    Welcome to the Sportsman Lodge

    My family and I just purchased the Sportsman Motel in 2021. This was a 2-year process for us by way of Pennsylvania and West Virginia.

    Our journey with the Sportsman Motel in Melrose MT started over 7 years ago. It all began with our oldest son Cody, who was deployed with the Army at the time, wrote me a letter. In his letter, he reflects on the passion he and his brother Marcus (also serving in the Army National Guard) and I have for the outdoors. Growing up in the Appalachian Mountains of West Virginia, I have developed a love of the outdoors for as long as I can ever remember. We have always wanted to go west to Montana. In Cody’s letter, he spoke of a small town in Montana called Melrose and about one of the best Rivers to fish in the country, The Big Hole, running through Melrose. He spoke about staying at the Sportsman Motel. Almost immediately upon his return to the states after his deployment, we booked our trip to the Sportsman Motel.

    We have been coming back every year, multiple times a year, and staying at the Sportsman ever since. We fell in love with the town, the great people of Melrose and of course the World Class Fishing and Hunting.

    In 2018 I approached the previous owners of the Sportsman about buying it. I brought my wife Bonnie out so she can experience what the boys and I have come to love. Bonnie grew up in the Pittsburgh Pennsylvania area and although she had been a city girl at heart, she has gained the love and appreciation of the great outdoors through my own lifetime passion. We have relocated here from Pennsylvania to Montana living our greatest dream and want to help bring the same joy to others.

    No matter what you are in search of — hunting, fishing, camping, or just being one with nature – The Sportsman Lodge in Melrose, Montana is your ideal outdoor paradise and home away from home.

    For fishing, Sportsman Lodge is in close proximity to some of the best and most famous streams in the country. Our rivers are legendary. If you’re looking for fly fishing or trout, there’s nothing better than a stay in one of our cabins on the water.

    The hunting here is as good as it gets anywhere. If you’re after the big game, trophy-class elk, mule deer and whitetail are out there. You’ll also find black bears, moose, bighorn sheep, mountain goats and antelope. If bird hunting and waterfowl are more your style, there are strong sage, sharp-tailed, and mountain grouse, as well as migratory ducks and geese. Melrose is home to a beautiful diversity of habitats and wildlife!

    Sportsman Lodge has accommodations for everyone. Our cozy cabins can serve as your mountainside oasis coming completely furnished with various bedroom options and each with a kitchen, living room and bath. Our cabins by the river offer outstanding access for fishing.

    Our RV park boasts seventeen, full-service hookup spots allowing you to enjoy our Montana views with all of your creature comforts. Or if you’re looking to get a little closer to nature, it doesn’t get any better than camping out under the vast and wild Montana sky.

    Roaming around this part of the country can’t help but impress. In Melrose, while the surroundings are peaceful, the ability to explore the outdoors awakens a strong sense of adventure.

    Melrose is a small town on the Big Hole River. Between our 8 rooms, 6 cabins, 17 RV sites and grass tent spaces, we can suit any traveler looking to experience the best of the outdoors.

    Overview

    Twin Lakes Cabin is located in a scenic evergreen forest in the Beaverhead Mountains of western Montana. It was built in the 1920s to provide housing for trail crews, smoke chasers, timber cruisers and grazing inspectors who worked in the area. Guests have access to a number of recreational opportunities, including hiking and mountain biking in the summer and fall, and snowmobiling, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing during the winter. The cabin is accessible by vehicle during the summer months, and until the snow closes the road. Guests may need to hike, snowmobile, ski or snowshoe up to 12 miles when the access road is closed. The cabin is equipped with a variety of amenities to provide an optimal outdoor experience; however, guests need to bring some of their own supplies and gear.

    Recreation

    A variety of hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding trails exist in the area, including the Big Lake Creek Trail, which traverses four miles of terrain surrounding the lake. The nearby trails also provide access to the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail. During winter months, the trails are popular for snowmobiling, cross country skiing and snowshoeing. Visitors should be prepared for unexpected avalanches. Fishing and non-motorized boating are enjoyed by visitors to Twin Lakes. Anglers might see a variety of trout, as well as arctic grayling and mountain whitefish. Power boats are limited to electric motors only on the lake.

    Natural Features

    The cabin is located in a heavily wooded area at the base of Squaw and Jumbo peaks on the shore of the 75-acre Twin Lakes. It is situated at an elevation of about 7,200 feet in the Beaverhead Mountains, a subrange of the Bitterroot Range that divides Montana and the neighboring state of Idaho. Extensive conifer forests provide habitat for a large elk herd that winters in Idaho and summers in Montana. Marshy glacial valleys in the area constitute some of the best moose habitat in the state. Other wildlife in the area includes mountain goats, bighorn sheep, lynx, marten, deer and black bears (learn more about bear safety).

    Hogan Cabin

    Amazing remote location. Great wildlife viewing, snowshoeing, hiking, etc..

    Spent 3 nights at Hogan Cabin, MT last summer (Aug 2018). I loved the isolation of the location. Up at 7200ft you get a little winded hiking around, but the incredible scenery is worth it. Found a primitive A-frame structure in the woods about a mile from the cabin. Saw several deer and elk feeding in the field near the cabin, as well as a moose in the marsh along the creek. 

    The cabin itself is nothing to jump up and down about. With only 2 sets of bunk beds, my wife and I put the bedding on the floor and made a full sized bed. There's no running water so be sure to bring plenty. 

    There's an vault toilet in the outhouse. 

    There is also a HUGE fire pit with swinging grill for cooking.

    Beautiful!

    Large, flat sites - many of which are right on the water.  Gorgeous views with the lakes nestled between mountains!  Plenty of space between sites.  Great hiking trail.  We didn't fish, but we watched others catch many trout out of kayaks with fly rods.  There were about ten sites (and the cabin) full while we were there over a weekend.  Vault toilets.  No hook-ups.  Long, bumpy road going in and out.

    Well kept, welcoming

    Wanted a place to stay halfway between Glacier and southern Idaho - Sportsman RV is 1 mile off Interstate 15. This place is a gem. The owners are very nice, helped us park the camper. They take great care of this place. It has 10 RV spots, close together but nice and also a log motel and some cabins. When I was in the office there were people reserving for next year - they come fly fishing here every September. Quite hazy with smoke from forest fires when we were here but I can tell it is beautiful, nestled in between Montana mountain ranges. Easy walk to the river for fly fishing access. That seems to be the main activity in this very small town of Melrose. The Hitchin’ Post restaurant is next to the campground. There is even a gate in the fence so you don’t have to walk around to the road.

    Hells Canyon Guard Station

    Gorgeous location, hell to get to.

    The cabin appears to be frequented by regulars. It sleeps 6 (ish), has a wood stove and a propane grill/cooktop, and a fair few canned supplies, games, puzzles, etc . It's not filthy but far from spotless. The problem is getting there. We pulled in a 23ft trailer. Its a 15 mile dirt road, severely rutted in spots. Steep hills, sharp corners and lots of both. I spent 90+ minutes driving in, in fear of not getting back out, then another 90+ minutes getting out. Successfully! Whew!

    While taking the trailer was our mistake, the road would be daunting for anyone used to pavement and I would strongly suggest 4-wheel-drive.

    15 miles off the path

    Overall it was a great campsite. There are currently 17 camping spots with a cabin as well. The campsite is located right on the lake and it’s about a 15 mile commute on a gravel road to get there. If your plan is to stay at the campsite for the duration of your visit I would recommended it. But if you are going to explore the area you have to make the 30 mile round trip in order to get to the main road. It was also busy when we got there (Friday night) all 17 campsites were full. There are plenty of great campsites that aren’t 30 mile round trip on gravel roads. The actual sites itself were nice with picnic tables and fire pits.

    Great spot, very friendly

    This is a great spot in a tiny town south of Butte Montana. They have a couple cabins, several motel rooms and about 10 full hookup, all grass, RV spots. Also a large area for car/tent camping. The grounds are meticulously maintained by the owner and it has nice views of the bluffs and mountains all around it. Walking distance to the restaurant and bar in town if that’s your thing. Quality hookups at each site, and each site has its own trash can. Clean bathrooms and laundry on site. Owners are very present and attentive on site and super friendly. Picnic tables at every site. One shared fire pit out front of the office. It’s in a very small town, with several fishing spots nearby. Very peaceful location. We would stay again.

    A few things to be aware of:

    • All sites are back in, but they are reasonably wide and very long.
    • It is about a mile or two from the interstate which is convenient but you can occasionally hear a large truck pass by.
    • There is a train track nearby, we heard about one train per day in the morning.
    • We were here in July and there were some mosquitos. If you plan to be outside probably bring a citronella candle or bug spray.

    Beautiful, Serene, Off the beaten path

    It is a very off the beaten path, tucked away in the woods, true getaway from the busy city life. Travel south on 278 from Wisdom, MT and take the chance on an 18 mile gravel road to find a place only you see in pictures and read about in magazines. Drive through open cattle ranges and find a beautiful campground nestled up to 2 small lakes connected by a shallow channel. Clear water to see the bottom where it's shallow enough. No motorized boats allowed, so bring your own kayak or canoe and a fishing pole or two to enjoy the refreshing waters at the bottom of the mountains. Even in July, you can see snow atop the mountains on the Montana-Idaho border.

    • Large, open water front spaces to set up "shop"
    • Site 10 had room for 3 tents, 3 SUVs, 1 picnic table + extra side table, fire ring/grill, canoe, chairs around fire and shoreline, laundry lines
    • Not crowded (maybe 5 sites taken when we were there)
    • Bathrooms are clean (but no locks or hand sanitzer...at least the one I used)
    • Water available
    • One bear storage container at front entrance
    • Must pack up and take out your own trash (no bear proof trash cans)
    • Fire rings with grills available

    Beaverhead River RV Park

    Older RV Park used to be a KOA

    We stayed here twice this year, once going North and then headed South for home.  First time they put us in a full hook-up that was to small so I asked for a bigger spot and because about 1/3rd of the spots were empty, they moved me.  Owner was very friendly and willing to find us a better spot.  Second time was on Sunday and the note on door put us in an even smaller full hook-up, despite me asking for a bigger site so I wouldn't have to unhook.  This is one reason for only three stars.  Office was closed and no one answered the phone or returned our call.  The site was totally unacceptable.  Even if I un-hooked there was not enough room to park the pick-up truck.  Left several messages, no response.  We moved to an empty water/electric only site and set up.  An hour later another camper came in and said we were in their spot.  We moved again to another spot hoping no one would claim it.  Still no response from owner.  I guess camp is unsupervised on Sunday.  Maybe owner was out of town.

    Second reason for only three stars:  Camp is older and full hook-up sites are close to each other.  I did not see any 50 amp, only 30 amp.  The openings for dumping are a couple of inches below ground level and the kind you just point the hose down and put a few rocks over to hold it down.  Gravel sites that are mostly level.  

    The Good:  The water and electric only sites in the back (spots 28 to 36) of the park are long and spread out.  I recommend if you can go without having sewer connection, the ones in back (spots 28 to 36) are the best to stay in.  Don't get the ones in front.  Big trees and lots of grass (but watch out for the gofer holes).  Quiet and peaceful night.

    Did not use their restrooms or showers or pool (may not have been open) so no comment.  There is a dump site.  Wifi was 17 mbs but slowed down in the evening.  We use AT&T and got two bars of 5G.

    Beaverhead for one night

    It is in a nice location with old growth trees all around. Bathrooms are good, clean but slow working toilets. We stayed there end of April which is really just the start of the camping season and it was a wet evening. Plan on dirt in your camper because the grounds are not well kept and the gravel pads need a refresh. My big irritation was the dog poop all around our camp spot. We came in at night and did not see it until the next day. Bad maintenance and bad, lazy dog owners!! Would I stay again? Not sure. Not as windy of a location as the Countryside RV Park because of its location and bathrooms are much better. Out of downtown. Nice playground if you have kids. Trees are nice in high summer.

    Great stop over in a cute little town right down the street from a brewery and another fun restaurant “Sparky’s”. The owners were friendly upon our last minute late check in without a reservation at 8:30 PM. The sites were well maintained and they spaced each visitor since the campground wasn’t full, to give each guest their own space.

    I'm giving this four stars as a quick stopover point- nothing against the resort but Dillon isn't a place we could find much to stay longer term for.  We had a really clean, level gravel site- that was a pull through, for $45 a night.  Fair price and as others have said, the park is clean and very convenient.  Our site was an end site and therefore felt pretty roomy.  During our stay the wifi was pretty horrible, so much so I'd say you should plan to bring your own internet connectivity.  Lastly, there is pretty decent shade on most sites.

    Southside RV Park

    Peaceful and spacious RV sites by the creek

    We love this park on the south side of Dillon MT. Located in the neighborhood near campis you can walk to restaurants and the cite downtown area. The sites are spacious and level.

    Get reservations to assure a site. Pull throughs or backins.

    Very clean

    This campground was very clean. Trees and grass and the creek at each of the front sites. Nice laundry and clean bathrooms ans showers. The owner, Janet is always working to make it comfortable. She takes each guest to their site, personally. There are movies to check out, no cost, in the office. It is close to many things in town.

    Great quiet campground

    Friendly management. My family only stayed one night and didn’t use their facilities. When I called to set up the reservation, the manager was busy but called back shortly after. Clean well maintained grounds. Would definitely stay again.

    Awesome campground

    Love this campground very well maintained. The owner is super nice!!! Bathrooms and showers are very clean with a good amount of hooks to hang your towels and clothes on. In the mens room there’s two showers one toilet one urinal and one sink. Overall just a great simple campground it’s small enough to not be so crowded which I love.

    Twin Lakes

    Remote

    The road is pretty long, and narrow. Not advisable for pulling a large trailer. Every time we have went there is only one other occupied site. The lake is for non motorized water crafts only. Perfect for first time swimmers. Very quite.

    Breathtaking and cold

    The mosquitos are terrible so bring lots of deet, and in July it gets to be around 30* F at night so bring lots of extra blankets.

    Sportsman Lodge, Cabins & RV Park

    Oasis in the brown hills

    After driving 5 hours from Glacier National Park through arid ranch land, the Sportsman Lodge was like happening upon an oasis in the desert. Beautifully maintained property with lots of green grass for the pups to walk through. And there are doggie bag stations galore!

    The sites themselves are level on gravel. No pull-throughs, but plenty of space to maneuver. I would have liked a little more space between sites and maybe some shrubbery for a bit of privacy, but that is being picky.

    This area is popular for fly fishing and the Sportsman Lodge is a 7 minute walk from the fishing access on the river.

    Melrose is teeny tiny, so don't expect several restaurants to choose from. There are 2 and one is closed on Sundays.

    Bonnie, one of the owners, is super friendly and helpful. And the free wifi is really strong! And the water pressure is amazing.

    The open skies and no city lights make for great stargazing.

    Overall, highly recommend the Sportsmans Lodge.
