Howers Campground Boise National Forest Idaho

Howers Overview

Howers Campground has 10 campsites and is on the northeast shore of beautiful Deadwood Reservoir in western Idaho. A dense forest of lodgepole and Ponderosa pine provide great shade to most sites.

The campground is generally open mid June to late September. Amenities include potable (drinking) water, vault toilets and trash collection. Campsites can accommodate tents, trailers and RVs. Each site also has a gravel parking spur (ranging in size from 18 to 45 feet), table, fire ring and grill. Cell service is not available. A boat ramp is also available over at nearby Cozy Cove campground.

Howers Campground – Area Recreation & Activities

Because of its remote location, Deadwood Reservoir is quiet and unpopulated, making for great fishing for Chinook and Kokanee salmon, as well as rainbow and cutthroat trout.

Outdoor recreation in the area includes boating, water sports, kayaking, canoeing, paddle-boarding, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, hunting, OHV trail riding and picnicking. Wildlife viewing is also good.

Other campgrounds next to Deadwood Reservoir include Barneys, River Side and Cozy Cove. You might also like Silver Creek, Park Creek or Pine Flats campgrounds.
