We followed our GPS into Havre(pronounced Hav-er). When we got to US-2 coming in from the south on US-87, the GPS wanted us to go left where in actuality, you need to turn right and go through Havre as the Campground (CG) is 7 miles out of town on US-2 East. The CGs website instructions tell you about this GPS error. There were no issues with check-in and we headed to pull through site 15 with FHUs. The utilities are near the middle of the very-long gravel and soft dirt pad. Water pressure was good at about 50 psi but we got some sulfur smell and taste even with our three way filter system. We got 4 bars on Verizon. Most of the sewer connections are extended well out of the ground, so you will have to get your sewer hose up so that gravity flows at least level. This is essentially a large gravel, some grass, and weed parking lot, but the sites are decently spaced apart. There are no trees, so we didn’t have a problem with Starlink. During the day, theres a lot of US-2 road and train noise as the tracks run parallel to US-2. At night, the highway noise goes way down but there are still trains. We enjoyed the farm animals and especially the male peacock that was strutting around with feathers all spread out, which we found out is called train rattling. We tried several times to log into their WiFi during our two day stay, but never connected. This CG worked okay for our short stay.
GuidePull through sites with full hook ups and easy access. There's a small dog park, donkeys, chickens, ducks, and the place is nestled between the hills of Northern Montana. Perfect stopping place before crossing the border into Canada!
ScoutNice little zoo at the campground. All sites are pull through and full hook ups. No shade. Which kinda stunk when it was 100 degrees out. They do nightly, weekly and monthly rates.
GuideWe had a wonderful time! Horses, mules, goats, chickens, alligator’s;), ducks & geese. Kids had a great time! Flat area, spots are pretty big, highway is close but it’s pretty quiet! All hookups available, easy in & out. Customer service is wonderful!!
GuideThis was a fun, unexpected stop. Unfortunately it's a bit in the middle of no where, Montana, but we were delighted none the less. They have chickens and ducks and geese, goats, and donkeys. You can feed them and visit with them. The sites are huge. No big trees, and right by the highway and train tracks. But it was peaceful and restful, and just what our family needed to recharge. Bonus that they took our Good Sam membership!

We stayed here a few days in May. We had a great time. There were only 2 other people camping there the whole weekend. There’s tons of trails to ride side by sides. The campground is clean and the sites have plenty of space for our 28ft toy hauler. We would definitely stay here again.
TravelerI stumbled across Camp Creek Campground summer of '19 when I was having some problems with my slides and needed to stop for the night. The campground has several very large pull through spots, and folks with horses often pass through. Upon entering the campground area, a caretakers spot is early on, while no caretaker was employed last year, there is a sanitary dump station at the site, as well as, potable water. A bit past that is a large area for horse trailer parking, and a corral. As one progresses down the road, a large group gathering area is on left of the road, along with parking. A bit further are large, clean, restroom facilities, and another area for both parking and pulling one's rig through to load up on water. Continuing down the road are numerous camping spots, most are smaller. However, a the end of the loop are two large spots big enough to pull a large fifth wheel or motorhome through. A further two or three large back in sites are there as well. A small stream runs through the back area, and endless hiking / horseback riding trails are in this area as well. Further, there is another hookup one can fill their tanks with potable water (no sites have water hookups on site, except the caretakers). When I was there in late July, the campground was maybe 1/3 full. We ended up staying three nights.
Drawbacks: there are four to note. First, while the sites are well kept, those with very wide RV's (mine is 92") or high (mine is 13') will find branches to be bothersome at best. In my case I made a decision some time ago that I was going to be careful, but my rig was going to get used in the great outdoors, and that meant getting a scratch from time to time. I fully realize when one is paying $60k - $500k and more, that may be somewhat less than desirable. And while there are several good sized spaces, I wouldn't try bringing in anything longer than 36' (mine is 33). Second, the road in is rather long, a good gravel road, but gravel (and dusty) none the less. If one gets caught in the rain this area is well known for it's gumbo roads … they can be very miserable. Third, a local told me that the place was heaven nearly all season … except .. during hunting season. He used some rather colorful language to depict the camping environment during those six weeks or so in late fall. Fourth, if you have a problem you are a long way from help, and there is no cell service. All that said, this is a wonderful campground, great for kids and Old Goats like me.
