Beautiful campground. Love the trails and all the trees. Campsites have a decent amount of space between them.

Riley Creek is a beautiful campground. Includes lots of walking trails, a great sandy beach on the river, basketball court, volleyball , horseshoe playing , swimming as well as a nice small inlet to park your boat in. Very nice camp hosts and easy checkin.

This was last week Riley Creek was open it was cool with light rain.
We were there last in July. That was a very trying experience do to several EV type bikes scooters, skate boards etc. it made things very chellenging on the walking paths as well as interference with regular cars, trucks and campers . Please limit or best Ban EV motorized items of all types next season. Many of them were operated by young children with no idea of traffic rules and too many near misses with walkers.

This is one of the best Campgrounds in the Idaho Panhandle, managed by the Federal Corps of Engineers, on the Pend 'Oreille river. To reserve, it takes a six month on-line registration, as very popular.
