Washington Creek Campground

Nestled along the scenic North Fork of the Clearwater River, Washington Creek Campground offers a quintessential Rocky Mountain escape. The site is defined by its stunning river views and direct access to the Washington Ridge Trail, making it an ideal basecamp for those looking to explore the higher elevations of the Idaho wilderness. Whether you are looking for a quiet morning by the water or a challenging hike, the surrounding terrain provides a beautiful backdrop for your outdoor adventures.

This USFS-managed site features 23 individual campsites and one group site, all equipped with gravel parking pads, picnic tables, and fire rings for your convenience.

Washington Creek is perfectly suited for tent campers and those who enjoy traditional car camping. With its year-round availability and serene atmosphere, it is a fantastic choice for families and outdoor enthusiasts who appreciate a back-to-basics connection with nature. Come prepared to enjoy the sounds of the river and the quiet solitude of the Idaho forest.
