Best for fly fishers

Found this campground to be very tightly packed sites. It’s right on Montana Creek so great for fly fishing. Across the highway is a private campground with hook ups and a market

This review is for the privately owned campground.

Awesome Gem in the Woods

Wonderful fishing access to Montana Creek, nicely wooded secluded spots with no hookups, some wide open spots with hookups available up front but no privacy. Quaint little store with wonderfully friendly host. Great hiking trails down to the confluence of Montana Creek into the Susitna River. Recycling bins for plastic bottles as aluminum cans available. Loved the trees and greenery but quick access to fishing made this campsite ideal for us.

Awesome spot right on the river.

This is a beautiful spot right on the creek. You can just walk from your camper to the creek just on the other side of the retaining wall. It is heavily wooded and would be difficult to maneuver with a larger RV or toy hauler.

Highways and Sun Rays

This is a great place to fish and play but it is located right next to the Parks Highway which can be loud and busy with tourists and semis in the summer. If you’re sleeping in a camper the noise might not be so bad but the Alaska Highway doesn’t have a quiet hour.

Nice campground and fun area

We have stayed here a few times and it has been nice. The area is great for fishing, we have always only fished there for silvers in early fall. Many places to hike around and you’re right on the creek. Campground is kept well and clean. I don’t feel like we had enough privacy between camp spots.
