Camp Hosts are your best resource
While doing Adventure Cycling's Idaho Hot Springs Mountain Bike Route, my buddy and I came into Featherville pooped and worn out from the Phifer Creek hill. It was summer Friday evening. The only motel was full. Every dispersed camping site was chock full of RVs. The campgrounds along the river were all full. Finally, we saw the camp hosts at Chaparral. They took pity on us and helped in a myriad of ways. 3 Cheers for camp hosts Amy and Paul!
