Springy Point

Beautiful place to camp. The showers and bathrooms always clean. Thank you

Loved the lake and proximity to Sandpoint! However, I wish this site would separate RV and tent-only (or at least no generator) sites. Unfortunately the site we booked had little morning shade. But the lake was great and the site is well maintained!

Springy Point is very clean well maintained park. Nice beach for family and roped off sections for children. Everyone was quite at 10 pm. The only fall back at no fault of the park is yellow jackets. Bring some traps!

Loved this campground, so sad that the smoke from fires obscured distant views. However,:

1. Attentive camp hosts
2. An all around beautiful place

Having a 25" Class C I did need to wiggle into the first spot,, but that's ok, I needed the parking skill brush-up.

Thanks for a great stay!!

Springy Point was a nice location. The beach was a great added perk that we took advantage of, and the sites were a decent size. However, our overall experience was definitely less than average due to the fact that the gates lock you in overnight and well past sunrise. It was light at 5:30 and we were ready to go, only to be locked inside for another hour and a half. I am sure this is posted online and somewhere around the campground, but NO ONE made sure we were aware of this. It seems horribly unsafe and honestly a hazard knowing we could not get out if there was an emergency. We tried to reach the camp host with no luck. We went to a movie the night before and got back right before 10 when they close the gates, so I don’t know what we would’ve done had the gates been closed. This really dampened our experience and we will not be returning to this site.

Our site (#8) was very poorly designed. Everyone in the campground seemed to think it was the official path to the bathrooms. They would walk between our tents, between the car and the tent, around the back of the site. I tried positioning the car differently to direct some of the flow. This worked a little but pushed others into the middle of our site. I never found a way to divert the folks walking through the backside. You don't get much privacy in a campground but this was a constant invasion of what space you had. If it were just a camper or two, a conversation or two, or little kids doing this, it would be one thing. But it was literally everyone and was constant. One lady even supervised herself finding that she was walking through the middle of our site. "Oh is this your site!! I'm so sorry"

Camp sites were pretty small and super dusty. They are also very close to a busy road, so the traffic wakes you up at night if you don't have earplugs. We went the middle of July and the yellow jackets were so bad you couldn’t cook or eat outside without having several swarming you. They would also hang out at the waters edge at the beach. We had a two year old grandson get stung there. It would be nice if traps were put up to help control the problem. The beach in general was nice though. It's shallow pretty far out so was great for all our grandkids. They loved it!

Sites are very small and very close. RV/trailer sites are so small and difficult to get into that they should only be classified as tent sites!
Garbage was overflowing by Saturday morning!

Women’s bathroom had a soiled diaper in the trash that almost made me vomit when I walked in. The sites are very small with the tables almost touching , we had site 19 on the birch loop for one night. The sites sit up on the side of a mountain so having no room made it feel even smaller. I would never stay in this campground again. The fee isn’t very expensive but I would rather boon dock than stay in Springy Point. The campground is very close to the road, the beach area is really small for the amount of people the campground can hold.

Our campsite along with others are extremely close to the road which was quite busy starting around 4am. The campsites are also very close together without much privacy. The picnic table had bacon grease spilled all over it, too, which wasn't a fun surprise. On the plus side it was a nicely shaded campground and the swimming area was decent.
