β All Campgrounds
Campsites
There are 8 or 9 camping sites of which 5 or 6 still have a picnic table and fire ring intact. The road and driveways are gravel. Due to the sharp corner as one leaves the creek and the smaller size of the sites, I would recommend smaller RVs only .
Water
No potable water available.
Restroom
There is a vault style outhouse which was clean and well stocked.
Electricity
No.
Firewood
You will need to provide your own firewood.
Pets
No pet stipulations.
Picnic Area
No, but the campground is free so feel free to picnic at any open site.
Handicap Access
Outhouse, yes; campground, no.
RV Dump Site
The nearest RV dumping station is found at Wilderness Gateway Campground on the Lochsa River.
Host On-Site
No.
Phone Service
No. One would have to travel back to Lowell or Kooskia, Idaho to find a pay phone or get reception on their cell phones.
Garbage Services
No.
Fishing
Fishing is available in the Selway River for salmon, steelhead and trout. The creeks such as Glover Creek are also available but it would be a challenge to find fishable water. However, I have found some of the best fishing is to be had in some of those hard to fish spots.
Boating
No.
Swimming
Swim the Selway River at your own risk.
Recreation
Camping and fishing are the main attractions. Near Glover Campground there are 2 trails, one leads NW toward Roundtop Mountain (6807 feet), and the other to the NE up Glover Ridge. It is possible, according to my map, to hike a loop up one and back down the other.
Wildlife
Whitetail deer, elk and bear would be the most common big game animals here but there are also moose, fox, squirrels, wolves and a multitude of birds. I found it fascinating to watch the salmon jump Selway Falls. Check out my pictures on the Selway River Area page.

The entrance to Glover Campground is located where Selway Road crosses Glover Creek. You drive along the creek then turn sharply to the left and climb up a hill. Most of the sites are on a grassy hill overlooking the Selway River. The surrounding mountains are heavily forested with a variety of trees and brush. Glover Campground was once a nice campground but has not been maintained well. As you can see from our pictures, two sites are still good.
