The only authentic 1880's underground gold mine tour in the Northwest!
**Winter or summer, the Silver Valley is a great place to vacation! **The Crystal Gold Mine, near Kellogg, Idaho was one of the first hard rock mines in the Silver Valley. Worked during the 1880’s; closed by hiding the mine, it was rediscovered in 1991, reclaimed in 1996, and opened as a tourist historical attraction.
The work was all done in candlelight by hand. The guided underground tour explains how they drilled with "Hand Steels" using "Single Jacks" and "Double Jacks" (Hammers), how they traced the quartz vein using 1880 methods, how they tested the vein for gold. Beautiful stalactite crystals of smithsonite in an array of colors coat the walls. Gold and wire silver can still be seen in the quartz vein.
Crystal Gold Mine can be reached by taking Idaho Exit 54 on Interstate 90 to the Miner's Memorial (located on the North side of the freeway). Turn left (west) on Silver Valley Road, and go two miles.
$60 - $70 / night

This 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
Traveler
Beautiful hideaway!
ScoutNice large tent sites. They also have a geodesic dome you can rent. Website was not set up yet.

Nice e Place right off 93, right on Clark’s Fork River, some Train Noise, but Picnic Table, Fire Pit and Restrooms
TravelerClean, cozy, quiet and literally 5 minutes to town & 1/4 mile to boat launch. Went Morel mushroom hunting and had farm fresh eggs, Cabin had all the amenities the the firepit is crazy cool!
This place is a hidden treasure for sure.

We 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.

Two weeks at Cascade was incredible. Small creek runs next to campsites .

Our friend's family has a campout here every year on Labor Day. The sites are large, and loop B has the most sites on the water. There is a boat launch and a dock, perfect for fishing. The bathrooms are SUPER clean and heated when it's chilly out. $18 for a Montana resident and $26 for out of staters. No cell service!!
TravelerWe are in Washington supposed to meet family in Montana and stay one night here on the way. Our truck broke down and won’t be fixed for about 3 weeks at dealership. We were told we couldn’t have a refund because of late notice. I tried to call and work it out politely with a basic no. I understand you could have rented but you are the business taking risk. Do NOT punish future renters for something out of their hands. Bad business. I would understand a week or more booked but one night is petty. Also we called Wednesday to cancel and was told someone would call back, I was told we didn’t cancel 48 hours or more and that is longer than 48 hours.
Legend
We did the mine tour two years ago and we’re happy to do it again. We noted back then we should return and try the rv sites one day & we did! The kids did some gem panning and found some gold specks. A neat insight into the mining that was so prevalent in these parts. Full hookups all worked great. Huge huge site with a brand brew picnic table and nice fire ring. Nice & small campground overall
TravelerWe’ve been camping at Sloway for years because I love hearing the trains all night long! If you don’t like train and highway noise, stay far away!
While my hubby flyfishes, I float on the Clark Fork. You can put in right from your campsite, the beach by the pullthru sites, Dry Creek or Superior, then float to your campsite/beach, St Regis, or 14 Mile/Ferry Landing.

Great place to soak up in the hot springs. They have a huge variety of separate pools to choose from. $35 for tent spot and $14 per person to soak in their hot spring pools. Beautiful views all around.
GuidePicnic table and fire rings. Not much privacy and close to the road. A lot of relational activities in the area for fishing, rafting, boating, hiking and even. Hot springs within an hour drive
ScoutGood place overall. They close the 21st of September and had the water already shut off on the 20th, which kind of sucked. But other than that the campsite was great and not too far from interstate, so convenient for my roodtrip.
GuideTrain noise in the morning and evening, I-90 traffic noise most of the day.
ScoutHosts were very accommodating when we let them know we were coming in very late. Clean, quiet, comfortable, relaxing, and beautiful views. Almost no light pollution at night, I’ve never seen the Milky Way like this before! Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Guide
THIS CAMPGROUND IS IN MONTANA, NOT IN IDAHO It’s 15 miles down a well maintained road with beautiful views of the cabinet mountains. I was there a Saturday in July and only two campsites were being used. There is a 1.7 mile “nature trail” that circles the lake, and there is also a trail head to a more substantial hike with reportable good views. The campground is free and has a 16 night maximum stay. There are two vault toilets at the campground supplied with tissue.
LegendWe ended up not staying here. We didn't know there were trains running all night long. It wouldn't be so bad without the whistle. If only we had earplugs, I think that would have helped a lot. Also, I am downloading a white noise app on my phone. With the two, we most likely could/would have stayed.
The campground itself is just what we look for. Beautiful setting. Wooded for shade. Generous spacing Between sights. Water, in this case the Clark Forks River. Nice host and campers. Shopping (in case we need provisions) without driving far, in this case St. Regis. If we xome back through this was, we will come prepared and give it a try.
LegendYes, 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. The Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes is right across the road. The Trail of the Hiawatha is very close. The town of Wallce is definitely worth going as they claim to be the center of the universe. The Pulaski Trail is definitely worth hiking and the story behind it is even more so.
LegendWe thought this State Park was a gem. Off the beaten path. Right on the lake. Boating. Fishing. Kayaking/paddleboard. Dark skies. Peaceful, except a little road noise. But hey, unless you want to backpack into the backcountry, most places will have some road noise. May I suggest ear plugs and/or a white noise machine. Problem solved. Also, very clean bathrooms and sites. Very nice hosts. Fairly generous sites. No AT&T for us and no wifi.. Extra boat parking available. Some hiking in the area.. We would go back in a heartbeat. About 55 min down Hwy 2 to the east is Kootenai Falls and historic swinging bridge. One of the prettiest places we've been. Worth the trip.
ScoutBeautiful campground that is free and up to 14 days. Crappy camp hosts and not clean bathrooms whatsoever
TravelerWe were able to move to a lake view site. Our site was private and peaceful. Campground had bathroom, showers, boat docks and a boat launch. We didn’t use most of the amenities, but we enjoyed our stay immensely. Plenty of space, a nice trail to the middle Thompson. Great for dogs too.
RangerThere's a public access gold panning area near this campground. There's also a nice little lake here. There is a pit toilet a short distance from the campground. The only water source is the pond but it's easy to get to. There is no cell phone service.
TravelerLovely campground and host, right by the river. Super loud train horns every couple of hours (all night!) ruined it for us. Maybe outside summer when you don’t need your windows open?
TravelerI stayed here overnight as it’s just down the road from Quinn’s hot springs.
It’s just a few spaces arranged in a loop next to the roadway. A couple clean bathrooms with pit toilets.
No ranger or host on-site, just put cash in an envelope and drop it off, similar to other USFS sites.
Traveler
Small RV park, with a few tent sites. Hosts were lovely people. Large clean bathrooms and showers. Park like environment.
Was warned a Moose family likes to walk through, but didn’t see them.
ScoutIt was a fond memory as a child. Going to the water pump and enjoying natural mineral water. It's nestled a little ways back so it can be missed easily if you are not paying attention but well worth the trip.
