47mi from Yaak · 2 sites · Tents, RVs · Hope, ID

Maverick Mountain Home is perched on a mountainside several hundred feet above picturesque Trestle Creek, a protected Kokanee Salmon and Bull Trout spawning habitat, two short but gorgeous miles up the road from Lake Pend Oreille. Our property is hidden within an epic cedar, fir and pine forest, bracketed by the Kaniksu National Forest to the east and conservation land to the west. SPRING/SUMMER/FALL: Spend the afternoon at the Trestle Creek on the eastern shore of Lake Pend Oreille, only two miles down the road (just off Highway 200), where you can launch your boat, swim at the beach, or paddle along the shore in your kayak or SUP. Or, take an adventurous backcountry drive up Trestle Creek Road into the mountains of the Kaniksu National Forest where you can check out Lunch Peak Lookout, hike miles of pristine trails to one of the three nearby mountain lakes, explore several waterfalls, or drive the entire 35 mile backcountry loop down to the town of Clark Fork. If quiet rest is what you seek, find a secluded spot next to one of creeks where you can hang a hammock and listen for that still small voice. Or read a book until the peaceful whispers of flowing water and breeze through the trees lulls you to sleep. You'll be in for a special treat if you book your site during the annual Kokanee Salmon spawning season! The salmon run usually starts during the last week in August or first week in September and lasts through late September. There are a multitude of viewing locations along Trestle Creek to witness this yearly miracle and snap some amazing photos! WINTER: Bring your snow machines and take advantage of sled in/sled out access from your campsite to the Trestle Creek loop system, boasting spectacular backcountry terrain with 50+ miles of groomed trails and hundreds of thousands of off-trail acres to explore! On-site trailer parking adjacent to the road is available. If skiing is your thing, Schweitzer Mountain Ski Resort is an easy (and gorgeous) 45 minute commute. Don't tell anyone, but Schweitzer Mountain is an absolute gem of a ski resort with 2,900 acres of gorgeous skiing terrain (and epic views) for all ages and skill levels. Our family spends a good bit of time skiing here. Winter Driveway Access: a 4-wheel/all-wheel drive vehicle is required to climb our driveway during winter conditions. OUR STORY: We (Tim and Molly) spent 14 years raising our young family in the desert heat of north Phoenix. Every summer we went dispersed camping as many weekends as possible with our four (now five) children in the backcountry mountain ranges of northern Arizona. We watched our family grow stronger together and sibling relationships flourish as the mental and emotional grime of the city grind was slowly washed from our souls during idle morning hangouts, afternoon hiking adventures and evening stories and laughs around the campfire. We had a particularly amazing mountaintop experience in 2014 backcountry camping over Labor Day Weekend where we felt a strong calling to share with others the blessings we were experiencing. Our hearts were impressed with a desire to host a place in the "wilderness" where people and families could escape and unwind from the noise and pace of city life for a few days and maybe even have a mountaintop experience of their own. After several years of waiting for the right timing, we started exploring and found this place in January 2019. By April we had sold our home in Phoenix and moved our family 2,000 miles north to this 27 acre property on a mountain of Hope. We named it Maverick Mountain Home, which captures our love of the wilderness, our mission to care for the lost, and our desire to be unbranded by the world. Upon landing here we immediately got to work preparing. We've spent the last five years working on hundreds of different projects, including: rehabilitating our driveway, beginning a long-term whole-house remodel, building a chicken coop, maintaining our driveway, fencing in a new orchard, chicken yard, and pig yard, planting trees, replacing a spring house, maintaining our driveway, installing underground infrastructure for future guest facilities, clearing trails, milling lumber, and maintaining our driveway. In 2024 we dedicated a good portion of April and May to preparing our first HipCamp site, Living Water, which went live on our wedding anniversary at the end of May. We added our second site, Boondock Butte in July with plans for several more sites in coming years. Since the first booking on our opening weekend we've watched as that line from "Field of Dreams" came true in our "backyard" - we built it and they started coming. Welcome to Maverick Mountain Home, Intrepid Camper! It is a huge blessing for us to share this amazing place with you.

It doesn’t get much prettier than the Idaho panhandle. Situated between Big Sky Country of Montana and the vibrant evergreen fields of Washington (which seriously look Photoshopped to the naked eye), this forest holds more than half the state’s surface waters, and wilderness vibes are guaranteed by the deer, elk, bear, caribou, and wolf populations who call this spot home. Moist maritime air comes in from the Pacific coast, and historic cabins dot the landscape. Near Spokane and the border can get busy on the weekends, but with this much acreage you can always find seclusion here. Make sure to check out at least a portion of the bikeable and walkable Hiawatha Trail—weaving 15 miles through tunnels and across high steel trestles in the Bitterroot Mountains, it’s been called one of the most scenic stretches of railroad in the country.

We really enjoyed our time at the Cedar Grove Campsite! The setting was beautiful, peaceful and serene. The river was just yards away from our camper. The bathroom and shower buildings were very clean and well equipped. We were able to explore the property freely and felt comfortable and able to relax. Our dog was able to roam around with us as well. She loved it! Paul was easy to communicate with annd answered all of our questions ahead of arrival. Highly recommend the Copper Creek Falls hike.

Weekend Trip to ALMOST TO CANADA - FAR NORTH IDAHO

Loved Paul’s little slice of the outdoors. Everything was thought of. Hookups , Bath house and bathroom right near the site. Lots of privacy. My boys loved fishing and exploring across the river, and Copper falls was a good hour excursion right around the corner. Only thing I accidentally over looked was this place is by the railroad. My toddler wasn’t such a super fan of that in the middle of the night , so if you’re tenting it just be aware it comes a couple times at night. Mosquitos are vicious - pack allllll the candles, spray and torches- day and night. We will be back next year, this place is so tranquil and leaves so much to be appreciated .

Great spot with river access, shade and so many amenities, it felt almost like glamping! Very thoughtfully outfitted. You can hear traffic and the train (road and tracks are quite near), but we quickly got used to that. Our three dogs had a wonderful time exploring and fishing for rocks in the river. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay again - they may have spoiled us for other more ‘rustic’ spots in the future!

Kelly was so nice and accommodating! I would stay here again and recommend this place to any of my friends as well! The creek in the back is absolutely beautiful!

Wow, what a beautiful property and incredible accommodations! This was easily the nicest Hipcamp I’ve ever stayed in. The shower, bathroom, and dining areas were immaculate, and the grounds by the river were gorgeous. We only stayed one night but would have happily spent the weekend if we’d been able to. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Maverick Mountain Home

We loved the experience here. It's in the mountains, right next to a creek, while still being close to town if you want to go shopping or anything. It was quiet and private, even with being on the host's driveway there's very little visibility or sounds between the two campsites and the host's home. Would come here again! There are a lot of nearby hikes and lakes with swimming and paddle boarding options, though I would recommend a good four wheel drive smaller vehicle if you want to drive up the mountain to hikes. We did Gem lake and it was an hour in our truck from the campsite even though only 15 miles away. Also not a rocky lake, pretty, but not super swim friendly. Lots of huckleberries though! In late August there weren't even bugs here! Boondock Butte site was pretty full with our camper and truck, but you could hang a hammock nearby if desired and still room for tables and a fire and such outside. They provide a good amount of firewood and a bear box!

The area of the camp itself is beautiful. Truly a feast for the eyes. Right on the river. The accommodations at the camp are the nicest I’ve seen with HipCamp. We tented it. The open kitchen area is excellent, the lav was above ordinary, the shower even more so. The owner has put in some work. Nice work! Took a peek at the cabin area. If we come back for a hideaway, that would be our goal.

Tim and Molly were excellent hosts! The property was quiet and fairly convenient for all of our exploring. We greatly appreciated the fresh water and the hiking maps on arrival. Their suggestions for other activities were great too. We especially enjoyed having access to the creek on the property every day. The toilet was clean and well stocked for our trip. We would definitely stay again!

This is a fantastic campsite. We loved the nicely placed benches, table, and access to the water. Falling asleep to the sound of the rushing river was wonderful. The hot shower was a bonus. (If camping here be prepared for mosquitoes.)

Weekend Trip to Dick's Blue Ribbon Fish Camp

Host was very communicative regarding his site. Upon arrival I walked the route per his suggestion-unfortunately there were some branches that were too low for my rig. I messaged him and he refunded without issue. He appreciated the feedback and will look at removing the low branches. A beautiful site on the water-Hope to return in the future!

Weekend Trip to BnR Horse Ranch

It was a great place to stay and wound up being really close to the disc golf course we wanted to play. They had cute little goats they were very accommodating and had the generator that we needed for my CPAP machine. We had no issues and it was a quiet great Montana place to stay.

Beautiful place. Scenery, right on the river was perfect. Everything was taken care of and provided for. I would recommend this for anyone, but bring your bug repellent. The mosquitoes were hungry.
