Clean RV Park with full hook ups, laundry, showers, restrooms, pet area. Well maintained in an open field. Great stop over place for the area. Owners and camp hosts are on site. Always appreciated.

Ennis RV is a basic RV campground. It has wifi, laundry, showers, and full hook-ups for RVs. The wifi works very well, at least at our site near the office. We stayed in a tent site as it was the last site available. There’s a short trail in the back that has some nice views of the mountains (better I’m sure without wildfire smoke), cattle, and pasture. There’s also a clubhouse that apparently has a book exchange. No coin machine in the laundry room but there might be a chance to exchange in the office. There’s also a grill at each site- charcoal.

This is a newly developed campground, with two shower houses(rare in Montana) with flush toilets, as well as vault toilets. The sites are all spacious enough to accommodate two vehicles, both towing trailers or boats. There are three types of sites in the campground, Rustic (no water, sewer or electricity ), Electrical Only (no water or sewer) and Full Hook-up (water, sewer and electrical hook-ups). Campground has a store and gas is available. The day use area has a frisbee-golf coarse and beach volleyball. I was very impressed with the campground, leaps and bounds above the old campground.
Guide
Stayed here while attending a music camp in Bozeman. The owners were super nice. Easy drive into Bozeman and to nearby trails. Shade. Showers and pretty quiet. Quite a few long term stayers. Cheaper than any motel and nice to have your own camper while doing stuff in town.

We stayed here on our way home from Colorado. Pulled in it was 98 degrees so full hook up power was great. Swimming pool was an added benefit.. campground and shower house is very clean. We will stay here again.
Traveler
I used the online registration late in the day, so we were happy to get the last spot. Very easy to find in the dark at 10:30 pm because driveway is well lit with little lights, however the driveway is gravel hill going down and very bumpy. Spots for the RV are full hook up & very close but well divided with bushes and lattice for privacy. The view from the back of the RV was great. The gardens on the property really are beautiful. There were two single shower/bathroom in the bathhouse. We did not go over to the hot springs because it was closed.
Guide
First time staying in an RV park and using hookups, we typically dry camp....WOW this place is amazing!! The staff has been wonderful. Check in process was seamless. Sites are fairly wide so there is some privacy. Not all sites have tree coverage, something to keep in mind if you prefer shade.
GuideThis is your average family campground with RV park and grass closely packed tent campground (like literally right on top of one another split by single pine trees). Very much like a KOA (pool, shop, WiFi, showers, laundry etc.) but half the price ($26/night for basic tent site). No fire pits, there is a picnic table for each site.
GuideReally nice RV Park just on the edge of town. Overlooks a bluff with gorgeous view. Nice level gravel parking pads with a grass rectangle beside each spot. Fabulous restaurant at entrance to park called Continental Divide. Wonderful food. People very accommodating.
GuideGreat staff and RV park. Excellent bathrooms, showers, and laundry. I lucked into this RV park as someone left early. Seems to be always booked and hard to get into. The back in sites to the south of the office are large and back right up to the river. I would stay here again!
GuideCampground was ok, but typical of lots of RV parks, had narrow sites. Our site was a level pull thru. Staff were nice and organized. Camp cat was great! The location is near a railway and the trains came through all night blowing horns and disturbed our sleep.

Great rv park with hotsprings great staff
GuideA little pricey RV Park, but the free entrance for 2 to the hot springs and free breakfast is well worth the stay

We stayed in Osens RV park in Livingston, Montana in September 2021. This is a very nice quiet Park with pull-thru sites with FHU. The sites are level and nicely spaced with large grassy areas between sites. The staff here is very nice and helpful with anything you may need. Plenty of space to walk your pups and a large play area with cornhole and ladder golf. This is a great little park that we will visit again when we pass through Montana in the future. If you would like to see videos on this park and others, please check out our YouTube channel: Jeff & Steff’s Excellent Adventure.
RangerVery nice RV Park. All sites are gravel, the grass areas are really green and well taken care of. Great dog play area, large.
GuideSuch a great RV park. The restrooms, laundry, and all of the grounds are spotless. The owners are so helpful and friendly and the location and views are fantastic. we would definitely stay here again.
LegendThis is a wonderful RV Park, on the banks of the Yellowstone River, just north of Yellowstone NP. Great location with easy drive south to Yellowstone or dining in Livingston a few miles north. Clean modern shower & bath, plus laundry and store.
Traveler
The road is in nice condition, you'll need to travel up hill for about a mile. There's pull offs for campsites up to the top of the road. It's very quiet. There are cow patties in places you'll need to look out for. The fireplaces may be slightly destroyed from cows, but you're in the mountains, and you need to expect to do a little work! We found coral mushrooms about 50 feet from our campsite. I liked this place for it's secretsy and quietness. It's not far from the Galatin River for fishing purposes.
Directions: If you are North bound heading there on US highway 191, you'll see an rv park on your left, and then a blue phone sign on your right, and then the road immediately on the right after that RV park/sign is the road you'll need to take (there's no MOOSE CREEK FLAT CAMPGROUND sign to direct you).
LegendRight on the edge of the Yellowstone River, about 90 minutes north of Yellowstone NP. This is an RV Park, so no tents are allowed. The view of the river and the mountains is fantastic. And, it’s close to dining in Livingston if you want that. Laundry facilities and a larger than average store. Pet friendly. The sites are small. But, I would definitely go back.
ScoutWell really enjoyed our time at Ennis. The town is close to the Rv park, we could really easily bike to the grocery store and some local restaurants. The grounds, shower, and bathrooms are very nice and clean. Our first site was small pretty much right next to your neighbor. We moved to the premier sites though, and it was better.
Would stay again.
Will just say, no masks by staff at all 🤷🏼♂️
Traveler
Parking lot style. Reasonable space between sites. Reservations accepted. Full hookup sites & electric sites available. Safe feeling.

We camped here only because the Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park (where we have often camped on trips out west) was full on fourth of July weekend. The host told us about the Cardwell Campground further west.
So we were cranky after the extra drive and the late hour, hoping to find an open site on the holiday weekend. There is also a market and gift shop there. You have to call the host and he comes to escort you to a site.
I kept asking him what the rate was but he ignored me and spoke to my husband! Only after the credit card went through did I find out we were paying $65 for one night, even with a "veteran's discount." Under other circumstances we wouldn't have stayed there as we do not usually stay in such expensive RV parks. We were to learn that private campgrounds rates have gone up.
The park was well kept and we had electric plus sewer and water.
GuideGreat spot with level gravel parking, private bath and shower, full hookups. Friendly staff and a couple new friends. Good WiFi, T-Mobile 5g 2bars.
LegendThis is a Good Sam Campground.
Ok for an overnight stop 1 hour away from the North entrance of Yellowstone. There was no parking for the laundry/bath house & I forgot my code so I couldn’t get in to check it out.
Right beside I90 & the railroad so noisy all night. I sleep with the fan on & noise machine so didn’t bother me. Not much room on sites either, but again the location was the only reason we picked here. WiFi wasn’t working either with little cell reception. We were greeted by an alien at the picnic table so we had that going for us. 😁
RangerThe staff is wonderful. Nice level spots with lots of space and awesome river views. Full hookups, nice clean bathrooms, game room and little store that has everything.
GuideNice dog park across the street, sites are a little tight but its perfect for a couple night stay. Awesome that its only 35 miles to Big Sky and its a gorgeous drive. Our sire only had electric/water but i know there are some with full hookups. Picnic tables and fire rings and sites are gravel.
