    Goose Creek RV Park & Campground

    Nice, Green, Quiet, Enjoyable Stay!

    This is a really nice park, a gem in the middle of wheat and ancient lava flow fields. Great staff, well maintained and green, lush grass. Restrooms, showers and laundry are available, full hookups for all sized rigs (30/50). Small, quaint town, great burgers at Billy's Burgers, a really great spot for a stopover or as a base to Lake Roosevelt. Long and short-term stays are here, but nothing seems run-down or questionable. Sites are large. I'd stay again, for sure. The park store was really well-stocked with RV essentials, impressive for how small the space is. Another gem in town was steps away, a hardware store, where I purchased everything I needed for some cabinet repairs to my trailer; good prices, nice people.

    Blackwell Island RV Park

    Coeur d’Alene Lakefront RV park

    Nicely located and well maintained large rv park on Lake Coeur d’Alene. This park offers both lake front and non-lakefront spaces with full hookups. This park offered free but poor WiFi unless in or near the club house. Kayaks speedboat in pontoon boats are available for rent from the front office. This park could use more foliage between sites otherwise a nice place to stay near downtown, stores and restaurants. We would stay here again.

    Hog Lake Campground

    Nice Dispersed Camping

    Camp on area with no vegetation. Road is a lil rough but our outback handled it just fine. The lake is a short hike depending where you pitch your camp.

    Nice small campground

    Peaceful stop while traveling through. Sites 12 and higher have more privacy. Very clean pit toilets.

    Trailer Inns RV Park

    Ok for one night

    Not a terrible price and they have showers and laundry and clean bathrooms and a small store that sells ice and I'm not sure what else but this is more of a resident RV park than a traveler RV park and the pictures show what I mean.

    Hog Lake Campground

    It’s ok

    Eh. It’s fine, it’s a place to sleep. Stayed here for 2 days and there wasn’t much to do besides walk over to the lake. The views are fine, good sunsets but nothing too special. Most of the sites are in open spots with little shade and little privacy, if you show up past 5 you’ll probably end up in one of those. That’s where I ended up my first night, then moved to a spot with two trees my second. Kind of littered with trash just about everywhere. Broken glass in some sites so be careful. Came on a Saturday night and it was crazy busy, Sunday was calmer. Good AT&T service in the upper sites, not so much in the lower ones.

    Also there’s kind of a weird vibe? As a solo female camper I’ve been walking around and making sure to have my mace on hand lol

    Camp Coeur D Alene

    Cute and SO cozy!

    This campground was super cozy and safe. They had firewood for sale, a pool, and clean showers and bathrooms. We had a very comfortable stay and were able to connect to the wifi at our tent site. Would be the first campground we would reserve when we return to the area.
