Best Cabin Camping near Martinsdale, MT

The Judith Guard cabin is an amazing forest service cabin to stay in. This cabin is an historic two story cabin near the Middle Fork of the Judith River.  The cabin pretty much fully stocked, it has propane heat a cook stove, has beds to sleep eight people. Cabin has an old piano as well.  Water is available from a hand pump. and a vault toilet is next to the cabin. There is no electricity or trash service some come prepared. You will need to bring a light source.  Fire wood is available in the wood shed during the winter months. This cabin is not handicap accessible.

Cost is $60 a night and can be reserved at https://www.recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/234427?tab=campsites

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.

LOVED this cabin. It was very accessible, with an easy road. You can drive right up to the cabin. There are two wood stoves, one in the sleeping area with two bunks. It got VERY toasty in there with the fire going (but with two adults and two large dogs shoved all on one bed together, what can you expect?) there was plenty of wood, the fire pit was perfect, and the area beautiful. 10/10

Hidden treasure. A great cabin hidden in the Crazy Mountains, totally worth checking out. I never wanted to leave.
I did have to book her a month out so plan according.

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. The area is near Showdown Ski Bowl with tons to do!

Cozy forest service cabin, wood stove for heat. Close to highway, so there's road noise but creek and cliffs make it relaxing to sit outside. (Families with small children beware of Proximity to highway).

Second time here and love it as much as before. Huge, open space, great views, hiking, and privacy. Stayed in our rv this time, but the cabin is spacious and well appointed. Too bad they doubled the rates. Maybe making a reservation will be easier?

Cabin stays cool in the summer and has wood stove for cold winters. Propane stove makes cooking easy. Creek nearby for water (or campground a few miles up road has well and spring with potable water). Lots of activities nearby rock hounding/fossils, hikes, small waterfall, swimming in creek.

We enjoyed one night here before heading up to Two Medicine. the cabin is cozy and rustic. The flies are maddening tho! bring spray or fly paper. They have swatters! the bathroom is clean but I recommend bringing some TP just in case. There are some cleaning supplies and dishes and cups. it was pretty dusty and dirty inside but a sweep and a wipe down cleared that up. the views look unreal across the meadow. There is a clear small spring creek you can use for water but you MUST treat it or use Sawyer or LifeStraw. Ice cold and delicious. Only saw birds and deer. We would have loved more time here but Glacier calls!

Battle ridge is the perfect spot for a weekend getaway quiet and clean!!

We had the place to ourselves mid week it was so quiet. Lots of space between spots, easy to get into. Great get away.

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.

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, and no amenities. And of course, no cost. I think the actual Moose Creek Campground is farther up the road and away from the highway. But this was perfect for someone who is caravaning and needed a quick place to stop. It's right on the creek and it was delightful. There was one other camper in there the evening I was there.

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.

One 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.

There is a very generous amount of space between camp sites making this campground feel very private. I brought my dog and it was really nice to have all that space. The campground has excellent views of the Bridgers. It's a fairly shady campground, bugs weren't too bad. Each site has a fire pit and a picnic table.

Campground was nice and woodsey. Love hearing the birds and wind blowing through the trees. The only negative about the place was these people with several kids that seemed to be living there. The kids were noisy and riding bikes through our campsite. The two families that lived there in an RV were extremely nosey. They acted like they owned the place.

Other then that the campground was great. We camped there twice in a months time and that family was still there....ughhh

My wife and I thought we were going to have a nice quiet camping trip.

We camped next to a very nosey lady who was livi g in the campground with tons of kids.

Not what we were expecting😩

Plenty of space and clean pit toilets!

The hosts, Larry &Linda, are two of the nicest people. Would've been perfect if not for the methed up neighbor. Close to nice trails and fishing, clean bathrooms and fire pits. No water or power.
