Riley Creek Recreation Area

PD $13.50 because we have ‘America Beautiful senior pass’. We have a 40’ motorhome with 4 slides and a tow. Fit in nicely. We were able to put out our fence for our ‘girls’ so they could go in and out at will.
We didn’t have resv but was able to get a walk-in site that we scoped out the night before. Sites are staggered which makes it nice. Trash bins located nearby. We didn’t need the nice/clean restrooms or showers (.25 per 5 min). Loved having elec and water. No extra charge! Dump coming in and going out! We also had Verizon cellular data!
I ran my fan to block any outside noise if there was any! Lol!

Only Wish there was a gate at the entrance of Doggie Island. It is on a peninsula with trees, picnic tables, fire pits and deck. Problem is with being an off leash park, dogs will chase bikes and ppl on the other side of the bridge.. UGH!
Great walking trails right out your site and along the river. No bikes after dark.
The entrance is closed from 10 pm until 7am. We liked that idea. This campground is monitored very well.
Great hosts as well!
Hope to come here again!

After checking out Springy Point campground that was almost full (and also super tight) the host suggested we come here. We were lucky enough to snag the last open walk-in site. There are two loops, both with nice gravel back in sites. Some sites you can reserve and some are walk-in only. There are bathhouses in the middle of both loops with pay showers (25 cents for 5 mins), large sink for doing dishes and bathrooms. All sites have water and power hook ups. The sites are beautifully wooded with tall trees so your solar gain here would be small (but they have hook ups so it doesn’t really matter). Throughout the campground there are paved walking/biking trails. The trails lead over to a public boat launch, beach and playground. If you have kids, this campground is perfect and easy to get around! Sandpoint is about a 20 minute drive away and there is plenty to check out there. A convenient store a mile away also rents movies.

One downside is that even though you are a mile drive off the main road, the road is just over the river so we still hear traffic. There is definitely a night shift at the mill down the road because we would occasionally hear beeping (like a truck backing up) at night.

We didn't check specifics, but we did get great cell reception with Verizon.
