Discover the Ultimate Outdoor Haven: Experience Wilderness Bliss at Our Expansive Campsite in the Heart of Upper Country, Idaho! Nestled on over 30 acres of pristine land, our campsite is perfectly situated next to a serene pond and surrounded by breathtaking mountains. Immerse yourself in nature's embrace while enjoying convenient access to nearby attractions like soothing hot springs, the picturesque Weiser River Trail, and the awe-inspiring wonders of Hells Canyon. Whether you seek thrilling adventures, peaceful relaxation, or a mix of both, our campsite offers it all. Unleash your inner explorer, unwind amidst breathtaking scenery, and create unforgettable memories at our Upper Country Paradise. Description (site overview) Our property is nestled bellow the mountains in the upper country of Idaho close to the small quaint farm towns of Midvale and Cambridge where the nearest stoplight is 30 miles away. Whether you are looking to escape hussell and bussell or have a base camp for your next adventure, you've come to the right place! The campsite is perched up near the large pond about 1000 feet off the main road (which you may see 5 cars a day on or the occasional horseback rider). And not to worry, there is a decent driveway that will bring you within 100 feet of the campsite, a pickup or 4 wheel drive is not required. Spring has Sprung! The trees are blooming along with the wild flowers and the pond is full, an oasis for passing ducks and geese and other wildlife. Once you've established yourself enjoy a nice walk around the pond, cast a line off the pedal boat (catch and release), or enjoy a picnic on the island with the ducks and geese. Peace and quiet is all to be had here (other than the occasional bull frog croaking.) But if adventure is what you seek, adventure you will have! Known as the gateway to Hells Canyon, there are many things to do within 5 minutes to 1 hours drive. Drop into Midvale to hit the Weiser River Trail via hiking, horseback, or mountain bike (electric bikes too). Embark on an off road adventure with your UTV/ATV, or motorcycle up the nearby mountains to Sturgill Peak Lookout where you can see 100 miles in every direction. Schedule and excursion in Hells Canyon (deeper than the grand canyon) or take a dip at the local Mundo hot spring. Fishing and floating can be had at the near by Weiser river or boating at Crane Creek Reservoir. Or maybe you're looking for a base camp for hunting season. Again, the recreational possibilities are endless! Bring your supplies and stay at camp or take a short bike ride/drive into town for some food at the Coffee Cabin or a drink at the local tavern. Maybe you forgot something? the Midvale Market has you covered, and they have adult beverages too, open 7 days a week. Midvale also has a nice little park and a local swimming pool. Site guidelines Respect the locals and they will return the favor. We have a great small town community that looks out for one another. You can ride recreational vehicles on most of the local roads if you choose to bring them, just be respectful of the local laws and courteous to the neighbors who live on dirt roads by keeping the dust down when you pass by. No riding off trails/roads, especially on our property! Please bring life jackets or appropriate floatation devices for children who plan to play or swim in the pond. Explore the property and feel free to pick up wood and branches from the ground for the fire pit, but please do not remove or cut down any trees, and keep fires contained in the fire pit and do not burn when it's windy. Bedding is NOT provided at this time. There is a sheet Please bring sleeping bags or desired bedding for the covered queen bed. We also just built a brand new outhouse! We are slowly adding more amenities and plan to build an outdoor shower next. There is an extra tent under the bed for the kiddos or other guests, also a pop up shad for the warm afternoons, it covers the deck nicely.Our Upper Country Glampsite consists of the main tent nestled next the pond, sit on the porch and watch the sunset or take an excursion out on the water with the petal boat. Take a swim in the pond when its warm, that water stays clean mid spring to early summer and is fed by the underground aquifer. Inside the tent there is a queen bed along with a 4 person tent under the bed for additional guests that can be set up and at the campers discretion. There is some storage in the the tent, night lights, bug spray, ect. There is also an Igloo 5 gallon water jug that can be filled up in town if you want extra water. Also, there is a solar shower if needed, easily hang from one of the trees. The newly built outhouse is about 50 feet from the tent, equipped with toilet paper. Please do not put anything else in the outhouse toilet. The fire pit is a great place to unwind, cook some hotdogs or smores! it also has a swing away grill. There is adquet parking for 2-3 vehicle and a spot for a trailer if your bring toys.

We loved this spot! We came on the new moon specifically for stargazing, and it was amazing! Very private and easy to find. We thought there would be a lot more bugs but there wasn’t many and we found plenty of bug spray in the tent just in case! The peddle boat was super fun!

Wonderful Camping Experience!
We had a great time at the tent. The space is beautiful and very quiett. The pond activity is like having the nature channel on 24/7. Birds, frogs, cows, and more! Chris has everything you could possibly need for your trip. Extra tent, pop ups for privacy a cute boat for the pond. My only complaint was the bugs and wasps but Chris even had bug spray in the tent. This is a perfect space for some privacy and seclusion but still close to anything you could want. Will definitely be staying again the future!!

This was our first HipCamp experience and we were very happy with our spot! pros: -very beautiful area -private -tent is spacious -bed is comfortable -5 min from town -a lot of necessities were made available (wasp spray, shade canopy, trash bags, cooking rack over campfire, table, storage etc.) -host was very responsive Cons: -it gets very hot as you have direct sun in the afternoon and evening. While the canopy helped, I’d recommend bringing a couple more shade sources. If you want to swim in the pond, that’ll help cool, but we were not interested. -as you’re in nature, expect to interact with some wildlife. We encountered protective/aggressive birds who nested in the outhouse. We also heard loud bullfrogs all night. -we struggled with turning on the tent heater at night and it became pretty cold. After more attempts the next day we got it to work. I’d recommend bringing a long lighter to help with the igniter but be careful. Chris helped us out with this issue. Overall this place was great! We unfortunately had to leave early as our dog did not handle the heat well, but we would definitely come again minus our pup, and maybe during a cooler time of year.
