McFarland Campground sits along the Lemhi River in a willow-lined riparian corridor set between the Beaverhead Mountains and the Lemhi Range. The site offers nine shaded campsites suitable for both RVs and tents. On-site amenities include drinking water, vault toilets, picnic tables, and fire rings, though hookups are not available.
