Evergreen Campground

Evergreen Campground is located just off Highway 95 and is used by many recreationists on their way to a future destination, but needing a place to camp overnight. Although right off the highway, the large trees shelter the user from much of the noise, and it is a peaceful place, lulled by the flow of the Weiser River, which flows between the campsites and the highway. The campground had newer facilities, which include new restrooms, campsites, tables, site pads and grills.

The popular Weiser River Trail can be accessed from the campground to enjoy a hike, horseback ride or mountain bike ride. No hook-ups. The typical season of use is mid-May through mid-September, dependent on snow levels.
