Welcome!
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 Vista owned campground is first come first served. No amenities, no cell service. Pack in pack out. Camp host at the campground. Fishing, boating hiking. Beautiful area. There is a small store top of the hill. Nearest town is 10 miles away. Did I mention it is a free campground!. 14 day limit. Nearest dump station is in Trout Creek. Good gravel road can handle big rigs easily.

We love going camping and fishing at Sylvan Lake, always wanted to try the Yurts but also book out, great place for family .
Legend
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!!

Farragut is a fantastic 5 star campground. Currently staying here at $40 a night. Went to book two more nights and found out they now charge out of state people double. My September stay will now be in Montana and I will skip Idaho completely. No gas, no food, no nothing.
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.

We 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.

Sylvia Lake is tucked back into the Flathead Forest. Wild fires have burned through this area leaving a path of dead tree stand as a reminder of mother nature’s fury. It’s oddly beautiful as the new growth is finding its resilient way back.
The road to the lake is long, winding, often rutted and dusty, BUT the lake beckons to be explored. There is designated camping as well as a few dispersed spots that have been created over time. You will find no amenities and you are quite a distance from any sort of cell service or stores, so come prepared.
The sketchy rope swing was left untried but the crawdads were plentiful! If you want to disconnect and want something other than the typical Montana camp, Sylvia is just right.
LegendGilmore Campground Farragut State Park, Idaho Lake Pend Oreille
Who Knew?!!
I crossed the Montana / Idaho state line this morning and was pleasantly surprised at the AMAZING scenery . I’m from way over in Kentucky so maybe this is a best kept secret or it’s just not well advertised but NORTHERN IDAHO IS BEAUTIFUL!! I mean, someone says Idaho, I think potatoes/ farmland. So well played Idahoans! I stopped for an overnight at Farragut State Park. The staff was AMAZING! Friendly , informative and took the time to see if there were any cancellations or early departures in the crowded campgrounds. The campgrounds are well laid out in that there are many sites but they are situated in a way that still gives each site space for “stuff”. My site didn’t have a lot of shade but the breeze was enough that it was comfortable all day, temps in the 80’s. We may have hit the end of the mowing cycle or maybe they leave the grass rough cut due to it being dry. Our site was otherwise very well maintained. When I drove in the camp hosts were actually across the lane SWEEPING one of the cement pads clear of gravel. Full hook up, Pit toilets and a few shower houses. The shower house is on the other side of Gilmore CG. The sites over there have older trees and more shade. The general park map is lacking on the hiking trail venue. If you want to hike and in my opinion you do, see about getting a trail map or take a picture at one of the information stands. Even that map was not great, but useable. We took a stroll down through the woods and when we got to Lake Pend Oreille guess what?!! .... IT WAS AMAZING!! If you want a hike along the lake with easy to moderate difficulty 70 along Idlewilde Bay is excellent, it loops around by the parking lots and the shore. Plenty of spots for the dogs to get in and to swim. Once again there are trails coming and going and the trail markings are sometimes confusing but if you have a good sense of direction you’ll be fine.
Bayview, ID is nearby with a laundromat , grocery , etc. On site there is a small museum with the history of the area , a model plane field , a Tree to Tree Adventure Park and of course water activities galore.
TravelerAt first we were a little taken aback by all the train noises (the puppy wasn’t too excited about it) but they didn’t run too late into the night. Close to town and when we stayed (early October) there were plenty of open RV sites. It almost felt like we had the place to ourselves. The facilities were well maintained and included laundry, bathrooms, and pay showers.
ScoutBridge was under construction and could not get to north shore so stayed here. The host made late check in for us easy. Had full hookups. Nice level gravel site. 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!
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.
TravelerBeautiful surrounding area, with wooded grounds create a quiet and peaceful stay. Long, pull through RV sites that are over 80 feet long. Tenting sites. The prices are well below the competition. I will be staying here any time I come through this area.
ScoutI love this RV Park. It’s amazing. We have been coming here for years and wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else. It’s very clean and well kept. The staff is extremely friendly and easy going. We look forward to our return next year!
ScoutBeautiful campground that is free and up to 14 days. Crappy camp hosts and not clean bathrooms whatsoever
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
Traveler
Clean, 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.
TravelerBeautiful hideaway!
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.
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.
TravelerNice clean campground. All road leading throughout are paved and spots are nicely spaced. Most have electric hookups and most are reservations. Great place to take a boat as some spots come with a boat slip as well. We had fun and will be doing it again soon!
RangerRelatively small campground, nice and wooded, but RVs galore. If you don’t have a boat there isn’t much to do here but nearby there is hiking. We just stayed overnight spontaneously but it was a good state park.
TravelerCame here for mother’s day camping trip. Very nice, clean and open camp ground with lake access . Instead of camping in the main campground we found a few spots ( that seemed to be part of the park) 1/4 mile south that had 4-5 spaces away from everyone else. No picnic tables but had a fire ring with grill. Only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars was because it is right off of the highway. I’m sure traffic would be annoying mid summer.
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.
Guide
Nice place to stop over for the night or a few days. There is a gold mine tour and gift shop on the property. Convenient to a small town and a lot of nature to see in the area. Very friendly staff and the mine tour is well worth it. Especially for kids. Will definitely stop here again.
LegendThis little camping spot off of interstate 90 is perfect for all ages. A couple of dozen small pull in, and pull- through, sites that have full hookups and tire rim fire pits. A bit of shade and a bit of noise from the interstate.
But…. there 40 minutes tour of the mine is awesome!! And, it comes with an opportunity to pan for gold and gems.
Don’t count on striking it rich with gold but you will certainly leave entertained and with a great bit of mining education!
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 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
