Hidden Creek Campground

3 ReviewsAdd Review

Within Clearwater National Forest, Hidden Creek Campground provides a forest setting along the North Fork Clearwater River from June through October. The US Forest Service manages this drive-in and walk-in facility, which prohibits pets and charges $10 per night with an access pass.

Large cedar trees shade individual campsites that reviewers describe as well-spaced from each other. The campground sits directly beside the river, offering access to a swimming hole, though visitors note the water runs cold. Vault toilets and drinking water serve campers, while a group site accommodates larger parties for $15. Nearby options include Cedars Campground for those wanting additional forest camping.

Guests commonly noted the beautiful cedar-filled setting along the Clearwater River with well-spaced sites and peaceful atmosphere. Many visitors appreciated the affordable pricing and good facility access, though river water runs cold for swimming.

Great group site.

We enjoyed the group site. It was on an outside corner. Good access to the streams as well as the restroom. 3 tables and lots of room. Beautiful campground with cedar trees and the kids enjoyed picking huckleberries.
