This is a very private and quiet place, more of a sanctuary and not a party place. The only thing you hear is nature, a breeze through the pine trees, the birds, and the creek. This property was and is an organic permaculture farm in the forest. There are two orchards and an organic garden. The water is from a spring. The La Luna cabin is no longer off grid, but if the power does go out, it's a great place to be.. Hot Showers at my cabins are private and outdoors. There's nothing more wonderful than a hot spring-fed shower. The toilets are composting. (No water is wasted here)! Two of the cabins were built from the trees on the property by the first family that lived here in the earlier 1900s. The Birds Nest cabin was originally a tool shed that needed a LOT of Love to be in the condition that it is today. It does have power, running water and wi-fi. There is the option to take an acrylic painting class, banjo, guitar or fiddle lessons, paddleboard lessons, and have a real old-timey campfire with a glass of wine or two with live music performed by our famous Fiddlin Red on the fiddle, banjo, and guitar. Your experience here may change your life forever! We haven't added all the experiential options yet, so if there is something you are interested in please inquire. Every year we make it more and more magical and interesting. It's four miles up a county-maintained dirt road and one mile to a non-motorized lake. I can't see my neighbors, but they are awesome artists and musicians and some of them are off the grid! If you're bringing a pet, they must be on a leash and be quiet pets. If you are bringing a child they also need to be quiet and respectful. I want to keep my neighbors and my other guests happy with a peaceful atmosphere. Thank you!

>>> Voted #1 Campground in Idaho 2022, 2024 & 2025 (Hipcamp Awards) <<< Like a postcard photograph, Bigfoot Campout sits perched over Mirror Lake on one end of a mountain bowl. Campers will have gorgeous views and sunsets over the lake. Fishing, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, sailing, hiking and wildlife watching abound. The campsite is off-the-beaten path so you'll be away from the crowds, yet the site is still close to other area attractions like Lake Pend Oreille (10 min. drive), charming downtown Sandpoint (15 min. drive) and Silverwood Theme Park (30 min. drive). The beauty and allure of Mirror Lake led to it being featured in two Hollywood movies -- Dante's Peak (1997) and Mel (1998). The lake itself is excellent for fishing, and stocked with Kokanee, Brook Trout, Rainbow Trout, and Cutthroat Trout. The stocking is typically scheduled for the first week of June each year, so if you are an angler, it's best to come after June 7th for the best fishing. Paying homage to the Bigfoot legend in northern Idaho, the theme of this campground is all things Sasquatch! Can you find all 9 Sasquatch hiding throughout the campground? Swimming in nearby Talache Landing (a.k.a. Talache Beach) on the shores of Lake Pend Oreille is an absolute must-do. The views are absolutely stunning and the water is crystal clear -- and quite refreshing on a hot day. Fishing is best done in a canoe or small boat which can be put in at our campground dock (free) or at the nearby public boat ramp ($5 fee). When selecting your campsite, please take note of the following: Best lake views: Sites A, C and D. (Sites 1, 2, 3, E and F have partially obstructed lake views due to trees.) Easiest RV access: Site B. It's a pull-through site. Most private: Sites A, B, 1, 2 and 3, or Sites C/D or E/F, when booked in pairs. (Do not book C/D or E/F for complete privacy unless you book them in pairs.) Most shade: Sites A, E and F. Sunniest: Sites B, C and D. Electric access: Sites B, C and D. (C/D share a power pedestal.) Nearest to a Port-a-Potty: Sites A, D and E. Nearest to lake: Site A. Best for large parties: Book Sites C/D together for larger RV camping parties, or book Sites E/F together for moderate-sized tent camping parties.

Easy access from I 90 but not nearly close enough to hear it. Campsite sits 500-600 feet off a county road with a easy driveway and plenty of turn around space. It's a basically level area with several options for how to park. Large pine trees provide shade but let plenty of light through. There is filtered road noise, but the crickets and coyotes are the main thing you'll hear at night. 50 amp power is available and included. The outlet and a 50' heavy duty cord are on the corner of the house. A 30-to-50 amp converter is also there. It doesn't reach to the entire camping area so you'll need to park a bit closer to the house if using it.

Farragut State Park camping guide

Overview

About

Formerly a major training base used by the U.S. Navy during World War II, Farragut State Park is set on the southern end of Lake Pend Oreille in the Idaho Panhandle. This huge, 4,000-acre park offers hiking, mountain biking, boating, swimming, and more, and becomes a major cross-country ski and snowshoe destination in winter. Campers can choose between full hookup or basic sites and camping cabins at Farragut Campground. The Museum of the Brig is housed in one of the park’s few remaining military structures and is filled with memorabilia from the area’s past life as a military training center.

Notable campgrounds

  • Best for RVs: Gilmore Campground
  • Best for tent campers: Whitetail Campground
  • Best for water access: Snowberry Campground

Tips for snagging a campsite

  1. Farragut State Park has over 200 campsites that can be reserved in advance, and reservations are strongly recommended for summer weekends. The park also has cabins, group campgrounds, and equestrian sites.
  2. Reservations for campsites and camping cabins can be made up to nine months in advance online. Reservations must be made at last one day prior to arrival. 
  3. Not all campsites can accommodate large RVs or trailers. Check each site’s driveway length when booking.

When to go

Summer and early fall are the best times to camp, hike, and swim at Farragut State Park. September and October are a particularly lovely time to visit when the summer crowds have gone home and the leaves put on a fall foliage show. In winter, Farragut State Park grooms about six miles of cross-country ski trails for beginner and intermediate skiers. Limited camping spots are available in the winter months, when sites are first-come, first-served.

Know before you go

  1. Showers are available at all Farragut State Park campgrounds and at Beaver Bay Beach.
  2. Farragut State Park has over 40 miles of hiking trails. The Squirrel Cache and Shoreline trails are both easy family-friendly with great views. 
  3. Find park guides, trail maps, campground registration, and a gift store at the visitor center near the west entrance. 
  4. Dogs are allowed everywhere in the park except for Beaver Bay Beach.
