Honeysuckle Campground

Our Take

What makes Honeysuckle Campground special

Honeysuckle Campground sits at the quiet confluence of Deception Creek and the Little North Fork of the Coeur d'Alene River, deep in a wooded setting that feels genuinely remote. Despite its Utah mailing address near Hyrum, this campground carries the spirit of the northern Rockies in every detail, from the dense canopy of cedar and fir overhead to the cold, clear creeks that converge just steps from camp. The setting is a study in Pacific Northwest forest beauty. Moss-draped trees filter the sunlight into soft green light, and the sound of two creeks meeting fills the air with a constant, calming rush. Sites are spread along the forest floor with generous spacing, offering real seclusion even when the campground is near capacity. Trails lead upstream along both waterways, rewarding hikers with old-growth groves, wildflower meadows, and the chance to spot elk, white-tailed deer, and a remarkable variety of birds. Fishing in both creeks can be productive for small native trout, especially with light tackle and a careful approach. Summer is the primary season, with the campground typically open from late May through September. The remote location means this spot stays blissfully uncrowded even on peak weekends. Sites are first-come, first-served, so there is rarely a need to stress about reservations. Just show up, set up, and let the forest do the rest.
