In the agency’s own words
Kit Price is a beautiful campground overlooking the North Fork Coeur d'Alene River. Campers enjoy the benefits of the river by fishing along the banks, swimming and floating. Hiking is also a great way to see mountain views. “Past visitors may notice a change in the appearance and openness in the park due recent removal of dead and diseased trees. This was done to improve safety for visitors and to improve forest health. New tree plantings are currently being planned to replace some of those lost and to increase the natural appearance of the campground for years to come. Please visit our website for additional information.” Recreation Tubing, swimming and kayaking on the North Fork Coeur d'Alene River are popular summertime activities. Rafters like to head downstream for the class I-III rapids. Catch and release fishing for cutthroat trout is also popular. Keep reading

Natural Features
The campground is situated along the North Fork Coeur d'Alene River at an elevation of 2,550 feet. Campsites are in a meadow like setting, in full to partial sun, in the river bottom of the Coeur d'Alene Mountains. Popular Coeur d'Alene Lake is about 65 miles west of Kit Price. Wildlife in the region includes mule deer, moose, osprey and calliope hummingbirds.
What the agency tells you
Extra Vehicles: One vehicle is included in your single campsite fee. Each additional vehicle will be charged a per day fee. If that fee is not paid with your reservation, it will be collected on site (cash or check only). Maximum two vehicles per site.
Bears frequent the area; keep all food out of sight in approved containers or locked inside your vehicle and remove all food from area after eating
SCRS & Recreation.gov policy states we will keep your reserved site until check-out time on the day after the scheduled arrival date. If you haven't occupied it at any time during this period, your reservation is null and void and will be given to first come first serve campers. Your reservation will be a no show and no refund will be given.

Past visitors may notice a change in the appearance and openness in the park due to recent removal of dead and diseased trees. This was done to improve safety for visitors and to improve forest health. New tree plantings are currently being planned to replace some of those lost and to increase the natural appearance of the campground for years to come.
The 14 day stay limit is strictly enforced. Camping for a period longer than 14 days during any 30-consecutive day period is prohibited. If you have booked back-to-back reservations, you will be asked to cancel all days after the first 14.

No reading yet, book on recreation.gov
recreation.gov lists 56 of the 58 campsites the agency files here. The rest aren’t on its booking system, so a reservation won’t get you one.
No availability snapshot inside the last 36 hours, so this page draws nothing rather than ageing a reading into fiction.

What you actually pay
Derived by CAMPANAC: the agency’s published rates for this season, $26–$52 a night, plus one $8 recreation.gov reservation fee for the booking. A weekend here means Friday and Saturday night, booked once. Optional charges (an extra vehicle, a second tent, a dump-station fee) are listed separately and aren’t in this total.
Who keeps the booking fee
The agency’s own policy text says the reservation fee and the cancellation processing fee are “retained by the reservation service contractor”, and that a campground concessionaire will decline to refund them because “they did not receive these fees”. Recreation.gov is run under contract by Booz Allen Hamilton. What share of your booking fee the contractor keeps isn’t published in any federal dataset we can read, so we print no number for it.

The price is derived by CAMPANAC, not published per site: the per-night rate this campground publishes for each site’s own site type. 58 of the 58 sites listed carry one, and a site whose type has no published rate sits out of the price rather than being called free.
