Bull River Campground, Kootenai National Forest

Nice paved campground with little use in September. There were many options for our 35' fifth wheel. There's a pizza restaurant less than two miles away which was very good.

This used to be a great place to camp, especially at the Pavilion. However, two recent camping trips were not so great. There is not water, even though there are cisterns everywhere. There is no trash pick up. Restrooms are visited and "cleaned" but there is no evidence that anything was done. There are still tons of bugs and webs. I think they just replace the TP. Last visit was at the Pavilion with a men's campout with around 20 individuals. No trash containers, no bear boxes and no water. We brought 250 gallons of water with us and pulled up to where the fire pit was so it would be close to the fire for safety and convenience. The day after we left the site a ranger called and accused us of "off-roading", and not placing our food in the non-existent bear boxes. We weren't "cited" but the temperament of the place is that they want you to pay the same price for the camping without a host, water, trash, bear boxes or clean restrooms. If you wish to dry camp, there are plenty of spaces but it is definitely dry camping. Beautiful campground with severe management issues all blamed on "lack of funding".

Very beautiful. There are three little loop areas to choose from. Seems to be first come first serve. No hosts. No showers. Not terribly dirty. Not many people around. Only reason I’m giving 3 star is because I thought they had a shower and camping for days without a shower, was one of the reasons my husband and I chose this campground.

Our stay was 4 nights at Bull River Campground. This campground is clean and maintained. There is a bear proof container for your food in each campsite and bear proof trash and recycle containers conveniently located around the upper and lower levels. Potable water spickets conveniently located. By the highway entrance is a public day use area with a boat ramp. There is access to the river on the lower level for you kayaks and canoes. Plenty of shade , we found a site with enough sun for our solar.
