Miles City KOA and Hardin KOA offer traditional KOA-style cabin accommodations with amenities like drinking water, electric hookups, and access to shower facilities. Cabin guests typically have access to communal bathrooms and showers. "Bathroom/shower facility was clean. Plenty of shade," noted one camper about their Wagon Wheel Campground stay.

Cabins in the Colstrip region vary in size and amenities depending on location. KOA properties generally operate seasonally, with Hardin KOA open April through mid-October and Miles City KOA available year-round. Most cabin sites include picnic tables, and some provide fire rings where permitted. Reservation policies differ between properties, with Whitetail Cabin prohibiting pets while the KOA locations allow them. The cabins at 7th Ranch RV Park receive particularly positive reviews for cleanliness and comfort. A visitor remarked, "The bathhouse was clean and in great condition. The views were stunning."

Most basic cabins require guests to bring their own bedding, pillows, and personal items. Kitchen facilities vary significantly between locations, from simple picnic tables to properties with access to camp stores.

While Whitetail Cabin offers limited amenities with no drinking water available on site, the KOA locations provide more comprehensive facilities. The Wagon Wheel Campground is conveniently located near town services, making it easier to purchase supplies. Cooking equipment is generally not provided, so visitors should plan to bring their own portable stoves or grilling equipment where fires are permitted.

    Wagon Wheel Campground

    Great proximity to Yellowstone

    This place has great proximity to Yellowstone but that’s where the positives end. The spaces were very tight to the point where you need to watch out for your awning or slide. You butt up to the RV behind you and share water/electric and sewer with them. The whole place felt over crowded. The pet area is a gravel lot across the alley and down a ways. Still worth staying here because you can watch sunset in the park and be set up and in bed so quickly.

    Wonderful Stay!

    My husband and I stayed here for a few months while he was working the outtage in colstrip, MT and couldn't have asked for a better stay. Very pet friendly with wonderful ammenities. Bobbie was very kind and accommodating! We have a 35 foot fifth wheel and felt we had plenty of room to put out out awning and really spread out. Highly recommend!

    Miles City KOA

    Nice KOA

    This review is from the perspective of an overnight or short-term stay versus a destination location. We ensured we obeyed the campground’s(CG) instructional email stating to take Exit 135 and no others as there’s a low bridge through town from the other exits. We then followed the instructions to this quaint little KOA CG. The people running the CG were super friendly, and check-in was quick and easy. We were led to pull through site 82 with FHUs. The utilities were placed in the middle of the site to include two sewer connections, which was nice as our new Brinkley Toy Hauler has two sewer connections. The sites have newer picnic tables and fire pits. The WiFi speed here was okay, and we got enough of a northern shot through the mature trees to have usable Starlink. We got 4 bars on Verizon. The water pressure was also good. They have a spacious laundry with a nice book swap library. The office has a small gift shop with grocery items, including selling local steaks, as this is where the USDA’s Fort Keogh Livestock and Range Research Laboratory is located. They have a medium-sized fenced-in dog run, but there is plenty of room to walk your dog, especially out of the west side of the CG near the Yellowstone River. We enjoyed our overnight stay here.

    Wagon Wheel Campground

    I love my site

    I can’t decide how I feel about this campground. I’m VERY happy with my site, but can see how others may not be. It’s a small campground, located in a quiet area of town, but a few blocks distance from center of town. It’s quiet at the campground. It’s small, right quarters, and some sites face the road (side road). It’s well shaded, full hook up, has bathrooms and showers, and owners are super sweet and very accommodating! My site is right in the middle and perfect! I’m not sure I’d stay here again, unless I was sure to get my choice of sites. I’m here for 4 nights and am enjoying my stay. Centrally located to easy access at west entrance

    7th Ranch RV Park

    Won’t regret your stay!

    I am usually pretty doubtful about booking privately run campgrounds and try to mostly avoid them. However, this place was the exception to that rule. The place is pristine, nicely landscaped and it’s obvious they work hard to keep it looking so welcoming. All sites are pull thru with full hookup. Plenty of open area to get out and walk. We travel with 2 large dogs and the campground has excellent places to walk dogs. They also don’t mind your dog off leash if outside the “fenced”area. The store sells homemade food items and the welcoming free ice cream bars are a thoughtful and yummy touch. Ice can be purchased in the store. Bathrooms are exceptionally clean. Showers hot with good water pressure. Laundry facilities- 3 washing machines, 3 dryers which did become a high demand while we were there. One reviewer complained bitterly about the train keeping him awake. I’m a light sleeper and had no trouble sleeping. If I had found it troubling I believe our rv fan/a/c would “cover” the train sound. The sunsets are beautiful. This campground was a relaxing way to “recharge” after a long day. Peaceful and restful.

    7th Ranch RV Park

    What a Find!

    Can’t say enough about this park! The couple who run it are incredibly nice. Check in was a breeze and they give you tokens for free ice cream at registration. We were quickly escorted to our site. Sites are pull through and we did require a little bit of leveling. All hook-ups worked great.

    Most sites have a patch of lush green grass and a tree for shade as well as a picnic table.

    The laundry room has 3 sets of washers/dryers and if I remember correctly, it was $2.25 per machine. There was also a vending machine for detergent.

    The bathrooms and showers were the largest we’ve seen and spotless.

    A HUGE bonus was the additional 600 (?) acres to explore. Dogs are allowed off leash once through the gate and up the hill. The views are amazing from up there and it was the perfect spot to let the dogs run while we enjoyed the sunset.

    The park was wonderfully quiet both day and night. There is a small play area and some horse shoe pits available.

    Another added bonus was the freezer stocked with homemade pies! We picked up an apple pie to share with our friends on our next stop in Wyoming.

    Wagon Wheel Campground

    close but so far away

    It’s cramped. Very close spaces with no room to do much else. The spaces are staggered enough you’re not side by side, but still very cramped.

    Showers and restrooms are not the finest, 2 out of 4 toilets somewhat work and showers needed to be cleaned.

    It is costly to stay here. There is internet (slow, so don’t expect to download a movie) and cable, water and electric are standard.

    Parking is difficult. you have to park out away from your camper and walk back through the campground. The cramped conditions keep people from backing into the tight spaces; therefore, making you park away from your campsite.

    There is a game room, but beware you have to pay for every game.

    You are close to Yellowstone NP and that is about the only nice thing about staying here.

    In summery, if you need just a place to hookup and sleep and don’t mind being close to other campers this place will work. If you like some privacy and want to actually camp with the family this is not very suitable, no place to set up the hammock, no camp fires, and no extra room for your favorite camp chair!

    Just the observation of a family guy with wife and kids who love to camp and love our National Parks...

    Miles City KOA

    Great stopover along your journey!

    This is a Journey KOA. It’s naturally close to the interstate and very nicely maintained. The bathhouse had been recently painted and the showers recently tiled. The staff were very kind and welcoming. Small off leash Kamp K9 park for your pup and a nice playground for kids. A community patio and grille was available too if you were interested. We opted for a patio site and it had the cutest wooden swing to relax in after a weary-making day on the road. There’s a neighborhood essentially surrounding the park. People (locals) often walked their pets road along the outside of the campground. Very friendly, small town/kind folks. Next to a railroad and the workers arrived early to begin their workday. This is a KOA Journey though so it’s close to businesses/highways, meant to be an easy stopover so the surroundings shouldn’t takeaway from this great campground getting 5 stars.

    7th Ranch RV Park

    It's a green oasis for a Ranch

    Everything one could ever want without having stores close by. There is a gift store that sells prepared meals. The bathroom/showers look newly remodeled. Washer and dryers available. The wifi was not working but they can fix that easily. The sunset is breathtaking and the free Huckleberry ice cream sandwich is NOT forgetful. I will stop by again.
