"We stayed at 7th Ranch RV Park in Garryowen, Montana in September 2021. This wonderful park is situated just a small drive from the Custers Last Stand and The Battle Of Little Bighorn."
GuideThis one of the nicest RV parks we’ve stayed at in 15 years of RVING. Very clean. 600 acres to explore if you want. You can bring your horse or off road vehicles too.
TravelerMy two hunting dogs ran amok for hours. There was nobody in the park but us. A few people drove through. The park is kept immaculate. There are several paths mowed down for great walks through the prairie. This is a dry campsite. If my dogs are happy, I'm happy. I can deal with rustic accommodations if I can exercise my dogs freely without leash laws! The pond and surrounding scenery are gorgeous. I actually enjoyed hearing the train and nearby farm equipment. It was a whole vibe. I did need to purchase my conservation license for Montana. I didn't know it was "a thing." $10....worth it!!! There was an abandoned campsite that the critters got into the garbage. From the looks of it, this person was here with a dog within the last week. There's a generator and deflated tent, fishing pole, and cooler with rotten food in it. I'd love to know the story there. Lots of wood ticks, btw. 🤮
GuideWe stayed at 7th Ranch RV Park in Garryowen, Montana in September 2021. This wonderful park is situated just a small drive from the Custers Last Stand and The Battle Of Little Bighorn. This is a family run park and working farm run by a family that has made this a must stop if you are traveling in this area . The sites are large pull-thru sites with FHU. All sites are tiered going up hill so everyone has amazing sunset views. Our site was a bit unlevel so bring your legos to assist in the setup. The sites all have trees and large grassy areas that are watered every night, so be forewarned. The road in is a dirt road which is a bit bumpy so slow down, as it’s only a short stretch till you get to the office. Big bonus is you get ice cream when you check in and who doesn’t like ice cream! They also sell homemade pies among other goodies in the office and they are delicious. Put this park on your list of places to stay when visiting Montana. It was an awesome stay for us.

GuideThis campground is absolutely beautiful and maintained immaculately. Being able to walk the prairie and watch the sunsets was a huge positive for this location.
LegendQuiet Montana FAS campground along the Yellowstone River. It is part of the extensive network of fishing access sites. Some are free, some aren’t and other FAS have no camping. There is a downloadable pamphlet with info on these facilities. Photo is of the gravel near the boat launch which a short drive from camping area.
Vault toilet/picnic table
Free
We were there in October 2019 plus September 2020
GuideGreat water and electric hookups with good water pressure. The staff here are very caring and hospitable, and the office has free ice cream and coffee!
We were delayed by a fire and bad storms and we called to say we wouldn’t be there before they close the office at 9:00 pm, but Laura said that she was concerned for us boondocking at Walmart, that there’s nothing available that night in Billings and that she’d stay late to let us in. Their hospitality shows in the nice selection of home-made freezer meals, Montana teas, and Montana honey for sale at homey prices.
ScoutGreat spot to camp if you’re road tripping and want easy access to i94. Quiet, walking trail, several spots available.
ScoutAfter reading all the positive reviews, this is where we were intent on staying. 5pm Sept 30th called the office because the APPs all said it was closed. To our surprise they were still open. We arrived to a clean, friendly and quiet space. Bonus our GoodSam membership gave us a discount. The showers and toilets were spotless! Laundry room, same $2.25 for each a load to wash and dry $5.00 convenience so worth it!
Will definitely return to this newly acquired family-run business
RangerCan’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.
