    Foothills Campground

    Great for fifth wheels/travel trailers

    We pulled into this small town at 7pm needing a place to stop for the night and they helped us right away. They had a pull through spot with full hook up available for $34 for the night. We have a 38 ft fifth wheel and there is plenty of space. Their cabins look a little run down, but if you need a cheap, quiet, close to the interstate place to stay with your camper, this is a nice stop. Perfect cell service as well.

    Grandview Campground

    All that you need!

    Quick one night stay here. The water pressure is MEH, the full hookups are nice, showers and bathrooms are decent but bring your shower sandals! Everyone is packed in tight, I’d have trouble staying here longer than a couple nights, also it’s pretty pricey!! Great location to Little Bighorn National Monument and Native / Custer history. They’ve got 9 pull through sites so big rig friendly!

    7th Ranch RV Park

    What a Find!

    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.

    Montana Conservation License Required!

    A Montana State Parks Conservation Permit is now required to camp here. Don't know if they enforce that requirement. Here's the link. Your permit is good all year.

    https://ols.fwp.mt.gov/landing_input

    This is a great spot. I was here on a week night very quiet. Only one other couple. Lots of birds. You can see where the beavers have been at work felling trees on they way in. Wild turkeys were pretty vocal last evening.

    Easy to imagine Capt. William Clark floating past in 1806 in his lashed together canoes on his way to the Missouri to rejoin Capt. Merriweather Lewis.

    It is actually a fishing access point with boat ramp. A little slow going in on the dirt road. Could be slick if rainy. There are 4 campsites with fire rings and a pit toilet at the far end.

    Length limit on vehicles is 20 feet. They clarify 20 ft tow vehicle and 20 ft trailer. Don't know how strict they are on this. It would be tough to get anything big in here anyway. You can stay here up to 7 days.

    Beautiful stop over

    Nice small park close to i-90 interstate with lengthy pull through sites and full hookups. Clean updated bathrooms and beautiful scenery all around. Very close to Custer State Park. About half the sites have a tree wi th shade available. Our site does not have shade. Pads are all gravel and leveling maybe needed.

    Montana FAS campground

    This was down a gravel road situated by the I94 bridge over the Bighorn River. We took what looked to be the main site with picnic table and fire ring. There may have been more sites especially under the bridge. There was a small but clean vault toilet but no garbage. Thankfully, the traffic on I-94 is light so the noise was negligible. We had a view of the river nestled against the ubiquitous cottonwoods. The site is free. We were there in late September 2020 in a pop up truck camper.

    Hardin KOA

    Ok for an overnight, wouldn't stay long term

    We stayed here as an overnight stop during our summer trip.

    There is not much in Hardin at all, but the campground provide plenty of space with the sites. We had 50amp for our trailer and water and sewer hookups.

    I don't think the staff at the front desk were very enthusiastic about their jobs...they seemed like they weren't too happy to have to deal with another camper showing up for the night.

    There were quite a few other rigs there when we stayed, but no one that looked like they were staying for long term.

Very clean and well taken care of campsite close to the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Park," writes David N.

What you should know

Road conditions: Several campgrounds require driving on unpaved roads. "The last mile or so is a dirt road that is very rough, so go slow!" advises Dawn R. about accessing 7th Ranch RV Park.

Train noise: Be aware of potential noise disruptions at certain locations. "Nice but not quiet. I can't wear ear plugs and the 'you hear them so often that you get used to them' excuse doesn't work," reports Semi H. about train noise at 7th Ranch RV Park.
