Free. FREE. Free

This is a free dispersed camping area.. It is open all year, but only maintained from memorial day to labor day. There are about 15 sites. The sign says Barron Flats Dispersed. The road is ROUGH inside the camping area, so take it slow. A group could use the center open space. Sites are tucked into the treeline and it has water access.

Lake Koocanusa is amazing!

Lake Koocanusa (Koo as in Kootenai, Can as in Canada, USA as in America) is huge, blue, and beautiful. I want to go back so badly. It's such a remote and scenic destination.
