"I enjoyed staying here, the hot springs/campground nearby were closed (and for sale) so this was a pleasant suprise and respite. The spaces are far enough apart that you feel like you have privacy."
"We had spot 14, which is an excellent spot with lots of room, easy access to a vault toilet and lovely background noise from the creek. Camp hosts are very welcoming and accommodating."
"Vault toilets are located throughout. Fees are $12 with $6 discount if you have Federal/Natl Park Golden Pass."
"I was camping at a nearby national park site that had a flyer for Camp Sula, saying that if you show the receipt from your stay you can use Camp Sulas shower, laundry facilities and wifi at no cost."
"Children's fish lake. Did not use bath facilities. Looked good from out side. Cabins are log and adorable. Big ponderosa pine. Small store, with restaurant that serves breakfast and lunch."
"Stay here for quick access to Lamar Valley. Be aware of your surroundings, we had a coyote visit us unexpectedly!"
"Right next to the creek, with another small branch cutting through the middle of the campground, the only thing I could hear was the water and later a fire spotter plane overhead."

"There are so many camping areas right off the highway near the Salmon River; we chose this one because even though it's near the road, it's set further down so you don't have to see it."
"Toilets are located across from site 3, between 5/6, across from 12. #7 is low ground camping you walk down to with minimal shade and perfect for hot weather days."
"If your a good walker Montana is for you, the water amazes me at how clear it is but very cold, if your lucky you'll find a hot spring."
"Tucked away and well maintained, we loved this spot! Site 4 was the best with trees for shade and access to the river, but site 2 was also nice!"
"Each site has plenty of space but only distance separates us from other campers. A water pump is by the pay station.
Just down the road is a trail head for hiking."
$45 / night
"I loved the isolation of the location. Up at 7200ft you get a little winded hiking around, but the incredible scenery is worth it."
"This was one of the best places to stay in Montana, electricity and water was a plus, great sites, lake was pristine!"
"I love it everytime I get leave from the navy I go back home and hike and camp everywhere and I haven't hiked any mountain range like the ones in Montana"
"Its very close to the city. So you can walk and leave your camper on the ground."
"Also really great access to the bitterroot valley if you’re into hikin and river activities. Everyone’s really friendly and it’s a good place to crash when you’re out on the road."
TravelerThe campground has water and electricity. It’s a great deal, especially for seniors with the America the Beautiful pass. We paid $12.50 a night. The sites are pretty spacious. The campground sits below the dam with less wind. The host, Tom, was super friendly. He and his wife keep the place clean and tidy.
TravelerWe enjoyed 2 nights here alongside the river with full hookups. The host was very kind and helpful with our questions.
Easy 5 minute walk to town. Great local grocery, bakery, and a few breweries.
GuideExtra 5$ over other local campgrounds because there is water available and trash. Not especially nice or terrible. Very small sites, most with no room for a normal size tent, sites packed on top of each other. Even the few meant for small rvs have little room. Host on site in a nice beautiful and well maintained site, the public sites are not well maintained. Overgrown with weeds, very disappointing. Hosts don’t do much and are unhelpful. Suggest looking for any other CG in the area, there are several
Details: Toilet and trash on site Tight road, don’t tow anything to big On site managers are unhelpful Minimal room for even the average size tent One car per site at mist of them, nowhere else to park Long but easy drive to Darby, minimal amenities. Hamilton only 15 more minutes

GuideWe have always loved coming out here to camp. The mosquitoes can get pretty thick at times so be prepared.
TravelerThe campground owner Libby was very helpfull and nice to us. Its very close to the city. So you can walk and leave your camper on the ground.
GuideI stayed here for one night. It is $5 per night. I had decent Verizon signal. There were at least eight camping areas. While I stayed here about half were full. The camping limit for this area is 14 days. There is a camping host that lives here so you cannot overnight park for free. There is river access. The only plot that I found that I could use my hammock at was plot 8. Just because of the lack of strong trees.
Guide7 spots off the beaten path, small creek lehmi. On the Lewis and Ckark trail. Bathroom is ADA.
