Not impressed with folks coming in with kids demanding that we had to move our boat, even know we were there first? We have stayed many times and never an issue. We moved and now due to the rocks our boat has a large chip from the location we were ask to move to, including the front of the bow. Not sure why there is access to the water by 8, a swimming area for kids and they didn’t use it??we walked from 15 to 5 daily. The host is incredibly awesome and sweet, and hence why we returned! We should not of had to move. Our spot was great, #5, clean camp ground. I hate to say it, I have been going to Priest since the 60’s and normally everyone is awesome, then you get some coming from other areas that feel they own everything. No body owns the water or shore, the Idaho parks and recreation does.

We recently spent a week camping at Osprey. This is our favorite campground at Priest Lake. Jim, the camp host kept the bathrooms extremely clean. He made numerous trips around the grounds ensuring that the garbage was emptied. It was a great week despite the 100 degree temperatures!
