"Stopped by on my way through Montana in May."
"Very cute campground, quiet, no service, right along the beautiful Yaak River and within walking distance to Yaak Falls."
"The trail down to the river was great, the boys had a blast riding their bikes on it."
"We wanted a quiet campground with access to the Kootenay River in which they had both. So one of the owners let us check out the sites and trail to the river."
"Also, great proximity to trails, beautiful drives, and even some beer on the Yaak River!"
"We pulled in around 2 PM on a weekend and had no problem finding a spot. This campground works best for tents but you could pull in with a small trailer."
"Close to town and 10 miles away from a great hiking trail too. Would come back."
"Fun note: There is a self serve car was just outside the entrance that has a bay for RVs. We don't see that often. The not as good is the train and some road noise, but in this area, most CG do."
"This is the Bull River Valley of western Montana after all."
"It is close to the Ross Cedars just up the narrow road. This is a wooded campground where not much light gets in. But, it feels woodsy, no claustrophobic."
$30 - $116 / night
"There are beautiful lakeside campsites with access to the lake. Unfortunately, those were all reserved when we stayed there. This place can get busy in the summertime, so you reserve early."
"It has a lot more to offer too though, as the lakeside location is pretty great. You can rent paddle boards and head out onto the water. Apparently this is one of the deepest lakes in the country."
"Be prepared to take a narrow dirt road off the highway to get to the campground (I had no issues with my 18 foot trailer). Had 2 bathrooms and a fresh water faucet."
"Several are on a hill next to each other beside the parking lot. 4 sites sit right along the lake."
ScoutThe park itself is in a fabulous location for activities such as fishing, tubing, kayaking, etc., but the roads are so heavily rotted that it makes it very difficult for any vehicle to navigate the entrance. On the lower reaches of the park near the river. The ground is essentially dried up river silt and when it gets wet, it’s thicker than snot. I personally would never access this park without four-wheel-drive.
GuideThe Gilmore campground was clean and well-managed and we found the camp hosts super friendly and helpful. The campground has vault toilets and a few flush toilets as well as private showers with hot water. Campsites were well spaced from one another. The campground has a big green for frisbee, horseshoes, etc.
Farragut State Park has abundant hiking, water activities and interesting interpretive exhibits. And Lake Pend Oreille is simply breathtaking.
We had limited Verizon connectivity — 2 bars at most.
The village of Bayview, a few minutes’ drive or vigorous bike ride away, has a well-stocked little mercantile that carries all the necessities.
As out-of-staters, we didn’t mind paying twice the in-state rate for our site. Our state income taxes support our own state’s parks — not Idaho’s.
ScoutI stayed here 3 nights., early June. All the spaces have wide back in or pull through driveways, beautiful one, fir forest. Sites are mostly shaded, but not always. i.e. check spot for solar power. Very well kept, clean vault toilets. No hookups. Nearest dump station at Shoshone camp, downstream a ways. It's a NF station, $8 fee, credit cards accepted, also neat and clean. Only one pump it yourself drinking water spigot at the campground. Great fishing steps away, but catch the catch and release west slope cutthroat aren't so easy to catch as a recent article in American Fly Fishing magazine suggests-unless you are a professional fly fishing expert and writer, maybe. Go on a weekday.
TravelerGreat place to camp. Very quiet here. Camp sites can be close depending on the one you get. No dump in sites, so a little bit of a bummer.
TravelerTrain honks at a crossing. Didn’t notice it at night as much as morning and evening. Nice spots. Shared water needs a long hose. No tents on grass.
GuideA few sites available along this road. Lots of washboard/rutted sections on the road and some steep areas getting to certain campsites. On the river and very peaceful. Remember to leave not trace and pack out your trash!
RangerThe site is overgrown. Trees were cleared several years ago and the bush has grown in. Sites are well spaced. This sites are paved. Some of them have direct access to the river. Each has a picnic table, barbecue, and fire pit. Most sites are reserved. Three sites are first come first serve. The pit toilets have old wooden enclosures but are well maintained and fully functional.
RangerBeautiful! Quiet River sign meadow. Approximately room for four camper setups. Couple of fire rings. Beautiful mountain side. Have to ford Creek to access. Just one party there on memorial weekend. All the campsites on the way up here were very crowded.
TravelerTwo night stay for me. In the middle of May and all it did was rain with highs in the mid 50s. No fault of the campground of course.
At this time there were no camp hosts nor other campers either. Felt weird and eerie having it all to myself but quiet and peaceful. There are no dumpsters but there are vault toilets, which were clean. The fee to stay is $15 a night when there are camp hosts there. On one side of the campground there is a pretty sizable river. Moyie River. Even though the weather was crappy, I’d definitely go again.
