Really nice place. We stopped here and decided to stay another night to take a break from driving the shower was great pressure was great. The water is soft, which is a plus the prices are great on the site and even the cokes.
TravelerA very nice stopover. The park is well-kept. Hookups worked well. Spacious setup. Loved the walking trail at the top of the park. Grocery just down the street. Very quiet and dark at night. Very friendly host. Nice laundry. Good wifi, adequate cell coverage for Verizon and AT&T. Stayed several days to explore the area where the prairie meets the Rocky Mountains. Lots of dirt road, but wonderful views. Also visited the waterfowl area and Freezout Lake. Very Montana.
ScoutWe happened upon this place later in the evening as we were traveling from Glacier National Park to Yellowstone. We were getting worried because it was getting dark. We got to the campsites after hours and the host was kind enough to come out and greet us even though their office had closed. It was $25 for a tent spot. They have clean restrooms and showers, a dishwashing sink, coin-op laundry, games of corn hole, a game/reading room, and a coin-op pool table. Our tent site provided privacy, fire pit, and table. We loved it. We didn’t get to enjoy it much since we got there late and left early, but it was wonderful! We would go back! Only downside was a loud siren going off around 6AM that sounded like an air raid siren from a nearby mill.
GuideWe needed a place to stop for a night while driving from Glacier to Yellowstone and enjoyed it here so much we ended up staying 3 nights! Every one of the staff members (and their parents who were visiting) were so friendly and accommodating, and you could tell they all worked hard and took pride in their campground. Level sites, spotless bathrooms and showers, laundry room, camp store and even mini golf. We would absolutely stay here again.
ScoutWe found this campsite on our way to Glacier National Park when we needed a tent site for the evening. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Only $22 for a site without electric hookups or $24 for one that does. The campground is very clean and offers showers, restrooms, laundry, dishwashing station, picnic table, cooking grill, fire pits, and WiFi included.
ScoutIt was a fun experience beautiful country and nice cabin ver comfortable. I’m not a tent camper so this cabin made me happy
ScoutWith no reservations or plans before entering Glacier we stopped here on a whim and were pleasantly surprised. The site is uniquely situated between the northern plains and Rockies and has excellent views of the mountains to the west and grasslands and buttes to the south. The staff were exceptionally nice and the facilities very clean. Overall we really enjoyed our stay at this “hidden” gem.
GuideThe people were wonderful, very accommodating and friendly. Well kept grounds and clean facilities. MIni golf course for entertainment. Beautiful area, only complaint was there wasn't a lot of shaded areas and camper sites were very close together.

Cozy Cabin near Lincoln. Great for families with small children (be bear aware though). Small secluded lake nearby for relaxed swimming.
ScoutWe stopped here on the way to Glacier. We didn’t have a reservation but there was plenty of availability. Really nice people running the place. Super helpful and pleasant. Sites were flat and grassy, bathrooms always clean. Nice breeze at night even in a heat wave.
GuideThis is a former KOA campground that was purchased by a family. We stayed her in the summer of 2018 during a very hot spell. We didn't have reservations and fit onto a site (#22) with a nice view of the distant mountains. Restrooms were always clean, even very early in the morning. We stayed two times. The second time we again didn't have reservations and they were expecting a large influx of families for a baseball tournament. They put us in the large RV area and we were grateful for accommodation. They have a small mini-golf area, picnic tables at the sites, and full hookups (as expected). They also have laundry facilities.
