About
Cedar Creek Campground is a small, primitive camping destination managed by the Idaho Panhandle National Forests, located along the St. Maries River in the St. Joe River Region. The campground features just 3 campsites, making it an intimate and quiet retreat for those seeking a more rustic experience. The facility operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations accepted. The campground provides vault toilets but lacks potable water, so visitors must bring adequate water supplies for drinking, cooking, and cleaning. A Pack it In Pack it Out waste management system is in effect, requiring campers to carry out all trash and refuse. Each campsite accommodates up to 2 vehicles, with an additional third vehicle permitted for an extra fee. The primary attraction is fishing access to the St. Maries River, which flows alongside the campground. The location offers a peaceful setting for anglers and campers seeking solitude. The campground is easily accessible directly off State Highway 3, positioned about 3 miles north of Clarkia and 28 miles south of St. Maries. The area closes seasonally during winter months due to snow and weather conditions.
Directions
Drive 28 miles south of St. Maries, Idaho (3 miles north of Clarkia, Idaho) on State Highway 3. The campground is accessed directly off of Highway 3.
