White Sand Campground

White Sand Campground offers 7 tent/RV sites along the upper Lochsa River with picnic tables and fire rings, located just one mile south of Highway 12 on Elk Summit Road.

The campground features a stocked lake for family fishing, river access for fishing and rafting (no motors), and swimming, though amenities are basic—no water hookups, vault outhouse only, and dirt/gravel roads.

Note that the facility is minimally maintained and lacks cell service, but supplies and services are available at nearby Lochsa Lodge.
