parking space. I van camped there. Above me were 2 parking lots where 2-3 other campers were. Plenty of room to spread out and have decent privacy.
TravelerWe stayed at campsite 7 and had a great experience. The site was flat and spacious—easily fit both of our 12ft Gazelle tents with room to spare, and parking two vehicles was no issue. Bathrooms were very clean, and the individual showers were free, which was a great bonus. No mosquito or tick problems at all during our stay. It’s a family-friendly spot with decent privacy (6/10), low noise, and access to water, swimming, and a nearby boat launch down hill from campground. T-Mobile service worked well, and the site had a good mix of sun and shade. We’ll definitely be back.
GuideMy husband and I went to this location and the first couple sites were taken and we found a rd to the left near the end and took it with a site right to the left as you turned. We were trying to get comfortable but just couldn’t. Some people showed up and were lingering around us. It was the people from the beginning of the rd. It’s off. We hope someone else enjoys it but not for us. It was a beautiful ride up the mountain though.
ScoutWe showed up May 1st, the first day they opened! The campground has beautiful treed sites with lots of amenities. They are redoing the pool, and the bathrooms are very clean. Very friendly staff. Hiked the trail on the backside of the campground, which followed along a stream. There's nearby wildlife, including a resident moose. We didn't get to see her but enjoyed looking. We had planned on staying 1 night but loved the atmosphere, so we stayed 2 nights!
GuideSeveral spots with a vault toilet in the in the area. Fantastic access to the river for great fly fishing. Several spots in the trees and several in the more open areas. Vault toilet is to the right as you pull in about 1/8 mile away from pull off. During the summer float months, you can find a large dumpster at the entrance to throw away your garbage.
GuideWe stayed the night in January and had a late check-in. Paid $69 and had access to full hookups. If you are not there before 5 pm they will not share the code for the bathrooms, etc so beware! Neighbors are told not to give out the code so we had quite a time trying to get in! The public building has bathrooms, laundry, pool, small store and a nice lounge. Lots are quite close together but it is neatly laid out with a few dog parks.
ScoutThe wind had torn part of our roof and we had to find a place to stay a few nights, quickly and tarp before rain came. They accommodated our stay and even lent us a ladder to use while repairing the damage.
