Confirmed by 3 users | Last reported on August 03, 2021Nestled in tall pines, and half the sites are 20 feet from the water (down a steepish slope). The sites are graveled, and comfortably spaced. Each has a fire ring and picnic table, there is a dump, tap water, and toilets. I use soar panels and liked site # 28 best, but 12, 25, 27, & 32 also get a few hours of sun each day. This is dry camping at its best. Price reflect Golden Pass discount.
There is a bonus here too - Sandpoint is a really neat little town. I'd live here!

this is quite a gem of a campground and the views of the lake are incredible. they also have flushable toilets, quarter operated showers, firewood onsite and a dump station for no extra fee. the camp hosts were extremely nice and helpful. i did have an issue with cell service though (AT&T). although my phone was showing 2 to 3 bars, i was still unable to do many things with that. i was able to make phone calls but if you rely on internet for work, i would take that into consideration. all in all, springy point is beautiful and i would definitely stay here again.

The sites are a little bit too close together, especially if people want to camp right next to you in an almost empty campground. Some sites almost share the fire pit it's that close. Some sites are a little bit weird, like the one in the middle of the roundabout (?!).
But it's nestled between huge beautiful pine trees, super close to the water (which is nice if you stay left of the boat ramp) and well taken care of. The sites were very uneven. We normally don't put too much thought in leveling the trailer, but this time we bend two stabilizers because of the slope. Most sites are either uneven or too small for a trailer, so choose wisely. Also there are only about 3 sites that have decent solar.
Pretty much empty shortly after memorial day but fills up during the weekend. Super nice camp hosts and very close to town.

We were going to pick a provincial park north of the border, but with a COE campground and a 5 start rating, we decided to stretch our day and spend two days here. This one just goes to show how different people prefer different experiences. Unlike the other COE parks we've enjoyed, this one has no services to the sites. It's a classic northwest campground, heavily treed (no solar potential - anywhere) with lots for second and third growth fir and cedar. The right side loop road entrance is immediately after the office and has a fairly tight and narrow turn. Once again, I'm loving our little Scamp!
Campsite vary greatly in size, slope, and privacy. We selected site #1 which gave us a nearly flat section for the trailer, although a long wheelbase motorhome would have found it way too sloped. Most of the sites are best suited to mid-sized and smaller rigs.
The office has unusual hours. If you don't have reservations, find a spot that has open dates and come back at 6 to 9 pm to settle up and finish the paperwork. Sites are priced at $20 with a %50 discount for anyone with the Senior pass.
There is a dump station at the campground exit but it's sloped away to the right so we'll end up using lego blocks to get a good drain.
Verizon was weak, Google Fi was a single bar of TMobile, but the AT&T Mobley once again carried the day. Connection is slow - 5.3 Mb down, .5 Mb up.

This is a no hook up campground that is on the banks of the Pend Orielle River. Has a nice beach/swimming area and boat ramp. Sites are a bit close but not unbearable. Lots of trees make for a lot of shade and it was appreciated when we stayed. The facility is well maintained and the camp hosts/staff were all pleasant and helpful. Firewood is available as well as a dump station.
My only negative is they lock the gate at 10:00 PM until 7:00 AM. if you will be out late you can get a parking pass to park and walk in to your site.

This campground is best suited for small rigs and tent camping. The larger your rig, the greater your need to be level, the fewer your options, and greater your frustration and disappointment.

The Camp Hosts were great—-very visible and accommodating AND always working. The bathrooms were clean and not too busy. The noise level from planes, trains, boats and automobiles was very loud. On the other hand, the campers were very respectful of other campers. Our site (which we reserved for 10 days) did not accommodate our 23 foot trailer and did not look at all like it appeared online. Fortunately, we were able to take a walk-in site.The day use is very heavy, even during the week. The dead trees (standing and fallen) really need to be taken care of. We have stayed here in the past but will not come back. We almost always stay in public campgrounds. If you rely on solar, this campground is not a good choice.

Pulled in on Labor Day on our way home from Yellowstone. Easy to find a spot after the craziness of the 3 day weekend. Easy tank dump station on the way out.

Needed a place near Sandpoint where our son attended a music day camp for the week. We needed to have good enough cell service to work from the campsite. We use AT&T and were able to run remote control sessions, upload and download, and browse and email with no issues at all. Power would have been nice, but we survived on batteries.

Loved this campground, so sad that the smoke from fires obscured distant views. However,:
1. Attentive camp hosts
2. An all around beautiful place
Having a 25" Class C I did need to wiggle into the first spot,, but that's ok, I needed the parking skill brush-up.
