Eleven miles northwest of Deer Lodge, this Forest Service campground operates in two sections connected by a road crossing. The main area holds 11 unnumbered sites, while the second section features two large family camps and a day use area with pavilion. A single hand pump provides water for the campground section.
Sites vary in their ability to accommodate tents on level ground, and several lack fire rings despite having picnic tables. The family areas include six or more picnic tables each along with fire rings and grills. Vault toilets serve each section - older wooden structures that remain functional. Large trees provide substantial shade coverage in the main camping area, with lighter tree cover in the family sections. The facility receives minimal use and maintenance according to recent visitors, making it suitable for camp sites near Deer Lodge seekers who prefer less developed conditions.
