Elevation2680 ft above sea level

Natural Features and SceneryThe campground occupies a level valley floor carved by the Clark Fork River, with pine-covered slopes rising on both sides. Towering pines shade most sites, and the river flows past the campground's eastern edge. Calm enough for swimming and casual paddling. The forest canopy filters sunlight throughout the day, creating cool pockets even in summer heat. The flat terrain makes walking easy. You'll hear freight trains and I-90 traffic alongside the river's sound, a tradeoff for the convenient location.

Lodging & AccommodationsNo hotel-style lodgings are available within the campground.

Programs & ActivitiesNo cultural or educational programs are mentioned.
