Best Dispersed Camping near Stanford, MT
Belt Creek on Hughesville Road offers several dispersed camping sites along forest roads near Stanford, Montana. The area features established pull-offs with fire rings directly adjacent to Belt Creek. Sites are accessible via drive-in access on well-maintained gravel roads suitable for most vehicles. While popular even mid-week, the area typically has available sites, particularly for those willing to explore side roads beyond the main access route.
The sites provide no amenities or facilities—no drinking water, toilets, trash collection, or hookups. Visitors must pack out all waste. As described in feedback on The Dyrt, "You can park right on the stream, there are fire rings, and man is it quiet!" Fire restrictions may apply seasonally, though fires are typically permitted in existing rings. Most sites accommodate both tents and RVs, though larger rigs should scout locations first. The standard 14-day camping limit applies to all dispersed sites in the area.
