About Fort Running Bear

Nestled within the stunning landscapes of Mountain Home, Fort Running Bear RV Park and Campground is the perfect family getaway for those who love the great outdoors! Spanning a remarkable 40 acres, this park offers breathtaking mountain views that provide the ultimate backdrop for your camping adventure.

Families with RVs will find the park accommodating, offering hookups for any size vehicle, whether you're towing a large rig or a cozy setup for two. For those who prefer a more stationary stay, Fort Running Bear also offers four fully equipped cabins. Each cabin sleeps four and comes complete with dining facilities, a coffee maker, stove, microwave, toaster, fridge, and linens for a hassle-free experience. Enjoy your meals on the covered patio with a picnic table, making it feel just like home!

For something a bit different, you can opt for a 5th Wheel rental, which also sleeps four and is similarly equipped. Kids will love the freedom of the open space and can enjoy cooking a meal on the patio with you!

The park is a haven for kids, offering a sparkling swimming pool to splash around in and cool off. There are also plenty of outdoor activities to keep them entertained, including a TV lounge with billiards, mini-golf, and nearby hiking trails. Fishing enthusiasts can try their luck at the Little Camas Reservoir, known for being one of Idaho's prime fishing spots. For a touch of community, join in the scheduled activities such as weekend breakfasts, holiday events, and group gatherings.

And rest assured, despite the playful name, you won't encounter any real running bears here!
