Peaceful, Private, and Picturesque

The sites are just spaced out enough to feel private. In our site, we could barely see any other fires at night. It was great having easy access to the abandoned "D Loop" walking trail.

As others have said, these were some of the cleaner vault toilets we've seen.

Two night stay

The campground host was very active in ensuring the campground bathrooms were clean and tidy. They also went around in a cart with firewood if you needed it. Our campsite was close to a small hiking trail that led to a creek. We saw a few animals across the river which was nice.

Rugged and stunning

This is a paved campground with 3 loops, some reservation and some first come first serve. The campground host told us that he had the cleanest pit toilets in the territory and he wasn’t kidding! It even smelled clean. Overlooking quake lake and the skeletal trees that drown in the 1959 7.3 earthquake that brought a good portion of the mountain down and dammed the Madison river.

Paved roads, water spigots, bear box locations. It was quiet and absolutely beautiful, with the pine cover mountains surrounding it. We loved it!

Another awesome campground in Montana

You'll figure out by reading my reviews, that I favor mountainesque campgrounds, and as such, you'll probably think that I love this campground...... you'd be correct!

There's also close access to Quake Lake, and it's a short drive to Yellowstone!
