Camping near Potlatch guide

Overview

Aside from India, the only other place in the world campers can uncover natural star garnets is in Idaho, especially near Potlatch. The Emerald Creek Garnet Area in Saint Joe National Forest, just east of Potlatch, is a specially designated spot for campers to collect these unique crystals, which have four- or six-ray star patterns when cut. Advance tickets must be purchased online. Western larch and white pines surround nearby campgrounds with basic amenities like vault toilets, potable water, and fire rings. Once crystals are collected, spend the rest of the time reeling in bluegill and bullhead catfish from Saint Maries River and looking for local wildlife like moose, timber wolves, and river otters. For lakeside campsites overlooking Lake Coeur d’Alene, head about 40 miles north to Heyburn State Park. The oldest state park in the Pacific Northwest features ponderosa pine forests, flower-filled meadows, and over 2,000 acres of water. Take a load off here in year-round cabin rentals with electricity, picnic tables, air conditioning, and firepits.
