Horsethief Station Fishing Access

Fishing enthusiasts will find direct creek access at this Montana state fishing access site, where a parallel waterway runs alongside all camping spots. Horsethief Station requires a Montana conservation license for overnight stays, available for $10 annually and mandatory for all public land camping statewide. The open layout provides no natural shade, making it well-suited for campers with solar setups who can take advantage of full sun exposure throughout the day.

Dogs can enjoy the creek access while their owners appreciate the quiet atmosphere away from busier campsites near Red Lodge. The site's proximity to water makes it a practical base for anglers targeting local fishing opportunities.
