We loved our time at this campground! It was clean and peaceful! We loved the different activities available… the creek, the hot springs pool, playground and volleyball! It was also so beautiful! Will definitely come back again!

The campground is good, but getting there is horrible! The dirt road is too washboardy, bumpy, and in rough condition. Be prepared to go slow or risk damage to your vehicle or trailer. Even if you do go slow, the road is so bad you could still end up with damage to your trailer.

We had a great time! When we arrived the site was clean and was a great location. It was close to bathroom, close to water and close to the bridge to get to the main area. The fishing is great, the trout love powerbait and most active in the morning. The staff at the office were super nice and helpful. The pool was warm and although it was busy we still enjoyed ourselves. Thanks for a great experience, we will be back!

This is a wonderful campsite on the Peace Creek. It’s at the end of the campground, so you have some quiet from other camper. If you are a tent camper this site is a bit of walk to the pit toilet, but I wouldn’t let that scare you! This site lacks shade during the day. Make sure you bring shade or be at the pool in the afternoon. It’s close to the river and even in August temps dipped down to the 30’s. Afterall it is Idaho! The pool at Silver Creek Plunge is an added bonus, and Cindy and Sean are lovely camp hosts.
