Jerry Johnson Campground offers 20 paved campsites directly across the Wild and Scenic Lochsa River, making it a convenient base for fishing and paddling enthusiasts with access to excellent whitewater and fishing opportunities.

Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring, with vault toilets and a hand-pump well available (though water service was unavailable during 2024).

The campground operates seasonally from early June through October on a first-come, first-serve basis and is located on U. S. Highway 12, approximately 53 miles east of Lowell, Idaho.
