Trout Creek Campground (Mt) — Lolo National Forest

Fishing enthusiasts will find brook trout swimming in the waters accessible from this small Forest Service campground. Located just five miles off Interstate 90, Trout Creek Campground sits streamside within Lolo National Forest, providing water hookups for RVs alongside standard amenities like fire rings and picnic tables.

The campground's proximity to flowing water creates its main appeal. "Fun spot for fishing," notes Bonnie E., who mentions boat access and good fishing opportunities for those who know the productive spots. Sites sit close together with limited privacy screening between them, though the maintained grounds stay clean according to multiple visitors.

Road traffic from forest access routes creates some noise throughout the day, though evenings tend to quiet down. The campground serves as a convenient overnight stop for travelers heading into the Bitterroot Mountains, with pit toilets and the soothing sound of creek water nearby. Wildlife including mountain goats, moose, deer, and elk frequent the area, so pet owners should keep dogs controlled.

At $15 per night, the campground rarely fills up completely. Arrive with cash for the fee and consider bringing extra water despite the hookups available.

Decent Stopover

Pulled in for a night on the way to Bitterroots. Camp was clean, quiet for the most part but decent amount of traffic on the road in and out of the forest.

Perfect stream side campground

Just 5 miles off of I-90, this small stream side forest service campground offers you a shady retreat to rest for the night. Pit toilets, fire rings, and tables are standard here but the campground's real charm is sitting next to the stream where you can relax to the flowing water or fish. There aren't many spots here but we didn't have a hard time just pulling up and snagging a spot.

Finley Flats

Fun spot for fishing. Lots of fish to catch if you know where to go. Boat access. Camps are close together and don’t offer much coverage. Kept clean.

Trout Creek up to Hidden Lake

This hike into the lakes is not for the faint of heart, but the most breath taking views of Montana at its finest. There are plenty of Brook trout and huckleberries to eat at each trail and lake. There is also a lot of wild life, including mountain goats, moose, deer, and elk. Please make sure when bringing pets that they know not to chase these animals and always look at fire reports before heading into this area.
