RangerWe had it mostly to ourselves and It’s so lovely and remote. Can’t hear highway noise, lots of beautiful views and an accessible creek to the front and side of all camp sites. Easy to get into Butte (30 mins) and even like the nearby restaurant (15 mins) called The Hitchin Post!
ScoutThis place was beautiful. We enjoyed our 1 evening and night here. No fresh water, but in the town of Butte you can fill up at a casino/ gas station on Harrison Ave
TravelerWe had a great night stay at this BLM dispersed camping ground. It sits right off Highway 15. Actually we found it by accident. They have beautiful sites by the river, but they go fast though.
We were not able to find any place to deposit, trash or gray water; they do have a place to fill up for potable water. They have picnic tables and fire pits as well as bear boxes for food. Really really lovely. We would come back again for sure!
GuideWe stopped off here for a couple nights. Used the reservoir for fishing. There are a couple boat launches. We had a large new picnic shelter with a picnic table, fire ring. Vault toilets are very clean. Water is available at hand pumps. Newly poured cement pads kept everything clean and free of dirt. Ample views of reservoir from all sites. We did not find highway traffic to be bothersome. Only downside was it was windy at times. Unbelievable amenities for being free.
ScoutNot far off a main road down a well kept gravel road. Tucked away in the trees along the river. Well kept and friendly host. The normal fee ($15) is half-off for Senior Park Pass holders plus a small transaction fee. Camped out in the campground aread along the river with grass and trees.
RangerVery nice small campground on the lake. Has 4 sites with shelters and several without. Hand pump water and vault restrooms. Well maintained and clean. Good all weather gravel access road.
ScoutRight by the river with an easy drive from the highway yet it still feels remote. Very well maintained sites and roads. Highly recommend.
LegendThe reservoir has four or five different campgrounds but this is the only one that has full hook ups. It was $30 a night or $15 per night with the senior America the beautiful pass. No shade, but the sites were fairly level. Far enough away from the freeway that you didn’t have too much noise.
GuideOnly 6 spaces. $15 per night with self pay envelope. Flat paved spots. Several will easily fit a big rig rv. Pit Toilets and a water spigot. Close to highway so, road noise is present during the day. Lots of shade trees and grass.
