Best Glamping near Ovando, MT

Best $10 campsites imaginable. I have always enjoyed able to roll up and there was an available site. Good for traders up to 23ft and even has water and power sites. Sweet little secret gem of a campground and centrally located close enough range of possibilities to go see around Central Montana. Bring bug spray.

Easy access from I-90. Beautiful location, classic Montana with trees mountains and rivers! Great restaurant on site. Campsites are the reason for not giving 5 stars. Very tight and not great space for maneuverability. Was not full so we were fine with a big rig. Had it been full would be a little uncomfortable.

A quick shout out to Jo, the campground hostess, for treating us so well! It was a great place to stay and she made us feel right at home.  We had been staying at different sites as we traveled to Montana from Iowa and this one was a favorite!. We will make it a point to stay there again when coming  out west.

I came here in a Friday evening hoping to snag a campground, but it was full. The hosts approached me and were very kind and understanding and let me stay in the overflow - however, one night of camping for a non-Montana resident is $34!! The hosts again lowered it to $24 since I didn’t need any electric hookup. Normally I wouldn’t pay that much, but it was getting late and there weren’t many other options.

We stayed at Beavertail Hill Campground about 30 minutes East of Missoula, Montana. It is a very pretty. The mountains surround the campground with a small river that runs next to the campground. I'm not much of a fisherman but it is very pretty. There are some short hiking trails around the campground. The campground was not full and was very quiet.

The campground is clean and the campsites have plenty of room. There are flush toilets and they are clean. I did not give this campground five stars because it lacks a shower house and feels more like a place to stay the night, it doesn't seem to have much to offer for longer stays.

this cute campground is close to the interstate and right next to beaver tail pond which is great for swimming and fishing. the campground has some cool teepees and is great for group sites. it is usually pretty busy in the summertime and fills with RVs, it’s mostly a car camping campground.

We stayed here 3 nights as part of a 9-night trip. We loved the site we were in (9). It was along the water and opened up to a grassy area and the river. The park is not far off of the interstate. While the traffic can be heard, it was not distracting. There is also a set of RR tracks that run along the freeway. There were 8-10 trains that went by daily.. honking at the RR crossing. The park is relatively small, but the sites all seemed large enough and well spaced. There were a few large RVs there. The camp hosts were super friendly. Flush toilets were clean. The overall condition of the campground is good.

My family and I loved this campground. We are tent campers. It was well-laid-out. We did a little exploring by the beaver pond and river. The staff was super friendly. It was great access - right off the interstate. Facilities were clean.

Nice camp ground power have to reserve online $10 service charge for online reservations would be the only complaint

This is a great stop if you need a place to crash. The train and the highway are adjacent to the campground so the noise was an issue for us. There is also a shooting range nearby. Overall very clean and friendly.

Enjoyed our stay over a weekend! Nice 1 mile hiking trail through the state park. Was able to watch a group of cow/calf elk on Beavertail Hill from our camping spot. A few miles up Rock Creek Rd is a Big Horn Sheep viewing area. Water available at the campground but no dump station, however just to the east is Bearmouth RV Park where you can dump for $15.

If you didn't make a reservation in advance don't bother even showing your face. My group and I had been displaced by fires for 48 hours and couldn't make it to the actual reservations we made so we were desperate for a place to stay, stranded in Missoula. When we arrived trying to find a spot, the first open one we came upon was reserved for accessibility camping until 8pm. We stopped the car for literal minutes to walk and check the rest of the campground to see if anything was open and then we were going to decide if we wanted to hang out until 8pm or move on and try to keep searching because we were desperate. Before we even had a chance to discuss anything, a man on a tricycle approached us and started yelling at us, making it very clear we weren't even welcome, couldn't be bothered to listen to us, spoke to us like we were idiots, and tried to ticket us. Let me remind you, we had been stopped for literally minutes, had not unpacked anything out of our car, had not insinuated we even wanted the campsite, and this man verbally attacked us. He said"if we couldn't see the reserved sign with our eyes then we shouldn't be allowed to drive" among many other rude and demeaning comments. The staff was completely unwilling to listen, did not want to help, couldn't be bothered, horrible at customer service, and were very cold.

Right off the I-90, this was a lovely camping ground with clean bathrooms and quiet campsites. Note that not all campsites allow for cars to pull in too close, some have logs on the border. We usually have a tent attached to our car but it was fine. Mosquitos came out at dusk but we’re gone by sundown. Really pretty stargazing on a clear night!

Qsuite this time of year

lovely sites, staff very accommodating, nice amenities although no water/sewer hookups, but knew that going in. Sweet stream at rear of park, very scenic. Did a dusk walk hoping to see owls, but shut out. would go back again

This was a quick spot when traveling to Yellowstone. Easy to access from I-90. Not a huge place and no showers. But the bathrooms are clean, the campgrounds have space and you get to listen to the river. Unfortunately the fishing wasn’t superb based on the river run off for the season. But it wasn’t a bad spot when we were tired and ready to make dinner.

My first time at this campground. Never saw the hosts and was unsure about how “first come, first served worked.” Needed quarters for the wood machine and it was out of order. There was no sign for the senior discount as at other state parks, only a “no refunds” sign. Smelly pit toilet and no light inside. I stayed during the week and it was not serviced(drained) during that time. Constant noise from highway traffic and trains. Won’t stay there again and doubt that I would recommend it to anyone.

…unless it's late & you’re desperate for a camp site. 

Plenty of available sites in October— other campers were mainly hunters (or fishers).  No camp host; ADA pit toilet only one open (comfort station closed); all water was winterized & no elec hook-up available.  (Fees sign— see photo-- left no indication that fees were seasonal; we were ready with our contribution but since nobody to collect, we didn’t leave it.)   24 sites (1 ADA) + 2 tipi sites, all nicely spaced & shrubbery for privacy; #1-12 by the river. 

The biggest deterrent to this CG is the many trains that came through during the night— 3-4/hr, all night— and they all blasted their whistles 3-4 times each!  I guess if you are immuned to that, this would be a great campsite.

Great little spot hidden in the mountains but be careful of the self guided tour we walked it and there were literal swarms of mosquitoes We ended up having to jog back and in that short time me my daughter had over 20 bites

Stayed 4 nights Memorial Day weekend , camp ground was clean and well maintained, camp ground was full all weekend but very peaceful, we will be back soon.

The tipis were a lot of fun to sleep in! The river trail was beautiful to walk.

Loved it here - great feel, good neighbors, large sites and a fantastic river location.  The sites were right off the campground road... a Bjorn no-no... but I can imagine this being the go-to campground choice of a few in-the-know individuals.

We were a little nervous after reading the other reviews, but very pleasantly surprised. The sites are pretty spacious for the most part; some on the banks of the Clark Fork River. Very clean area and bathrooms. The park manager is super friendly and nice. The 1 mile Nature Trail around the area is really well maintained and beautiful. There are 2 Tipi sites you can rent as well. Yes, it's about a quarter mile from I 90, the highway noise is minimal in my opinion. $30 per night with electric only for out of state, $20 for Montanans or those with a non- resident pass. Looks like most sites have plenty of shade for the summer days. The Ghost Town of Garnet is close by, an excellent day trip. Be sure to stop in at Parkers in Drummond for an amazing real milkshake!!

Beautiful place quiet only issue was the bugs

I arrived a little early and my site was still occupied. The camphost suggested I go under the high way a few hundred yards away to Beavertail Hill Pond. Was a sweet little spot with lots of locals kayaking and fishing from the shore. There's a trail all the way around.

The campground itself is close to the Clark Fork River and there are several places to access it from the campground. The river was pretty swift in June. 

I paid $44 for an electric site. It had plenty of privacy and plenty of shade. There was a place to ride my bike and a sweet walking trail through the campground. Not a bad place to stop for a day/night.
