Clean next to the river

It’s right next to the river with a small boat launch. Right off the highway and the train tracks are on the other side of the river but the highways was fairly quiet at night and we only heard one train.

10 if not for I90 and trains

This is an absolutely lovely rustic campground. It offers clean pit toilets, trash receptacles, large private sites, many of which are pull through, RV water filling stations, free firewood (5 pieces or night) provided by the very friendly Hosts, and some T-Mobile service. We enjoyed sitting in our space watching the river flo and, the anglers and the trains go by. What brings the campground down to a four is that it is nestled between I 90 and a very active train line. It takes getting used to the noise. many of the sites in the campground are available for reservation through NPS. But there are still first come first serve sites, 26 being one of them, and it was beautiful. If you’re looking for camp stores, playgrounds, showers, or laundromats this is not the campground for you. I would stay again off passing through the area.

Must love trains

We’ve been camping at Sloway for years because I love hearing the trains all night long! If you don’t like train and highway noise, stay far away!

While my hubby flyfishes, I float on the Clark Fork. You can put in right from your campsite, the beach by the pullthru sites, Dry Creek or Superior, then float to your campsite/beach, St Regis, or 14 Mile/Ferry Landing.

Typical Glamping site

Picnic table and fire rings. Not much privacy and close to the road. A lot of relational activities in the area for fishing, rafting, boating, hiking and even. Hot springs within an hour drive

Solid campsite along the river

Good place overall. They close the 21st of September and had the water already shut off on the 20th, which kind of sucked. But other than that the campsite was great and not too far from interstate, so convenient for my roodtrip.

Must love trains

We ended up not staying here. We didn't know there were trains running all night long. It wouldn't be so bad without the whistle. If only we had earplugs, I think that would have helped a lot. Also, I am downloading a white noise app on my phone. With the two, we most likely could/would have stayed.

The campground itself is just what we look for. Beautiful setting. Wooded for shade. Generous spacing Between sights. Water, in this case the Clark Forks River. Nice host and campers. Shopping (in case we need provisions) without driving far, in this case St. Regis. If we xome back through this was, we will come prepared and give it a try.

Train horns ruined it

Lovely campground and host, right by the river. Super loud train horns every couple of hours (all night!) ruined it for us. Maybe outside summer when you don’t need your windows open?

Beautiful setting - but......

I have camped @ Sloway for many years. The setting on the Clark Fork River is fantastic, especially for the 4-5 campsites that have river frontage. The I-90 highway runs fairly close to the campground & the noise can be distracting at times. The bigger noise maker is the train that runs on the other side of the Clark Fork River. There are two road crossings across from the campground, and the trains are required to blow their horns when approaching these crossings. This can be annoying when the railroad is running a lot of trains during the night. The campground is very clean & usually only crowded on the holidays.

Train noise was no joke but otherwise great

Nice campground, privacy btwn sites was good, right on river, beautiful scenery. We were there late September and it was pretty vacant. The noise from the trains was no joke. Woke us up about 5 times overnight, fortunately toddler slept through it. Overall would stay again.

Perfect camping layover spot

Lots of camp sites right on the river. Spaced out very nicely. You can hear some highway traffic and the train does com right up next to the river. Not too busy but we were there on a weekday.
