Fishing

Great fishing access site. There are trains close by but that didn't bother too much. If you stay with kids there are spots where the river current is quite strong close to shore.

Yellowstone river

Camping and fishing on the Yellowstone river. Fun for the kids and only a few miles from town to get supplies. Campsites are on the smaller side.
