Welcome to our serene retreat along the picturesque Lemhi River. Situated on five acres downstream from a magnificent river restoration project, our property offers a haven for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. Cast your line into the pristine waters of the Lemhi River and enjoy the thrill of fishing in one of nature's finest playgrounds. As night falls, marvel at the brilliance of the star-studded sky and listen to the soothing sounds of the surrounding wilderness. With direct access to BLM land, adventure awaits just beyond our doorstep. Lace-up your hiking boots or hop on your mountain bike to explore the scenic trails that wind through the rugged terrain. For a relaxing escape, take a short drive to Sharkey Hot Springs and immerse yourself in the rejuvenating waters. Whether you're seeking solitude in nature or seeking adventure in the great outdoors, our unique property along the Lemhi River offers the perfect retreat for your next getaway.Truck campers and small RVs can park off the driveway with trail access to a sandy beach and river access. Tents can be pitched in a small grove of trees when you first enter the property. Large campers can pull past the house and park in a large open space at the end of the driveway. Guests should be mostly self contained but we can accommodate for electricity, potable water and garbage.

Happy Campers
What a gem! Do yourself a favor and make this experience part of your story! After being greeted by the family pets and lambs, Cheri greeted us warmly and invited us to the local evening concert in town (which ordinarily we would have leaned into were we not looking forward to chilling in front of the spectacular sunset!)! Also this host was helpful in providing extension cords so we could recover our battery! The spot was level and grassy!

Great spot!
Great spot! Access to the river, they have sheep and water fowl which is cute. The campsite is within view of the house, so if you’re looking for something private, it may not be the best spot for you, but overall great stay!

Camping on the Lemhi River!
Tom and Cherie have a beautiful spot on the Lemhi River outside of Salmon, ID. Cheri met us at the top of the driveway and gave us a couple of options of places to park our RV. After settling in we met their lambs, adorable dogs, and took a walk down the path to the river. Tom and Cheri gave us an overview of the area and suggested some places to check out around Salmon and along our route to Glacier. They are surrounded by conservation land and farms, so if you like to get out and hike, this is a great HipCamp for you. Positives: * Level spot on grassy gravel for our 35’ rig * Very close to the river * Great scenery and views on the property * Solid 2-3 bars LTE Verizon * Incredibly nice and charming hosts * Lots of wildlife - lambs, dogs, cats, birds, fish, ducks, geese, etc * National forest across the road for hiking * Great trail to river that was lit at night * Great campfire spot by the river * Beautiful views over the river of the mountains * Great fishing Potential improvements and things to know: * Would love a view of the river from the RV spot * No power, water, or gray water (yet, they said they may put these in the future)
