Right on the water

Campsites along the Yellowstone River. Large sites. Vault toilets. Swift current, but clear water. People were swimming up closer to the dam - by the access. Lots of bugs.

Wonderful Place

The sites are level and grass is nicely mowed. There are fire rings and picnic tables. It has great access to the river, right below the dam and has a boat dock. Lots of trees for shade! The campground has toilets and water (push and hold the nozzle down). If you come during paddlefishing season (May & June), the banks will be filled with fishermen trying to snag into one of these fish. Though it's a busy time of year, it's a wonderful time to stay and see them working in fish that can reach over 100 lbs. There is also great sturgeon fishing in the area as well. Absolutely recommend staying here!

Peaceful Serenity!!

We arrived in the afternoon on a Friday in October. There is a check-in box to drop your $18 and fill out your information. We first noticed how level so many of the campsites were and many of them on the river with a view. We among a total of 3 overnight camper so there was plenty of room. I metal detect and so did that and took our Great Dane and Bassett Hound got a walk. The trees are so golden right now it was an incredible sight! There were restrooms but we never used them. We felt safe there the entire time.

Pretty rustic

Lots of mosquitos and flies! Please read other review, it’s very accurate. Shaded, easy river access. Pelicans at falls! Very off the beaten track, I arrived on a Saturday as park was full, still plenty off sites open.

Siteidk what site, didn’t see numbers, but right on the river😊

Cottonwoods along Yellowstone River

We stayed here for 2 nights just relaxing along the Yellowstone River. Price was $18 unless you had a Montana Fishing license. The sites were wide and spacious. We were there September 2020 and few people were there. The huge cottonwoods were turning gold. Yes, there is a dam but it was quiet. The sites are really spread out and several like ours were by the river. There were vault toilets scattered about and two water pump spigots with amazing water pressure. Garbage cans were also provided. There were also a fire ring and a picnic table. It was a quiet campground away from the highway that didn’t see much traffic.
