Grayback

A really nice campsite with lots of space between sites. But it is more or less boondocking, so bring supplies! Water is available via a hand operated pump.

Campground has large pine trees that provide good shade most of the day. Most sites are pretty level, with a few that have some slope. Most sites are easy to back into, but there are several that are backwards, making it hard to position a trailer. The water coming from the pumps was orange-ish, so consider bringing your own water for drinking and cooking.

Nice no amenities campsite near Idaho City. Dump site and water in Idaho City. 34 miles from Boise.

I love grayback because it is quiet and peaceful. There are trails if you like to hike and a small creek if you want to get wet to cool down. Idaho City is only five minutes away if you need any supplies

This campground has a nice location, and was pretty quiet. It’s great for trailers, but was definitely not designed for tent campers. None of the sites have tent pads, and the areas where you can set up a tent are not level at all. We had to set up our tent on the end of the pavement pad which was NOT ideal.
Site 3 has a picnic table built for toddlers. It’s so close to the ground it was perfect for my 4 year old.
Despite all this, the campground itself is great, clean enough toilets, water, and 5 minutes from idaho city. Just wish they had better accommodations for tents.

Quiet. Campsite clean and had wood.

Lovely and quiet campground with beautiful sunsets. A river to explore just down the hill and hot springs a 3 minute drive away!

Nice campground, less than 1-hour drive from Boise. Well-maintained facilities, clean toilets. Walking access to Mores creek. 5-minute drive to Idaho city gas station and stores. Hot springs near Idaho city is a “must do”.
The campground is located really close to the highway, so some Boise from the cars may spoil the otherwise great camping experience for some. Also, the fire pits are very deep which makes grilling a bit of a chore, bring lots of charcoal and firewood.

Beautifully maintained campground with easy access to all campsite’s. Close proximity to town of Idaho city which has a lovely, by reservation only, hot springs. Campsite has plenty of readily available firewood and water.

They site was clean and well maintained. Close enough to Idaho City so if you forgot something you could grab it, the hot springs were just @3/4 mile away. Enough trails for some beautiful hiking. Lucky Peak is only a 30 minute drive and so much more. The camp host was very friendly for how many sites he had to check on. And the RV dump outside Idaho City was very convenient also.
