Fun June camping

We had a really nice couple of mid week nights here. We couldn’t get two consecutive nights in a row so had to move spots, but it wasn’t a big deal. Our daughter braved a chilly swim and there were lots of dirt roads and little trails for the strider bikes. Bring bug spray, the mosquitos are out. They really go nuts when you first pull in but relax after a few minutes. Keep an eye out for bears. We saw a black bear across the road from the campground. The closest cell service is just outside of Seeley Lake.

Good camp spot in a great location

This is a good Forest Service campground in a beautiful spot on Holland Lake. The only issues we had were that it is not terribly remote so there are a lot of huge fifthwheelers who think they should have the best spots and they are willing o fight for them. (It’s always other campers that lower the tone…)

You will not be disappointed camping here! It’s a gem. Had a blast and was lucky to see a moose swim across the lake from our canoe.

Great camping, swimming, paddling, hiking, views

We love this campground! The views are gorgeous, the sites big, the pit toilets clean, and the people friendly. At the lodge(and the campground now, too, I believe) you can rent kayaks and/or paddle boards. The hike to the waterfall is beautiful, and swimming and snorkeling in this lake are wonderful due to the clarity and purity. One can also take a fun hike all around the lake in four or five hours(but be sure to bring bug spray) and walk over to see the horses in the adjacent horse campground. Why it didn’t earn five stars: the road to the campgrounds are gravel and heavily trafficked, which means that it can get pretty dusty, creating a blanket of dust over the lake if a busy weekend. Also, because the vast majority of users are kayakers and paddle boarders, the lake’s shape and smaller size mean that it can be a challenge for motorized users to keep distance from them. Overall, a lovely, natural lake.

Holland Lake camping trip

My husband and I camped at Holland Lake Campground in July 2020. The campground host was really friendly and helped us out a lot. There are several trails to go on atv rides and you could get out on the lake too. The host have a kayaks you could rent. There's Holland Lake Lodge too but I think you have to book it way in advance to get a room. We camped in our tent while most other campers there had RVs or campers. It's comfortable as long as it doesn't rain on you. There are bathrooms that are fairly clean for a campground with a sink, soap, and TP. The view of the lake is gorgeous and they do fireworks on the lake over 4th of July. If you need to go for a drive to look for food or anything, there's a Mercantile down the main road a few miles and you can also drive to Seeley (in town). There's a gas station in Seeley with really good hot stuff pizza. Anyway we had a really good time out there. Brought our fourwheeler and rode several trails, had a real camping experience.

We’ve done our big family camping here for 30 years or more. It’s usually crowded and typical of a state park type campground. But it’s close to the lake and views there are spectacular.

Quiet, Pristine Mountain Lake

If you're looking for a sleepy spot to relax and enjoy that isn't inundated with tourists, this is the place. This lovely lake campground has spacious sites, most are level and graveled, picnic tables, pit toilets, potable water on site, a lodge style restaurant for meals and drinks, and hiking trails right from the campground. Everything is kept neat and tidy, and the boat launch is not far from the campground. The launch is very shallow, so you're not going to get a surf boat in, or a large pontoon boat either, which is part of why this lake is still peaceful. Lots of opportunity to kayak, paddle board and swim. It's pet friendly, and campers regularly leave their water toys, kayaks, canoes, etc., on the shoreline during their stay with no fear of them being stollen. The hike to Holland Falls is suitable for beginners and children, but be aware that it's rocky when you reach the falls, and dogs and children should be supervised in that area. There are both black and grizzly bears that frequent this area daily, so be very careful with your food, and bear aware when hiking. My last stay was only 2 nights, and I ran into two bears, one that strolled right by my trailer. This is my favorite camp ground for an escape from reality!

There is a beautiful waterfall that is visible from the camp ground and is a fairly easy hike too. Camp ground has a lot amenities and the Holland Lake Lodge is also there if your in need of something a little extra! Don’t miss out!

Beautiful setting

Holland Lake is very pretty and the campground is in good shape. I didn’t get to go to the falls because there was a dead mule off the trail which drew attention of some grizzlies. The campground is well shaded which kept the temperatures down even on s hot day. The mosquitoes were pretty bad in early July.

Gorgeous Camping

This is one of my favorite spots in Montana. The lake itself is gorgeous, and the camping spots are beautiful. There's even one site on the island, if you brought a canoe or kayak, as we did! There's a short hike up to the waterfall and a longer hike to upper waterfalls. The water on the lake is crystal clear, and while motor boats are allowed, people appreciate the quiet a bit more. There are views in all directions, the camping is quiet, the sunsets are beautiful. There are mosquitoes, but they're not terrible, so bring some bug spray and you should be fine. As always, please practice LNT!
