Henry's Lake BLM Dispersed

It’s a bit of a drive off the beaten path, and you may find yourself thinking “is it really out here?” but it is. I promise. There are lots of dispersed sites on the way off of the paved road, but my partner and I stayed right next to Henry’s Lake with a gorgeous view. This was probably my favorite camping spot of the summer. We went in June while visiting Yellowstone. The weather was a little cold, so we made a fire and burned sage brush. The lake was swarming with non-bitting midges. They were quite literally everywhere and you could hear them flying, but they left us alone and we’re not an issue.

Very easy to get to, typed in Henry’s Lake in Google. Along the road there are plenty of camping spots, some amongst the trees and some in open fields. Tons of fallen trees around for firewood. Fire rings near sites. ATV trails and easy boat access along the lake for fishing and kayaking.

The road off the main road is rough and full of potholes, BUT once you’re down on the waterfront it smooths out and the spots are fairly smooth. The dogs are loving it and the bird watching is awesome!
