    Eagle Creek Developed Boat Camp

    Nice campground with great hiking oppertunity

    Located in the Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument at river mile 56.0. Eagle Creek is a very popular camping location on the river. The site has two vault toilets and five metal fire rings, several more rock fire rings are also available. Large cottonwoods provide shade and good locations to set up a hammock. Plenty of room to set up tents. Good hiking through a slot canyon is possible. Lewis and Clark camped near here on the other side of Eagle Creek on May 31, 1805.

    Coal Banks Landing

    Great camp along the Upper Missouri River Breaks

    This is an enjoyable campground along the Upper Missouri River Breaks on river mile 41.5. Site has two vault toilets, 13 picnic table, and 9 firer rings. Visit Center provides WiFi. This is a major launch area for floating the Upper Missouri Rive Breaks National Monument. Very friendly camp staff with vast knowledge of the river.

    Evergreen Campground

    Clean, quiet, small, tight sites

    Nice area, shade and trees.  Friendly, helpful host.  Camp sites very, very close together.  Walk out camper door into next sites plug ins and sewer hose.  Very limited space between campers.  No picnic tables or firepits.

    Hill County Beaver Creek Park

    Largest County Park in the Country

    This isn't one campground, its dozens. Beaver Creek is the largest county park in the nation. It technically requires a $55 annual park pass for camping or usage of the park. The pass can be purchased at Stromberg Sinclair in Havre or other locations in Havre. There are two lakes with decent fishing in the park and a lovely stream. Mount Otis has a well-maintained trail to the top, and there is a 3 mile nature trail. I use this park all the time! Perfect for picnics, camping by RV or tent, hiking, fishing and bon fires.

    Fresno Tailwater

    Nice spot for a quick overnight

    This is the best of several boondocking options around the Fresno Reservoir. We were the only ones here on a weeknight (right before the 4th of July). There are several choices, including some with shade under the cottonwood trees you so often find near rivers. There’s also a flat concrete pad that would work well for a big RV. You could pitch a tent here if you wanted to. The access is good - about 2.5 miles from Hwy. 2. The dirt road is a little washboard but no big potholes. Verizon phone service was excellent. You’re right next to the dam outflow so not really a good place for swimming, but it looks like people like to fish here.

    Coal Banks Landing

    Floating that Mighty Mo?

    This site is used almost entirely for people floating the wild and scenic Missouri River past the White Cliffs and the Hole-in-the-Wall. The site has a vault toilet, lots of room for your rig and obviously has river-front access. Bugs can get horrendous here in late summer. It's in the open with few trees, but it is what it is. It's the spot to rest/put-in/take-out on a float.

    Havre RV Park and Travel Plaza

    Pleasant stop on the way to Glacier.

    Havre was our last quick stop on the way to Glacier National Park. This RV park is a small asphalt parking lot next to the convenience store and Conoco gas station. The middle sites are parallel parking for big rigs and back in sites for the smaller trailers or Class C’s. Our 28 ft Class A with tow fit just fine. I think larger rigs would be challenged. The sewer hook up is in the road under our rig so we pulled out slightly and dumped when we left to avoid climbing under to hook up. Paid $58 with an AARP discount. A little high for this park.

    Internet only available at the store. I used the laundry that is more general public vs reserved for campers. There were a couple long term residents and a few seasonal while we stayed. Otherwise, we had nobody around us which made the space maneuvering easy.

    Everything went smooth with staff and check in. The park sits between on Route 2 and the rail yard. Surprisingly, we weren’t othered by any noise.

    We took the day to explore the town. Beneath the street historical tour was a blast back to the past and how the town survived a devastating fire. We toured Fort Assinniboine located 10 miles out of town. More great history and testament to how tough is was on the wild frontier.
