Wallace RV Park accommodates pets at all 41 sites along Nine Mile Road, with both creekside and roadside camping options available. Full-hookup RV sites and tent areas welcome dogs throughout the compact riverside property. The campground provides clean restrooms, showers, and a picnic area where pets can accompany their owners. Adjacent brewery and restaurant facilities allow leashed pets in outdoor areas. Campers maintain their dogs on standard 6-foot leashes when outside vehicles or tents. The property borders a creek that offers pleasant background sounds but lacks designated pet swimming areas. Reviewers note the staff is particularly accommodating to campers with animals.
Lake Elsie Campground allows pets at its 11 first-come, first-served sites surrounding the alpine lake approximately 8 miles up a narrow dirt road from Kellogg. Dogs remain on leash due to frequent wildlife sightings, including bears that regularly pass through the campground in evenings. Visitors access numerous ATV and hiking trails suitable for exercising leashed dogs. North Fork Coeur D'Alene River offers free dispersed camping with pets in less developed settings. Dogs find ample swimming opportunities in the lake and river areas, though campers pack out all pet waste as these remote sites lack designated disposal facilities. The rough access roads at both dispersed locations require appropriate vehicles, especially when traveling with pets and their supplies.

TravelerGreat spot to stay especially if you’re visiting Wallace for a festival or stopover. Within walking distance to charming downtown. Very friendly staff. Some spots border a small river. Pet friendly. All gravel spots with cabins in other side of the river. No laundry but restaurant and bar on property.
LegendStandard RV park with full hookups, bathrooms, showers, basic store, and dog park. Decent amount of highway noise
LegendIt is hard to find many positives about this place. It has nothing to do with the people, but only about the "campground". It is a parking lot. No grass. Very tight. Lots of seasonal folks. There is a dog park. It Is right on the river. It is right on the bike trail. It is close to town. Beyond that. There is nothing that I deem attractive or desirable about this place. So for me personally, we passed. Please check out the photos and judge for yourself.
ScoutQuiet, spacious, beautiful smell of pine trees. Wouldn’t want to drive in after dark though. Two large dog parks. Park is gravel and you may need to do a little leveling, but it isn’t bad at all. Had enough room to park my 44’ rig and my truck right next to it. Would definitely come here again.
ScoutGreat new campground right outside of Plummer. There's been some sort of entertainment each night we've been here, fire dancers Friday and Saturday, a 4th of july bbq, 2 bands and fireworks at midnight tonight. There's several different sections to stay in, a dog park, lodge and laundry area. I would definitely come again.
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.
TravelerMade my reservation for an overnight stay over the phone on my way there. Staff was very kind and friendly. I came after the office was closed and a map was left for which tent site was mine. Very clean campgrounds, had a cute little dog park in it too. Ample amount of restrooms and showers available, that were spotless and well stocked.
RangerA beautiful small privately owned campground in the heart of Wallace Idaho. Right next to the city limits brew pub. Awful hook up sites, all very level sites! We did not have reservations and although the park was pretty full they were very accommodating and letting us use one of the smaller sites for our RV. The staff is incredible and the sound of the river is wonderful! Has good Wi-Fi especially if you’re sitting on the deck, and the water pressure is amazing. I would highly recommend it! If you happen to be in the area of Wallace this is a great stop.
TravelerClean park with beautiful creekside camping. Friendly employees and a convenient Brew Pub within walking distance. Grassy areas at sites and very pet friendly.
Road next the RV Park is very busy! It does slow down after dark but be prepared for road noise during daylight hours.

Hiking with dogs: Access numerous trails from Lake Elsie area. "This is one of the most spectacular campsites I have ever been to. It's off I-90, down a long (8ish mile) dirt road. ROAD IS NARROW, WINDY, AND STEEP," writes lili G.
Riverside sites: Many campgrounds offer premium spots adjacent to waterways. "We backed right above the creek. With the windows open I could hear it babbling all night. Pure bliss," shares Jennifer H. about Wallace RV Park.
Lake fishing opportunities: Alpine lakes provide excellent fishing. "We stay here often. Easy to drive up to. Any vehicle will do. Dirt road to the top where you will find a lovely little lake with 4-5 camp spots surrounding it.

Seasonal crowding: Summer weekends fill quickly at popular spots.

Site size limitations: Many forest campgrounds can't accommodate large rigs. "A beautiful small privately owned campground in the heart of Wallace Idaho. Awful hook up sites, all very level sites! We did not have reservations and although the park was pretty full they were very accommodating and letting us use one of the smaller sites for our RV," shares Kelly N.
Leveling requirements: Prepare for uneven terrain at forest service sites. "We were hesitant to stay as there were no trees in individual sites, but because if it's location in a narrow canyon it became shady and cooled down quickly in the afternoon. Clean showers! 3 cabins. Friendly staff," reports Kathy H.
Highway noise considerations: Some sites experience road noise. "Your right next to freeway very noisy. The AC couldn't drown out the traffic noise. Wore earplugs. Very nice people and a clean spot! Bonus the moose come to visit," mentions BoGwen J. about By the Way Campground.
