44mi from Spokane · 1 site · Tent, RV · Cataldo, ID

Park your RV, overland rig, pitch a tent, or sleep under the stars next to the Coeur D’ Alene River. Be advised this is directly next to State Highway 3. If you are a light sleeper, or road noise bothers you, this is not the campsite for you. At the camp, you can launch your kayaks at the river to go for an adventure down through the Chain Lakes, all eight are accessible by the river adjacent to where you will sleep. The bird and wildlife watching in this area is world class. Ospreys, hawks, turkeys and other animals commonly hang out in these parts. You can go for a swim at one of the sandbars, take your dirt bikes or side by sides down Killarney Lake Road to access an extensive network of trails and dirt roads into remote wilderness. There is no cell service, no water or electrical hookups, or toilet. As beautiful as it is, your experience will not be “glamping” unless you come with all the comforts you personally desire. You can hunt on the forest service land by 4th of July Pass, fish on the river, or on the Chain Lakes (with the proper permits, of course). There is a access into the water from camp but it is quite steep. For easy access to the water, use the docks or boat launch at Killarney Lake or Bull Run. Pets and kids are allowed at your own risk. Be advised the highway and river are hazardous for off-leash animals and rambunctious toddlers. Please send a message if you have any questions. I am happy to help.

Weekend Trip to Little Spokane Riverside Retreat

We enjoyed our stay at Sara's spot. The river was peaceful and she had all the things needed to have a pleasant experience - picnic table, lawn chairs, inner tube floaters and my favorite a glider rocking bench. When booking the site we thought we could drive in and out of the place to visit relatives in Spokane. Sara's place was perfectly situated to the city however the rough and rutty road to her rv parking spot was not something we wanted to drive on every day. Fortunately we found some different solutions and Sara was very patience and accommodating to our situation. She also communicates well through hip camp texting.

1 night at Camp Coeur d'Alene

Headed through on a cross country road trip and found this sweet campground on the way. We rented a cabin but loved the tent sites so much that if we're passing through again, we'll take one of those. The cabin was clean, comfy and a short walk to the bathrooms. The tent sites are large, separated by nice fences and have a pavilion kitchen available that even includes a microwave. The staff was kind and helpful. I bought a couple of bundles of wood and it was delivered to our site before I walked back. The office has a small store in case you forgot some camping essentials.

Where to go

Riverside State Park

Camp along the Spokane River and Little Spokane River, hike up to Nine Mile Recreation Area to see waterfalls, and enjoy outdoor excitement year-round in Riverside State Park. Summer offers paddle-sports, fishing, hiking, and rock-climbing, while wintertime is ideal for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Campers can enjoy one of the park’s three campgrounds, as well as equine-friendly camping for overnight and day use. Cabins inside the park are available by reservation, and include kitchens, showers, bunk beds, and heating.

Mount Spokane State Park

Visit Mount Spokane State Park to discover 100-miles of hiking trails through the forest and up the slopes of Selkirk Mountain Range. Wildflowers bloom in late spring and early summer, while snowmobiling, skiing, and snow-shoeing are popular winter activities. Pick up a Discover Pass for day-use vehicle access, or spend the night in one of Mount Spokane’s eight tent campsites with restroom and water access. The fire lookout at the summit of Quartz Mountain also offers a unique, rustic overnight experience inside the park.

Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge

Admire over 23,000 acres of protected natural beauty inside Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge. Entrance is free, and there are public restrooms to ensure a comfortable visit. Then, wander through wetlands and pine forests, or book a tour for a personalized adventure through the refuge. Nearby camping areas with wifi, full hookups, and a self-service RV wash make it easy to head to Turnbull for a day trip. It’s open from 6am to 6pm from November to April, and until 9pm from May to October.

When to go

Summer is most popular for tent and RV camping near Spokane County, when highs are around 82°F. Alpine wildflower blooms in spring draw nature-lovers, while early fall is inviting with its mild temperatures. The rainy season lasts from October to June, so pack rain gear to ensure a comfortable trip. Winter camping near Spokane is also an option—find access to snow sports in the nearby mountains. Campers are advised to check ahead as some campgrounds are only open seasonally.
