Crystal Creek Campground

2 ReviewsAdd Review

Water activities draw visitors to Crystal Creek Campground, where Crystal Creek flows nearby and provides fishing opportunities within Deerlodge National Forest. This US Forest Service campground operates from July through September and accommodates RVs up to 16 feet with drive-in access.

The small facility features just three campsites, each equipped with a fire ring and picnic table. A pit toilet serves the campground, though campers should prepare for bugs during wetter seasons. The secluded setting keeps noise levels low. For those wanting more developed amenities, Gird Point offers additional facilities to the west.
