    Vigilante Campground at Bannack State Park houses one of Montana's most unique glamping experiences, featuring a traditional tipi accommodation just steps from Grasshopper Creek and a preserved ghost town. Visitors can immerse themselves in Western history while enjoying modern comforts in this distinctive accommodation that combines heritage with amenities. The tipi site costs $30 for Montana residents and $42 for non-residents, providing a cultural camping experience with access to vault toilets and water. Nearby glamping options include Ruby Valley Campground and RV Park with cabin accommodations that feature electricity and comfortable beds. The area's glamping sites are strategically positioned near scenic waterways and historic attractions, making them ideal basecamps for exploring southwestern Montana. One visitor noted, "You can stay in a teepee. Excellent campsite right next to a ghost town."

    Bannack State Park's glamping experience connects visitors directly to Montana's territorial history, with the tipi site situated within walking distance of the perfectly preserved 1860s mining town. Guests can explore dozens of historic buildings during the day before returning to their comfortable accommodation. Ruby Valley Campground offers a more conventional glamping experience with clean facilities and convenient amenities including showers and electricity. Both locations provide access to stunning mountain scenery and outdoor recreation opportunities, including fishing in Grasshopper Creek where trout can be caught on the fly. The best glamping experience comes during special events when Bannack hosts historical reenactments with volunteers in period clothing, creating an immersive Western experience. According to a camper, "Nestled next to an old ghost town with a creek flowing around it. Super quiet. Heavily shaded. Beautiful small camp."

      Butte KOA Journey

      A No-Frills, Budget Stopover (Plus a Must-See Mining Tour!)

      Reviewed by: The Crew at Hitched4fun.com

      If you are looking for an overnight stop while rolling through southwestern Montana on Interstate 15 or Interstate 90, the Butte KOA Journey serves its purpose as a functional travel hub. It is far from a luxury resort destination, but if you need a safe, inexpensive, and easily accessible place to park your rig for the night, it gets the job done.

      Campground Grounds & Amenities

      It is best to set expectations before pulling in—this is a very basic, older KOA:

      • The Grounds: The roads and driveways are dirt and gravel, which can get muddy after a rain. There is virtually no grass throughout the sites, so expect some dust or dirt around your rig.
      • Facilities & Security: While there is nothing fancy about the park, it felt completely safe and quiet during our overnight stay.  Staff members were very welcoming and friendly.
      • The Value: The nightly rate was very reasonable, which makes up for the lack of upscale amenities. If you just need hookups, level ground, and a spot to catch some sleep without paying premium resort fees, the price matches what you get.

      Location & Highway Access

      • Easy In-and-Out: The standout practical benefit of this park is the convenience. It offers quick, hassle-free on-and-off access from the nearby interstate junction, which makes pulling in after a long driving day and departing the next morning straightforward.
      • The Town Setting: Butte definitely shows signs of an old mining town that has struggled economically since its historic copper mining heydays, but it makes up for that with raw character and rugged Western history.

      Must-See Local Stop: The Berkeley Pit Tour

      If you stay here, do not leave town without visiting the Berkeley Pit.

      • The Experience: It is an overwhelmingly massive open-pit copper mine that operated for decades and is now filled with heavily mineralized water. Known historically as part of"The Richest Hill on Earth," it offers a fascinating window into America’s industrial past.
      • The Logistics: The viewing stand and tour setup—conveniently run right by the local chamber of commerce/visitors center—is inexpensive and only requires about 30 minutes of your time.
      • Active Mining Nearby: While the Berkeley Pit is retired, active open-pit mining is still happening right next door (projected to continue through 2050!). If you have any interest in mining, geology, or gold and mineral prospecting, this quick detour is well worth your time.

      The Hitched4fun Verdict

      The Butte KOA Journey won't win awards for landscaping, but its budget-friendly rate, safe atmosphere, and prime interstate convenience make it a viable 3-star overnight rest stop. Pair it with a half-hour visit to the Berkeley Pit to get an authentic taste of Montana's copper history before hitting the highway again.

      Needs more trees

      We are here in October and we are getting snow I love it. Only 3 other campers here. .the dogs just run. Getting about 6 inches of snow. Going to hike some trails tomorrow. We have AT&T and there is cell service but we also have Starlink. No water this time of year and there is only 1 pit toilet...across the campground. It would not be a place I would stay in summer....no trees I'm not a fan of seeing all the campers. Looks like pretty decent gravel sites. We do have electric. The rangers are very nice.

      2 Bar Lazy H RV Campground

      Do not stay here

      We camped here as a last resort driving through on 90. There were thunderstorms and we didn’t want to risk muddy conditions of dispersed camping at 11pm. We drove up, and everything was closed. There were payment envelopes, but no fees posted. We took an envelope, but left in the car, intending to pay in the morning. There was a large sign posted on the hut next to the office stating “Don’t bother me until after 10:00am.” The campground is a gravel lot next to the freeway, with high weeds and broken down cars/RV around the perimeter. There is one shower/bathroom house, with a key code. One dumpster. One spigot for water. The spaces have full hookups, but are so close together it looks like a derelict parking lot with a view of the freeway. We slept there, and the next morning at 8:30, the owner drove up in his 4 wheeler, yelling and cursing at us. Our leashed dogs barked at him, as he was verbally attacking us, and he threatened to hit them with his 4 wheeler. Apparently, someone had dropped $10 for payment in an envelope last night and he thought it was us. He continued screaming in my husband’s face along with our three and eight year old sons next to him, stating how little money $10 would buy. I came out and told him that wasn’t our payment, our envelope is in the car, and we couldn’t pay last night as there were no prices listed. The then told us to settle up as we leave, still didn’t give us the code to the bathroom, and then said he was going to have to find the “f$$cking sonan1tch” who gave him only $10. And drove away. No apologies, no nothing. This place is a sh1t hole with a mean tempered owner who nearly gets into violent altercations as a first course of action. Oh, and a site with electricity is $60.

      Delmoe Lake

      Campground Closed

      Was not able to camp at the campground as it is under construction but 1 mile on road to campground was a dispersed area with tables and fire rings.

      Lots of ATV traffic but a fairly nice place to camp for the night for free.

      Fairmont RV Resort

      Owner is a total jerk

      If you stay at this RV park, be well aware that if you go over by 1 mph his speed limit or you’re trying to charge your Tesla or you do something on the grass that he doesn’t like he’s gonna boot you out like he did to us today. Good thing we had rented a room here at the RV park and this has happened many times so they let us stay here.   Would never recommend to stay here. Worst guy to deal with I’ve ever dealt with in 50 years.

      Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park — Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park

      Great for Families

      We had a great stay in the last weekend of May. Our site had electric hook-ups, and walking distance to the really nice playground.

      Campground has potable water filling and dump station. NOTE $5 fee to dump; cash or check!

      Campground also had a group site area and day use pavilion, shower house and vault toilets. Only a 5 min drive up to the caves. Campground is essentially flat with trees scattered throughout; could find some shade near your site, but direct line of sight to pretty much all the other RVs at the campground.

    Guide to Glen

    Glamping options near Glen, Montana concentrate within a 45-minute drive of the town. The region sits at elevations between 5,000-6,000 feet with dramatic temperature shifts between day and night even in summer months. Most glamping sites operate seasonally from late May through September due to heavy winter snowfall that makes access difficult during colder months.

    What to do

    Ghost town exploration: Visit the historic buildings at Bannack State Park's Vigilante Campground. "This town holds quite a lot of history. It's open to exploration by the public. Every building is a slowly fading time capsule of a long forgotten time. I enjoyed trekking up and down the single street - investigating at my leisure," reports Lindsey A.

    Fishing: Cast a line in Grasshopper Creek at Bannack State Park. "Awesome little campground next to Grasshopper Creek. Caught a few fish on the fly too. Mosquitos were bad, no surprise there with the creek close by," notes Jeff W.

    Gold panning: Try your luck at finding gold in streams near historic mining areas. "Bannack lies in a remote corner of Montana, but there is much to see and do at the Bannack State Park. The Bannack ghost town is extensive and well-preserved. They offer tours, gold panning and more," shares Lindsay B.

    Junior Ranger program: Children can participate in educational activities at the state park. "The Campground has 16 sites, one site is just for those arriving by bike. Kids visiting the park can work on a Jr. Ranger program. Great time to visit is when they have volunteers dressed in period clothing," advises Dexter I.

    What campers like

    Historical immersion: Visitors appreciate the authentic ghost town atmosphere at Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park. "Did you know you can print out a packet for your little ones to become Cub Rangers at this State Park? There are great amenities for both camping and RV'S with a child's playground located on the camp," writes Sierra V.

    Creek-side camping: Sites positioned along waterways provide both scenery and recreation. "Campgrounds are right by the creek, awesome 100+ year old buildings. Check out Bannack Days!" recommends Megan B.

    Mountain views: The surrounding peaks create dramatic backdrops for campsites. At Clark Canyon Recreation Area, "The back drop of the snow capped mountains across the reservoir was spectacular. Prepare for wind. Very clean and well kept spot for boondocking," advises Sue Y.

    Wildlife watching: Many glamping sites offer opportunities to spot local fauna. "Deer visited camp at night! Check weather report, strong winds and we had thunderstorms," reports Mark F. at Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park.

    What you should know

    Seasonal considerations: Many glamping sites close during winter months. At Ruby Valley Campground and RV Park, "My wife and I were looking for an affordable spot to spend the night in our teardrop (Li'l Blue) and the Ruby Valley Campground fit the bill! With no need for hookups, we paid a mere $28 for a roomu site adjacent to the water," says Richard P.

    Booking requirements: Reservations are recommended during peak summer months. "Vigilante campsites can be reserved. The other campground is Road Agent Campground. Road Agent has 8 sites. Both sites have Vault Toilets, water and trash bins," explains Dexter I.

    Weather preparedness: Mountain weather can change rapidly. "We got snow on Labor Day weekend (still Summer!), so check the forecast," warns Mitch G. from Grasshopper Campground.

    Limited connectivity: Cell service varies throughout the region. At Delmoe Lake, "Some have 3 bars of 4G Verizon, others none. Peaceful spot," shares Bryce B.

    Tips for camping with families

    Playground access: Several campgrounds include play areas for children. Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park offers "a child's playground located on the camp. With a short walk up and into the mountain you can tour the caverns," mentions Sierra V.

    Educational opportunities: Historical sites provide learning experiences. "Bannack is a ghost town that has been designated as a MT State Park. The 1860s mining town's buildings have been stabilized but not restored. It's fascinating," explains Gretchen B.

    Swimming spots: Look for designated swimming areas during hot summer days. At Fairmont RV Resort, "The proximity to Fairmont hot springs is great and we took advantage of the pools," notes Chris D.

    Bug protection: Bring insect repellent, particularly for sites near water. "Beautiful small camp with a creek flowing around it. Heavily shaded. Bring bug spray because the mosquitos are out of control!" recommends Sasha W. from Lodgepole Campground.

    Tips from RVers

    Hookup availability: Full-service sites are limited but available at select locations. "Fairmont RV Resort has nice level gravel site. Sites are close to each other. There were no picnic tables and wood fires are not allowed so no fire rings. Frost free spigots were good especially since the weather at night was below freezing," shares Chris D.

    Dump station locations: Plan for waste disposal needs. "Just empty your tanks and fill up on water, food and supplies in Dillon," advises Richard M. who stayed at Bannack State Park.

    Generator etiquette: Be mindful of noise in quieter campgrounds. "Bring a generator to charge you bank, though I felt bad about running them because of the disruption in the serenity," notes Richard M.

    Site selection: Choose locations based on shade and level ground. "Watch carefully as not all sites have a level place to put a tent," cautions Annie C. from Lodgepole Campground.
