The park offers boat and kayak rentals for those without equipment.

What campers like
Spacious sites: Kootenai County Fairgrounds RV Park gets high marks for roominess. "We loved how large the sites and overall area was, so we could back our rig in easily (40ft long x 13.5ft tall)," explains Kaitlin K., who appreciates that "even with people on either side, we didn't feel like we were on top of anyone else."
Family amenities: Northern Quest RV Resort provides facilities that appeal to families. "Nice RV park with Wi-Fi and Pool. Spacious lots with grass and asphalt pads," writes Wes W., noting its "quick access to a gas station and Wal-Mart is super close."

What you should know
Seasonal closures: Some parks have limited availability during winter months. Blackwell Island RV Park operates from "Apr 1 - Oct 15" according to their listing information, making it unavailable during the coldest months.
Wi-Fi reliability varies: Internet access differs significantly between parks. At Kootenai County Fairgrounds RV Park, one camper reports they "had fast, reliable wifi" and "great service for Verizon," while others note spotty connections elsewhere.
Traffic noise considerations: Liberty Lake RV Campground has some noise challenges. "It is right on the side of I-90, so road noise 24 hours a day along with the train and industrial buildings on each side. So if you are looking peace and quiet, this isn't it," advises the Brown Sign Junkies review.
Tips for camping with families
Dog parks: Liberty Lake RV Campground provides excellent pet facilities. Brian C. notes "the dog park was absolutely amazing, one of the best," making it suitable for families traveling with four-legged members.
Playground access: Multiple campgrounds feature play areas. Travis B. highlights that Liberty Lake RV Campground is "very dog friendly park with a fenced off off-lease dog park that was easy to access. The swimming pool was fantastic as well."

Tips from RVers
Site leveling requirements: Peaceful Pines RV Park has grass sites with good amenities. David S. describes it as "quiet except for train noise (not that bad). Clean restrooms and shower. Pleasant manager," noting that it's only "9 miles southeast of I90 but only adds about 5 miles to east-west I90 trip (triangulates)."
Utility hookups: For winter camping, watch for additional costs. At Liberty Lake RV Campground, one reviewer mentions "there is also a $100 deposit on the heat tape during winter on the spigot. If you don't want to pay it then you have to call them to unlock the water to fill your tank."
Access routes: Some campgrounds have challenging approaches. Liberty Lake RV Campground has "tight narrow roads up to site," according to Shawn A., who found it a "tight squeeze for my 30 ft RV."
