Our YouTube Video of Neinmeyer Forest Camp

Neinmeyer Forest Camp is in the Boise National Forest and is situated along the Middle Fork of the Boise River. This is beautiful, pine covered mountainous country. This was part of my review from 15 years ago, "There are eight RV/tent camping sites total. Five are on the bank of the North Fork of the Boise River and the other three are on a slope across the road. This camp is the most rundown campground I have been to recently. Cement fire rings are breaking up, the lower toilet is very old, while the upper one is made of river rock. It looked nice from a distance, but a closer inspection revealed an old bench seat style outhouse with peeling paint and rotting wood. I am not going to say this is not a "good" campground, but it does need work." But time and neglect have taken their toll. I would not call this a campground anymore. It's still on the map and on Google Maps but there are primitive campsites along the river that are better.

This campground use to be the prettiest campground on the Middlefork of the Boise. They had a fire up there and had to close it down. It's in the Idaho City ranger district and nobody from the Forest Circus wanted to take care of it. .

Response from the owner

It is too bad, it was a great campground before.
