Craigmont, ID

Craigmont is a quiet, tight-knit farming town of under 500 residents set across the rolling fields of north-central Idaho’s Camas Prairie. Located right along Highway 95 within the Nez Perce Reservation, it offers endless big-sky views and easy access to scenic spots like Lawyers Creek Canyon. Life here moves at a relaxed, unhurried pace, making it an appealing spot for anyone drawn to wide-open spaces and rural tranquility.

The community originally started as two rival railroad settlements that joined forces back in 1920, and that cooperative spirit still shapes the area today. Families appreciate having the Highland School District right in town for K-12 education, anchoring local sports and community gatherings. Traditions like the annual June Picnic bring neighbors together, giving Craigmont a warm, welcoming hometown feel.
