Very clean Forest Service campground in a sort of ponderosa pine grove, right on the side of the…read moreBanks-Lowman highway. The highway isn't too heavily traveled, so the sites are fairly quiet, with spectacular views of the surrounding mountains. Tables, BBQ grills and fire rings...plus very clean vault toilets and running water. Being in view of the highway, the sites don't feel very secluded or private -- but that is more than made up for by the fact that directly across the highway is a little all-natural sandy-bottomed hot spring, right on the banks of the Payette River. As far as I know you can soak any time, day or night, in a little rectangular pool that used to be part of a bathhouse or something back in the day. We walked over from our campsite after dark, and hiked down for a very relaxing soak. This place is not hardcore, remote or rugged....but I still give it 5 stars because it's clean, beautiful and EASY! And sometimes, that's what you want! I would definitely stay here again...but if you don't want to camp out, you can use the springs for free by parking in the little day use lot at the trailhead, just across from the campground.

Before we even got there, we called several times with all sorts of questions and they were patient and super helpful each time. Upon arriving, they were quick to help us and made sure we had all the gear (tubes, waterproof phone cases, drinks, ice, etc) to make our river float as comfortable and fun as possible! The ride to the river is very quick and on the way they provide plenty of pointers so you're sure to avoid any rough patches coming down the river. They handled loading and unloading our stuff for us, thank you! We will definitely be back and hope to stay overnight next time to take advantage of all they have to offer! Thanks for a great summer memory!!

Overall this is a good campground in a beautiful area. Our RV spot had a decent amount of space and…read moreincluded a picnic table and fire pit but there were a ton of people with ATVs and dirt bikes which crowded the areas a bit. Water, sewer and 30/50 amp hook ups are available at most but not all sites. There is a little beach by the river and a rope swing coming off a nearby bridge if you're looking to cool down. Albert's Landing also offers shuttle service for those wanting to float the river (I think they drop you off roughly three miles up river) or kayak, etc. Dogs must be on leash at all times and quiet hours were respected when we were there. There is a little store as well and overflow parking for any additional vehicles you bring. I was charged $5 a day for my extra car. Bathroom facilities are also available by the entrance. Everyone we came into contact with during our stay was pretty friendly - can't speak to the rude employees other reviewers have mentioned. It would have been nice had there been a little more offered - we've been to other spots that have games out, pools, play structures, designated pet areas, etc and I think Alberts would benefit from having a few additional amenities available. Overall it was a good spot though- will plan a return trip!

Do your research on this campground. I'm pretty sure they should inform you of the drive back to…read morethis campground. The drive is around 9 miles down a dusty gravel road with a one lane bridge. Be careful crossing it so your tires on your rig get lined up. It's not really a park for big RVs. We were among mostly small campers and people in tents. The campground host however was very nice. And the creek running through is a nice feature. If you're looking for that nice RV park and If you don't mind having to get your truck and rig washed after you leave, you'll love this place.

The people above me (tiered camped ground, like a staircase) had their LED lights shining into my camper and I finally went in my nightgown to their site and asked them to turn it off.

We made some hot dogs over the fire and did a little walking around. The pool looks nice (we always saw a lot of people swimming). The staff was always nice and kind. They really seem dedicated to having a nice campground. We were really impressed by the camp kitchen. We didn't bring anything we needed to cook, (besides the hot dogs) so we didn't end up using it but it looked nice/useful. If we happen to find ourselves in this area again we will definitely use it! It even had a microwave! The bathrooms were always clean and had warm water for showers. The cabin itself was nice. We rented a 6 person cabin. It was roomy with a double bed and 2 sets of bunk beds. The beds had the classic cabin style mattresses, but not too bad. It had a little heater attached, which was nice when it got a little chilly in the evening. Overall a very pleasant and nice experience! (A personal favorite: the front porch swing on the cabin: such a cute touch)

This is an older RV resort, but that is not a bad thing. Folks are pretty packed in their spots,…read morebut the grounds are well maintained, and the location is great on the lake. There is an excellent restaurant on premises, with finer dining options, along with affordable standards. There are a couple shower/bathroom combos available, with a few obligatory pee-atoriums for the tent campers who don't have rigs. With plenty of old growth trees, it has a rather 'woodsy' feel, which is what one wants in a camping experience. Everyone is friendly. Staff, campers, folks at the resto, were all smiles and pleasant. We enjoyed our stay here, but I have my eye on perhaps visiting mid-week, or in the shoulder seasons for a more quiet experience. However, if I were a few decades younger, I would have partied my a** off, and would be here every other weekend...

The property is right on a beautiful lake with plenty of wildlife. The onsite restaurant had fantasic food and the wait staff was very friendly. The fully stocked bar has whatever you may like to include some house specialties that are not to miss. The owners are very friendly and accomodating and are just genuinely nice folks to talk with. Spirit Lake is one of those beautiful places tucked away as a hidden gem. If you need a RV spot this is certainly a go to. We are sure to be back.

When we arrived, not only was Steve there to show us to our spot, but several others currently staying. In the park were helpful in spotting some close calls and helping get us positioned just right in our spot. For our rig size, it was a close call and tight fit getting in, but once in our spot it was perfect. They got us in site 11 no problem. Is it an impersonal overly polished concrete and blacktop parking lot style RV Park with perfect level geometry/symmetry everywhere you look? No, but it was one of the best and most relaxing locations we've been so far. It's in the middle of a game preserve, so there are numerous deer routinely wandering around the area. Ahhh nature! As far as quiet goes, evenings were like a cemetery (in a good way). Just lots of peace and quiet to enjoy your surroundings. And the sunsets on the dock & beach! They are about as idyllic as you can get for lakefront property. We spent time swimming, kayaking, and just siting our on the dock enjoying the sunshine. I can speak for the internet/WiFi as we had great T-Mobile reception and so were only on our own hotspots the entire time. 60Mbit down / 8.9Mbit up. Perfectly suited to my purposes.

This campground is right off the interstate, so very convenient, but not so quiet. They do have cones up, but if you're staying there, you just drive up around them. It wasn't a big deal. We would probably stay here again if we took a trip up north. It was a pretty central spot for what we had planned.

There is a nice concrete slab for each camper. First of all the GESTAPO is running the place! They put orange cones at the entry so EVERY TIME you come in and out of the campground....you have to stop and move the cones?! There are may be 20 sites and the camp hosts sit right at the entry where there is a sign to stop before you enter. Let's just say someone did RUN PAST THE ENTRY and take a site....then you go to them and collect your money. So....after going through the cones multiple times the last time I stopped my car, got out, moved the cones and drove through...I did not put the cones back. I kid you not...within 1 minute...the camp host came to me an yelled at me for not replacing the cones. WE LEFT! I go to camp to relax.....not to be yelled at by some camp host over an orange cone!! The sites are pretty small, NO trees, they don't water the grass so it is dry and burned. They have ONE fire pit in the dry grass near the river that you have to share with everyone. You pretty much need a play pen for dogs cuz there is no way to tie them up or have a place for them out of the sun. There are other sites in the area that are better...and NO GESTAPO!
