    Moose Creek Cabin

    Great Forest Sevice cabin, very easy to get to.

    Moose Creek cabin is a nice fairly large cabin.  It features a kitchen area, living room and two bedrooms each with two beds.  Cabin has electricity but no running water.  An outhouse is outside.  A nice metal fire ring is available with two picnic tables.  Fire wood is supplied during the winter months.  Wood stove is in the living room area to heat the cabin.  Kitchen is fully stocked with plates, cups and silverware.  A small propane stove is available but you need to bring your own propane.  If you need additional water the near by campground has a pump for water when open.  We took our Girl Scout Troop here in June and they had a great time.

    Strawberry Cabin

    Worth the hike for a winter advanture

    Staying at Strawberry lookout cabin in December was a great experience, well worth the 1 mile uphill hike to the cabin.  Our Venturing Crew stayed the night after pulling gear in a sled to the top in light snow.  Everyone had a great time at the cabin.  The cabin has a wood stove and firewood was provided.  Keep the fire small or you will cook in the little cabin, even when its cold outside.  A propane stove was provided but you will need to bring fuel.  The propane lantern was broken, but luckily we took along our own light sources.  Pots, pans, dishes and utensils are available in the cabin.  Plenty of games were in the cabinet to keep everyone entertained.  The cabin has two bunk beds, and a table with chairs.  Water is not available so you will need to bring it with you.  A vault toilet is next to the cabin.  Outside has a picnic table next to a fire ring.  Plenty of room if your group is to big for the cabin to set up tents.

    Moose Creek Cabin

    Great cabin

    It’s a great cabin it’s super close to the road it has two bedrooms they both have 2 beds a double and a single bed. It does have propane with a small 2 burner stove it also has a microwave toaster and coffee maker. Very standard for these cabins is you bring your linens but the mattress is a mattress not great but it’s a rustic cabin and VERY AFFORDABLE

    Sportsman Lodge, Cabins & RV Park

    Great spot, very friendly

    This is a great spot in a tiny town south of Butte Montana. They have a couple cabins, several motel rooms and about 10 full hookup, all grass, RV spots. Also a large area for car/tent camping. The grounds are meticulously maintained by the owner and it has nice views of the bluffs and mountains all around it. Walking distance to the restaurant and bar in town if that’s your thing. Quality hookups at each site, and each site has its own trash can. Clean bathrooms and laundry on site. Owners are very present and attentive on site and super friendly. Picnic tables at every site. One shared fire pit out front of the office. It’s in a very small town, with several fishing spots nearby. Very peaceful location. We would stay again.

    A few things to be aware of:

    • All sites are back in, but they are reasonably wide and very long.
    • It is about a mile or two from the interstate which is convenient but you can occasionally hear a large truck pass by.
    • There is a train track nearby, we heard about one train per day in the morning.
    • We were here in July and there were some mosquitos. If you plan to be outside probably bring a citronella candle or bug spray.

    Three 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.

    Three Forks KOA Journey

    A stop along the way

    This was a safe easy stop along the way from Yellowstone to Glacier National Park. $35. for a tent site with water hookup. Nothing fancy — a wooded parking lot with fire rings and picnic tables. Better than most RV lots. All spaces are pull through (huge relief traveling with a tiny cargo trailer that’s impossible to back up. No privacy. Hookups, laundry, bathrooms. The tent sites without hookups were cuter. The gate closes at 10. Check-in ends at 9p.m. Surrounded by farmland.

    Douglas Creek Cabin

    Great Little Cabin with friendly neighbors

    Very cute little cabin nestled next to a small creek. The area was very pretty, but had some broken fencing allowing tons of cows to surround the cabin on the morning. Very funny, but a little odd. Trip in was easy enough, road was slightly rutted, but nothing intolerable. A couple bunk beds were in the cabin, and it was definitely warm enough to survive.

    Eagle Guard Station

    Eagle Guard Station & Crow Creek Campground

    A long rough drive, very rocky, narrow roads to site but definitely worth the making! Secluded and serene campsites along Crow Creek with Fishing, there are no bathrooms, dry would fall for firewood, no fountains or water this must be packed in as well, closest store is in Townsend, pests are minimal, mainly mosquitos, lots of sage to burn to keep them away. Shaded grass areas with rock fire pits for camp, everything you want in a camp site with trails and hiking to Eagle Guard Station or Crow Creek Falls!

    Butte KOA

    Easy on/off the interstate

    This was our first stop after leaving Yellowstone.  Drove up to Butte because my husband wanted to go to a local exhibition that was happening that weekend and see Our Lady of the Rockies.  I didn't really walk around the campground, but it seemed like a smaller KOA.  It is easy to find right off the interstate.  I thought perhaps the highway noise would be an issue, but it was not.  As we were a week into our 2 week trip, I used our down time here to do some laundry.  The laundry room was in back of the store/main office where you register when you arrive.  I believe it was open 24 hours.  To my delight, you could also order pizza in the store.  I think they could have brought it to our site, but I couldn't remember the site number when I ordered so I just went back in about 30 min to get my order.  It was very simple, you only had two options--pepperoni or cheese, but the pizza was hot and tasted decent.  Not at all what I expected.  We did partake of the pool, which my toddler thought was fantastic and there was a small older playground next to the pool.  This KOA is right next to the Butte Visitor's Information Bureau and some nice looking walking trails.  We were in a site with full hook-ups, gravel pad with concrete patio, grill, firepit, picnic table and two rocking chairs.  I would have loved to spend some time in the rocking chairs had we not had some wonderful thunderstorms.  Had great cell service with Verizon as this campground is pretty much smack dab in the middle of Butte.
