The grounds were beautiful and the host was a gem but the road noise was more than we expected. Would still return!!

Very nice facility and camping area. It's very close to the highway and there was a lot of road noise. Suggest getting camping spot as far from the highway as possible.

Nicely renovated, park facilities are great and Camp Hosts are awesome! having more bushes and trees will be a plus for the park, let then grow. Keep in the good work

Who puts a campground next to a major highway? I guess the ACOE. Honestly, will never camp here again. Horrible experience especially for tent camping. Could not sleep and in some cases, the noise was so loud, jarring, we got heart palpitations especially when there was a car accident in the middle of the night. Campground is also kind of rag tag, tree debris all over the ground, logs, stumps, no attempt to even make it look "parky" or nice. Felt like being in a logging camp. Upsides: shower/bathroom house was clean. Water was hot, showers free if kept relatively short. Swimming in the river, fun. Terrible place if you are tent camping. Forget it. You won't sleep especially if you are a light sleeper. You may not even sleep in an RV. We won't be back.

This is a beautiful campground that was recently updated. Showers,flush toilets and a delightful beach area. Fishing is possible as well as boats launching.However...sometimes the nearby highway noise is like Indy 500.Stay at high numbered spots further from the road.Number 10 is the best.Check out Riley Creek campground just down the road.

It was great!
@KathyS2503995 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #16
Got in late, thankful we saw and reserved the last spot available as there's no walk ins. Never met the host, as we were out early too. One pig camper made a mess out of the very nice single shower room. The water was hot, sites big enough, convenient water taps, bins... worked great for us.

When we arrived at camp staff and volunteers were eagerly coming to help us have the best possible experience. The camp was clean and beautiful. Great job on the upgrade!
@GraceLD24C83F7 · Camped on Jun 17, 2025 at Campsite #12
Site 12 was the best. Its near the playground which if you have young kids its perfect, while also having a beautiful view of the river. Also close walking distance to bathrooms and the waterfront. Our time there was great!
@KathleenM78273 · Camped on Jun 13, 2025 at Campsite #10
Love this campground. It's small and doesn't have hook-ups but it's in a great spot. Bathrooms/showers were clean and hosts were friendly. See you next time!
@JennyM6800572 · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #20
The inside loop pull- through sites are facing the wrong way for RVs. Also many of the pull-throughs have sharp angles making it difficult to pull your RV through them. We liked the hot water dish washing sinks, and having a dump station is very convenient. The camp hosts were awesome. We enjoyed our stay. It would be great if a sidewalk or path could be connected from the entrance to the bridge so you could safely walk or bike to town.
@leslies1712646 · Camped on Jun 5, 2025 at Campsite #19
I understand they just mitigated the trees there but there is a lot of dangerous hazards with sharp tree branches sticking up all over. Otgwise glad the sites were revamped, looks good
@MichaelL540355 · Camped on Jun 5, 2025 at Campsite #14
Like every Corp of Engineers campground I've stayed in, Priest River was neat and well maintained. Keep up the good work!
@KathyB09BD7056 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #19
Clean areas and friendly hosts
@ChadR7031186 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #20
Rangers and Hosts were friendly and informative. Couldn't have been any better. They went out of their way, above and beyond. Facilities were clean.
@melvinh3993838 · Camped on May 17, 2025 at Campsite #19
The hosts were very nice and knowledgeable. The facilities were clean. We will go back
@NealH54D991625 · Camped on Sep 1, 2023 at Campsite #17
Good spot that had showers as a nice surprise. Also excellent dish washing station that wish more recreation.gov campgrounds had.
@AmandaNAD7F8F6 · Camped on Aug 18, 2023 at Campsite #7
The camp host seemed really nice. The camp spot have lots of room and isnt jammed in there like most campgrounds mostly shade. Has a very nice beach for swimming but if you have a dog you can not use it you have to use the dock area which is small and does not have a good beach only enough room for 2 small groups. We had to sit on the dock and then we were in the way of the 2 boat slips and no where to swim as there is no swimming off the dock. That is why I am giving only 3 stars.
@JaniceA78C42E9 · Camped on Aug 17, 2023 at Campsite #1
Camp host Daniel was so helpful and informative definitely will be coming back!
@JonasHF20DAABB · Camped on Aug 6, 2023 at Campsite #1
Nice sites, clean facilities. Close to the highway so theres a lot of road noise.
@HeidiJF7D786B0 · Camped on Jul 29, 2023 at Campsite #2
Restrooms were clean and I love the outdoor kitchen! The Host was the hostess of the mostest. He actually guided us into our spot with our trailer. Will come back!
@BarbaraBBCADF1 · Camped on Jul 24, 2023 at Campsite #14
This park was small and friendly with nice, clean bathrooms, hot, high pressure showers, dishwashing area, and large, shaded sites. Camp host was friendly and helpful.
@LindaS8448936 · Camped on Jul 9, 2023 at Campsite #15
Beautiful area; close to Sandpoint; on our way home. Big campsites.

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.

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.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
