Recreation opportunities abound, including floating, fishing, canoeing and hiking. Access from December 1 through June 15 is by snowshoe, snowmobile, cross country skiing or hiking for 6 miles.
The Ice Caves Trail leads hikers to the ridgetop of the Big Snowy Mountains, where it intersects with the Crystal Cascades Trail Bypass. The Lake Loop Trail trailhead, located at the north end of the Crystal Lake Campground, takes hikers to Grand View Trail Junction and additional ridgetop views. Both the Ice Caves Trail and Grand View Trail may be impacted by winter snow as late as the first part of July. The lake freezes over and ice fishing is possible if the ice is thin enough for fish to survive. In summer months, the lake is stocked with rainbow trout. Kayaking and canoeing is popular.
The cabin sits near the shores of Crystal Lake. The beautiful lake spans 45 acres at an elevation of 5,700 feet. With a maximum depth of 15 feet, the lake seeps fresh water through a porous limestone bottom. The lake generally freezes in the winter.The Big Snowy Mountains, lush with mixed conifers, rise up from the lake, providing spectacular views. The highest peaks in the mountain range reach 8,600 feet.

Friday night and not a soul in sight. Like other reviews- very open. Staying on the outside provides better privacy, but with no one there - lots of privacy.
TravelerWe had the place to ourselves mid week it was so quiet. Lots of space between spots, easy to get into. Great get away.

We just returned from a very pleasant two night stay. The camp is clean and well maintained. The community bathrooms/showers are cleaned daily. One recommendation would be to bring your own drinking water as the camp water has a high and noticeable mineral content. That said, the sun rises and sun sets were worth the trip and any hardship from having to use my own water for drinking and cooking.
Only downside is the camp is literally in a prairie dog town so my bird dogs were constantly on high alert living among the natives. A small price to pay for a well run camp with hosts that clearly care.
GuideFound this place on accident with Google. It's a way off from city life. At one point we were in the middle of nowhere and still had an hour to go. The views on the way are amazing though. The site has RV, tent and cabin rentals available and are in great shape. Bath houses are new with flushing toilets, full showers and a large basin sink for washing cooking supplies. They have a 2 mile loop that allows you to see some amazing views. Worth doing.... Would definitely take the detour to stay here again.

Don't go for the ambiance but if you're going for the fishing then you're in the right place.
GuideOne of our favorites places to boondock. Beautiful views, the lake is amazing, and the hike to the ice caves, while difficult, is SO worth it.

Allegedly, Crystal Lake drained into a limestone fissure in the earth. Bummer. But it's still an insanely beautiful area with hikes up to a year-round ice cave! The area is a mountain oasis in North Central Montana.
