What Guests Are Saying

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.

Excellent site for a short stay - right next to the stream.

Loved our trip there, but beware the #10 side is a bit hard to get a trailer into. Have a 21.5 ft trailer and an F250 4X4. Site it perpendicular to the road so minimal room to back in a trailer. We did it barely!

Cleanest bathroom and smelled good! Best one on our two week tenting trip through California, Oregon, Idaho, and Nevada. Great little campsite. Quite private and lots of room. Nice water pump. 👍

Close to road. Quite noisy. Good for a quick overnight stop on your way to other places.

It was green for sure and a very pretty camp ground. The bike lane along the Weiser river was way cool. Zimm's Hot Springs is not far away and is a nice outing.
However, the camp ground is too close to the highway and there was a lot of traffic noise including trucks honking all during the day at a certain point on highway 95...about milepost 149.
We probably will not go back because of the noisy traffic.

Except for evening road noise, this is a great campground. We appreciate the opportunity to walk on the trail by the camp (old RR right of way). Very nice (substitute) host.
