This is a great spot if you are visiting Moscow. It is real close to town which makes for an easy commute. However, it is also far enough out of town to make you feel like you are on a farm or truly camping. The hosts are very friendly and quick with communication. The site was very clean and level. I definitely will be back and would recommend this to others!

Dreamy place. Smells like pine trees all day. Beautiful views of the Palouse. Its very well set up. Hot water in the faucet and bathoom. The outside sink was a plus. The table is very big, lots of dry firewood, spacious area, lots of parking, sting lights, the owners were very accomodating, flexible and very welcoming. The kids were very loud and they didn't once come over or say anything.

The campsite was clean with full hook up (water and sewer). Camp chairs, fire wood, and a garbage receptacle was provided. Wish the weather was better to enjoy the space more. Second site with full hook ups is also available.
Directions to the site were very accurate and the host offered us the other site to get out of the weather, but we couldn't pass up the view from the silo site.
Thanks for letting us enjoy your property, and we hope to return in the spring.

Overview
About
Discover the echoes of the past on a Lewis-Clark Canoe Camp camping expedition. This historic ground, situated in Idaho, carries the heritage of the Nez Perce people who have called this area home for thousands of years. Its claim to fame, however, is its role as a significant site for the Lewis and Clark Corps Of Discovery.
The park marks the spot where, in 1805, the Corps collaborated with the Nez Perce to craft the canoes that would eventually lead them to the Pacific Ocean. Arriving in a state of extreme hunger after their arduous journey along the Lolo Trail, the Corps partook in a feast of salmon and camas root provided by their hosts. Although the sudden shift in diet proved too rich, leading to illness, their determination persevered. Overcoming their weakened state and high temperatures, they achieved the remarkable feat of crafting five canoes in 12 days.
This location also bears the testament of the Corps' journey westward, as they left their saddles, gear, and horses under the care of the Nez Perce before embarking on their expedition to the Pacific.
Camping near Lewis-Clark Canoe Camp, apart from being a historical immersion, offers diverse outdoor activities. Explore the nearby Clearwater and Snake Rivers for fishing and boating, hike along the historic trails, or delve into the cultural heritage of the Nez Perce at their local heritage sites. A Lewis-Clark Canoe Camp camping trip delivers a blend of history and outdoor exploration, enriching your outdoor adventure with a touch of Idaho's rich past.
When to go
The ideal time to visit Lewis and Clark Canoe Camp is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warm and conducive to exploring. However, be mindful of the hotter days which can affect your comfort. Spring and fall offer cooler temperatures, while winter can be harsh, with some areas possibly inaccessible due to snow.
Know before you go
- Check the current conditions and alerts before your visit for any closures or safety information.
- Accessibility may vary across different areas of the park; inquire ahead for specific needs.
- While there are no camping amenities, the park is rich in history and natural beauty, offering a unique educational experience.
- Remember to pack out all trash and respect the natural and historical resources of the park.
- Cell service may be limited, so plan accordingly and download maps or information beforehand.
