3 nights at Arcadia Legacy

Spent 3 days here over independence day weekend. From the moment we arrived we were greeted with nothing but kindness. The owners (Holli & Bryce) were incredibly welcoming and accommodating. They provided a hand washing station (which was sincerely appreciated), outhouse was clean and well taken care of, Bryce provided a fire pit and firewood for us, chairs, mowed a path to the river that runs parallel to the field we camped at so I could fish (full of massive carp) and Holli gave us kits for s'more's and a homemade tea kit which was delicious! As well as a wealth of local knowledge and insight for navigating the area! Truly couldn’t ask for better service. As far as the land and campsite goes, the campsite is situated on a flat grass field that overlooks the farm, easy to access, only ~15 mins to the north beach along a dirt road on the east side of the valley. Incredible scenery and incredible wildlife. In the evening you can hear the frogs croaking and the coyotes howling in the distance at night. We saw owls, deer, a family of raccoons and eagles. Their property is right next to the bear lake wildlife refuge so if you’re a birder i’d highly recommend. Overall we couldn’t recommend this site enough, and would gladly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, scenic escape near Bear Lake. Especially during a holiday weekend!

The place was amazing. Our host holly and Bryce both were very kind, understanding and helpful. They do make us feel homely. Before we left Bryce gave us a brief tour of his farm. Also, he let my son to climb onto a horse. Me, my wife and kids had a blast there. If u r a family, don’t think twice , I will definitely recommend this place for you. Bear lake is 10 min away from there but if u need a best sandy beach with paid parking (14$) you should go to Sage Springs (22 mins from there). Overall, best hosts ever, best place to camp. I will recommend this place to any individual or family. I will always camp there if I am going to Idaho. Thank you for the amazing experience & hospitality holly and Bryce. Much love from the Nepalese guy.
