Pine Flats (ID)

Very beautiful campsite. The river is next to it and hot springs are nearby. The campsite is pretty decent size. We were lucky that people did not show up On the campground next to us. It will feel a little bit close to each other but you will still have enough space to your self.

The site I reserved was not marked as reserved and someone else had already occupied it. I had to go find another site and hope it hadn’t been reserved as well. Vault toilets had been ignored long enough they were nearly out of tp.

Overall good experience. Stayed in 16a. In general, in good repair, clean pit toilet, fellow campers were mostly courteous. Campsites are a little close together but overall not terrible.

We camped on Sunday night,, so almost everyone else left. It was quiet, beautiful, and peaceful. I loved watching the waterfall across the rive, its changing appearance in different kinds of light. We were a short drive from other lovely places to visit. The only downside was the restrooms, with trash scattered around on the floor.

I enjoyed the stay overnight. Facilities were adequate and comfortable with a nearby restroom. I thought the sites might have been spaced out a bit more, but the campers on both sides of us were quiet and respectful. It was a plus that the campground was also a site of one of many hot springs in the area which we hiked down to about 1/4 mi. First a dip in the hot spring and then a cool down in the river! Nice natural addition to the campsite!!

Only 1 other person there first week of August - but smoke was a little bad.
I got to be in the hot springs all alone - very fun.
Nice shade - good stop between Garden Valley and Idaho City.

Nice camp site with a beautiful river and springs.

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.

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.

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.
