Silver mining, Iditarod dogsled training, old railroad... with a rich history and even richer wildlife population, this privately-owned mountain offers pine forests and incredible views just a mile from the fun and funky old town of Wallace, Idaho. The terrain is VERY steep; narrow logging roads hugging the cliffs take you up through evergreen forests with gorgeous mountain views all along the way. Or opt to stay in the easily-accessed grassy flatland, with sites situated between the bubbling creek and the forested mountainside.

The Point - Mountaintop w/VIEWS!
We wanted a camp spot all to ourselves, but not too far off the highway. We got it here! The road to the camp spot was a challenge (steep!) But we knew it would be, so we got there well before sundown. The views are spectacular! The host has made the site cozy by adding a nice fire pit, log seating, a picnic table and bench seat, 2 Adirondack chairs and two hammocks. On a clear night the stars are bright!

We stayed for a quick night on the way home. It was super easy to get to right off the road, but still quiet and peaceful with the creek and surrounding wilderness. Appreciated the picnic table, fire ring, and seating. It was as buggy as you would expect in August. Will definitely come back next time we’re in or passing through Wallace!

Very nice private location. Road to location is narrow in spots with sections of steep grade. 4x4 highly recommended.

15 minute walk to downtown Wallace and the Silver Mine tour. Great location to find quiet and be close to Wallace, especially compared to the RV place down the street that is more like a parking lot and very tight. The grassy area was fairly level, but had taller grass. The site has a large fire pit, picnic table, benches and 2 chairs. It is close to a street that is quiet at night, but has early morning traffic. The trees and hill provide shade late afternoon which helped as it was quite hot in Wallace. The only problem we faced were the bees. There were lots of them and they were on everything. Just standing outside they come and say hello. They got into every crevice of the van and checked out anything we put out on the table. Quite persistent. We are fine with insects while camping, but these little guys didn't leave us alone making it hard to enjoy a drink or food outside. Not the host's fault, and it could be the season, but I suggest to bring a gazebo if you are planning to enjoy food outside.

The camping spot was great! We enjoyed the beautiful views almost 360. Very reasonably priced for the private and unique experience of having a mountain top to yourselves.
