This was stop #2 on our family RV adventure. Since this was our 6 year old twins' first RV trip, I…read morethought it would be a fun experience to "rough it" in the relative wilderness (of the Boise National Forest). As such, this campsite has very few amenities (no electricity, no water hook up, no sewage hook up, no showers, definitely no cell service/wifi). There are water taps and toilets (vault toilets/non-flushing) located around the campsite. Sites have fire pits and picnic tables. Sites were well spaced out. Lake is beautiful. Water was chilly, but great for fishing and rafting. Hiking and biking trails. Be prepared to deal with the bugs (the horseflies and gnats were particularly bothersome). Lighting the fire helped a bit. Unfortunately, our twins weren't overly thrilled with the natural setting and relative seclusion, and were ready to boycott the rest of the RV trip. However, if you want a place to unwind and unplug, this is the spot for you.

Oh man, oh man, oh man--all of the heart eyes! (Not the easiest thing in the world to get to, but…read morelike a hidden treasure, once you find it, the hunt is so worth it!) How to get there(ish): 1. Head up ID 55 like you're going towards McCall 2. Hang a right on Banks Lowman Highway 3. Drive for 28 miles and then you'll see Pine Flats Campground on the right 4. (Now getting to the hot springs is a bit tricky. Side note: I definitely would NOT recommend attempting this in snowy weather, that just would not be smart or safe.) Anyways, you're going to take a trail that runs sort of by the river and is towards the rightmost part of the campground. You'll walk for what I assume to be a quarter mile, and then voila! You'll arrive at a beach along the river with massive boulders and pools stacked against the hillside (this is all natural by the way)! The Campground: Parking is $5/day, and I am not sure about the cost of overnight camping as we only made a day trip here. They have one bathroom here, and, well, it's totally a public park bathroom. The Views: We went on an October weekend, so we had a view that combined all things beautiful that Idaho has to offer in one--snow on mountains in the distance, lush green hills, stunning fall foliage, a rushing river running along the hot springs, and clean mountain air. The Hot Springs: A good amount of the pools of water were warm and I would only recommend sitting in them if the weather is above 80 degrees, or else you'll get chilly real quick. But for the most part, they were toasty, especially if you sat underneath the ones with waterfalls--those will heat you right up! Pro Tip(s): 1. Make sure you have more than enough gas in your car--you're out of service up here and out of luck if you run out of gas. 2. Bring a big water bottle! Sitting in hot water will dehydrate ya real quick.

For anyone feeling super adventurous and spontaneous. Maybe even wanting to just get out and…read moreexperience something new this beginning of spring Pine Flats is definitely the perfect spot. When you arrive it can be a little confusing but don't be overwhelmed with the long walking trail! Overall our experience for first timers was great. We did have to walk a little and if your a first timer also like us you may want to be ready with some hiking shoes, warm clothes/swimming clothes if your using the hot springs and a happy motivation(: The hot springs pool overall is pretty smaller then expected but good maybe for couples if you need a nice date idea. The temperature is perfect if you land in the right spot. (Lower ones are better) would we do this again ? 10/10 yes.

Absolutely spectacular views of snowcapped mountains with lodgepole pines as far as you can see. There are 16 spacious campsites, no hookups, pump water well, pit toilets, reservations for $14 a night through https://www.recreation.gov/camping/stanley-lake-campground highly recommended. It is wonderfully peaceful and absolutely breathtaking. Fishing was great, the lake allows motors although we only saw a few kayaks. Husband caught a few trout and they were yummy. The views of the mountains will keep you captivated for hours. We camped in our very large 30 for trailer and fit just fine. Host was very nice and sells firewood for $7. The very small town of Stanley is close by with gas, a couple restaurants and a market, but bring what you need because there isn't a lot of choice. This is one of the most beautiful campgrounds we have ever stayed at.

This is a BEAUTIFUL campground on Little Red Fish Lake in Stanley, Idaho. It's fairly small,…read moreprobably less than 10 camping spots on the whole site, so if you snag one...you are a lucky duck (all sites are first come, first serve). This campground has gorgeous pines throughout and sits right on the edge of Little Red Fish Lake. Cost: I came here with a fairly large group of people (16), so we had to snag two camping spots. They only allow one car per site, but you can purchase extra parking passes if necessary. We paid $18 per spot per day and $9 for each additional car. (You'll want to bring cash with you to pay, as there is no way to pay for the sites via cc or check!) ETC: - No showers (wah, wah), but if you're going into the Idaho wilderness, you might as well be ready to rough it, amiright?? - They do however have bathrooms with stalls, a sink, and a mirror (for a camp-sight, these bathrooms are very well kept and clean #PRAISE). - Access to drinkable water. - Firewood for purchase on sight ($7 a bundle). - Each camp-sight comes equipped with a firepit and picnic tables. - Bonus: lots of trees, so if you have a hammock, be sure to bring it along with you!

The only issue I had was there were some folks that were staying in the cabins getting plastered (it was noon on a Friday, no judgement but there was kids) and being completely inappropriate and creepy. I wish the staff would have addressed the issue. They were loud, obnoxious and playing distasteful music for a family atmosphere. Nothing to complain about the pricing or the pools themselves. I wish they would fix the netting in the covered area, and maybe have more changing rooms with showers.
