Camping, fishing, and a little bit of history.

The Lewis and Clark Expedition camped at the Tower Rock Site. Pretty cool, right? The small, serene campground sits along the banks of the Salmon River. Anglers, trout and steelhead are common catches here, so bring your fishing pole. Boaters, bring along your raft and paddle through the rapids. The scenery driving to camp is awesome, so plan to stop and take in the gorgeous views.

If you are looking for an area that is out of town, THIS IS IT!! We also have overnight stalls available for horses. Please make sure RV tanks are empty in order to hook up to septic. No RV dump station on site. With the river location, we get very windy conditions along the river corridor. Awnings can easily become damaged during these conditions. Please take notice and consider putting awnings away so that they don't get damaged. Along the same lines, please don't have campfires if the winds are high. Make sure your dogs are on a leash. We have mules on the property that DO NOT like dogs. This is for the safety of your dog. No fireworks on the premises. We do have a couple small trash cans that get dumped on Thursdays...that being said....we are NOT a dump. If trash cans are full or you have large items, please haul your trash to Lemhi County Landfill. They are open Monday-Friday: 7am-5:15pm and have dumpsters open on the weekend.
