Part of the Bear Creek Wildlife Management Area, this Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks campground operates from June through November in forested terrain alongside Bear Creek. The facility provides drinking water and toilet facilities but prohibits pets, making it distinct from many area camping options.
Campers find the campground positioned near other Bear Creek facilities, including the Bear Creek Campground less than half a mile south. The creek setting offers water access in a managed wildlife area. Those exploring the broader region can access places to camp around Cameron for additional overnight options in the Ennis area.
Description
Bear Creek Campground offers a nice Summer or Fall destination for those looking to camp, hike or picnic on the Forest.
