We drove down just to see if we could get access to the Bitterroot River and were pleasantly surprised at how nice this location was. We didn't came but we did have lunch in a tranquil setting near the river. I would highly recommend this spot.
We rolled in on a friday night in late June and snagged the last campsite. It was tiny, and next to swampy area that was mosquito breeding ground. Other sites were very nice. Bathroom (vault toilet) was clean and had toilet paper. Good value for the money. No issue with noise after dark. Would return.
Our dogo love this place and so do we. It's one of our favorite places to go in both the summer and winter
It’s a nice place in May and the sites are all clean and pretty much level. There’s a few sites that are awful close to standing water for sure (mosquito breeding ground) but ours wasn’t and it was quite nice. There is potable water that comes from a hand pump well. The river is a few dozen yards from the campsites and has a brisk flow. As others mentioned, there sure seems to be a lot of traffic by people who are scouting for fishing holes, looking for Waldo or just wanderers. They don’t stop, they just tour the park and move on. Noticed a couple of campers that looked more like homesteaders than visitors but absent a camp host, who’s to say. I’d come back if given the need.
Excellent quiet clean safe overnight for our RV. River was right there but low in October. Only a few other campers.
Water is a little high and murky with floating debris. No action as far as fishing went. Nice place. Pretty to look at. Not TOO many campers. Camping spots are nicely spaced out.
