Perfect for what it is

It's a small campground near the tiny town of Kooskia. We stayed here to be close to the part of the South Fork of the Clearwater River which is known for it's Steelhead Run. There are some permanent residents here with some rundown trailers but they were all nice and waved hello. It is quiet and right on the river with the ability to walk down to the river though not from every site and it is a rocky bank. The owners are very very nice and helped us back in when we arrived after dark. There are pay showers (bring quarters) and clean flush toilets. The website wasn't working when we were looking it up but they do respond to phone calls and messages left. We will most likely stay here next year for the Steelhead Run and hopefully have better luck! There are some pull through sites as well as back in sites and a small tent area. It is close to the highway but if you are near the river the sound is almost completely drowned out.
