Managed by Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks, General Custer Fishing Access Road sits along a marshy stretch of the Bighorn River area north of Hardin, with direct water access drawing anglers and drive-in campers. The site has roughly three camping spots, at least one picnic table, and a toilet on-site. Cell service is unreliable here. Conditions vary: one visit found the area freshly mowed and the restroom clean, while another noted standing trash and heavy mosquitoes typical of marsh environments. One access spur runs through dense willow growth that can scrape vehicle sides. Campfires and pets are permitted. Anglers looking for a no-frills riverside stop with quick water access will find this worth a look.
