West Mountain Campground — Lake Cascade State Park

Lake Cascade State Park's West Mountain Campground sits directly on the water, with sites close enough to the lake that kayaking and fishing are accessible from the campground itself. The single loop is fairly small, which keeps the layout compact. Sites have reasonable spacing and moderate tree cover. One consistent note from campers: West Mountain Road runs alongside the campground, and traffic noise carries through even at night. RVs up to 35 feet are accommodated, and reservations are available through Idaho Parks and Recreation. For a different configuration nearby, Poison Creek Campground — Lake Cascade State Park is 0.4 miles south along the same stretch of lake, and camping near Lake Cascade State Park turns up additional options managed within the same park system.

Guests commonly noted spacious, clean sites in a cozy lakefront setting. Traffic noise from the adjacent road was mentioned as a concern, though experiences varied.

Decent spot

Pretty good campsite. Fire pit and picnic table at the site (site #150). Sites are quite close together so hopefully you have good neighbors.

Solid Place To Relax

We really enjoyed testing our new RV to West Mountain! Just load up the grub and hit the road!

The camp sites were clean, quiet and very close to the water. We are planning to come back in the summer and bring friends for a nice trip of kayaking and fishing right off the beach.

Nice spot

I’ve always wanted to stay in this stretch of Lake Cascade. Camp ground was fairly small with only one loop, made it very cozy. Sites had plenty of room and an ok amount of trees. Camp ground is right on the lake. Only real downfall other than no power (if you need it) is that the campground sits right off of west mountain rd. And there is quite a bit of noise from traffic even at night. Otherwise we really enjoyed it.
