This campground was fine, nothing exciting or beautiful, but it was very peaceful until 6am the next morning.It was unfortunate is that the camp host came around at 6am with a very noisy golf cart to change the reservation tags on the sites. 6am??? Really??? We were just starting our vacation and sure didn't want to be woken up in a peaceful campsite at 6am.

Decent campground for a one night stay, however there are no real views and no redeeming qualities other than proximity to the lake. There are other campgrounds nearby that offer better lake access, amenities, and nearby services. Other than this, from a utilitarian perspective, the campground was very quiet assuming you don't have the misfortune of someone running a generator next door all night.

The washrooms were not clean at all, but the host was nice and helpful. We had an incredible experience with a moose coming into the site for a sleep at 3:30 and then breakfast at 5:15. She was not at all scared of us in our tent watching her intently.

@PaulH7895659 · Camped on Aug 10, 2025 at Campsite #12

Clean restrooms and campsites. Water easy to pump

@Stephanie78890 · Camped on Jul 30, 2025 at Campsite #10

Note that site 10 has no parking and no shade. The creek is also dry in the summer and not as advertised.

@EarlW36CD09105 · Camped on Jul 29, 2025 at Campsite #17

great place. quiet

@CarlyDCA5BED80 · Camped on Jul 26, 2025 at Campsite #14

Conveniently close to Coeur D'Alene, nice big sites.

@BillS4028348 · Camped on Jul 18, 2025 at Campsite #17

This is one of our favorite places to stay. The host was great, very helpful. The vault toilet was clean and supplied. The site itself was as good as it gets; large, private, and enough shade. We had 2 guests join us; ground squirrels with homes in the site.

@KristinK721393 · Camped on Jul 10, 2025 at Campsite #19

We had a very troubling experience here although the camp site itself was nice.

@DavidP3257927 · Camped on Jul 10, 2025 at Campsite #12

Site accommodated my 35' 5th wheel and truck. Getting into the site was a bit of a challenge with the very arrow access road and driveway. Lots of low hanging tree limbs over the access road. Site had plenty of privacy and very spacious. There is 1 central spigot a couple sites down, and it is a hand pump and very stiff pumping. Good workout filling a 6 gallon jug!

@ClaudiaE7D98A3 · Camped on Jul 9, 2025 at Campsite #15

Away from lake access, nice camp spot, truckers using Jake brakes echoing in valley.

@Christina50083 · Camped on Jul 9, 2025 at Campsite #18

Beautiful campground, with well marked sites which have foliage around to help with privacy. Camp Host was very nice and helpful. Coeur dAlene lake is a rocks throw from the campground but theres no public access from the campground and the road around the lake is not really bike safe. Sites are paved but theres road to the campground is dirt and had a couple potholes.

@DesireePD4C15D · Camped on Jul 8, 2025 at Campsite #14

Nice campground, not too far from Couer D'Alene

@MikeD2668364 · Camped on Jul 8, 2025 at Campsite #19

22 minutes from Coeur D'Alene, 2 minutes from Mineral Ridge trailhead, 15 minutes to Blue Creek Bay public fishing/day use dock. Only 19 sites, first 7 are open in a field. The pit toilets are the cleanest we've ever seen. Only potable water is from a hand pump - which is a fun, unique experience, if you have two people to fill up water bottles. Unfortunately the logging trucks are loud, and you can hear road noise. We stayed in the last site, #19, which was more secluded. A few yellow jackets and mosquitos, but not too bad. We parked in a gravel lot on side of 97 near Wolf Bay, and then paddle boarded under 97 into Wolf bay and explored between the cat-tails. There is no public access to Beauty Bay, which is disappointing. Mineral ridge was a steady climb with a spectacular view. 5 people fishing at Blue Creek Bay, off of California trail, when we paddle boarded in the evening. Person fishing at Wolf Lodge Bay Point https://maps.app.goo.gl/RdqCxwyeFmw3GU6U6 caught 5.

We had a two-night stay at this nice campground, which is really close to the lake. For a National Forest campground, it was goodbut there are a few things you should know before you go.We stayed at tent site 007, which we chose based on reviews saying it was the most secluded. That was mostly true. The tent area was tucked behind some bushes, though you could still see the road and a few other sites.One thing to note: many of the tent and some RV sites are fairly open to each other, so dont expect total privacy. For most tent sites, including #7, youll have to park in an assigned spot and walk about 150 feet to your campsite, hauling your gear in.There were vault toiletsdefinitely not the cleanest, but not terrible either.Firewood was being sold at the campground for $8 per bundle. We found it much cheaper in town (about a 20-minute drive away); WinCo had bundles for $5.The water is potable and comes from an old-fashioned hand pump. You cant hook a hose to it, and there's a small valve on top you have to hold open so it doesnt spray out of the water fountain portion. The pump isnt too hard to use, but it does take some effort. Its doable solo, but expect it to be 10 times harder. My girlfriend held the water tank while I did the pumping, which worked out well.There are lots of little critters running around, so be mindful with your food and keep things secured.Overall, we had a good time. We mainly used the campground as a base for our activities in Coeur d'Alene.Theres also a 9-mile hike that starts right in the campground, and a scenic 3-mile trail just down the road.One thing to be aware of: theres a logging road next to the camp, and the trucks are loud, especially in the valley. They start pretty early in the morning.I found a video on YouTube that shows all the campsites, which helped us pick site #7it was super helpful:https://youtu.be/Pkkg58MkoyA

@AustinO5379A92 · Camped on Jun 27, 2025

The campground was nice and the host was very friendly and on top of all her duties to keep everything maintained. Besides the hiking trail, there wasnt much at this campground. The creek was all dried up and a cat that lives at the campground urinated inside one of our tents on that person's only sleeping bag.

@GeorgeK7332702 · Camped on Jun 11, 2025 at Campsite #7

Beautiful spot but the logging trucks make an incredible amount of noise throughout the valley starting in the middle of the night.

@AnthonyZDDC564 · Camped on Jun 7, 2025 at Campsite #7

Campsite 7 had a perfect hideaway beyondThe tree line to put a tent, hammock, and chairs. Spent most our time behind the tree line rather than the table provided due to the close proximity to other campgrounds. 7 has a perfect nook within the trees to feel much more secluded

@AnitaO539DDB70 · Camped on Jun 4, 2025 at Campsite #17

nice camp ground with good distance between them. Fishing on lake only by boat.

@RobertP6375002 · Camped on May 29, 2025 at Campsite #14

Beautiful campsite. Some of the spaces are quite small, had a little problem backing in. Logging trucks made it a little noisy in the early mornings. Campground was well kept and clean.

@DougL1123661 · Camped on May 20, 2025 at Campsite #17

Normally nice but really loud due to logging trucks going up and down using loud exhaust brakes. We had to leave early because it was so loud.

@RiikkaA10ECD95 · Camped on May 16, 2025 at Campsite #19

We had a great stay, but camp ground was not very clean as there were broken glass and trash around fire pit and table. we used our own amenities. Great hiking close by

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
