Nine campsites sit along a forest service road near the Big Hole River, creating a compact BLM campground that draws anglers and river enthusiasts. Large pine trees shade the gravel parking pads, though the road separates campers from direct river access. A dirt boat ramp and expanded parking area accommodate trailers and watercraft.
Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring, with one vault toilet and a single bear box serving the entire campground. "Super buggy, bring the industrial strength mosquito repellent!" warns one reviewer, highlighting the heavy mosquito presence that multiple campers mention. The no-fee camping attracts both tent campers and RVs up to 24 feet, though generator noise can disrupt the quiet atmosphere.
The Big Hole River provides fishing opportunities right outside camp, while dispersed sites extend up the road for those seeking more space. Views stretch across the river toward ranch horses grazing in nearby pastures. Campers exploring the broader region can find campgrounds around Wise River for additional options. No water or trash service means visitors pack everything in and out.
This works best for self-sufficient campers who prioritize river access over amenities and don't mind sharing limited facilities with fellow outdoor enthusiasts.
