Spring Valley Reservoir has been a place I have visited since I was a young child and now I have introduced it to my children.  Unfortunately the past few times I have visted the reservoir it has increasingly become more and more of a disappointment.  Although there are ''camp hosts'' that are designated for the area they are not available and the swim beach, restrooms, trails are littered and vandalized.  When we have used the area for camping there have been individuals speeding in and out of the park, partying all hours of the night and the camp hosts do not intervene.  I have yet to see them interact with guest of Spring Valley nor have I seen them working on the area.  I assume that they are being allowed to live there without costs in trade for taking care of and monitoring the area.  I think this should be reviewed by the State especially if our tax dollars are going for upkeep and care of this valuable and beautiful reservoir.

    Spring Valley Reservoir is a very beautiful lake in beautiful surroundings. Here at Spring Valley Reservoir you'll almost certainly meet some people from Moscow; a great close by hotel is Super 8 Motel - Moscow. Spring Valley Reservoir truly is in the middle of a wonderful outdoors paradise. If you need a spot to stay Palouse Inn is a nice choice; you can have a great hiking adventure along the Sand Mountain Lookout Trail.
If you come at the right time of year,
 
   Big Bear River offers some great whitewater, and going for a hike along the White Pine Scenic Drive will let you absorb the natural beauty of this neighborhood. Spring Valley Reservoir is right next door to Spring Valley Dam which is a wonderful spot without doubt worth checking out, and unsurprisingly Bergs Creek is a pretty stream that is worth checking out. Throughout the months of summer highs here at Spring Valley Reservoir reach the 80's with nighttime  
               lows in the 40's. Daytime highs during the winter are in the 30's, and winter nights come with lows in the 20's to Spring Valley Reservoir.
This lake is so wonderful. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then we recommend Potlatch River, and hiking along the White Pine National Recreation Trail is good fun. An average amount of precipitation falls at Spring Valley Reservoir; the month of December is the wettest with most of the snow, and the driest month of the year is July.
