Perfect spot for the Goldbug Hot Springs and Salmon River Kayaking. Stewart was a wealth of information. We stayed three nights and hiked to the Goldbug Hot Spring twice, rented kayaks at Idaho Adventures and Jaz was so accommodating with kayak rental. We floated down the Salmon River taking Stewart’s recommendation and put in 4 miles up river at Kilpatrick River Access and got out at Elk Bend right where the campground is. About a two mile beautiful float where we saw bald eagles. Ate a delicious, affordable dinner at the Dusty Mule across the street from campground. We also checked out Dick’s Dugout which was interesting. Great three nights here!

We stayed here in our 38’ motorhome. We had plenty of room, the area is beautiful. Our site was level. Stu was great and office was full of cool legos! It’s nothing fancy but was comfortable and nice. We went to The Dusty Mule across the street, great little local hangout!

What a lovely park! It's located on the Salmon River Scenic Byway, which follows the Salmon River (Idaho's largest river) along US-93. it was beautiful in summer and fall would be a spectacular time to visit. Stuart, the owner, has created an oasis for hikers, fishermen/women and historians to enjoy the best of Idaho. The river is right across the road, Goldbug Hot Springs is a nearby hike and the former mining town of Salmon has restaurants, amenities and great history. The sites are very level gravel with nice shade, the restrooms clean and the entire park is very welcoming. The nights were quiet, as US-93 doesn't have a lot of after hours traffic. There's a restaurant and pub within walking distance, too. This was a one night stopover for me - next time I'll plan to stay longer!

Stewart, the friendly owner of this small RV Park bought the park about a year ago and he has given it a great amount of TLC. There are lots of trees so there is a chance that your rig will not be in full sun. The Salmon River is just across US-93 and even though the park is close to the road, the traffic is so light you will not notice it. The park is about 20 miles south of Salmon, the closest gas and groceries, but there is a restaurant right across the street that is not bad.
I had 4 bar Verizon service the whole time I was there which meant my Verizon Home internet unit had not problem streaming movies and TV.
There is a propane tank for re-filling your tank if needed and a dump station as well. Stewart also keep Forest Service Maps and other maps and info about the area in the office for your use. Goldbug Hot Springs is also right around the corner.
I would stay here again if my travels brought me to central Idaho.

Wi-Fi was good enough to download a movie after about an hour. Good Verizon coverage. Nice bathroom/showers. Laundry center, top notch. Excellent movie collection to borrow from. Propane available on-site to refill from. Across the road from Salmon River and The Dusty Mule bar, which had pretty good food too. Would recommend for a future stay.

We set up our daughter in our Super C here for 2 months while she worked in nearby Salmon during the busy season. We were so happy with the beautiful scenery, quiet grounds, and excellent service from the owner. If she ever needed anything, they were happy to help. There is a clean laundry room, showers, and bathrooms onsite, and more than enough space for a 40 foot RV. There are shade trees, some grass sites, some landscape rock sites, picnic tables, a gas firepit, and an onsite mini-store if you need. The owner waited for us until we arrived, helped us get our bearings, and then grew to be a friend. If you are needing to camp (even in a tent!) anywhere near Salmon, Idaho, you need to go and see Stewart at Elk Bend RV Park. Say hi to the deer that roam the area, too, or walk across the street and listen to the Salmon River. Just a beautiful area! Sites with full hookups and not. Would not hesitate to recommend Elk Bend RV Park.
Also, they were pet friendly!

The park is in Elk Bend city limits with houses and businesses close by. Park is quiet with only a few full time residents. Park has showers, laundry, bathrooms, C store and propane on site. Owner is very responsive and friendly, working to up grade the park. Pets allowed but must be leashed at all times.

There is a small store, dvd library, restrooms, shower and laundry all on premises. There is also pretty good Wi Fi. Yedda and Keith are great.
