Swimming: Lionhead Campground has a beach with a roped off swimming area, of course, there is no lifeguard on duty. Or at least I saw a boat beach near the campsites. You may beach your boat near your campground depending on where you camp. Check the regulations through a link we have on our Idaho Fishing page.īoating: Lionhead Campground has a boat launch with a small dock. If the powers that be would spend a small amount of money to put up signs or paint the creek names on bridges it would help.įishing: Fishing is available in Priest Lake and many streams in the surrounding mountains. We picked up guides for several short hikes but couldn't find the trailhead for any of them. It was our intent to find several waterfalls indicated on our map but could only find 1 as the smaller roads and almost all creeks are not marked with signs. However the mountains are also very beautiful. Recreation: Priest Lake provides most of the recreational opportunities through swimming, boating, canoeing, fishing or just playing on the beach. You could swim, play volleyball and sun on the beach right there at the picnic area. Picnic Area: There is a Day Use area at the beach with a few tables.

Handicap Accessible: The toilets are handicap equipped.įirewood: Firewood and kindling is available for $5 per bundle (2014) at the camp host located near the volleyball court.
