Weekend Trip to Salmon Gypsy B&B & Mini-Donkey Ranch
The gypsy wagon was definitely unique and fun. It was super clean and comfortable, the grounds were beautifully maintained and Lorett's cinnamon walnut bread was absolutely delicious! We had a nice campfire by the river in the evening and Pat even brought us more wood! We would have liked to have spent more time with the mini donkeys but the owners need to be with you so we didn't want to take too much of their time. Overall, it was a great experience and we will do it again in the future!

Not even one lake at Twin Lakes Campground. Crowded (August) and super noisy and smelled of gas from all the ATVs. Left promptly once someone told me about nearby Cleveland Lake campground. Also very full, but much nicer on a lake. Most suitable for tent camping. I had a hard time sleeping in my camper van because only place to park is right on the campground road, so lights and cars going in and out until midnight.

Surrounded by panoramic views, but also people. Glampers and Boise families flock here more than anything.

Go camping during the week, it tends to get crowded during the weekend, especially during summer and hunting season in September. Normally closed from November - early June.

This campground was amazing! We had to reserve months in advance. Each site has its own little path to the lake. Some of them even have awesome little sand areas which our kids loved and spend almost the whole day! We went in July, the water was freezing but refreshing!

Lovely little campground with many amenities close to Redfish Lake Lodge. Each campsite has a dedicated level pad for tents, a picnic table, a bear box, and fire ring. There are also bathrooms which had flushing toilets and running water, and are well maintained. We loved that Point Campground is close to Redfish Lake Lodge, which has a bunch of different activities: horseback riding, kayaking, dog beach, mountain biking, fishing, etc. This campground is great when camping with children, especially with the bathrooms & lack of car traffic on the tent-only side. We will be returning!

This campground is one of the most beautiful campgrounds you'll find; well maintained, clean, spacious with partial shade or full shade, beautiful view of the Tooths, close to the lake! Also, the camp hosts, the Edmunds are doing a fabulous job at maintaining it! We were there over Memorial weekend, had spot#63 C loop and had a fantastic time!

Very quiet campground, off the beaten path and quite high up there. We loved our night there and camped right by the lake. You definitely get the feel of camping in the mountains... and without having to backpack in!
