About Huckleberry Campground

How does Huckleberry Campground defy the typical camping experience? Its prime riverside location along the St. Joe River, combined with modern amenities like electric and water hookups at all 33 RV sites, creates a perfect balance of natural immersion and convenience. This campground offers a serene escape with easy access to exceptional outdoor activities, including fishing, hiking, and non-motorized watercraft opportunities.

Set 29 miles east of St. Maries, Idaho, Huckleberry Campground is nestled within a wild and scenic stretch of the Coeur d’Alene River corridor, part of the Bureau of Land Management's Special Recreation Management Area. The campground features 30 single RV sites with paved parking pads and three spacious group sites. Amenities include potable water, flush toilets, fire rings, and picnic tables, ensuring a comfortable camping experience. A small boat ramp and an RV dump station further enhance the site's functionality. Natural shade from towering trees and the soft sounds of the river foster both relaxation and privacy.

This area is ideal for extended stays or weekend getaways, offering easy access to nearby Forest Service lands with miles of trails for ATV/UTV riding, hiking, or wildlife viewing. Anglers will appreciate the river's clean water and diverse fish populations, while others can enjoy swimming or simply relaxing along its banks. For those seeking an authentic outdoor experience with modern comforts, Huckleberry Campground serves as an excellent base to explore Idaho's pristine landscapes.
