Had a very nice spot overlooking Mores Creek. Restrooms were clean and convenient. Someone cleared pinecones which was helpful. The drive up from Boise was beautiful and Idaho City is a funky fun spot just up the road with a great grocery store.

Beautiful Campground with lots of red pine trees! Restrooms are very clean. We will definitely go back next season! Price is very reasonable for seniors. The only downfall we encountered was the water pump at the campground pumped yellow looking water so we did not use it. It stated on the website it was tested monthly so not sure why it looked so bad.

We loved staying at Grayback. There were so many places you could put up a tent. We were at the group site which comfortably fit all 25 of us.

Toilet paper in short supply. Never saw a Camp Host in 4 days and what happened to the hand sanitizer?
