Best RV Parks & Resorts near Stanford, MT

Several RV parks operate near Stanford, Montana, with Mountain Acres RV Park and Campground in Lewistown providing full hookups including 50-amp electric service from May through October. Dry Wolf Campground near Stanford accommodates RVs year-round but offers no hookups. Fergus County Fairgrounds provides RV sites with water, electric, and sewer connections, while Ackley Lake State Park Campground has basic RV sites without hookups. Most parks can handle larger rigs, though Dry Wolf and Thain Creek have more limited space for oversized motorhomes. "Sites are big. Park struggles with emptying garbage and dog waste containers in a timely manner," noted one visitor about Mountain Acres.

For RV travelers planning routes through central Montana, many campgrounds operate seasonally, with Aspen Campground and Spring Creek Campground closing during winter months. Dump stations are available at Mountain Acres, Fergus County Fairgrounds, and Kiwanis Park in Lewistown, which offers free RV parking for up to 10 nights with water access and restrooms. Pet policies vary between locations—most parks allow pets, though Spring Creek and Thain Creek prohibit animals. Access roads to some campgrounds include gravel sections that may be challenging for larger rigs. Between Hobson and Lewistown, cell service becomes inconsistent, especially at more remote locations like Thain Creek where one camper mentioned "the last 30 miles or so are dirt roads and I wouldn't want to try it in most sedans (or an RV)."

    Many Pines Campground

    Really get away

    This campground is in the mountains. No phone service so you can really get away from everyday life. It is in the lewis and clark national forest so help isn't too far away. There should also be onsite caretakers. You will find running water and outhouses. The creek is nearby as well as great hiking spots. It is just below showdown ski resort. It is a favorite of ours.

    Thain Creek

    Thaine creek campgound

    This is a nice back in the woods campground with spots right on the creek. Our spot was 4 nice table on the creek with lots of sound. A lot if shade. Semi secluded from other campsites. The fire pits are really high so standing up is required for heat. Need chainsaw to gather wood. Lots of birds in the area. Lewis and Clark national forest. Highwood mountains. Lots of potholes drive with care.

    Aspen Campground

    Close to Memorial Falls

    This campground was close to Memorial Falls which we wanted to hike the next day. The setting is wooded and right off scenic Highway 89. The fee for our site #6 was $5 plus $5 for extra vehicle. We were able to fit a small SUV and our pop up truck camper. There were only 6 sites here and we were the only ones here in midweek in late September 2020. There was a clean vault toilet, picnic table and barbecue stand. Simple basic campground near activities.

    Grasshopper

    Nice Campground in the Castle Moutains

    Lewis and Clark National Forest Grasshopper Campground is a nice campground in the Castle Mountains. As you enter this campground you find a trail head to the left and then a picnic area to the right. The campsites start right after the first of two vault toilets for the campground. At the beginning of the campground loop, right behind the registration box you will find the hand pump for the campground. A creek runs right through the middle of the campground. One nice feature of this campground is once the campground gates are closed and locked, you can still drive to sites 1 and 2 as they are before the closure gate, so as long as you can still drive up the road you can camp. Each site has a picnic table and a fire ring. I did notice at least one site also had a BBQ grill in addition to the fire ring. Sites are $10 per night with a 16 day stay limit.

    Fergus County Fairgrounds

    Fairgrounds camping

    Full hookups for $38. Sites are average size. I have a 38-ft travel trailer and I had to unhook to fit in the space. The sites are not incredibly level. But for an overnight stop it works great. Easy in and out

    Many Pines Campground

    Private campsites!

    This was a comfortable campground for RVs and tents. Our 5th-wheel is 28 feet long and fit nicely in the space. Some bigger ones may have trouble fitting into the spaces. All campsites have fire pits and picnic tables and are somewhat private. Many are on a two-tier level and actually have steps with railings to go down or up to the picnic table and fire pit. There is a water with pump handle and a couple pit toilets, but that’s it! Plan to drive a long way if you forgot anything! It is close to the highway making it easy access, but you do get some highway noise at some spaces. There is a campground host, but that person was gone two out of the three days we were there.

    Ackley Lake State Park Campground

    Adequate

    This was a one night pass though. There are lean-to's with picnic table and fire ring. Vault toliets, no water. No trees and the other campsites are very close. When the wind is blowing you take the brunt of it since there is not trees.

    Newlan Creek Reservoir

    Love it, but impossible to find a spot.

    You must be there mid-week to get the paid camping spots. The fishing is great and it's a wonderful family friendly lake.
