"It's near the Idaho and Montana border. I found plenty of time to just chill while looking for a more long term spot."
"Is a little close to highway and there are trains all night, but the whole valley is like that. Tall trees on site nice and shady. Enjoyed our stay!"

"Yes, this campground is right off I 90 and yes there is road noise BUT where else can you camp, visit a mine and pan for gold. Such rich ( pun ) history. Really great host. Tree shaded spots."

"Large clean bathrooms and showers. Park like environment. Was warned a Moose family likes to walk through, but didn’t see them."
ScoutNice little campground next to I90 with bike trails right across the street. Lots of highway noise and our site was a pull thru but not a lot of space. You can take a tour of the actual gold mine and see some relics
TravelerGreat amenities and well taken care of camp ground. The water is beautiful. Would definitely stay here again.
ScoutDevil's Elbow campground is nestled in The Coeur D'Alene National Forest, along the Coeur d'Alene River. It's a Federally maintained campground which provides water, garbage facilities, and vault toilets. It's a smaller campground, fairly private campsites, reservations recommended.
GuideYour right next to freeway very noisy. The AC couldn’t drown out the traffic noise. Wore earplugs. Very nice people and a clean spot! Bonus the moose come to visit.
RangerWe booked this campground as a stop on our way through and to the northwest. You can’t beat access from I-90. It’s so close you will listen to traffic your whole stay. That does not bother us at night, but kind of spoils the peaceful day. The spaces are big and open. There seem to be a lot of long timers but that’s fine. No laundry or bathhouse. Would probably pass next time and keep going to Cour d’alane to find a something a little nicer as a vacation spot. But if you need a place to stay for a night or two this will work ok. Very accessible. Young man at check-in very friendly. If you need to stop for the night and want FHU instead of a state park or rec area this place works.
ScoutIt's near the Idaho and Montana border. I found plenty of time to just chill while looking for a more long term spot. I did laundry at the lakeside laundry mat for less than $5 got some honey and chocolate at the gift shop, some fresh produce and essentials at the Sinclair station, and enjoyed nearby recreation spots for the scenery. The motel is too rich for me. If you are in transit and looking to recharge, there's plenty of affordable and free resources. If you are looking to stay to yourself you'll be alright, if your social, people are pretty friendly, just don't hang around public spaces after 7 if you don't like rowdy noises.
TravelerThis campsite is perfect for a simple and free camping spot. Doesn’t have any hook ups but is right on the water and you can park your boat. We caught many fish and enjoyed swimming right on the river
ScoutNice large tent sites. They also have a geodesic dome you can rent. Website was not set up yet.
ScoutWe didnt stay here as when we arrived at 9 pm, the office area and road to get to rv park were way to tight for our 40 ft fight wheel. When calling to let them know, no one answered the phone or returned our calls for two days. I finally was called back by a man that was so condescending and rude I could hardly believe he would talk to me like he did. I he pretty much called me a liar. My husband and I have been in 34 states in the last 2 years full time RV so we know to not get ourselves in a spot that we cant get out of. Lack of experience is not the case here.
