About this campground

Nestled beneath a canopy of towering evergreens, Sing Lee Campground beckons adventurers seeking an authentic back-to-nature experience. This intimate retreat features two thoughtfully spaced campsites, each equipped with sturdy metal fire rings and weathered picnic tables that have hosted countless wilderness stories. The gentle murmur of a small creek weaves through the campground, while the rushing waters of Newsome Creek can be heard just across the road, creating a natural symphony that lulls campers to sleep under starlit skies.
Sing Lee Campground caters to primitive or rustic camping with minimal facilities.
Historical Significancenull
Weather and SeasonsPerched at nearly 4,000 feet, Sing Lee transforms with the seasons like a living canvas. Winter blankets the campground in pristine snow, creating a wonderland for the hardy few who brave the cold. As spring melts into summer, moderate temperatures invite families and solo travelers alike to explore the surrounding wilderness. The sweet spots for camping are late spring, when wildflowers dot the forest floor, and early fall, when golden light filters through changing leaves and crisp mornings give way to perfect hiking weather.
ElevationAt 3,960 feet above sea level, Sing Lee Campground offers a refreshing escape from lowland heat. This mountain perch delivers naturally air-conditioned summers and transforms into a snow-dusted winter retreat for those seeking solitude. The elevation creates its own microclimate, where morning mists cling to the treetops and afternoon breezes carry the scent of pine and fir through camp.
Natural Features and SceneryStep into a cathedral of ancient timber where shafts of afternoon light filter through the dense forest canopy, creating an ever-changing pattern of shadows and golden pools. The campground's guardian giants - massive conifers that have stood sentinel for decades - provide natural shelter and shade throughout the day. Twin creeks frame this woodland sanctuary: the intimate stream that threads through camp offers a peaceful soundtrack and opportunities for quiet reflection, while nearby Newsome Creek provides a more robust water feature for those who enjoy the powerful voice of mountain waters.
Geological RegionDeep within the magnificent Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forests, Sing Lee Campground occupies a special pocket of wilderness where ancient geological forces have carved a landscape of rolling ridges and creek-carved valleys. This corner of Idaho's vast forest system showcases the region's signature tall timber stands, where Douglas fir, ponderosa pine, and western larch create a multi-story forest ecosystem. The surrounding terrain tells the story of millennia of water erosion, creating the gentle valleys where creeks now flow and providing the perfect setting for this secluded camping haven.
