No reservations are needed—sites are first-come, first-served, and there are no fees. Amenities are minimal: pit toilets available, no potable water, and most sites have fire rings and picnic tables. RV access is possible, but there are no hookups. The experience is quiet and rustic, surrounded by lush forest and near the Selway River, ideal for fishing, hiking, or simply unplugging. Nearby trails include the Selway River Trail. Best visited late spring through early fall for mild weather and river access.

Camping Essential Practices

Pack It In, Pack It Out
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
