Campground Overview

About Beauty Creek Campground

How does Beauty Creek Campground redefine your expectations of a peaceful camping retreat? Situated just half a mile from sparkling Lake Coeur d’Alene and nestled in a scenic valley framed by wooded hillsides, this small yet welcoming campground blends serene creekside settings with easy access to outdoor adventures. It offers 20 well-maintained campsites, each equipped with paved spurs, fire rings, picnic tables, and access to potable water and vault toilets. Some sites even feature shade structures, ensuring comfort under the canopy of Idaho's natural beauty.

The campground’s standout feature is its proximity to the Caribou Ridge National Recreation Trail, which starts at the camp itself. This trail provides a moderate hike with breathtaking overlooks of Lake Coeur d'Alene, perfect for an afternoon excursion. For anglers, the nearby Mineral Ridge boat ramp (less than a mile away) offers access to prime fishing waters teeming with northern pike, bass, and salmon, while paddlers can enjoy kayaking and canoeing on the lake. Mineral Ridge is also ideal for boating activities, with its tranquil waters inviting exploration. Visitors can unwind afterward, as the valley’s quiet, tree-lined environment ensures a restful experience.

Located just eight minutes from Coeur d’Alene, this campground provides access to both tranquil wilderness and a charming local town. Whether you are seeking a rejuvenating weekend escape or a convenient base for hiking, fishing, or exploring the vibrant Lake Coeur d’Alene area, Beauty Creek Campground offers an ideal blend of natural immersion and accessibility.
