There's a second great camping just beside the Salmon River. After crossing the bridge into Highway 75 from https://tortugacasino.org/, keep going straight on the dusty dirt road until you reach the campground. Stay on the public road; there is private property in the area.

Relaxing and worth it

This was a quiet place across the river from the main road. Clean and well kept. It was right up the road from the hot springs and away from the main tourist area . Will visit again. 😊

So Much Room for Activities

Another nice first come first serve campground along the Salmon River. Cross the bridge off of Hwy 75 and keep driving down a dusty dirt road to the campground. There is also private property near here so stay to the main road.

Most of the campsites sit above the Salmon River and just across the river is the highway so you will get some road noise.

There were a couple of hike-to sites as well (#18 + 19), where you park your car in the designated area then take your stuff up from there. Toward the end of the loop is a horse camping area and staging area for ATVs. There are plenty of trails for various activities for this place: Hiking, Biking, Horseback riding, ATV use, and Fishing.

There are pit toilets, picnic tables, fire pits, dumpster but no recycling, and hand pump water. Some sites are small but there is plenty of room near the end for bigger rigs. Parking at each site varies by levelness or size.

There was only one other camper there. Shade/sun mix for all sites.

Store food appropriately as there are no bear boxes and bears do come to this area.

Zero cell reception ATT, Verizon, or TMobile.

Clean and on the river

This campground is not run by the forest service but by a concessionaire, and you will use the iron ranger as there wasn’t a host when I was there. Super clean, all sites along the river side of the lollipop loop are identical with the exception of a couple double sites. There is a fence between you and the river, but not something you couldn’t just hop over to get to the water. Sites on the no river side were less desirable as they didn’t seem to be as large or have good spots for tents. There are a couple of trailheads right in camp which is cool, and there are dedicated spaces for equestrian camping. There didn’t seem to be many campers here, maybe because you have to know to cross the river on the bridge to get back in here. The campground looks fairly new, with very new looking picnic tables and a fairly new looking vault toilet.

Amazing campsite

I feel like I shouldn’t post this and keep this campsite quiet. One of the best sites we have stayed at. Central to everything Stanley can offer and the trailheads and river at the site give you plenty to do.

Campground right on the Salmon River

Campground was right on the Salmon River and right off of the highway. Great location just a few minutes outside of Stanley,ID. Campsites kind of seem on top of each other because there aren’t many trees in between for privacy. Size wise campsites are solid with plenty of room for whatever size tent you have. Fire pit and picnic table at each site. Would stay here again without a question.

Close to Stanley, but too close to, the road

A nice pull off campground along the river. Too close to the road for our tastes, but nothing wrong with it.

Casino Creek

This campsite is located just a few minutes outside of Stanley, making it the perfect destination for a quick camp that is still close enough to the activities in town. The sites include campfires, picnic tables, and bathrooms. The particular side we stayed in didn't have a great place in the grass for our tent, so we had to sleep by our car. The other sites, however, seemed to have some more flat areas. All in all, I had a very simple, peaceful experience here.

Weekday gem?

Could be better- but hard to beat location. Local hot spring nearby. Salmon river flowing alongside. The only issues are that the sites themselves are close together- and you are awfully close to the main road. However I was there on a very busy weekend. I have a feeling that if you got this campground on a weekday the experience would be better and privacy would be much more available :$
