Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Private natural preserve camp ground This land is a very precious place hidden in plane sight. My family is doing our best to keep it in the naturally overgrown state and we hope everyone who visits will do the same. This land is nestled in the ridges of coeur d alene mountain. It has two creeks that flow through it. One year round and the other for three months. It was an old mining clam but is now private property.Nestled in a verdant, moss-carpeted valley, Caribou Sprite Hollow - Forest Camp is a hidden sanctuary cradled by dramatic rock ridges. Camp near the confluence of two vibrant mountain creeks, where the dappled sunlight and trickling waters create a truly enchanted getaway. The driveway has two 10-by-20-foot parking spaces and a large center space. I recommend only 2 vehicles down here. It may be hard to turn around and drive up the gravel driveway. I turn around a 22' van in the large center space. I would back down if you have a 24' RV. 24' is the max length for vehicles in the driveway due to the angle of entry and the slope of the driveway. The main camping area is at the fire pit with the picnic table and creek. To get to it, you will need to walk 200ft on a path through the woods. After parking at the bottom of the drive, take a path east upstream along the creek that leads to a bridge. Across the bridge is the main tent space, picnic table, and campfire. You may be able to fit two small tents here or one big tent about 10' by 10.' At the moment, you need to bring your own toilet accommodations. The bag toilet, haul away your waste. If you wish to have more than one or two tents set up for those larger groups. There are other flat areas to put up a tent, but they may be hard to find. I know of one area, another 100' upstream from the picnic table on the same side of the stream as the picnic table. It is just before the stream banks, right. 2 more small tents or one large tent could fit here. For larger groups: There may be other tenting spaces along the path to the firepit.. It will be hard to find 12 individual tent spaces. 6 Backpacking tents could find space. This is new, please let me know how things work out for you. Additional parking is along the road in the turnout areas up the road from the driveway. There is no overnight vehicle camping on the forest service roadway. All overnight camping in vehicles will need to be in the driveway.
