Featherville, Idaho, United States
My fiancée and I were fortunate enough to get the last spot (#3) at Bird Creek Campground on September 3rd 2011. It was a cozy site with a bathroom close enough by so as not to be a long walk. In fact, both bathrooms were close enough to all of the camp spots to make them perfectly placed in my opinion. Although many of the other campers found it necessary to drive their ATV’s the 20 yards from their camp to use them, why, I’ll never understand. When I first used the bathroom, I was very pleasantly surprised that it actually smelled good in there, like pine scent. There was even some hand sanitizer in the dispenser, and it stayed fairly pleasant for our entire stay of two days. The camp host that came by was very friendly and pleasant to deal with, as well as informative about the area and what to look out for. Another very pleasant surprise was the camp fee of $6 as opposed to $10 and up from some of the other, not even close to as nice, campsites. The only downside I noticed, was the lack of accessibility to the river from only our campsite. (which I guess explains why it was the only one still open on a Labor Day Saturday afternoon) The only way the river could be accessed is by going through someone else’s campsite to get there. We will definitely be coming back to this wonderful campsite again soon.
