The North Shore campground is composed of 10 single-sites and 4 double-sites on beautiful Alturas lake and is situated in a mixed conifer setting. All sites are first-come, first-serve. Spend sunny summer days fishing for trout, waterskiing, sailing, motorboating, swimming, and picnicking by the lake. Cabin Creek trail head to the north or Alturas Lake Creek trail head to the west provide hiking trails into the beautiful Sawtooth Wilderness.
In Stanley, ID, at the intersection of State Rts. 21 and 75, take Rt. 75 south 21 miles to Alturas Lake sign (Forest Rt. 205). Turn right at sign onto Rt. 205 and go 3.4 miles to campground sign. Turn left into campground.
This place was amazing! There were bathrooms, a hose connector for washing dishes and stuff like that. It was beautiful and the camp site is right by the lake which was very nice. The day use area/beach is only 5 minutes away, so no need for long drives. Definitely recommend.
Very clean lovely place to stay. Place was completely full tho. We got a beautiful place for two families down by the lake. The only way we got it tho is we found out from a friend that was already there. They held the campsite for us until we got there. The camp host is a very friendly sweet lady.
Very nice campsite and very clean. But good luck getting a spot it's crowded all season long with only 11 designated sites.
