Best Cabin Camping near Hardin, MT

Definitely caters more towards glamping or RV life if that's your thing. The campground was gorgeous and staff was incredibly friendly. The only reason I'm rating 4 stars is because it's a long trek to the river. I assumed from the name we'd be close enough to it to see water or hear it from our campground. The closest "river" is a completely dry bed which is probably an over flow channel and then it's another long trail through field and bramble to get to the actual river. Aside from that. Their are fire rings/grills at the camping sites w electric as well as access to amazing private bathrooms with insanely awesome water pressure and very clean surroundings

There are dry docking camp sites stuffed in the back of the Campground as well. We didn't get a chance to use the pool/spa but they looked really nice!

The original KOA. This place is well kept, and staff was very friendly. Our site was pretty far from the restrooms/showers/office/store, but that was made up for by the spaciousness of the site, a picnic table, and access to potable water at the site, even though that was not included in our site description when booking. You can also hear the Yellowstone River flowing behind the site, which was nice to fall asleep to. In the mornings, they offer a pancake breakfast. In the evenings, there is an ice cream social where you can meet other campers, swap stories, share experiences, etc.

Never have we stayed at a KOA before so this stay was different than anything we’ve experienced before. The pull through site we had included a patio with swing and picnic table- but not much on space... probably only 15 feet between rigs(?) however the campground had plenty of activities and amenities, including mini golf, pool, lodge, dog park, playground, ice cream stand and a BBQ joint, and the mini golf, and food stuffs were all an additional fee. We were only staying one night, and didn’t partake in any of the activities, and at the price of the per night rate, I felt that maybe we wouldn’t stay at another KOA, mostly because of the spacing issue, and the fact that it didn’t really feel like a campground at all... but like I said, we are used to slightly more rustic conditions, lol. It is worth mentioning that just a few miles away is Pictograph State Park- and that was pretty cool, and a beautiful walk after a day of driving!

I am usually pretty doubtful about booking privately run campgrounds and try to mostly avoid them. However, this place was the exception to that rule. The place is pristine, nicely landscaped and it’s obvious they work hard to keep it looking so welcoming. All sites are pull thru with full hookup. Plenty of open area to get out and walk. We travel with 2 large dogs and the campground has excellent places to walk dogs. They also don’t mind your dog off leash if outside the “fenced”area. The store sells homemade food items and the welcoming free ice cream bars are a thoughtful and yummy touch. Ice can be purchased in the store. Bathrooms are exceptionally clean. Showers hot with good water pressure. Laundry facilities- 3 washing machines, 3 dryers which did become a high demand while we were there. One reviewer complained bitterly about the train keeping him awake. I’m a light sleeper and had no trouble sleeping. If I had found it troubling I believe our rv fan/a/c would “cover” the train sound. The sunsets are beautiful. This campground was a relaxing way to “recharge” after a long day. Peaceful and restful.

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.

There is so much good to say about this campground. They have so many fun things to do! Mini golf, arcade, playground, bonfire pit, basketball court, bikes to rent, pool & hot tub, plus the whole campground borders the Yellowstone River! We caught so many frogs, not to mention fish! The staff is awesome, especially when they open their outdoor restaurant for meals. There are peacocks that roam the grounds, and they are awesome. Amenities include: showers, laundry, general store, WiFi, power outlets to all campsites, security, library, and so much more!
