The Best Camping Near North Fork, Idaho

Stayed at wagonhammer campground in September. Great location &amp; super clean! Our campsite was right next to the river. Dog friendly and there is a dog island that your fur kid can run around off leash! They also have bathrooms, showers (on demand hot water), laundry mat, fire pits,and a small store in the office. 

The staff is super friendly! Great spot for my quick couple day trip to the hot springs! 

Great spot! 

If you want complete solitude from the internet and TV this is the place for you to reconnect with nature. (see video)

Being new RV'ers we didn't do our due diligence before booking, we went by pictures and the park did their part.  They said poor internet and poor cell service we just didn't believe them.  There was internet at the office but it was 56k speed.  

Having to run our company from the road, traveling with three kids under 5, 3 dogs and a cat, all over 5 we need to be able to work. 

Here's what we loved:

*   Beautiful and clean
*   Quiet and close to the river
*   Incredible dog area
*   Level parking
*   Staff was incredible

We weren't fond of:

*   No cell service (AT&amp;T &amp; Sprint)
*   Poor WiFi

We gave this a 4-star review because it's exactly what it said it was and the staff was very kind.

If you are a digital nomad and stay here then go to Salmon (30-minute drive), turn left, and a few blocks down on your left is the public library.  It's the best wifi you'll find and you can access it from the street.

Not for Digital Nomads

Wonderful location with very little wifi services.
If you want to relax in a very nice, park setting, surrounded by mountains, this would be your place.

Big spaces in the middle area.
Smaller spots on the river.
Modest but competent shower and laundry room.

Would stay again.

Small and quaint with charming location

This is a cozy little campground about 20 minutes outside Salmon, ID. It's located directly on the Salmon River. It's a well-run site, is clean and has full hookups, laundry, a store, etc... If you're traveling north along the Salmon River, it's a good place to spend the night before heading up over the pass towards Lolo and Missoula, MT. No cell service, but serviceable WiFi, and its location on the river is excellent for anglers and those looking to enjoy the river. Spaces are a little tight, and there are definitely other boondocking sites along the river in this area, Wagonhammer provides a nice spot for those looking for the comforts of home while nestled in the wilderness. It's a quiet, calm, and safe place for travelers staying in everything from tents to enormous RV's.

Nestled in by the Salmon River

From the minute we arrived we loved this place and decided to cancel other reservations and stay here

Great park

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.
