With hundreds of campgrounds throughout Idaho, it is hard to pick a favorite. There are campgrounds next to lakes, in the mountains, at state parks, and in remote and rugged country. Many of these camping spots are great for families, others are great for pets. In fact, there’s one waterfront campground that’s family-friendly AND great for dogs — the Wagonhammer RV Park and Campground. It’s not only one of the most pet-friendly campgrounds in Idaho but also in the entire country.

Welcome to the Wagonhammer RV Park and Campground in North Fork, Idaho. This campground checks off all of the boxes for a fabulous outdoor adventure.

Here, you will find 40 pull-thru campsites with full hookups or electric and water campsites.

There are also many perks that make this campground stand out from the crowd including a free Wi-Fi hotspot in the lodge, coin-operated laundry, boat launch, a free dump station a few miles from the park, group picnic area, and more.

You'll even find a handful of tent and teepee camping spots here as well. The teepees sit right next to a pond and are surrounded by shade trees. They feature sand bases and are 12 x 14 feet in diameter.

No matter whether you choose to stay in an RV, tent, or teepee, a highlight of this campground is its location. Many campsites are situated right along the banks of the Salmon River. Plan to sit back and enjoy private water views all day long.

Even better, you can share these views with your favorite furry friend. This Idaho campground is pet-friendly and offers a large island and a nature path where your dogs can run free. There is even a pond where your pet can cool off, splash, and just have a good time.

Keep in mind that when in the campsite, all dogs must remain on a leash.

And while the Wagonhammer RV Park and Campground in North Fork is one of the best pet-friendly campgrounds in Idaho, it has also been ranked as one of the best in the country. According to The Dyrt, this campground ranked #2 for most pet-friendly campground in the U.S. based on reviews, photos, accommodations, and amenities.
