Best RV Parks & Resorts near Pinesdale, MT

Several RV parks dot the Bitterroot Valley near Pinesdale, Montana, offering varied options for motorhome travelers. Black Rabbit RV in Hamilton provides full hookup sites with electric, water, and sewer connections on gravel pads that accommodate big rigs. Jim & Mary's RV Park in Missoula remains open year-round with 30/50 amp service, water hookups, and sewer connections in a well-maintained setting. Granite Peak RV Resort, also in Missoula, features 110 sites operating from May through mid-October with full hookups and big rig access. Sites at many parks have concrete or gravel pads with picnic tables, though spacing can be tight at some locations. "Our spot was a pull thru and super easy to get situated and set up. Level site, picnic table and close to neighbors," noted one Granite Peak visitor, highlighting the practical setup common to RV parks in the region.

Summer brings peak season crowds to RV campgrounds throughout the area, making advance reservations essential, particularly for weekend stays. Cell service varies by location but remains strong near larger towns like Missoula and Hamilton, with AT&T and Verizon typically providing 3-5 bars of service. Most RV parks in the region welcome pets, though specific restrictions may apply. Dump stations are available at several facilities including Black Rabbit RV and Lolo Hot Springs RV Park, while others like Lolo Hot Springs Campground require using off-site facilities. Navigation to some parks requires attention to low-hanging branches and narrow roads, particularly for larger motorhomes. One traveler mentioned needing "jacks fully extended and some wheels off the ground" at Granite Peak, noting that "pulling up on blocks was no problem" but highlighting the importance of leveling equipment when camping in this mountainous region.

    Black Rabbit RV

    Compact but Quiet Spot

    Very full park with mostly long- term guests on gravel pads, no grass. Spots very close together but each site had a picnic table- no grills. Visitors friendly but staff were marginal. Small laundry room with old machines. Convenient location but check- in early during peak season.

    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.

    Lolo Hot Springs Campground

    Lo Lo Hot Springs is Hot!

    Very nice campground across Hwy. 12 in Montana. Campground is ill defined so it feels more like camping out in the woods. Fire pits with picnic tables. 30 amp electric with water. Dump station on site. $38.50 per night or $25.50 with senior discount. Cabins are available and there is numerous tent sites. Pretty nice campground. Across the highway is Lo Lo Hot Springs. Very rustic with a $8.00 entry fee. Inside group tub and outside pool. There is a lodge and bar also on site. We spent 5 days in our 5th wheel at LoLo.

    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

    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!

    Charles Waters Campground

    Quiet camping in the Bitterroots.

    Nice little campground in the Bitterroot Valley. It seemed that there were as many dogs as people in the campground. Sites varied in size and shape and shade. I like the sites on the far side of the loop as they are closer to the creek and away from the dusty road. Water at the spigots was good, but I was a bit concerned that they were placed so close to the vault toilets. There are some pull through sites as well as back in, but since it’s first come, it’s luck of the draw in what you get. I got there around 2 on a Sunday and had 3 sites to pick from. All of the sites were full by 4pm. There are some nice hiking and horseback riding trails across the road, and there is a forest road that goes all the way to the top of the mountains with picnic tables to watch the sunset or sunrise (when the smoke doesn’t cloud the view).

    Quartz Flat Campground

    Hidden Gem

    This campground is AT the rest stop. It's a bit different. If travelers knew about it they would stop and go into the campground for a picnic lunch and it is great to let the dogs walk in the woods, but no one ever does that because they do not realize the National Forest Campground is there... They stop at the rest stop (new redone) and move on. 

    Hardly anyone goes there on loop G. The other Clark Fork side gets some weekenders.  The other loops are on the other side of the highway accessible by a tunnel under the highway and one loop was deactivated a few years ago because of a lack of traffic. One side is right above the Clark Fork River. The other Loop G is on the other side of the highway and has one set of "real toilets" a potable and non-potable/dump water station for filling water tanks and rinsing tanks AND its a nice free dump station. Sites are smaller being built back in the 60's I'm thinking in G, but a few drive throughs on the other side by the river. It's 35 minutes north of Missoula MT. It is Close to trails has a half mile nature trail onsite and river access is close by... If you are traveling, need a really nice campground with few people in the woods, and inexpensive, this is the place... Coming to fish, do some kayaking or rafting on Clark Fork Check. 

    There is some road noise and on Loop G the occasional train next to the campground. The Clark Fork side doesn't have the train but seem louder closer to the road. That does not bother us so no big deal there. All sites are wooded...

    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!
