Mill Creek Campground

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Beaverhead National Forest's Mill Creek Campground sits seven miles from Sheridan, at the end of a forest road in the Tobacco Root Mountains. The campground has 10 sites, each with a picnic table, fire ring, and a parking area large enough for two vehicles. Two hand pump wells and double vault toilets serve the camp. Heavy fir and pine canopy provides consistent shade across the sites. This is grizzly bear country, and food storage is required, either in a vehicle or the on-site bear-proof locker. Campers looking for something nearby with a different setup can consider Balanced Rock Campground, about 2.6 miles east along the same drainage.

Nice quite campground in the Tobacco Root Mountains

Mill Creek is a nice 10 site campground along Mill Creek in the Tobacco Root Mountains. The campground is 7 miles from the town of Sheridan. Note that the sign in Sheridan says the campground is 6 miles away, however it is 6 miles to the forest boundary, then another mile to the campground. The campground features 2 double vault toilets and two hand pump wells for water. This is a well shaded campground due to the large fir and pine trees. In the mile between the forest boundary and the campground about 6 marked primitive campsites can be found as well. Between the 2nd and 3rd campsites is a short trail leading to a large group fire ring with four benches circling it. All the campsites have a picnic table and fire rings. Each site has a large parking area that can easily fit two vehicles. This is grizzle bear territory, food must be stored in your car or the provided bear proof foot locker at the campground.
