Heyburn State Park is located between the towns of Plummer, ID and St. Maries, ID on Highway 5. Take Highway 95 to Plummer, Idaho. At Plummer take Highway 5 traveling east. Travel approximately 6 miles and at the bottom of a steep winding grade you will take a left onto Chatcolet Road. Hawley's Landing Campground will be the first right. The Visitor's Center is visible as soon as you turn onto Chatcolet Road. Follow Chatcolet Road approximately 2 miles to get to Chatcolet Campground.
Nice camp host. Lots of bugs flushing toilets a plus. A place to shower and swim about 2 miles away. Staff was nice and worked hard I would use the campground again. Able to have a fire
They have made major improvements from the last time I visited. The sites finally have leveled tent pads! The sites are so more on the rustic side, not fully leveled, and the general mood is quiet and reserved. If you're looking to socialize or bring kids, I wouldn't recommend this end of heyburn. Hawleys Landing would be a great alternative for families. They even have these awesome little backpack rentals that include binoculars for kids and parents with booklets for bird watching, wildlife track prints, and tree types. If you want to have a nice, quiet weekend away from the hubub, in a relativity private site, Chatcolet is for you.
