Pine Flats (ID)

I reserved a "trailer" site (spot #6) for Pine Flats through this website, but unfortunately when we arrived, it was a tent site, as we were unable to back up our trailer anywhere due to large boulders blocking the site. Our only option was to parallel park in front of it (in a parking lot) then walk 20+ feet to get to the picnic table and fire pit. The guests next to us (spot #7) had the same situation and said they were upset to find they couldn't back their trailer in either. Guests in spot #5 had basically pitched their tent in our site, which was super rude. We left and stayed in Garden Valley for the weekend instead. The campground overall seems decent, and I'd like to try to stay there again some time, just need to CONFIRM the spot we reserve is, in fact, for trailers.

Beautiful campground above the river with lots of trees providing good shade. Only complaint is that most sites that I saw including ours don’t really have a decent flat spot to put a large tent. The ground is just naturally uneven. Not really the campgrounds fault but maybe some work could be done to create good flat spots obvious for tents like they have at the Mountain View campground just up the way.

Nice spot and very peaceful.

Campground had garbage scattered around it and the restroom toilet was completely full with flys all in the inside. The hot springs are just springs and not hot at all…. We drove off and went down towards Garden valley to Hot springs campground and stayed…. It was a million times better. I’ll never ever step foot much less stay at pine flat.

I want my money back since it was nasty and we had to pay to stay at hot springs campground

Good spot for camping. Loved having the river and hot springs close. Vault toilet was out of toilet paper and very full when we arrived so it was good we brought our own.

I love the hot springs here! Fun in the summer at night.

This campsite had recently undergone tree removal for beetles, I believe. When we got there, the campsite we had reserved couldn’t fit a camper (even though it said one was allowed on the booking page) and there was debris everywhere. There was also nobody else there and the camp host was not around. We ended up camping somewhere else. I would not recommend this campsite until it gets cleaned up properly.

This campsite is a disaster. They recently logged in the campground and left all the limbs and brush in the sites. One of the two bathrooms was locked and the other was about to overflow. People were running their generators at midnight, every rule was being broken and no camp host on site.

Online booking reservation was pretty easy with email follow-ups. A decent campground and near some hot springs, an easy trail to get there. The campground could have used some cleanup after some work to get rid of some infestation. Downed branches left in camping spots. Overgrown grass under and all around picnic tables. Outhouses were well stocked with toilet paper. Not a lot of shade at site 19 but lots of room for the double site.

Nice camp site with a beautiful river and springs.
