Best RV Parks & Resorts near Frenchtown, MT

Several RV parks sit within easy reach of Frenchtown, Montana, offering full hookup sites for motorhome travelers. Jim & Mary's RV Park, located on Highway 93 North in nearby Missoula, provides year-round RV camping with spacious sites featuring 30/50 amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections. The park is known for its level sites with grassy areas between spaces. Granite Peak RV Resort, also in Missoula, operates seasonally from May through mid-October with 110 sites that accommodate large rigs, though some travelers note the gravel sites can be uneven. "I'm guessing this was built before bigger RVs were commonplace? We parked all the way back in the site, our rear was literally up to the road, and we still had to do some maneuvering to park the truck," reported one RVer about Granite Peak's site dimensions. River Edge Resort in Alberton offers year-round big-rig friendly sites with full hookups including both 30 and 50 amp service.

For RV campers planning trips to the Frenchtown area, most parks are pet-friendly and require reservations, especially during summer months. Cell service varies by location, with Granite Peak visitors reporting strong Verizon coverage (4 bars) but sometimes weak park WiFi. Dump stations are available at several facilities, including Turah RV Park and Store in Clinton, which maintains 26 sites open year-round with a sanitary dump station on premises. Lolo Hot Springs RV Park, located about 30 miles southwest of Frenchtown, offers big-rig friendly sites with 50 amp electrical hookups, though it lacks sewer connections at individual sites. Many parks operate on cashless systems, accepting only credit or debit cards for laundry facilities and camp stores. During peak season (June-August), advance reservations are strongly recommended as parks throughout the region fill quickly with summer travelers.

    Informal Dispersed Campsite at Fish Creek Properties Montana State Park

    Big Spot adjacent to the road, Good if in a pinch

    Sign says camping permitted to 14 days in a 30 day period. Adjacent to dirt road with a few trees in between. Not the most private but a good option if you need a place for the night if the nearby campsite is full. No amenities. T-mobile cell service is good here.

    River access just at the entry of the turn in. Could easily pull a big rig in but may have a hard time turning it around as there is not a pull through. There is a concrete slab that is level and about 12'x25' in size  which could be good for a trailer or van without having to do much for leveling. Many vehicles/tents could fit here in the dirt area but would likely be comfortable for a single group rather than multiple camp groups.

    Polson Motorcoach and RV Resort

    The Nicest KOA We’ve seen

    First, as we were driving up to the site, I saw these large Class A motorhomes with gazebos and lush green lawns and thought “I wish I knew about this RV park before booking,” only to find out it was the KOA! The sites are leveled, gravel pads on a hill, with a wooden deck, railings, 2 waste water hookups, and super clean facilities. The pool and hot tub were nice and clean. The staff, including the young man who escorted us to our site on check-in, were hospitable. Finally, there is a nice view of Flathead Lake. This is a destination KOA and only an hour from Glacier National Park.

    Granite Peak RV Resort

    Surrounded by mountains

    If the smoke from summer wildfires were not so thick, you could see the beautiful long range, multi tiered mountains. The park is well maintained. I love the fact that they have a puttputt on the grounds. Very family friendly. The only reason for the 4 stars is that the sited are not level. All, but the premium sites (concrete pads) have a slope. Jack's were fully extended and some wheels off the ground. Pulling up on blocks was no problem. Not a ton of shade at sited. I had 5 bars of 5G AT&T. Wifi repeaters were throughout the park. Would definitely recommend.

    Lolo Hot Springs Campground

    Lo Lo Hot Springs is Hot!

    Very nice campground across Hwy. 12 in Montana. Campground is ill defined so it feels more like camping out in the woods. Fire pits with picnic tables. 30 amp electric with water. Dump station on site. $38.50 per night or $25.50 with senior discount. Cabins are available and there is numerous tent sites. Pretty nice campground. Across the highway is Lo Lo Hot Springs. Very rustic with a $8.00 entry fee. Inside group tub and outside pool. There is a lodge and bar also on site. We spent 5 days in our 5th wheel at LoLo.

    Granite Peak RV Resort

    Fine For a Stop-off Night

    Definitely not a spot that caters to our normal priorities as it's more of a family hangout or long term place, as expected being an RV park. But it worked well as a stop-off spot for laundry, showers, electric recharge, and water fill before continuing on our way the next morning. We were worried it'd be loud being so close to the freeway, but surprisingly couldn't hear it at all.

    Facilities: Laundry, showers that feel like home more than any other we've been to, mini-golf, playground, convenience store

    Cell Service: As expected plenty of service being so close to Missoula

    Starlink: All sites are open to the sky

    Solar: All sites are open to the sky

    Placid Lake State Park Campground

    Beautiful Quiet Campground

    This was a wonderful stopover on a road trip. Beautiful lake, rich forest area. Camping spots were nicely spread out, all paved. Ours, number 27 was a pull through. Easy access, a clean spacious vault toilet very close by. Restrooms with showers and flush toilets were a short distance away. THERE ARE NO SEWER HOOKUPS. However at Seeley Lake, about four miles away there is a dump station.

    Excellent cell service for Verizon and T-Mobile.

    Reserve ahead to be sure, 18$ plus 10$ internet fee. Or walk up first come first served for $18. And with electric hookups!

    Great campground.

    Nugget RV Resort

    We Gave Nugget a Try

    We decided to stay here because we’ve seen this campground(CG) featured the last five year’s we’ve been on the road by CG review websites, travel forums, and big-name RV bloggers. So we thought we’d give Nugget a try. We followed our RV GPS to the CG that is near I-90, but far enough away that you don’t hear highway noise. There was another camper checking in when we arrived, but check-in was fairly quick and thorough. There was a sign about being a Good Sam Member and we had to ask to get the discount as that option was not available for the online reservation. We then had a very friendly escort to pull through site 63 with FHUs, which is supposedly a premium site. This gravel site has a little grass yard with a picnic table. The site is across from a community fire pit and couple of their little trail heads. When we were there in July, there was a fire ban so not having a site fire pit was no big deal. The utilities are nicely placed in the middle of the pad. Water pressure is good at about 50 psi. We got 2 to 3 bars on Verizon. As there are a lot of mature pine trees in this CG, satellite is iffy. Our campsite was at the north end of the CG facing the woods, so we used our Verizon MiFi versus Starlink. We probably could have gotten the Starlink to work if we put the antenna on our roof, but as we were only here for three nights, we didn’t try. There’s a nice trail system around the CG to walk with your kids and it is dog friendly. They offer a lot of amenities of which laundry was one that we did use. There’s a nice 9-hole golf course just down the road. They used to let veterans golf for free on Wednesdays, but now charges vets only$5. The CG also had a food truck one evening that was convenient. We wanted to see what all the hype was about and we got the chance. This CG has a lot to offer families or campers who desire a lot of comforts. Overall, its a nice and well run CG, but we are not compelled to repeat with all the other options in the area.

    Whitefish-Kalispell North KOA

    Family friendly, not really “camping”

    If you’re looking for family friendly, this is your spot. Lots of kids activities. Free breakfast. Washrooms, showers and laundry facility available. Scenically, it’s not very pretty. Sites are very close together with little privacy. Our spot was so small we couldn’t fit our tent, picnic table and fire pit in it. We had to park somewhere else, and move the picnic table our. If you prefer exploring nature and quiet, this isn’t the park for you.

    Chief Looking Glass Campground

    Solid Place To Stay

    I rolled in mid-afternoon and was able to find a great spot to camp for a couple of days.  The sites were well dispersed and clean with picnic tables and fire pits available.

    AT&T phone service was available and at good speeds.  I chose to stay the extra day and was able to work remotely from the campground with my hotspot.

    $18/night for out of state travelers with no hookups was a bit steep.

    Good site and will be back!


Guide to Frenchtown

Dispersed camping options surrounding Frenchtown, Montana provide alternatives to established RV campgrounds. Located in the western Missoula Valley at approximately 3,050 feet elevation, Frenchtown sees summer temperatures averaging 75-85°F during camping season, with cooler nights dropping to the 40s even in July. Winter camping remains available at select year-round facilities, though temperatures frequently drop below freezing from November through March.

What to do

Creek access for fishing and swimming: Lolo Hot Springs RV Park & Campground offers excellent water recreation opportunities along the creek running through the property. "We ended up booking here on the 4th and 5th of July and had a great time camping along the river, going to the hot springs across the street and walking the area. This is a beautiful resort and a little more on the campy side which we liked," reported one visitor to Lolo Hot Springs RV Park & Campground.

Hot springs relaxation: Take advantage of mineral pools across from the campground. "The hot springs across the highway are $12 a person and we took a hot soak in the 106 degree enclosed mineral bath/pool area and rotated to the 86 degree pool outside. Kids and families all seemed to stay in the pool area while adults in the mineral bath area," notes a camper. The facilities maintain different temperature zones for varied comfort levels.

Outdoor recreation: Nugget RV Resort provides numerous on-site activities beyond typical campground offerings. "Great place to stay if your in the St. Regis area. You don't have to leave the campground if you don't want to with tons of great activities. The hiking trails on site were fun and also the FS trails nearby are great as well," writes one visitor. The resort includes volleyball courts, frisbee golf course, and hiking trails directly accessible from camp.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Campers consistently mention well-maintained bathrooms and showers at several Frenchtown area campgrounds. "Very clean facilities, friendly owners, and a nice fire pit," notes a visitor to Diamond S RV Park. The park, open March through November, maintains 37 sites with regularly serviced facilities.

Riverfront access: Sites along waterways receive high praise from visitors seeking water proximity. "Big thick beautiful trees provide shade in the summer. And amazing sunsets," writes a camper about River Edge Resort. Another notes: "Campground was basic but perfect for an overnight stay. Close to interstate but noise not too bad. Free laundry was a bonus."

Landscaping and natural setting: Many parks near Frenchtown feature mature trees and maintained grounds. "Quiet, tree-lined location. Friendly people. Bathroom and laundry rooms clean and functional," reports a visitor to Turah RV Park. The natural surroundings provide both aesthetic appeal and practical shade during summer months when temperatures regularly exceed 80°F.

What you should know

Train noise considerations: Several campgrounds experience railroad noise due to their proximity to active train routes. "The only downside (if I had to find one) was the train close by that was very squeaky as it went by. But I never heard it during the night," reports one camper at Jim & Mary's RV Park. Another camper adds: "The train noise is not as bad as previous posts and actually looks pretty cool chugging along the mountain side."

Seasonal operations: Many campgrounds in the region close during winter months. Granite Peak RV Resort operates from May 1 through October 15, while Eagle Nest RV Resort maintains the same seasonal schedule. For winter camping, options include Jim & Mary's RV Park and Turah RV Park, both operating year-round with limited amenities during colder months.

Varying site dimensions: RV sites differ significantly in size and layout across parks. "Private campground. Level sites, stayed in #6 right by office. Sites fairly close together. Nice pet walk area. Showers clean. Full hookups," notes a Diamond S RV Park visitor, indicating the compact nature of some parks.

Tips for camping with families

Amenity access for children: Granite Peak RV Resort offers family-friendly facilities including a pool and playground. "Nice amenities (mini golf, horse shoes, pool, dog park), close enough to town. Grass at our site," reports one camper. The resort provides structured activities for children during peak summer months.

Safety considerations: Campgrounds closer to highways require additional supervision for young children. "Amazing views and surprisingly quiet for being right off the highway. The staff were friendly at check-in and even had a special treat for my pups to enjoy and complementary doggy bags," notes a visitor to River Edge Resort, highlighting the proximity to roadways despite the quieter-than-expected environment.

Wildlife awareness: Families should maintain proper food storage even at developed campgrounds. "On river. Bears?? Have to cross street for hot springs facility," mentions one camper at Lolo Hot Springs, indicating potential wildlife encounters require proper precautions with food storage and waste disposal.

Tips from RVers

Electrical capacity: Several rv campgrounds near Frenchtown, Montana offer varied hookup options for different RV needs. "Best spot with 50 amps I could find! We pulled up and was surprised by how serene the setting was, beautiful creek, awesome big rocks and of course the hot springs across the street," reports a camper at Lolo Hot Springs RV Park & Campground.

Site leveling requirements: RVers report varying experiences with site grading. "Level sites with grassy areas between spaces," describes one Turah RV Park visitor, while others note challenges at different campgrounds requiring leveling blocks. "Clean and Green. We did not have reservations so got a last spot by dumpsters, water and power, no sewer. Dumping at their station in am, she came zooming down to ask if we needed help."

Reservation timing: Summer season from June through August requires advance planning for RV travelers. "Sites are a litttle close together, but to be expected at a resort style place. There was an access spot to the creek/river and firewood was sold by the armload ($12)," notes a Lolo Hot Springs camper, highlighting the need to book early for prime creek-side locations.
