    Welcome to our campground! We have a variety of options that should suit just about anyone. We are near Yellowstone National Park as well as Bozeman, MT which offers all types of recreational opportunities e.g. hiking, fishing, climbing, skiing, cycling and running trails.

    VanGoBoon is the perfect "Pull-in for the Night" as well as week-long stays! Most of our sites are SELF-CONTAINED. We have 2 sites that have electric and water hookups. (20,30,50amp)

    On site we have horseshoes, frisbee golf, and corn toss. We mostly offer dry campsites for overnight stays for vans. Most sites are on concrete slabs so they are level and the property has grass areas with trees as well.

    FYI: Great site if you like trains! An important part of Montana’s commerce is transportation by rail so there will be some highway and train noise.

    Private spots between trees but near freeway for easy access. Our 2 horses have been a favorite with young campers along with the open yet private campsites! We look forward to welcoming you!

    Showers are for cabin rentals only.
