Evergreen Campground is a well-maintained and clean site with spacious and private tent plots, making it a great choice for camping. The bathrooms are exceptionally clean, and the nearby Weiser River trail offers excellent hiking opportunities. While it’s located close to the highway, creating some road noise, many guests found the environment calm and enjoyable, especially at night.

Our biggest problem was there were 10x10 squares, lined with wood, at every campsite for tents- so if you have a non-square tent it's almost impossible to find a place. The camp host was helpful and moved us to a double spot& we put our tent on the asphalt. Clean bathrooms, beautiful trees, kinda loud bc it's pretty close to road. Weiser River trail(old railway track) was nice. Would come back with smaller tent& bikes.

Excellent campground. Site was well maintained. Took lots of leveling blocks to get level. Close to the river with shaded tables. Restroom was ean and well maintained. Loved the accessibility to the Weiser River trail.

We have been to Evergreen many times in the past and it is a beautiful setting. The problem we had this visit was being driven out by yellow jackets and hornets. We couldn't have any food open or do any cooking without being swarmed. Two in our party were stung and we finally resorted to cooking after dark and leaving early.

Site #12: Thick bramble prevented hanging the hammocks and significant road noise from US-95, but neither bothered us much. The access to the Weiser River was lovely with small fish and crawdads a plenty.
Great shade and absolutely the CLEANEST vault toilets we have ever used, and we use them at every campground we visit! Star-gazing was stunning even through the August smoke which seemed to go around us. It was a great launch for a day of riding the side by side!

Beautiful campsite right on the Weiser River Trail. Only bummer is how close it is to the busy highway.

This easy-to-access campground is small (only 12 sites) but each site is quite private. Since it is just across the Weiser River from US Highway 95 there is highway noise but it was not at all unbearable. We were there in the days following Labor Day so there were very few rigs in the campground.
The restrooms were clean. The well (hand pump) provided cold water. The elderberry bushes were loaded with fruit.
Overall it was a great experience and we will be back.
