Currently, the property has 3 full RV hook-up with water, 30-50 amp power and septic (Site #1 - 30 amp, Site #2 - 50 & 30 amp, Site #3 - 50 & 30 amp). There is also 1 campsite for either a vehicle or tent, with access to complete bathhouse and shower facilities. Cactus River Ranch is located 12 minutes outside of Salmon, Idaho along the Salmon River. The sites have river front views with your own private river access. Hiking and mountain biking options are available right out the back door up Henry's Creek trail. Amazing fly fishing or bird watching location! Williams Lake is located 6 miles up the road and offers a variety of recreation activities including fishing, swimming, paddle-boarding, canoeing, or sight seeing. If you are looking for an area that is out of town, THIS IS IT!! We also have overnight stalls available for horses. Please make sure RV tanks are empty in order to hook up to septic. No RV dump station on site. With the river location, we get very windy conditions along the river corridor. Awnings can easily become damaged during these conditions. Please take notice and consider putting awnings away so that they don't get damaged. Along the same lines, please don't have campfires if the winds are high. Make sure your dogs are on a leash. We have mules on the property that DO NOT like dogs. This is for the safety of your dog. No fireworks on the premises. NO campfires at this time, the Salmon-Challis National Forest is currently in High Fire Danger. We do have a couple small trash cans that get dumped on Thursdays...that being said....we are NOT a dump. If trash cans are full or you have large items, please haul your trash to Lemhi County Landfill. They are open Monday-Friday: 7am-5:15pm and have dumpsters open on the weekend.

RV Site #3
A slice of heaven
The scenery is majestic. The hosts are helpful, hospitable, and kind. We stayed for almost a week and couldn’t extend because of other campers coming in. We will return again.

Great little place! We tent camped along the river and enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and animal life. Beautiful area and the bathrooms were really nice.

RV Site #2
Great views and location!
If I could give this more than 5 stars, I would! This place is pretty much perfect. The views from the camping area are incredible and it is located right in the midst of an abundance of hiking, driving, sight-seeing, and water activities. On the property, there are 3 RV sites with full hookups, a dry camping site, a canvas tent site, and some primitive tent camping areas down by the water. We staying in RV site #2, which was the middle of the three side-by-side sites. The sites are pretty close together but not crowded - we had plenty of room to put our slide and awning out, and have our chairs out. We had the RV area all to ourself the first couple of days, but the last few days we were there was over a weekend and every site was full. Since the sites are side-by-side, if the spots are all full, there isn't much privacy. That was fine for us and our neighbors ended up being wonderful, but if you are looking for total seclusion and privacy, you won't get that in these sites (but the dry camping site is off by itself so if you don't need hookups, that would be a great, more private option). Site 2 where we stayed is probably the smallest site since it is in the middle. In hindsight, Site 3 is probably the best of the three spots since it is on the far end and has a little more space than the others. We loved everything about this area and the camping location and we highly recommend it! We will definitely return if we make it back through the area. Many thanks to the hosts!

Good price.
Good place for a reasonable place, but I think we got lucky with nice neighbors. I think it's a great idea bit still needs work. The property is covered in horse manure, but it is a farm. Only water front property was the tent site and the tent site are first come first reserve. The bathroom doors are easy to lock when leaving so we had to message the hosts late at night to come and unlock them which was unfortunate for everyone. So I'd fix that so they don't get calls and the guests don't complain.
