Town of Drummond Campground

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Drummond Community Park sits right off I-90 in the small ranching town of Drummond, Montana, making it a practical overnight stop for travelers running the corridor between Glacier and Yellowstone. The campground is municipally managed, open May 15 through October 1, and charges just $10 per night for standard sites or $25 for electric and water hookups. Payment goes into a cash box on-site. It's a no-frills setup that delivers on the basics.

The park occupies an open grassy area alongside a river, and the water draws most of the attention from campers. Rob N. notes "playground for kids, and river nearby," and multiple reviewers mention fishing and watching the water from camp. The surrounding grounds also include a rodeo arena, horseshoe pit, and a little league field, though these aren't always in active use. Bring bug spray. Train noise is worth knowing about in advance: freight trains pass through every few hours, which several reviewers flag as the one consistent disruption to an otherwise low-key stay.

The campground has only four electric hookup sites, and those tend to fill first on summer evenings. Larger rigs should note that some trees create clearance issues for tall trailers, and one reviewer points out that GPS directions can be unreliable. Follow written directions from the town instead. Early in the season, utilities may not yet be active, as at least one visitor found water and electricity still offline in late May. The sites are generally uncrowded, and claire W. describes it as "very quiet except for trains every few hours."

RVs up to 40 feet are accommodated, and the campground provides drinking water, toilets, picnic tables, a dump station, and a camp host who has been noted as welcoming. For campers routing through central Montana, options like Douglas Creek Cabin to the south or Bearmouth Rest Area I-90 Eastbound to the northwest offer additional stopping points along the same general corridor. Drummond Community Park works best for road-trippers and RV travelers who need a clean, inexpensive overnight with hookup access and don't mind the occasional passing train.

Many campers appreciated the clean sites, welcoming host, and excellent $10 value in this city park setting. Train noise every few hours was noted but generally accepted. River access and family amenities add appeal.

Close to freeway overnight

Mapping directions are OFF. Follow written instructions from town. The water and electricity are dead (May) still to be prepped for season. Some trees obstructing clearance for tall trailers. Nice open space near river, worked well for two overnight stays.

Great pass through spot

This is a great little spot if you are passing through. It’s located conveniently between glacier and Yellowstone for a halfway stop right off the highway. We arrived late afternoon set up and enjoyed watching the water. There are plenty of sites here. I don’t think it likely fills up completely very often. Quiet and enjoyable. Payment is a cash box. It’s only $10 per night or 25 if you want to use the hook up.

Cheap. Smaller, always has availability

Best $10 campsites imaginable. I have always enjoyed able to roll up and there was an available site. Good for traders up to 23ft and even has water and power sites. Sweet little secret gem of a campground and centrally located close enough range of possibilities to go see around Central Montana. Bring bug spray.

Great for a night!

Older campground in city park. Well worth $10 for the night. Playground for kids, and river nearby. Occasional train goes by but much rather that than noise of trucks in Walmart parking lots.

Quick stop overnight

I love this adorable city park we arrived about 7 pm and the 4 electrical hook ups were taken and there were some day users and a few car campers. No facilities but, THERE is a rodeo park, not in use tonight. Also a horse shoe pu, little league field and a fishing stream where on of the car campers caught 2 fish (? Type). It is very quiet except for trains every few hours. I love it for the host who greated us and keeps the greens and flower boxes watered from a water container in his trunk. I have a navion motor home. There was a level grassy knoll but if it were crowded it could be trouble with parking and noise. But on July 7th 2021, lovely sunset.

Nice place if you are just passing through

We showed up LATE and left early because we were just passing through. There didn’t seem to be designated camping spots but it wasn’t bad at all......... except for the train that came through every few hours!

$10.00 for tents $25 for full hookups.
