It was awesome to camp with Stan. The camp site was well maintained and ready to go. Beautiful surroundings and easy to get to. You felt out I the middle of nowhere, and yet close to Plummer if you needed anything. Stan was a fantastic host and let us borrow a blanket when it was colder than expected. It was a truly wonderful experience and we will definitely be back.

If you want a private and beautiful forest location, then this is definitely your spot. My family loved this campsite so much. Views are stunning. The location was super spacious.

Sunset Ridge Top
Sunset hilltop was secluded and had a great view of the surrounding area. A fire ring and firewood was available. The hilltop had multiple spots for tent sites. Would come again with a larger group.

My daughter and I had a great time at Parkside Mountain Ranch. The host was very friendly and showed us around the campsite when we arrived. He was able to give us good advice on some local activities as well.

The site is a beautiful huge group spot about 1/4 mile off the main road. It’s the perfect place to enjoy hanging out with friends in a peaceful setting. We really appreciated Stan’s communication and hospitality! We will be back!

Amazing views. Beautiful, peaceful place. Parkside Ranch was a pleasure to work with to organize our camp for our church group. They were so helpful and the camping spot was perfect for our group of 20.

Beautiful location, great view, secluded feeling. Amazing wildflowers near end of May. Anyone who goes the up the hilltop should be aware that cars lower to the ground may scrape against the uneven road. If you can bring an SUV or four Wheel drive vehicle you should. We made it up there in our small 2008 Honda fit, but it was scary and got a bit of damage to the bottom of the vic.

We rented the painted cedar site and had a great time. The area was private and quiet except for the lovely birds, crickets and squirrel sounds. The fire pit and picnic bench were a plus and plenty of trees around for setting up hammocks. Trailhead just down the street for a nice hike in Heyburn State park. Only fault I can find is that the whole site is on a slight slant, making chairs and tables tippy for the younger kids and finding a tent site was challenging. We ended up just pitching on a spot with a slant and just putting our heads up hill. Also, Keep in mind that I had NO cell service with T mobile. The host was attentive and always available when we needed help or had questions, water and firewood were provided.

We loved camping at Parkside Mountain Ranch! The host is super nice and very accommodating. The pictures don’t do it justice!! Campsites are nestled right up to the pond and you feel secluded yet safe. 5 gold stars all around!!! 100% would come again

This was the perfect getaway! Amazing view, secluded, and Stan was very welcoming. Getting to be up top with a fire, the pup running around, and the place to ourselves we would book again.

Enjoyed our trailer camping with friends at Joe Baldy View campsite. Plenty of solitude, kids had a blast playing with each other, and great view of Joe Baldy. Our host met us at the gravel road and led us to our campsite. Just down the road a couple miles is a lake and hiking trails. If you bring a trailer there is a dump station at Hawley's Landing.

A beautiful, semi secluded area with the convenience of gas stations, grocery stores and a lake nearby for the family to spend the day. The host was more than helpful and very informative of the surrounding are and historu behind it. We will definitely be back to check out the other camp spots.

Bad experience, arrived at 2:00 pm remained for 1 hr no one showed up. Dog kept barking couldn’t get out of our truck. I will request refund.

Parkside was a great campsite, very secluded and a wonderful view. Our pups had a great time and were okay off leash since there was no one around. It is on the side of a mountain so be careful if they don't have good recall 😜. The drive up was very primitive, we have a Mazda CX-5 and we're concerned with clearance due to some of the erosion and mud pits, so we highly recommend having at least 8" of clearance on your vehicle and AWD/4WD. The land was soft and flat so tent camping was easy & comfortable. Our host was very nice, checking in on us during the drive, providing direction and then guiding us up the mountain. He even brought us up some firewood and an axe to borrow. We would absolutely come back.

Great view and site area. Plenty of room for tents. Based on the info I thought there would already be a fire pit there, but there was not - not a big deal as we could dig one out and cover it up when done and adhere to Leave No Trace. Also, make sure to ask about the portable toilet before you arrive - simply reserving the site does not reserve the toilet.

This stay ended up being one of the most relaxing stops we’ve had so far in our 2 month journey. At first there was some confusion about where the site was located. Cell and internet is sketchy and could not reach the host right away. The spot was secluded and private with a view of St Baldy Mtn. We had deer and turkey frequent the area. We enjoyed biking on the Trail of the Couer D’Alene nearby. This is a must!!! Visited the city of CDA and enjoyed a fantastic meal and shopping. Will definitely be back if we ever pass through this way. Thanks to Stan for his hospitality.

Painted Cedar Site
We loved the site! It was a spacious spot with lots of shade. It really was lovely!
My only issue was with a neighboring campsite behind ours (one that we didn't even realize was there initially with the fantastic privacy offered by the trees!). Until their arrival on our second day it almost felt like we were truly out in nature. The group of rowdy men hooting, hollering, and blaring their music until 2 am and later was beyond obnoxious. I do realize this wasn't necessarily the fault of the host and that the other site may not even belong to the same host, but it was exceedingly disruptive and greatly took away from the experience.
Though the neighbors were disruptive and obnoxious, I would definitely book this beautiful site again, but some preventative rules in place to avoid similar future issues would be super awesome. Sound travels well out in the woods so I'm quite sure we weren't the only group that was disrupted by the party boys. I had hoped to avoid the loud party campers by booking through a private land owner rather than renting a campground site. Just keep in mind that ear plugs may be as necessary here as in a regular camp ground, depending on your camping neighbors.

Painted cedar was absolutely amazing! Perfect location right near the boat launch but totally secluded, and Stan is a fantastic host.. I would definitely recommend it!
