Aspen Grove Campground

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

At $15 per night with first-come, first-served availability, Aspen Grove Campground fills up during summer weekends, so arriving early matters. The 19 sites are divided across two loops within Helena National Forest, set among mature cottonwoods, lodgepole pines, junipers, and a scattering of aspens along the upper Blackfoot River. RVs are accommodated up to 20 feet. When entering, bear right at the fork; the left branch leads to the adjacent Aspen Grove Group Use Area, which is the only part of the complex that accepts reservations.

Facilities include three vault toilets, potable water from multiple spigots, picnic tables, and trash service. Cell service is listed as available. The campground is ADA accessible and allows pets. Horse flies have been noted as a nuisance in summer, worth factoring in for those planning a longer stay. One reviewer described it as a "quiet area off highway near Blackfoot River," which holds in shoulder season when crowds thin considerably.

The river proximity is the most consistent detail across reviews. Campers mention the Blackfoot repeatedly, and the setting along its upper reach gives the sites a distinct character that flat, forested campgrounds without water access lack. In winter, the fee is waived if road conditions permit entry.

Campers wanting a different setup can look at Cummings Cabin to the east, or check places to camp around Lincoln for a broader set of options in the area.

Many campers appreciated the clean, quiet riverside location with potable water and basic facilities. Horse flies noted as seasonal nuisance but overall pleasant setting along Blackfoot River headwaters.

Great campground on upper blackfoot river + Ranger Review of Liquid I.V.

Aspen Grove Campground is a nice campground just before Aspen Grove Group Use Campground. Aspen Grove Campground features 19 campsite nestled in a mature grove of cottonwoods, Lodgepole pines, junipers and a few aspens, all sitting on the banks of the upper Black Foot River. The campground is split between two loops. The campground is served by three Vault Toilets and has running water as well as trash service. When entering Aspen Grove Campground turn right at the fort in the road to go to the campground are, a left turn will take you to the group use area. Camping in the Aspen Grove Campground is first come first served. Only the group use area can be reserved. A note about the price of camping at Aspen Grove, in 2018 the fee was $10 but is scheduled to increase to $15 this year. This tends to be a busy campground in the summer. In the winter off season there is no fee to use the campground if weather conditions allow access. On a historical note, Meriweather Lewis passed through this area in 1806 during their return trip.

Ranger Review of Liquid I.V.™ Hydration Multiplier Lemon-Lime Flavor at Aspen Grove Campground

Gave Liquid I.V. Lemon-lime flavor a try and half to say that this stuff tastes great. The flavor is way above the lemon-lime name-brand sports drinks on the market. The mouth feel while drinking liquid I.V. I found to be better at quenching my thirst than those other products. These two factors alone would get me more hydrated. I intentionally tried out Liquid I.V. when I was dehydrated and half to say I could feel relief faster than I would normally with water or sports drinks. I am looking forward to having liquid I.V. with me during several backpacking trips planned this summer.
