This is a nice area especially if you want to be totally isolated because there is no cell phone service here.  It is close enough to Helena that you are not too far from civilization should you want to pick up supplies or make a phone call.  The road is a bit rough and the vehicles do not slow down so be careful pulling out onto the main road from the campground area.  They were grading the road when I was there so it was a bit of a muddy mess but otherwise it was great.  Not a lot of people camp here probably because of the lack of cell service so it is a nice quiet place.  The bugs can get bad because the creek runs right along side of the road.

Nice quiet camping area

Nice stopping point between Glacier and Yellowstone. It was quiet and beautiful. The creek is fun to play in! The only negative was all the mosquitos! It was only $5 per night so it was worth it! 

Nice spot to rest

Clean and relaxing.  Table and fire ring at each site.  Nice creek and very little traffic noise.

Nice quite place.

Gast stove for cooking, wood stove for heat. Shed full of wood, fire pit and vault toilet. Beware of mice nests, otherwise cabin  was great. Hiking trail right by the cabin, even found some huckleberry nearby.

Great cabin

Nice and quiet, with only the sound of the creek. It was nice to cool off in the water.
There was a nice picnic table and fire ring. I hope to stay here again but it fills up fast.
I edited this review because the se come time I stayed here the bathroom was disgusting. I wish people weren’t slobs.
