    Beartooth Lake

    Aptly named campground

    A well named campground as the grizzly bear activities in the campground precluded us actually spending the night in the campground in July of 2015. The ranger actually closed the campground down as we were pulling up, saying poor camper habits with food storage had attracted a sow and cub to the campground. He was going to set up a live trap and hopefully move them to a new home territory. That said, we were able to take a quick look at the campground before being shooed out. Nice, clean, about 20 sites not too close to each other with picnic tables, fire rings, food storage boxes, and vault toilets. We were able to hike around the outside edge of the campground (note the picture of the fresh bear print in the mud) to get to the Claw Lake Trail, an 8 miler that winds up over 9,000 feet past several beautiful named and unnamed lakes, including Claw Lake and Beauty Lake. Carry bear spray and mosquito spray!!

    Shoshone National Forest Crazy Creek Campground

    Great camping near Yellowstone - last tent allowed campground before YNP

    Crazy Creek Campground is a nice wooded campground near the North East entrance to Yellowstone National Park.  Crazy Creek is also the last developed campground as you head to the park that allows for tent camping,  from here to the entrance the campgrounds allow only hard sided camping units due to bear activity. 

    Crazy Creek campground is a 16 unit campground.  Each site has plenty of trees which was great as it allowed my to use my hammock.  Each site has a picnic table and metal fire ring and plenty of room for your tent.  Campground has a vault toilet.  No water is available.  Campground is not ADA accessible.  Bear storage lockers are available as food must be stored in your car or one of the lockers.  Dumpster is available for your trash.  Sites are just $10 a night, but they fill up fast.  A great feature of this campground is the Crazy Creek trail.  A trail from the campground takes you across the highway to the trail,  a very short hike brings you to Crazy Creek falls.

    Basin Campground

    Fun camping, kayaking and fishing!

    My wife and I were able to stay here for 3 nights. The grounds feature vault toilets, campfire rings, food storage lockers, and even a hand pump for water. There is someone who sells firewood at the camp which makes things easy on everyone. The tent site was level and large. There are some good hiking trails but they are open to mountain bikers so heads up! They may get pretty muddy. The kayaking was peaceful. I didn't catch much fishing but that's my fault not the campsites! We were on the Wild Bill Lake.

    Basin Campground

    Beautiful, Clean, Quiet and Natural Environment

    We came into this campground on a Wednesday and picked the best of three open sites. There were a lot of reserved sites, but they were mostly coming in on Friday.

    The site was beautiful and very close to the river (the sound was great). The vault toilets were very clean. The water was available through a easy to use hand pump. The camp hosts had firewood for $5.00 per bundle.

    We were tent camping and the site had a large pad, a place for my hammock, a nice wooden picnic table, and a GREAT fire ring. The sites were all very far apart from each other.

    Reservations:  877-444-6777 or recreation.gov

    This is a beautiful campground and some great hiking or fishing.  All sites are within ear shot of the creek and with the peace of the forest and the songs of the creek you have found peace.  The towering peaks of the Beartooth range is beautiful.

    Itch-Kep-Pe Park

    Beautiful Bird sounds. Fake sites.

    This is a widely dispersed campground. There is a launch for the river. Each site has varying types of picnic tables and fire ring and grill on it. When we came there were some young people partying but they left around 10:30. You can also hear train noises from here. The best part is it's free. Across from our site number 39 late into the night and early in the morning it sounded like there were gunshots going off.

    East Boulder Campground

    Country Time

    Site: 2

    RESERVATIONS NO 

    FCFS 

    FEES: NONE 

    Open all year 

    No water Picnic table, fire ring, pit toilet 

    This campground is located right off East Boulder Road. It could be tent sites or very small RV, van, trailer. One site is right along side the creek which is the best site. The second site has a path to the creek. The toilet is located between the two sites. Needed fly spray for the toilet. Toilet didn't smell the flies were just so BAD. The site next to the creek is totally open, great for solar. The other site is wooded and shady. With so many of the sites in Montana you will have amazing mountain views. 

    Directions: 19 miles S of Big Timber on US 298, then 6 miles East on East Boulder Road County R 205.
