Best RV Parks & Resorts near Colstrip, MT

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.

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.

This place is great. Coming from the small town of Ashland you'll follow a well-maintained gravel road all the way to the site. If they don't plow it in winter, good luck, but I had no issues in late September. No 4WD needed.

Three sites in a wooded area with pretty solid views because the area around the campground must have burned not too long ago - dead trees everywhere, so no foliage blocking the horizon. Fire pits, a bathroom, and tables. Hammock lovers, you'll be in good shape. Plenty of wood around you can harvest. With Verizon I had a weak cell signal. You won't be streaming Netflix here but you can check email, etc. There's a cabin right down the way that also appears to be rentable so you might have neighbors there. Did hear what sounded like hunting in the distance so if you want to go exploring or have a pet, might want to wear something loud and give your pooch a bright bandana.

Yes, three sites is very small but the surrounding area looks to have dispersed camping going on, although it is in active pasture land so you might find yourself waking up to curious cows.

Wonderfully quiet. Easy to get in and out. Well spaced sites that are free and serve their purpose perfectly. What more can you ask for? Check my photos and videos and see for yourself! Highly recommended!
