Best RV Parks & Resorts near Ovando, MT

Several RV parks operate within 30 miles of Ovando, Montana, providing various hookup options for motorhome travelers. Granite Peak RV Resort in Missoula features 110 sites with full hookups including 50-amp service, though many sites have sloped gravel pads. "If the smoke from summer wildfires were not so thick, you could see the beautiful long range, multi tiered mountains. The only reason for the 4 stars is that the sites are not level. Jack's were fully extended and some wheels off the ground," noted one camper. Bernie & Sharon's Riverfront RV Park in Garrison offers full hookup sites with 50-amp service and accommodates big rigs on its pull-through sites. Jim & Mary's RV Park north of Missoula provides 74 sites with water, sewer, and electrical connections, remaining open year-round with well-maintained gravel pads.

Advance reservations are strongly recommended during summer months when RV sites throughout the region fill quickly. Most parks provide sanitary dump stations, though availability varies by location. Cell service is generally reliable near larger towns like Missoula, with one visitor reporting "5 bars of 5G AT&T" at Granite Peak RV Resort, while coverage becomes spotty in more remote locations. Pet policies differ between facilities, with most allowing pets but enforcing leash requirements. Winter travelers should note that while Jim & Mary's operates year-round, many parks including Bernie & Sharon's (open March-November) and Granite Peak (May-October) close seasonally. Navigation to some parks requires careful planning, as mountain roads can present challenges for larger motorhomes, particularly during adverse weather conditions.

    Hooper Park

    Great campground and park

    Nice place, quite and inviting. Walking distance to all the amenities of town. This park has a pit toilet and flush toilets, also showers, potable water and garbage service. Huge spots with lots of space. Pull through spots perfect for RV or tent camping. Sites available with or without hookups. Playground for kids and it's pet friendly! We love this park.

    Granite Peak RV Resort

    Surrounded by mountains

    If the smoke from summer wildfires were not so thick, you could see the beautiful long range, multi tiered mountains. The park is well maintained. I love the fact that they have a puttputt on the grounds. Very family friendly. The only reason for the 4 stars is that the sited are not level. All, but the premium sites (concrete pads) have a slope. Jack's were fully extended and some wheels off the ground. Pulling up on blocks was no problem. Not a ton of shade at sited. I had 5 bars of 5G AT&T. Wifi repeaters were throughout the park. Would definitely recommend.

    Granite Peak RV Resort

    Fine For a Stop-off Night

    Definitely not a spot that caters to our normal priorities as it's more of a family hangout or long term place, as expected being an RV park. But it worked well as a stop-off spot for laundry, showers, electric recharge, and water fill before continuing on our way the next morning. We were worried it'd be loud being so close to the freeway, but surprisingly couldn't hear it at all.

    Facilities: Laundry, showers that feel like home more than any other we've been to, mini-golf, playground, convenience store

    Cell Service: As expected plenty of service being so close to Missoula

    Starlink: All sites are open to the sky

    Solar: All sites are open to the sky

    Placid Lake State Park Campground

    Beautiful Quiet Campground

    This was a wonderful stopover on a road trip. Beautiful lake, rich forest area. Camping spots were nicely spread out, all paved. Ours, number 27 was a pull through. Easy access, a clean spacious vault toilet very close by. Restrooms with showers and flush toilets were a short distance away. THERE ARE NO SEWER HOOKUPS. However at Seeley Lake, about four miles away there is a dump station.

    Excellent cell service for Verizon and T-Mobile.

    Reserve ahead to be sure, 18$ plus 10$ internet fee. Or walk up first come first served for $18. And with electric hookups!

    Great campground.

    Trixi’s Antler Saloon (Harvest Host)

    Great location for 1 night stay through Harvest Hosts

    This was a Harvest Host that we booked for 1 night. It is in the gravel parking lot of the saloon. They have two 50/30 amp electrical boxes and one Tesla charger. With HH it’s free (besides spending money at the saloon) or $25 to use the electric.

    It’s a very large lot with plenty of room for our 33 foot fifth wheel. The staff was super pleasant and they served good bar food. There were local beers on tap along with ciders and liquor bar. There is a nice, new patio and great 360 review of the surrounding mountains.

    At night the road traffic was alittle loud and there was no cell service, though the saloon has Wi-Fi.

    Be sure to fill fresh water tanks before stopping there. Couldn’t find a fresh water hose. No dump available.

    Great stopover with no other convenient campsites along this route.

    The Inn at Philipsburg RV Park

    In town, as advertised

    Had a van battery issue so needed to plug in for the cold night. Is as advertised, not for typical bookdockers. Owner is nice and accommodating. Maybe 12 sites with some long term renters - it appeared. All hook ups available up to 50amp. Not quite close enough to down town to walk (in winter). Philipsburg is an awesome small Montana town that’s worth a stop.

    Chief Looking Glass Campground

    Solid Place To Stay

    I rolled in mid-afternoon and was able to find a great spot to camp for a couple of days.  The sites were well dispersed and clean with picnic tables and fire pits available.

    AT&T phone service was available and at good speeds.  I chose to stay the extra day and was able to work remotely from the campground with my hotspot.

    $18/night for out of state travelers with no hookups was a bit steep.

    Good site and will be back!

    Granite Peak RV Resort

    Nice place, over priced.

    Located on the north side of town, about 15 min drive to downtown Missoula. A bit overpriced, but do accept Good Sam membership for discount until next year. Wifi was horrible- didn't work well at all and took at least 5 mins to load a page and then sometimes would not even load after all of that time. They say they are in the process of updating their wifi- hope so! We hot spotted from our phone the entire time and had good enough AT&T cell service. 

    There is a pool, gift shop in the office, as[halt roads and great walking park and has short little trails in the neighboring hay field. Easy access through the park. Our spot was a pull thru and super easy to get situated and set up. Level site, picnic table and close to neighbors. Quiet park. Laundry was horrible. 1 of the 4 washers available was working and it was hard to find a time where it was available since the park hosts so many guests. They should definitely invest in more washers or fix the ones that were out of order. They didn't have quarters in the office and the coin machine wasn't working. To avoid anymore hassle, I went downtown to Sparkle Laundry. I HIGHLY suggest over their laundry machines. It was$2.50 for a double load and drying prices ranged from$0.50+. Super friendly staff and have a little bar top and stools, along with snacks and drinks while you wait for your laundry. I suggest going there instead!

    Bernie & Sharons Riverfront RV Park

    Nice campground

    I called 30 minutes before our arrival for a tent camping spot and the host was easily able to accommodate us. Two men met us in a golf cart and drive us to our nice grassy site. The campground had coin showers with hot water and a family friendly rec room.


Guide to Ovando

Dispersed camping opportunities exist near Ovando, Montana, complemented by several established RV parks within driving distance. Located in the Blackfoot Valley at an elevation of 4,100 feet, the area experiences cool summer nights with daytime temperatures typically ranging from 70-85°F during peak camping season. Winter camping requires preparation for below-freezing temperatures, with several facilities closing seasonally.

What to do

Fish the rivers and creeks: Boulder Creek Lodge provides access to nearby fishing opportunities. "Something for everyone here and absolutely delightful. The game room and laundry open all night! Dog friendly," notes one visitor.

Visit historic sites: The region offers access to several ghost towns within driving distance. "Beautiful views here along the Clark Fork River with lots of things to do in the nearby area including visiting the Garnet Ghost town, Philipsburg, Deer Lodge, Anaconda, Butte and Missoula," reports a camper at Bearmouth RV Park.

Play outdoor games: Many RV parks near Ovando feature recreational amenities. "The layout is pretty condensed so I was quite close to my neighbor. Campground was quiet, some road noise outside. An excellent option to break up a drive on I-90," notes a visitor to Bernie & Sharons Riverfront RV Park.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Bathrooms and shower facilities receive positive comments at several campgrounds. "The 'award winning bathrooms' says so right on the building...were nice all until you try to take a shower...SUPER SUPER low water pressure, I mean I'd be surprised if it wasn't more than 1/4 gallon a minute," noted one camper at Granite Peak RV Resort.

Helpful staff: Many reviewers mention the attentive service at RV parks. "We were greeted at the entrance by 2 gentlemen that showed up on golf carts, showed us our way to our site and even guide us when backing to our site," reports a visitor to Bernie & Sharon's Riverfront RV Park.

Recreational areas: Parks often provide dedicated spaces for activities. "We enjoyed a cozy campfire thanks to their generosity in providing a fire ring and even a couple of logs to get us started," mentions a camper at Bernie & Sharon's Riverfront RV Park.

What you should know

Site conditions vary: Some campgrounds offer level sites while others present challenges. "This is one of the prettiest and cleanest campground we have ever stayed at. The sites are gravel, mostly level and most sites have shade. The pull through sites on the outer edge do not but others inside do," notes a visitor to Jim & Mary's RV Park.

Road noise: Several RV parks near Ovando are located close to highways. "Interstate noise and the occasional train whistle would keep me from using the facility for nothing more than an overnight stop," reports a Bearmouth RV Park visitor.

Seasonal sprinklers: Some parks maintain landscaping that affects camping. "There is flowers everywhere and they have a sprinkler system to keep everything pretty so you can't leave anything out overnight that you don't want to get wet," advises a Jim & Mary's RV Park camper.

Tips for camping with families

Game rooms: Several parks provide indoor recreation options. "After we ate, we went down stairs to the game room and played pool, table soccer and checkers for about 4 hours," shares a visitor to Boulder Creek Lodge.

Playgrounds: Many facilities include play areas for children. "The playgrounds are fun for the kiddos and the river walk is super close. There is lots of shade available from the trees, but our site was full sun," notes a family staying at Bernie & Sharon's Riverfront RV Park.

Gem hunting trips: The region offers unique activities within driving distance. "Lots to do in Missoula and surrounding areas. I recommend heading out to gem mountain for some Montana sapphire hunting. Fun day trip, and was great for the kids," suggests a Jim & Mary's RV Park visitor.

Tips from RVers

Site leveling challenges: Some parks require additional equipment for leveling. "Jack's were fully extended and some wheels off the ground," notes one RVer at Granite Peak RV Resort.

Extended stays discount: Some campgrounds offer reduced rates for longer visits. "Our stay at Turah RV Park and Store was Quiet, tree-lined location. Friendly people. Bathroom and laundry rooms clean and functional," reports a camper.

Electric vehicle considerations: Several RV parks can accommodate EV charging needs. "We also camped in our Tesla, and the park was fully equipped for EV travelers with a 14-50 amp outlet, making it super convenient to charge our vehicle while we enjoyed the great outdoors," mentions a Bernie & Sharon's visitor.
