RangerGood, level, graveled sites. Full hookup pull-thrus that have a decent amount of space between sites. Bathrooms and showers very clean. Friendly staff. We were here in mid-October so not many traveling campers, but a few long-term
TravelerOnly spent one night, but level sites, full hook ups, showers and laundry clean. An area to play games and we didn’t have our dogs this time but the dog zone looked good and clean.
GuideHad a van battery issue so needed to plug in for the cold night. Is as advertised, not for typical bookdockers. Owner is nice and accommodating. Maybe 12 sites with some long term renters - it appeared. All hook ups available up to 50amp. Not quite close enough to down town to walk (in winter). Philipsburg is an awesome small Montana town that’s worth a stop.
GuideThis is a typical KOA. First the good: Friendly helpful staff until their gone at closing time. Little mini store with a few essentials. Clean bathrooms and showers and clean laundry room with several washers/dryers.$2.00 per load to wash. Can't remember how much to dry. Very cool pinball machine that costs 25 cents per game. Fun fun fun! Another bathroom/shower in middle of park but I never looked inside that one. 65 sites that most have full hook-up and pull-through. A few cool tent sites with gas BBQs. Some cool looking cabins but I never looked inside one. I'm here on 8/24/2024 and RV park is sold out except 3 pull-through sites. All tent sites were full. I don't know about the cabins. Cool playground for kids and large mostly gravel dog run. Edit added: AT&T has 5G and three bars. KOA has wifi but slow slow slow I got 3MPS so instead of KOA wifi I used my iPhone Personal Hotspot that worked great. THE BAD(and reason for only 3 stars): All gravel roads and sites throughout the park. Very close together. Some sites have a very narrow strip of grass. Some of the picknick tables need to be re-painted. Unfortunately while eating breakfast you could be 2 feet away from the next RV dumping their sewer. P.U. The luxury sites don't have that problem. They are at the end of each row and only have a neighbor on the drivers side. I think well worth the extra 17 bucks. Not ADA friendly. Very hard for someone with a walker to get around because of gravel roads/sites. Someone with a wheel chair near impossible. Has a nice handicap shower in main office building. Only problem is that once I take my walker in with me it's very tight and no room to move around. Not EV car friendly. There is a$250 fine and eviction if you plug in your car. The person at the front desk told me the$250 fine and eviction is because EVs overload the outdated system and cause a fire. This KOA is an older one and was wired before EVs. Each individual site has its own 30 amp and 50 amp circuit breaker. Some trees but few and far between. No pool or hot tub. Final thoughts: Make reservations well in advance if you can. This KOA is the best game in town and is mostly sold out in summer. I think(sorry I don't know for sure) there is only one other RV park in town and from what I can tell, it is a much older one. I would proceed with caution before I booked it. Good traveling. See you on the road.

This is not a place he would stay long term it’s just merely a pitstop. They do have a little riverfront great that runs by it but otherwise it’s just a parking lot.
Legend
This place is not a good choice. It is dirty and not maintained except for the bathhouse which is decent. This property caters mostly to long-term residents in older RVs and mobile homes. It is not a place for Dyrt campers wanting to get away from it all. I was the only short-term traveler, and I was charged$35 for a 20 amp electric only site. That was too much. I have been on the road full time for eight months and this is the least attractive campground yet. I don’t like to criticize other reviews, but the other rating of 4 stars is a joke. It is more like a 1. I gave it 2 because the people were very friendly and the bathhouse was a B-. There are huge pot holes in the entrance which are not RV friendly. There is no garbage dumpster and no sanitary dump. I had to drive a gas station in town to do this.
Guide
Nice location for an overnight rest spot. We had a tent site, close to the road, but traffic wasn’t bad after dark. Site was grassy. No fires allowed for obvious reasons. We were the only tent guests. Most people looked like they were long term RV’rs. IMMACULATE bathrooms and showers with hot water and pressure ! There’s a hot springs nearby, a water slide, golf course and resort hotel/casino. Easy access to I-15. Only drawback I could see was that there was dog poop everywhere. Bags were provided, but apparently people don’t use them :(
Guide
Well run, clean campground with lots of pull through sites with full hook ups. Efficiently run. Check in was quick and easy with a golf cart escort to my site. The layout is pretty condensed so I was quite close to my neighbor. Campground was quiet, some road noise outside. An excellent option to break up a drive on I-90.
Legend
Deer lodge has some great museums and Anne tours. The old prison and associated mushrooms are a must stop. Check out the ghost town! Indian Creek campground is right off I-90. Is safe, clean and well taken care of. Full hookups and super easy access with a town full of fun! Chinese food across the street was yummy too
TravelerNicely laid out RV park. Bathrooms very clean. Nice laundry. Right next to Fairmont Hot Springs.
TravelerNice RV park. Very well managed. Very clean restrooms and showers. Small store, gas pump. Near Fairmont Hit Springs Resort. Very quiet.
GuideThis is a family owned RV park in Garrison, MT. Helpful hosts. Kid friendly. Gameroom. Laundry. If you want to relax, this is a great stop. Spacious spots, some mountain views. A bit of road traffic noise, but still quiet. A Chapel on the grounds and Sunday services offered. Would recommend.
Traveler
I was traveling on my own coming home from a holiday weekend. I needed to find a safe comfortable place to sleep for the night. I arrived at 10:30pm and the two gentlemen that greeted me at this RV park could not have been more helpful or kind.
TravelerOur stay at Bernie and Sharon’s Riverfront RV Park was absolutely fantastic! The location is stunning – nestled right by the river, offering breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere. It’s the perfect spot to relax and reconnect with nature.
The hospitality was truly exceptional. Bernie and Sharon went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. We enjoyed a cozy campfire thanks to their generosity in providing a fire ring and even a couple of logs to get us started. Their thoughtfulness made the experience even more memorable!
We also camped in our Tesla, and the park was fully equipped for EV travelers with a 14-50 amp outlet, making it super convenient to charge our vehicle while we enjoyed the great outdoors.
The amenities were spotless, and the grounds were beautifully maintained. Whether you’re looking to fish, explore the surroundings, or simply unwind by the water, this RV park has everything you need for a perfect getaway.
Thank you, Bernie and Sharon, for an amazing experience! We’ll definitely be back for another unforgettable stay.
ScoutThe rudest people to deal with, especially an employee named Dan. Do not stay here and do not expect any kind of customer service from this place. Horrible attitude and horrendous manners.
Will never stay here in the future nor recommend this place to anyone!
Not the only RV Park in the area; the owner should be happy to have business and money coming in!! Rude to the max!!
Traveler
Enjoyed our stay over a weekend! Nice 1 mile hiking trail through the state park. Was able to watch a group of cow/calf elk on Beavertail Hill from our camping spot. A few miles up Rock Creek Rd is a Big Horn Sheep viewing area. Water available at the campground but no dump station, however just to the east is Bearmouth RV Park where you can dump for $15.
ScoutEnjoyed our stay as a stopover on way south to Big Sky. Large grounds, well maintained with green grass for the kid to run in. Walk to the river is about 3-5 min. Spaces were large. People we met there loved it so much that they’ve come back year and year again. Best of all is the story of the host… offers a safe and fun place, rescued animals, keeps camping costs affordable bc had 9 kids and couldn’t afford to stay at RV parks, etc.

I was staying in Bozeman at the fairgrounds and was tired of being able to"reach out and touch someone", as is my neighbors, so on a whim decided to leave early and give Lost Moose Meadows a try(I'm always skeptical of private RV parks as my preference is more along the lines of state parks/COE campgrounds), and probably the best decision I've made on this trip thus far(3 months in).
This is a relatively new RV park(opened 6 weeks ago) situated in a valley near a small town(Lincoln, MT) owned/managed by a husband/wife team (Matt& Nichole) who put their heart and soul into building this park (Also, super cool folks, very personable). They built the park from the ground up themselves and it shows they were RVers themselves and built as they would want to enjoy. Each site is like a little oasis with plenty of room to stretch (B3 feels like a 1/2 acre lot, and likely not too far off from it), plenty long enough for even the longest of rigs (some of the pull throughs are over 100 feet long). There isn't a ton of shade however to be expected as the park is new and there will be shade as trees mature.
Originally I was going to stay here a few nights before continuing west however decided to stay 2 and a half weeks. It's a bit off I-90 however if you're simply looking for a place to stretch out, this is definitely it and worth the trek.
RangerOne of our favorite Parks! So much history here and well maintained. Lots of trees and shade!
Sharon and her Camp Hosts/ Maintenance staff do a wonderful job keeping this place clean and trimmed.
Terry and Mike meet you at your arrival and usher you to your site. We have a 40’ w/tow and opted for a pull thru for 1 night.
Sharon stops by and takes your payment, and checks on if you need anything! Great to have met the matriarch of the Park!
They offer Good Sam and Military rates as well!
Guide
This is a small, no frills site just outside of Helena, MT. No hookups for RVs; Vault toilets, which were very clean. Pack in/Pack out as there are no trash receptacles. Moderate road noise until dark. Beautiful views and dark skies at night for stargazing
Guide
It's only $10 to camp here with a tent. $25 for an electric site with an RV.
The bad: this is a city park in town. That means you'll have a little bit of light pollution if you want to see the stars (it's not too bad though) and you're next to the road.
The good: once evening approaches, it's pretty quiet through the night in the morning. This place feels like an intermediate between an RV park and a Forest service campground. The sites are spacious, though they are next to each other. But the day I was here, there weren't very many campers so it felt more spread out. You may also get some courageous deer walking through your campsite.
The facilities are pretty good for a city park. Bathrooms have running water and even a shower. They are spigots to fill up with drinking water. And there's a small playground which my kids think is underwhelming.
Be aware that the fire rings at some of the sites good stand some TLC, as could some of the picnic tables which are wooden and starting to splinter.
That said, at $10, it's hard to beat the price, especially since down the road there is a more primitive campground that cost $5 more.
Scout
Good amenities for a full time RVer, probably a little lean for someone looking for a resort feel. $35 a day for electric, $36 for water, $37 for full hookups.
Laundry and showers available, but I did not use. Manager is on site, and while it’s not a looker, it’s kept nice. Nice view to the west for sunsets, very easy access to I-10. A good stopover if you need a day’s rest with hookups, it was never full while I was there.
Guide
Camp sites are fairly spread out, there’s room for RVs if that’s your style. Boat launch available for easy access and a large enough parking lot to park your trailer. There’s slight phone service in some spots. Lots of rock formations in the area to climb and explore. There’s a few trail heads to get to the peaks and get an amazing view of the lake and surrounding valley.
ScoutEasy access from interstate and Rv friendly fuel stations. Located on a hill with well maintained gravel roads and pull throughs 30/50 Amp and full hookups. Wifi fast but weak, no laundry (yet), no cable and the OTA TV is crappie. Open skies for satellite TV, 2 miles from downtown. We didn't use the bathrooms or showers but they are available. Lots of spaces designated for tent campers.
Scout
We showed up LATE and left early because we were just passing through. There didn’t seem to be designated camping spots but it wasn’t bad at all......... except for the train that came through every few hours!
$10.00 for tents $25 for full hookups.
Legend
Nice little campground outside of Philipsburg next to the highway and a creek. There are only 10 sites on the lollipop loop, 6 along the “stick”, all on the creek side, and 4 on the loop. There are a couple extra vehicle parking areas too. Creek side sites are better, but sites 7 and 8 seem to be the largest. I was pleasantly surprised there was a host for only 10 free first come sites. All the basics are here- picnic tables and fire pits and one clean vault toilet. I did not see any hook ups of any kind for RVs. Pretty quiet at night but traffic starts around 6:30 in the morning, so you will have some daytime noise. I saw a deer walking through the campground in the late evening as well.
The only downside was my very noisy neighbors, but that is more about the people and less about the campground.
