  Lake Alva Campground

  Pretty campground

  Pretty campground. Saw lots of deer running around. Pit toilets were clean and sites were nice. Enjoyed having a fire and it was free in the off season.

  Beavertail Hill State Park Campground

  I’d take a pass...

  …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.

  Lost Moose Meadows Campground

  Awesome! Great views!

  Our stay at Lost Moose Meadows Campground was perfect! What a beautiful location in Lincoln, MT. It’s the perfect place to camp and hit the trails on an ATV or side by side. The wife and I, along with our puppy, spent 3 days and 2 nights in early October. The campground is well maintained, every site has hookups, a fire pit and plenty of room for privacy. The restrooms/showers are very accommodating, clean and smelled good. The wife thought they were the best she had the pleasure of utilizing! Our hosts, Matt and Nicole Simpkins, were a pleasure. If you are going to RV in Lincoln, MT, I would definitely recommend this campground. They’re prices are cheap and even offer a military discount.

  Seeley Lake Lolo Campground (MT) — Lolo National Forest

  Beautiful campsites next to the lake!

  The campsites are big and spacious. Even though the sites are open, they still feel private thanks to the natural layout and surrounding trees. The lake is incredibly clear and beautiful. One of the highlights of our stay was the stunning sunrise over the water—waking up to those colors reflecting off the lake was absolutely breathtaking. There was only a few campers when we were there. Warning: there are bears in the area. We didn't see any, but saw some evidence of them.

  Lake Alva Campground

  Great Camping Spot - Buys end of Season

  Great camping spot. We camped over on a Friday night at the end of September. Free because it was out of the normal season, but because it was the last sliver of summer, it definitely filled up. However, they only had the first loop open (group and second loop of sites were closed). Being out of normal season, trash was all locked up but not a big deal. 

  Lake was spectacular and beautiful, would recommend!

  Happy campers

  We arrived late and only stayed one night but this place is very well run and has everything we needed. Convenient and a nice place to stay. Long term or passing through it’s a good choice for the Missoula area.

  Missoula KOA Holiday

  Only game in town

  The Missoula KOA appears to be the only game in town.  I guess that is why they can charge a premium price and leave you with two choices, take it or leave it.  Only problem is we could not find another place so we "took it".

  This is a big and busy campground.  Lots of good things about it.  For example, for a premium price, you can get a site with your own private dog run.  Two older but OKay hot tubs and a heated swimming pool.  Bicycle and other stuff rental.  Everything from tent sites, cabins, small full hook-up sites to large spacious premium sites.  Despite some of the bad reviews, the staff was very friendly to us and, because of no parking for our Tesla, they were able to move us to a better site.  WARNING:  You are not allowed to plug in any electric car.  We were warned that if we plugged in our Tesla, we would be fined and asked to leave the park immediately.  The Tesla supercharger was less than two miles away so no problem for us.  Wifi was great.  34 mbs.  AT&T was 2 bars 5G.

  The BAD:  Very busy.  Many days in summer they are 100 per cent booked.  Make reservations early and be specific what you need.  Be ready to pay a premium price, even for tent camping.  Camp is old but well kept.  Bathrooms are clean but very old style and shower stalls are very small and not handicapped friendly.  Surrounded by lots of older double-wide's.  Some well kept and some not so well kept.  Not friendly to electric cars (see warning above).  Several times during our stay they paused their golf cart in front of our Tesla,  I assume making sure we did not plug in.

  Lost Moose Meadows Campground

  Second visit to this great campground

  This is our second visit to lost moose meadows, again it was an awesome experience! The owners are very down to earth wonderful and eager to assist with whatever you may need. I look forward to visiting with them with each visit. Beautiful space very spread out and restrooms/shower facilities very clean and well kept. campers are situated to where they are not right on top of each other, in-fact are very generously spaced apart. It is close to the community of Lincoln Mt and there are ample opportunities to recreate in the vicinity. Alway looke forward to returning.

  Jocko Hollow Campground

  Sweet spot by the creek

  Old lady was sweet to us, I saw the reviews about her being not so sweet but she was nice and got us in last minute. The gentleman brought us a whole tractor full of wood and was nice as well. Trees were down like other reviews stated, they mentioned they had a massive storm. Not something I feel they should be judged for, they were concerned about my kids and asked them to keep away from the left side because of that.

  Lost Moose Meadows Campground

  Roomy sites with great views.

  I recently stayed two nights at Lost Moose,  Newer park with lots of space in-between sites.  Reservations online was simple.  I arrived after the office was closed, but had an email with instructions on how to complete the check in.  Great view of the surrounding mountains as the park is in an open meadow.  I will definitely stay here again.

  Town of Drummond Campground

  Cheap. Smaller, always has availability

  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.

  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.

  Great and quiet campsite

  Nothing too wild about this site, but nice views and relatively quiet. Sites are along a small side road that Patel’s off the main road, with a few pretty clean pit toilets. We saw one spigot as well. Each site had parking, picnic table, and fire pit. Campsites on the creek side butt right up to the bluffs above the creek, so make sure to keep little ones and dogs close at hand! Very close to the welcome creek trailhead which is definitely worth an afternoon - although be warned, welcome creek trail is not super popular and this will require some bushwhacking. As well, there is a pretty sketchy single-log “bridge” you must traverse if you’re still in a high flow season. The suspension bridge over rock creek definitely has a great view though and is worth a look at!

  Lots of fire wood right now?

  Quiet during the week, I had the place to myself. They have been working on it taking out timber. Brush piles all over the place. 2 sites still closed. But still a nice place.

  Beautiful Campground

  This place is just beautiful and well maintained. Everything was clean including the picnic table. Plenty of room in the shower. Hot showers and clean bathroom. The office has a Cracker Barrel feel with all sorts of Knick Knacks and even supplies for sale.

  Willow Creek Campground

  Pay sites and free dispersed area both

  The 6 miles between where the pavement ends and when you reach the main paid camping area is so washboarded, I thought I was going to lose my mind. But we and our 26ft class c survived with no broken bits. 

  The main camping area is nice, but pricey in my opinion at $18/night. Each spot is along the water and comes with a nice flat pad to park on, fire pit, picnic table, and shade structure. There are pit toilets as well. No other amenities. We chose to keep going, mainly because $18 felt like too much money. The road is not so washboarded when you leave the campground, and we did ok driving around the lake for about a mile until we found one of the free dispersed sites. No amenities here, of course, other than some home made rock fire pits. Each spot is really private and segregated from the next spot. 

  The lake was nice and cool and refreshing to swim in when we arrived on a hot July day. No cell service here. The ATT phone had a bit of service, and with the cell booster was even able to stream. The Verizon phone had nothing. Lots of mosquitoes here, swarms of them at dusk when you’re trying to enjoy the beautiful sunset.

  They accommodated us last mint

  This is a cute little camp site. We were right next to the river which was amazing. But some of the sites are for permanent residents, which feels weird. They have a laundry room, showers and bathrooms. Not the cleanest. But do the trick. A little road noisy. But loved the attention to the flowers and the grounds.

  Missoula KOA Holiday

  Does not allow any electric vehicle to even be on their property

  We wanted to camp (not charge, just park the car and camp) and once they found out we have an electric car they would not allow us to even come on the property. It does not mention this anywhere.

  Missoula KOA Holiday

  Hostile. Attacked me in front of my kids

  This is Steve at the Missoula KOA. I have seen him being unnecessarily aggressive and yelling at clueless campers before. So when he aggressively chased and swerved in front of my brothers car WITH my kids in it for accused speeding I stopped and watched from a distance. When I heard him starting to yell I intervened. You don’t yell at, towards, or around my kids. I told him to back off and he refused. He only got angrier and louder. Granted, I yelled back but we eventually parted ways. I returned to my RV to get out of wet clothes and immediately went to the office looking for a manager. They said he has been notified and should be calling me soon. On my way back to my site I saw Steve pull up to my RV where my Wife, kids, and brother were. He came there looking for a fight and I could hear him yelling at my wife and brother from down the street. That’s when I STARTING YELLING AT HIM TO GET AWAY. I told him multiple times(not on video) to go to the office and get a manager. He only got angrier. Unknown to me at the time, he reached and attempted to pull out his gun multiple times. If it wasn’t for his loose pants catching the gun and co-worker showing up, I’d be dead. The manager never called. He never had the intention to call and smooth things over to make us feel at ease for the night. After two hours I called the office. They said“he should call soon”. I needed action taken that night so I had to file charges with the police. My poor kids were absolutely terrified at this point. I didn’t hear from the manager until the next morning when they kicked me out for yelling at their employee. All they did was defend him. Even after they reviewed video with law enforcement. Good thing I was already leaving. My kids were so scared and did not feel safe there. Do yourself a favor and go through the reviews. This isn’t an isolated incident.

  Outstanding

  Matt and Nichole are wonderful owners and host. The campground is large and quiet. It is big rig friendly, which is a bonus for us. It’s a perfect place to camp, fish, sightsee and just enjoy being outside. I would give it 10 stars if I could!

  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
