Harpers Lake

Only $12 a night if resident fishing license and $18 if not. Two lakes to swim or fish. And we had a decent size creek right by our campsite too. The majority of tent sites are literally huge. We had an amazing time staying here.

Good spot that’s just short of salmon and seely lake. It gets really packed in the summer but if you can go earlier in the year or mid week should be ok. Road getting in is dirt and gravel with some pot holes but nothing a travel trailer or midsize 5th wheel couldn’t do. Spots vary in size and side of which your door would open to the fire pit. There are larger and more secluded spots if the farther in your go. Nothing fancy here but, some decent trails to walk with the river right next to our campsite.

Nice campground no extras

It’s $12 a night per campground if you have your Montana’s fishing license, camp spots are right next to the river with easy access.

The campsite comes with a small fire pit and a picnic table there’s also access to restrooms in the warmer seasons.

There are no time restrictions and no gate, first come first served, about 15 spots.

Best state camp ground. Price is right, sites are great, close to town.

Harper's Lake north of Missoula on Hwy 83 and Hwy 200 right along the Clearwater River.the campground sports two small lakes Blanchard Lake and Harper's Lake which are within walking distance to the campground. The sites are mostly for tent camping, but there are sites large enough for trailers. There is no water, electricity or sewer hook-ups.

Quick stay, had a fire and some food near the river
