"Reviewers describe Cedars Campground as a nice, remote getaway, but note that access can be challenging. The internal and surrounding roads are rough, narrow, and dusty, making it better suited for smaller, higher-clearance vehicles rather than large Class A RVs."

Best Time to Camp at Cedars Campground

Summer delivers the most reliable weather and the fullest access to trails and fishing. Expect warm, mostly dry days in the 70s–80s°F with cool nights around 45–55°F. The Idaho Centennial Trail is snow-free, day-hikes are at their best, and trout fishing on Long Creek and the North Fork is consistently productive. The campground fills quickly on summer weekends. Five sites don't go far. Be mindful of wildfire restrictions and possible closures during dry spells.

Summer(Jun-Aug)

4.0 / 5

Best for hiking and fishing; trail access and rivers make summer attractive.

Planning Tips

About Cedars Campground

Cedars Campground sits at 3,688 feet where Long Creek meets the North Fork of the Clearwater River, offering five developed sites along a small loop. The Idaho Centennial Trail runs through camp, and trout fishing is steps away. Access requires a smaller vehicle with decent clearance. Rough, narrow roads make this a poor choice for large RVs.

The site contains five developed campsites located alongside the North Fork of the Clearwater River and Long Creek; trails nearby offer hiking and horse riding access. The source does not specify tent/RV/group/cabin or glamping classifications.

Natural Features and SceneryThe campground occupies a riverside pocket at the confluence of Long Creek and the North Fork of the Clearwater. Cottonwoods frame the water, and clear pools hold trout. The Idaho Centennial Trail weaves through camp and connects to forested hillsides beyond. It's quiet, remote, and genuinely backcountry in character. But that remoteness comes with trade-offs in access and amenities.

Site layoutA small loop with five developed sites along the river and creek. The Idaho Centennial Trail passes through. Roads inside camp are rough and narrow with limited turnaround space. Reviewers warn against large Class A RVs. A lifted Class C or smaller rig with decent clearance handles the washboard and dust better. Approaching from Superior may be easier, though expect a few narrow spots regardless.
