Upper Payette Lake Campground offers a beautiful, well-maintained setting with clean restrooms and friendly camp hosts. Many visitors appreciate the quiet atmosphere, privacy at campsites, and proximity to the lake, which is great for kayaking and fishing. However, some reviewers noted issues with road conditions and mosquitoes, recommending the use of repellent and bringing your own drinking water. Overall, it’s a lovely spot for a peaceful getaway.

nice campground but getting quite overgrown. Tree branches rub the sides and top of your camper. and the trails are paved but very narrow because of lack of cutting the brush back off the pavement. Very dusty. The best part of the stay there was the camp host.Very nice people.

Lloyd & Charlotte are absolutely the best. Love them, & so helpful with my dad & his 5th wheel & campsite. His dementia was very evident & they were as kind & gracious, & patient as Saints.
