Beautiful, but stinky

The area was beautiful, plentiful fish, and peaceful. I’m not sure if it was because of the end of the season, but the restrooms were very smelly. I would go again, but it’s just a heads up about the stank!

Great little Lakeside Spot!

We only spent one night in this campground, but it was really lovely and I will definitely return for a longer stay. We were in site 5 with our pop-up trailer. The spot was level and had plenty of shade, a fire ring, and a picnic table. I think the best site in this CG a probably #4, which is at the end of the road on a hill right next to the lake. Most of the sites has food lockers, but site 5 didn't have one.

The bathrooms at this CG were clean and the camp host was friendly and attentive. There is access to potable water on the right side of the road as you enter the camping area. The lake is very nice. The kids and the pup really enjoyed swimming and paddleboarding here. The water was warm and clear and we had temperatures in the 80s during the day and probably in the high 50s overnight. Like I said, we liked this place a lot and I wish we had been able to spend more time here.

This CG isn't far from Troy, MT, which is very convenient if you need to run out to restock on groceries or whatever. That proximity to the road was the only minor downside. We could hear more road traffic than in some places. But the great things about this spot dar outweighed the one minor drawback.

Odd spots but great location

There are a handful of tent sites here. Several are on a hill next to each other beside the parking lot. 4 sites sit right along the lake. Great spot if camping near lake is your interest, however, lacks privacy as sites are directly beside each other. Awkward sites.
