About

Robie Creek Park Group Shelter is located in a secluded day-use area at the confluence of Mores Creek and Robie Creek on the edge of the Boise National Forest. Managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as part of Lucky Peak Lake recreation facilities, this park sits in the foothills of the Boise Front, surrounded by basalt canyons, ponderosa pines, granite outcrops, and steep slopes. The group shelter includes 10 picnic tables, high-top serving counters, two large grills, and a hot coal bin, making it ideal for gatherings and events. The park also features six additional shade shelters, each equipped with a table and stand-up grill, along with three vault toilets. A playground facility and buoyed swimming area provide recreation options for families. The nearby Robie Creek Launch Area, a short walk away, provides boating access to Lucky Peak Lake. The park is situated along the seasonal Robie Creek, and visitors should note there is no cellular service available. The facility operates on a first-come, first-served basis during the season, with recommended arrival before 11 a.m.
