The Egin Lake Campground is a developed non-reservable fee area located in the Lower Henrys watershed of Idaho. The campsite is situated near the Egin Lakes, which offer stunning views of the surrounding mountains and landscape. The area is known for its abundance of wildlife, including a variety of bird species.

Nearby points of interest include the St. Anthony Sand Dunes, which are the largest sand dunes in Idaho and offer opportunities for off-road vehicle recreation. The area is also home to the Yellowstone Bear World, a wildlife park that allows visitors to view bears and other wildlife up close.

The campground itself offers amenities such as picnic tables, fire rings, and vault toilets. Drinking water is not available on site, so visitors should plan to bring their own. The campground is open from May through September.

Interesting facts about the area include the presence of the Egin Bench, a geological feature that was formed by ancient Lake Bonneville. The bench is a flat plateau that rises above the surrounding area and offers panoramic views of the landscape.

The best time of year to visit the Egin Lake Campground is during the summer months, when temperatures are typically in the 70s and 80s. Visitors should be prepared for cooler temperatures at night, as well as the possibility of thunderstorms during the afternoon.
