Best Campgrounds near Miles City, MT

Beautiful campground. Nice sites, forested area, cool access to Yellowstone River. Clean pit toilets, reasonable rates. But oh boy, the trains came all night, announcing their arrival. So bring some earplugs and you’ll have a better night’s sleep.

Upto 16 days camping and it is free.

My two hunting dogs ran amok for hours. There was nobody in the park but us. A few people drove through. The park is kept immaculate. There are several paths mowed down for great walks through the prairie. This is a dry campsite. If my dogs are happy, I'm happy. I can deal with rustic accommodations if I can exercise my dogs freely without leash laws! The pond and surrounding scenery are gorgeous. I actually enjoyed hearing the train and nearby farm equipment. It was a whole vibe. I did need to purchase my conservation license for Montana. I didn't know it was "a thing." $10....worth it!!! There was an abandoned campsite that the critters got into the garbage. From the looks of it, this person was here with a dog within the last week. There's a generator and deflated tent, fishing pole, and cooler with rotten food in it. I'd love to know the story there. Lots of wood ticks, btw. 🤮

Its a free BLM campground With a camp host on location. Nice scenic location by the river side with boat access.

This review is from the perspective of an overnight or short-term stay versus a destination location. We ensured we obeyed the campground’s(CG) instructional email stating to take Exit 135 and no others as there’s a low bridge through town from the other exits. We then followed the instructions to this quaint little KOA CG. The people running the CG were super friendly, and check-in was quick and easy. We were led to pull through site 82 with FHUs. The utilities were placed in the middle of the site to include two sewer connections, which was nice as our new Brinkley Toy Hauler has two sewer connections. The sites have newer picnic tables and fire pits. The WiFi speed here was okay, and we got enough of a northern shot through the mature trees to have usable Starlink. We got 4 bars on Verizon. The water pressure was also good. They have a spacious laundry with a nice book swap library. The office has a small gift shop with grocery items, including selling local steaks, as this is where the USDA’s Fort Keogh Livestock and Range Research Laboratory is located. They have a medium-sized fenced-in dog run, but there is plenty of room to walk your dog, especially out of the west side of the CG near the Yellowstone River. We enjoyed our overnight stay here.

Stayed at KOA in Miles City MT on way back from Yellowstone National Park August 2023.  This place is clean, wife thought they had the cleanest and best showers of all the places we stayed for two weeks.  I agree. Easy pull through and you are led to your spot.  The people help you line up with hook ups.  Quite at night, great pool.

Was easy to get to, pulled in our 32ft trailer very easily. Lots of open spaces and fire pits at every site. We had a water spout right by our site which was very convenient! Other then 104 degrees and a horrible amount of gnats, flies and mosquitoes it was a nice stop. It’s was quite and site are spaced out.

Easily accessible. Tent camping was great, and no one was around us. Restrooms are great. Very clean overall and nice easy to check in if you come late.

Cheap by comparison, 30$, with electric, showers and bathrooms

Plenty off pull off areas. There are 3 campgrounds in the park, two lake, rushing stream. Great kayaking and fishing. Bear spray recommended. Grizzly look for easy meals at night.

Everything you would hope for in a campground, except for hookups, of course. Quiet, peaceful and clean.

This is a very nice KOA, well maintained and clean with a cute store, playground, dog area, pool and pavilion area. Walking distance to downtown and to the Yellowstone river. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Shaded level sites. Pay attention to the directions given to get into the campground as there is an 11’ clearance bridge in town.

The is just a dirt lot with hookups. It’s very close to the water but the area isn’t very well maintained. I stayed here a few days after it had rained and the site was just deep mud that was so deep you couldn’t walk around outside. The electric kept going out at my site and I was worried that it would damage my fifth wheel electric. It is way overpriced for what you are getting. It would be nice if they put some gravel in so it wasn’t just a muddy field. Sites are pretty close together and the roads are not very wide. I have a 37’ fifth wheel and had to be very careful driving on the roads due to then being so narrow. Overall I would not stay here again due to the high prices to park in a muddy field with horrible electric. Water pressure also always seemed to be low.

Great staff close to lots of trails and west Yellowstone entry

Stayed here overnight on our way to Big Sky. Very easy to get to right off of I94. Friendly host, easy check in. Full hook ups, Wi-Fi, pull through site which was level so it didn’t take much to set up camp. Bathroom/shower facility was clean. Plenty of shade.

Flat camping sites, mostly pull thru, with fire rings, picknic tables. One vault toilet, always clean,always has paper. Campground is free and open all year. Some sites are alongside a pond, where I have seen people swimming. There is a short hiking trail to the river. Not far from the campsites is a boat launch.  I drive through this campground almost daily and in the last year have only seen it 80% full at the most.  Con: no electricity, no drinking water. Stay limit of 7 days. Very well maintained.

The town of Rosebud has a bar, that is open in the weekends, and serves dinner. 

The town of Forsyth is 15 minutes away, and has a grocery store, hardware store(s) and gas station(s). Also a one room movie theater, completely restored with lounge chairs. Forsyth has a bowling alley. Great place for camping, fishing, swimming, shopping, and relaxing.

I have good connection with Verizon here.

Nice place, was really quiet. Wish the office would work a bit longer hours.

Clean and friendly staff with pool available. Full hookups and close to some restaurants for dinner. Sites are gravel but well maintained and level. Lots of shade!

Good shade for Montana. Level sites. Well maintained. Great over night stop. Definitely do it again

The campground isn’t super updated but the small town with gravel roads and kind people make up for it. There’s a rodeo on the 4th of July and it’s just nice.
