Nice!!
Was able to snag a primitive spot for one night. This campground isnt too far off I90 near 3 Forks, MT. No cell service (ATT) at the campground but 5g at the caverns. Hosts were super friendly and nice. I was in A7 which had a nice shade tree. Did not use the facilities so can’t speak to that. They had a guest speaker that night share about the bat population in MT. Very interesting!! Be sure to unhook and get to the caverns early in the morning to get a reservation to tour. We did the Paradise tour as my son is in a wheelchair. The classic tour looked super cool though!

Standard KOA with a great view
Stayed 8-1-24
Good: KOA like expected, but great view.
Bad: Mile long dirt road to get to entrance.
Would I stay again: ?, I might try West entrance next time.

Red Cliff Campground
Clean but crowded on the Gallatin
I booked 2 nights on Recreation.gov less than 3 weeks in advance. I was camping while working an event in Big Sky.
The campground is quite large, and this time of year, completely full every night. It is right on the river and very close to the highway. This means it is not quiet. Still, it’s 10 minutes to Big Sky, clean and well equipped. Overall a good choice in this area if you can make a reservation.
There are bear-safe food storage lockers, fire rings, and picnic tables at each camp site. Long before the bears eat you, the mosquitoes and deer flies will. Bug spray advised. Pit toilets are well-used but reasonably clean. The on-site hosts make sure to mark reservation cards on each site, and put signs at the entrance when the campgrounds is full. This kept traffic inside the campground to a minimum. Much appreciated.

Beautiful Big Sky adjacent to Gallatin River
Nice campground near Adjacent to Gallatin River. Some sites are actually right next to the river. Our site, 43, up on the hill, would be perfect except for the proximity of the vault toilet. The vault toilet was extremely clean and did not smell at all, inside the room, however, at our campsite, every now and then, we would get an unpleasant waft. Camp sites are well spaced and some even have hook ups (not 43). Our site was unique and nice as it was tri-level. Level 1 is parking/trailer, level 2 is fire ring and table, level 3 is an area to set up a tent.

Lake Camping
Carter Lake south shore. NIce pull through sites with electric. Dump station with easy access. Many sites on the lake and more with lake view. Many shaded sites. Boats allowed. Very pleasant experience.

Not great for the price
This place seems to be nicer than nearby campsites, but stinky toilets with no toilet paper, outdoor shower with cold water for $54 for a small camper was quite disappointing. Trains and highway noises are extremely loud as others mentioned

RangerLewis & Clark Caverns State Park — Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park
Great location near the caves
Great hosts, clean and well maintained. They do have drop in non reservation sites, but recommend getting reservations as well as cave tour reservations on line In Advance. Walk in for the cave tours without reservations best between 9 and 11 am. Beware, it's a 2mi hike uphill from the campground of you don't want to drive your rv up the caves! Deer visited camp at night! Check weather report, strong winds and we had thunderstorms. Warm showers $3. (Cave tours not included in camp fee, dump is $5 also). Some hiking in area, but .. bears!

Horrible location, lots of foot and vehicle traffic, very small camping spaces. Cars go as fast as they want, I was right on the main road AND next to the walking path. Yeah it sucked . Never again.

Stopped here to find several spots available. You can reserve online or just show up and pay at the fee station. Each space has its own bear box, table and grill. We stayed in a back in non Hookup site. There are Electric sites available too.

Great for an overnight stay
We stayed her for 1 night on a road trip in one of the tent sites and it was perfect. There were several options to put our tent on our site including an area covered by trees and secluded from the rest of the park. It was right on the Yellowstone River. The staff was VERY friendly!

Beautiful Scenery | watch out for Wildlife
Campsite 1 was probably not the best choice but we loved the view… so did our wild life friends
For sure there is 1 grizzly that’s pretty big. He checked out our truck tent.
Mountain Goats will come in your camp and they will do what goats do and want to check you out. They are not scared
The restrooms are shutdown in the camp but the lake access restroom down the hill does work
1 bear box for the whole camp ground so be prepared to store food in car or tree

Spire Rock Campground
Beautiful Area, worth it for trailers
Decent vault toilets and several of them. For the price the lack of water is not great but overall was worth it. One way road so keep that in mind if you have a large trailer.
We had a rooftop tent that worked well but tent users may find some sites a little close and overgrown
Site 18 I would not use if you have a tent. 17 backs into your site some and river access is limited between both sites

Pull in for the night - just off highway
Clean and flat pull up spots. If you’re ok with road noise and don’t want the “window knock” on your Campervan then this is a option for the night.
- SScott B.Traveler

Cool spot with horses but very loud.
We came in late and it was already dark. That may have contributed to the confusion in where to go when we first got there, but once we were there it was fine. Not a lot of privacy between spots but to pull in, set up camp and leave the next day it was worth it.
We LOVED visiting with the horses and they were very friendly and did not even mind when our dogs barked at them.
Biggest negative is that you can hear all the highway noise and trucks like to jake-break in this area. On the other side of the highway there were railroad tracks. The train blew its horn through this area ‘frequently and when it stopped you could hear all the train cars smashing together. This woke me up a couple times throughout the night but otherwise fine.
There is a pit toilet, with hand sanitizer.
We camped in a tent with our 2 dogs and young toddler.

Hood Creek Campground
Perfect get away!
This was of first destination in our new vintage camper and it did not disappoint! We were lucky to find a reservation opening last minute over the 4th of July holiday weekend. Our site was right on the water to enjoy paddle boarding on the wake free lake. The water was stunning but don’t let the warm summer temps fool you, this water is ice cold as it is filled from snow melt. Curvy switchbacks to get up the mountain, but fully paved. Site 09 had a flat spot for the camper but included steps going down to picnic table and fire ring (tent pad was down by the fire). The sites and bathrooms were very clean. Highly recommend if you want water and mountain views and don’t need a full hookup.

The KOA is tucked away from the main road. Is has beautiful views of the mountains and is very quiet. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful! We happened to have a trailer hitch problem and the amazing staff were quick to help and ensure we were taken care of. The bathrooms and showers were clean. We loved the dog friendly fenced in area.

Great views!
Woke up in the mountains at this campsite. Stayed here for the second year in a row because we loved it so much the first time. Great place to go stargazing. We stopped for coffee and lunch in Bozeman. They have the cutest bookstore that has "Blind date with a book" where books are covered in brown wrapping paper and you pick a book based on the staff's small hints about the story.

Unbeatable Hospitality
Called in last minute for a 1 night stay because my 1st option didn’t pan out. When they were escorting me to the campsite, they graciously upgraded me to a gravel pull through because it had been raining. I offered to pay extra but they said no worries. Bathrooms and shower house were very clean and private which was nice. Would highly recommend, especially with the Lewis and Clark caverns so close!

Peaceful and beautiful!
My site was very secluded, peaceful, and beautiful! There were very few other campers (it was a Wednesday), so it was very quiet. The hostess was very helpful and informative. My stay was perfect! There are bear boxes at every site.
kelly N.RangerThree Forks KOA Journey
Just ok
The staff were very friendly and as helpful as possible. The restrooms and showers were nice and clean. Small store, nice pavilion area and a huge dog area. I did not see a playground area. The sites are very small and very crowded. A small fire ring and picnic table at each site however to sit on our picnic table one of us would have to sit directly beside our neighbors sewer dump. At our site two lengths of sewer hose wouldn’t reach from our tank to the sewer dump, so even though we paid for full hookups we were only able to utilize water and electric. The roads in the park are also very tight and in my opinion not very big rig friendly.

Overall great campground
The hosts were very friendly and passionate about the up keep of their land. They were very flexible with check in and check out times and are pet friendly. Would definitely consider staying here again next time we visit the Bozeman area.

Only place open before April 1
Ended up here on a winter site that had electric but no water or bathroom facilities (I knew this). Site was plowed and I had plenty of room for my pickup with GFC camper to fit. Site was easy to find and despite all the snow was plowed for me. There are only two site that are available before April 1 so this was a convenient place to stay right near Bozeman for a night. Cost about $50. Could have stayed in a Walmart, but prefer to only put the rooftop tent up in proper campsites so this worked out well for me.
