Best Glamping near Neihart, MT

This was the best KOA I’ve ever been to. I’m not a dedicated KOA camper but I’ve been to my fair share and this one takes the cake. The grounds were shaded and kept tidy, the shower+toilet bathroom combo was really nice and super clean. The amenities and camp store were great too. We stayed in the glamping tent for one night, which was a super cool spot with a great view. Unfortunately it rained all night. We were nice and dry but the road up from the glamping tent got muddy and slick. Thankfully we have 4-wheel drive. A 2-wheel drive car may have gotten stuck. Overall it was great and I wish we could have stayed longer!

General: Just about every option you could ask for (except for tents): 50-amp FHU pull-thru, 30/20-amp with w/e(back-in and pull-thru), FHU with patio, glamping tent, one and two-room cabins and cottages. 

Site Quality: Different from many KOAs we have stayed in is that the camper pads are gravel, not paved, and there are quite a few trees that provide decent separation/privacy between the sites. The sites are bordered by railroad ties, and some are a tighter fit than others. A few of the sites at the end of the row before the glamping site appeared a little overgrown. As is usual for a KOA, our site was assigned upon check-in. The first site we were assigned didn’t work out for us since our electric cord could not reach the pedestal. Be aware that electric connections are shared between two sites so if you do not have an extension cord, you may have a problem (or need to be reassigned which was easily done for us). 

Bath/Shower House: Accessed by code. All-in-one units with soap and paper towels. They were clean. 

Activities/Amenities: Many and varied including a water playground (guests can join you here by paying a fee), petting zoo, train, dog park, yard games, bike rentals, propane fill, dump station, laundry, ice, ice cream, and free pancakes. There was even live entertainment! 

We don’t typically stay in KOAs or RV parks (mainly because of cost and lack of privacy between sites) but they are good for us when we need showers, laundry, and a dump station. Although still more than we like to spend for camping, this one was a pleasant surprise with the number of trees on the property. The staff was exceedingly friendly!

First camp we stayed at on a week long trip to Montana. We came on a weekday, so hardly any one there.

You have to drive through part of Great Falls, Montana to get to this campground, but once you are in it, you forget all about the city. You get the full camping (in a campground) experience, but you can easily drive into the city to pick up whatever you forgot to pack.

Our site was in what they call a tent village, which is a nice roundabout of tent sites. There are walls separating the sites for privacy, but the area is big enough for your vehicle and a large tent, or multiple smaller tents. Toward the middle of the roundabout is a covered area, including a table, counter, electrical outlets, and a large cabinet that can be locked with a padlock. The tent villages are very close to a nice restroom/showers that require a key code to get in.

Right off the road but feels pretty tucked away. Shared the camp with 3 small RVs but everyone had plenty of space. The are has been cleared of timber and there was plenty of wood laying around. Sites are nice with solid tables and fire pits. Two vault toilets as well. Beautiful creek flows through the campsite. Would recommend. $10 self pay no reservations.

Beautiful little campground with a creek running through. About 10 sites. The campground is large enough for small trailers. Some sites are not terribly level and they were all quite overgrown with flowers and weeds. One vault toilet. Definitely bear country and be very cautious about ticks. Make sure to store food properly. No cell phone service with Verizon.

Jumping Creek campground has seen better days.  This 15 site campground is with out trees so you are in clear view of everyone else at the campground.  Trees have been removed.  The campground has two vault toilets and water available.  This is a trash in Trash out campground.  Cost is $15 a night.  Campground was full on my arrival.  Nice stream is near the campground.

We stayed here on our way to GNP and I have to say, we absolutely loved it. At first I didn’t like how there were no trees, but honestly, it was private anyways because nobody else was there. The bathrooms were clean, which is super important to us. We enjoyed ourselves.

Due to a tree fungus the Forest Service has clear cut this campground a few years ago. Now it’s low shrubs, wild flowers and blueberries. The sites are on the outside of a loop like many FS campgrounds. Water is a well with pump. The toilets are clean pit toilets. We were there mid week and only three of twelve sites were taken. It does have a nice stream running along one side with shade. Nothing here to get very excited about.

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 only camped at the campground a few time no e place but we usually go further up and find a primitive spot

The campground itself is nice but the 4th of July crowd was mostly there for motorized recreation. This, combined with peoples general disregard for how loud they are, was annoying. Logging creek flows behind the campground and a few of the middle numbered sites are creekside. There is also plenty of dispursed camping up the road.

This is a wooded camp ground near the creek with pit toilets.

I went just overnight to go watch the metor shower. I camped in a tent. Deer wandered into the campground throughout the night and morning. You can hear logging creek moving from no matter where you are. The road was a lil rough with the washed out gullies in the road with the cattle guards. But I overall loved it.

I hope we just had an off weekend cause it wasn’t a very pleasant stay. There was trash (including used toilet paper) on the grounds. The bathroom was ATROCIOUS and gross (poop smeared on the walls). Teens and young adults came and went frequently throughout the evening and night and were loud (arguing, revving engines at 2am) and they weren’t even camping out. We were in tents and heard everything. The creek was beautiful but we won’t be back to this campground.

Not going to lie. I didn't know what to expect and white knuckled a but driving my little old motorhome down into this ground. This is a bit of a trek.

TOTALLY worth it if you are up for the adventure though.

The campsites are beautiful, seclided, and shaded. There is water for kids to play in. There is a camp host. And several toilets. Endless trail. If you do some research in that area there is a place where there are some caves to explore, and another with fossils.

No cell service. But one of my favs so far.

Small campground scatter along the lake, boat ramp and launch in good shape. Set in the mountains around White Sulphur Springs with WSS easily accessible if you forget something. No cell reception and your TVs won't work so better bring DVDs if you can tear yourself away from the great fishing and fantastic scenery. Cool nights around a campfire looking out on the moonlit lake - for me the only way to get any better is to have the place all to myself ;)

Newman creek is prettier than it looks in the pictures with good shade but it is very busy. The camp site 14 was right next to the boat launch and “beach” which is used as a day access site. Be prepared to be making friends!

Was able to get a spot right on the water late on a Saturday night. Quiet, fire rings tables and restrooms. Not much to complain about.

Met a group of friends here for two nights in early June. Nice, but small campground with about 10 or so sites. Some are not well situated for parking a camper, but it didn’t seem to crowded and we had our choice of spots early evening on a Friday. Nice creek through campground with small pools and fallen logs to cross on.
