We are staying at Scottie's RV Park and Campground for 5 nights this week as we explore the surrounding area (Creston, Kootenay Lake, Crawford Bay, Kootenay Bay, Ainsworth Hot Springs). The campground is very clean and well-treed, and the husband/wife couple who own the place are very nice (Morgan & Debbie). They have laundry, washrooms with free hot showers, free wifi, book exchange, etc... It is a small, compact 44-site campground, but quaint and quiet. As far as we are concerned, this is the place to stay in Creston
Tip - It's easy to go over the border to Idaho (8 miles from Creston) to get gas - just tell the 'ole border patrol that you're going to get less expensive gas (and beer), and they don't bat an eye - everyone does it. (We'll save about $30/tank, that's about one night of camping.) Be sure to go early in the day, and ask when the border opens/closes so you don't get caught on the wrong side.
