Best Cabin Camping near Geyser, MT

Rental cabins near Geyser, Montana include rustic accommodations at Dry Wolf Cabin and the historic Judith Guard Station. Both locations offer propane heating and cooking facilities, with Dry Wolf equipped with a wood stove for winter visitors. Most cabins provide basic furniture and cooking equipment but lack electricity or running water. According to one visitor, the "Judith Guard cabin is an amazing forest service cabin... fully stocked, it has propane heat, a cook stove, and has beds to sleep eight people." Kings Hill Cabin and Monument Peak Lookout offer more remote experiences while remaining accessible by vehicle.

Options range from tiny log cabins to spacious family-sized layouts. The Great Falls KOA provides more modern cabin accommodations with electricity, showers, and toilet facilities, while Forest Service cabins like Monument Peak Lookout offer more primitive experiences. Reservations are typically required through Recreation.gov for Forest Service cabins, with costs around $60 per night. Most cabins prohibit pets. As one camper noted, "I stayed at Kings Hill Cabin (available on recreation.gov) it's right by the highway so it's accessible year-round and it's a perfect winter wonderland."

Most forest service cabins require visitors to bring their own water, bedding, lighting sources, and cooking supplies. A visitor to Monument Peak Lookout advised: "Bring 100% of your own bedding to not sleep on dead flies. But once it's cleaned out it's an amazing experience." Water access varies by location - Dry Wolf Cabin relies on a nearby creek for water, while Judith Guard Station has a hand pump available. Great Falls KOA cabins provide more amenities but typically still require personal bedding. There is no trash service at most forest service cabins, so campers must pack out all waste.

    Great Falls KOA

    Nicely appointed KOA

    General: Just about every option you could ask for (except for tents): 50-amp FHU pull-thru, 30/20-amp with w/e(back-in and pull-thru), FHU with patio, glamping tent, one and two-room cabins and cottages. 

    Site Quality: Different from many KOAs we have stayed in is that the camper pads are gravel, not paved, and there are quite a few trees that provide decent separation/privacy between the sites. The sites are bordered by railroad ties, and some are a tighter fit than others. A few of the sites at the end of the row before the glamping site appeared a little overgrown. As is usual for a KOA, our site was assigned upon check-in. The first site we were assigned didn’t work out for us since our electric cord could not reach the pedestal. Be aware that electric connections are shared between two sites so if you do not have an extension cord, you may have a problem (or need to be reassigned which was easily done for us). 

    Bath/Shower House: Accessed by code. All-in-one units with soap and paper towels. They were clean. 

    Activities/Amenities: Many and varied including a water playground (guests can join you here by paying a fee), petting zoo, train, dog park, yard games, bike rentals, propane fill, dump station, laundry, ice, ice cream, and free pancakes. There was even live entertainment! 

    We don’t typically stay in KOAs or RV parks (mainly because of cost and lack of privacy between sites) but they are good for us when we need showers, laundry, and a dump station. Although still more than we like to spend for camping, this one was a pleasant surprise with the number of trees on the property. The staff was exceedingly friendly!

    Camp Rotary

    Great for winter camping

    I camp here with Boy Scouts since the place is often reserved for youth organizations. In the winter it can be fun but to climb some hills. Each campground has cabins which hold about 11 people and tent spaces out side. The cabin do have semi-decent heating, but not AC. The bathrooms are really big and well developed (and super warm for the winter). There is also a big “roof building” with picknick tables to eat food.

    Great Falls KOA

    Surprising oasis

    In an area of mostly open fields, this KOA is filled with nice trees. It is a very large campground with RV sites, cabins, and tent sites. This is a very kid friendly campground, almost too much. Twice within an hour a train full of kids rolled by my site shouting. There is a large playground, volleyball court, basketball, and pools. The wifi was pretty good. The bathrooms could use some updating. They are nice single occupancy toilet/shower combos but some had damage on the tile, missing soap dispenser, non functional paper towel dispensers. Close to town but no city noise.

    Great Falls KOA

    City Camping Tucked Away

    You have to drive through part of Great Falls, Montana to get to this campground, but once you are in it, you forget all about the city. You get the full camping (in a campground) experience, but you can easily drive into the city to pick up whatever you forgot to pack.

    Our site was in what they call a tent village, which is a nice roundabout of tent sites. There are walls separating the sites for privacy, but the area is big enough for your vehicle and a large tent, or multiple smaller tents. Toward the middle of the roundabout is a covered area, including a table, counter, electrical outlets, and a large cabinet that can be locked with a padlock. The tent villages are very close to a nice restroom/showers that require a key code to get in.

    Benton RV Park & Campground

    Terrible

    Benton RV Park in Fort Benton Montana is run by a very nice lady. The restrooms and showers are very clean. Those are the only nice things I can say about this place. They have a full page of rules and regulations with threats of eviction if not obeyed. Fear not though none were enforced. This is what lead us to depart early. One of there rules is to respect the campsites of others and not short cut through them. The other rule that we took issue with is children under the age of 18 must be supervised by an adult at all times. Our campsite was overrun by a group of 6 kids. Playing and cutting through the entire time we stayed there. We had kids outside our camper door in our campsite the entire time we were there. We couldn't sit outside and enjoy our picnic table for the kids toys and their constant running back and forth. We found the photos on Benton RV Park website very deciving. They must have been very old. They depict green grass and well spaced RV's. The reality is dead brown grass and being so close to your neighbor it's more a parking lot located in an area where the houses across The street ends at an industrial like area. So if you have children you want to let run wild and you don't mind everyone cutting through your campsite this place is for you. Otherwise stay away.


Guide to Geyser

Camping cabins near Geyser, Montana include facilities accessible throughout different seasons. Located in central Montana, most rustic cabin options are found within Lewis and Clark National Forest or at private campgrounds along major routes. Elevations range from 3,900 to 5,700 feet, with late spring through early fall providing most favorable access conditions for remote locations.

What to do

Hiking trails access: Camp Rotary provides a convenient base camp for exploring nearby hills and forest paths. "I camp here with Boy Scouts since the place is often reserved for youth organizations. In the winter it can be fun but to climb some hills. Each campground has cabins which hold about 11 people and tent spaces outside," notes Sterling C.

Water recreation: Moose Creek Campground offers streamside sites for fishing and water play. "It's right on the creek and it was delightful. There was one other camper in there the evening I was there," reports David T., highlighting the peaceful creekside setting.

Rock collecting: Dry Wolf Cabin provides access to unique geological sites. According to K B., there are "Lots of activities nearby rock hounding/fossils, hikes, small waterfall, swimming in creek." The cabin's location near multiple natural features makes it ideal for varied outdoor pursuits.

What campers like

Year-round accessibility: Some forest service cabins remain accessible despite winter conditions. "Cabin stays cool in the summer and has wood stove for cold winters. Propane stove makes cooking easy. Creek nearby for water," explains a visitor to Dry Wolf Cabin.

Bathroom facilities: Great Falls KOA offers modern amenities compared to forest cabins. "The bathrooms are really big and well developed (and super warm for the winter). There is also a big 'roof building' with picknick tables to eat food," notes a Camp Rotary visitor.

Privacy options: The layout at certain campgrounds creates natural separation between sites. "There was no sign for this campsite on the highway. I just pulled off the highway where it said access to National Forest, and it appeared fairly close to the highway. There were only half a dozen sites or so," mentions David T. about Moose Creek Campground.

What you should know

Facility maintenance varies: Cabin interiors require inspection upon arrival. A visitor to Monument Peak Lookout advises, "Reserve this lookout on Recreation.gov for an amazing trip. The only downside is that this place is FULLLLL of dead flies when you get there. Mentally prepare yourself."

Water sourcing: Plan for water collection or bring your own supply. A Dry Wolf Cabin camper notes, "Creek nearby for water (or campground a few miles up road has well and spring with potable water)," highlighting the importance of water planning.

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly amenities: Benton RV Park & Campground offers facilities suitable for children. "Clean and well maintained. It's probably the bright spot in the entire town," notes Robert R., though families should consider summer temperatures that can reach 94°F with strong winds.
