Albert Moser Campground is situated on the banks of the Cub River about nine miles from Preston, Idaho. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the late 1930s, the campground is just off Cub River Road, at an elevation of 6,000 feet. Visitors enjoy trout fishing in the river and exploring local trails.
The Cub River provides excellent trout fishing. Anglers enjoy fly-fishing for wild cutthroat and hatchery rainbows.
Numerous hiking, biking, horse and off-road vehicle trails crisscross the Cub River area, offering great opportunities to get out and see the beautiful surroundings.
The campground contains six single-family and three double-family sites, all with picnic tables and campfire rings. Some sites also have grills. Vault toilets and drinking water are provided. Roads and parking spurs throughout the campground are dirt. A host is located five miles up Cub River Road at Willow Flat Campground.
The banks of the gentle Cub River are lined with dense stands of cottonwood trees, which offer pleasant shade in the summer and bright autumn color.
From Preston, Idaho, head approximately 3 miles south on U.S. Highway 91. Turn east on Cub River Road (Forest Road 406). Proceed to the Cache National Forest Boundary. Campground is found just inside the boundary on Forest Road 406. The facility is approximately mile 7 on Cub River Road.
Beautiful location with Cub River running by each campsite. I only rated it down because the vaulted toilets that served our campsites were disgusting. The smell was so bad it made my eyes burn. So we all just walked to the start of the camp to the single valuted toilet and it was much better. That toilet was wheelchair accessible. The stinky ones were not. They were at the top of a steep hill and there was a step to get in but those toilets were separated into mens and womens. There was water spigot with soap from camp hosts, by each bathroom as well as two other water spigots. It is gravel roads to the camp and in the camp. Albert Moser was easy to find, marked by a sign. Lots of shade, nice overall.
I enjoyed being here when I came with my Father. It was peaceful. We didn't stay over night. We only visited family. I did get very cold, but it was expected. The mountains are usually like that. I miss camping and hiking!!!!
Great place for camping! Lots of birds which means they will wake you up, but that also means not tons of bugs. Definitely a popular ATV area, but we didn't hear non stop engines or anything. Very green, tons of shade. 15 minutes from Preston if you need anything.
Be aware, this is NOT a place for camping trailers. There are a couple places where a smaller trailer could fit, but this is mostly for tent camping.
A nice campground! The bathrooms were well-maintained and clean, didn’t even smell bad. This campsite was the first one on the left coming into the campsite, it wasn’t ideal in that way because people were always driving past during the day, but otherwise great. There is a little water wheel next to the campsite too which is fun.
