The 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.
We had a lovely site that was close to the Wise River. Even with a full camp, the ambient sound of the river shielded the sounds of people talking or kids playing. The bathroom facilities were clean. Most campsites had some shade for either sitting or having a tent. Most people were in self sufficient RVs since there are not hookups. The campground also had a water pump with clean and very cold water.
Great campground with some FCFS sites (loop A and 1/2 of loop B) and some reservable (1/2 of loop B and all of loop C).
There are no campsites directly on the lake, but there is a view of it from a few of the sites and it's an easy walk through the CG to get to it.
Lots of wildlife around and paved road to and through the CG
We spent a night here in June. We left a night early because a hard rain came in, but we had fun while we were there. The campground is very clean and quiet. Our kids loved the winding roads for their push bikes. The only thing we wished for was a dock, so we could easily fish with young kids.
Spent two nights here along the river. Nice Camp store with everything you would need and it’s close to town.
Always love our stays here and Sharron the host is amazing and a hard worker. Takes great pride in her areas
This spot was Amazing! Our room was stunning. So charming, spacious, cozy, Fun, and had everything we could ever need. On top of the wonderful accommodations, the STAFF! The staff and owner went Above and Beyond for us when my boyfriend left behind a beloved baseball cap in our room. Totally our fault, and we figured we’d never see the sentimental item again. On a whim, I called Travellers Rest and they couldn’t have been nicer. They found the hat and mailed it from Darby to Bozeman and we had it back in no time. It was so kind and truly showed the heart of this cool spot. We would Love to stay here again when in the area!
This is a good campground and love the paved campsites for RV.  Very clean and camp host was very friendly. We will be back!
Snagged a FCFS site at this wonderful Montana state park after reading reviews. So glad I did. Such a nice campground, nice neighbors. Lots of people out on the lake boating. There is a boat launch in the campground. Snow covered peaks still visible in late June.
Not a lot of shade due to beetle infestation. But wasn't an issue in June. All boats, including inflatable kayaks need to be inspected at a Montana inspection station before launching in the water
I loved it here. Wish I'd stayed longer than one night.
beautiful well kept campground right on a lake. loop A is first come first served, B&C are reservations only. $17 a night
I stayed 3 nights in July- They were very helpful with where to go in the area, the showers/baths were brand new- clean. They had activities over the weekend- music over the weekend. Trees created privacy. Right on the river.
So close to a five star campground if it were not for the swarming mosquitoes anywhere in the shade. Grounds were well taken care of, owners so very nice and helpful, showers and restrooms spotless and free, great little laundry room, and cute gift shop. Lots of boat launches up and down river for kayaking.very peaceful. One down side was the lack of nice swimming area in the campground. Spots were side by side so little in the way of privacy. Wi-Fi was weak but worked. No cell service for Verizon. Nearest town with groceries etc. is in Salmon so stock up before you go.
Philipsburg Bay Campground is a beautiful large campground right on the shore of Georgetown lake. This 69 site campground sits among large pine trees with campsites nicely spread apart. The large trees give you plenty of shade throughout the day. This paved campground is split up into three loops, two of which are first come first served, the other can be reserved. The area also has a day use area and boat launch. Cost is $15 per night. Campground has trash service, and water is available during the summer season. I visited in November so no water for me. Each site has a picnic table and metal fire ring. Several vault toilets are located in each loop. Bear lockers are spread out through out the campground for food storage.
Saw a moose everyday we were here. No beach area nearby, only access to the water is the boat launch area by loop A. The water in the bay is a bit gross, but you can’t beat the views.
We were supposed to stay here two nights while fly fishing but ended up leaving one night early. We have never ever witnessed bullying and aggression from hosts like we witnessed here. Stay away! The owner admitted his employee over stepped his bounds and was out of line, but tried to justify it by what had happened a day earlier when we weren’t even there. Totally unprofessional and scary.
We were in the area to fly fish and just needed a basic place to park our RV with power. We left the first location we were at due to extremely unprofessional and dangerous employees. We drove down the road to Traveler’s Rest, a little frazzled from our recent experience and were very relieved that they were friendly, had availability and the facility was clean and nice. We do many activities in this area and will return to Traveler’s Rest again!
From the minute we arrived we loved this place and decided to cancel other reservations and stay here
We stayed in spot number 12. Full hook ups. Would have preferred to stay closer to the river but we were told that it wasn’t available, but I never saw anybody park there. It would’ve been cheaper, and I didn’t need for hook ups. They were polite and nice, they ask you not to put out mats outside your camper because they are trying to regrow the lawn.
We bought our trailer a couple miles away, since we drove from Washington we wanted to stay in our new to us trailer. We called they were very friendly and got us a beautiful site by the river.
Great spot. The people here are very nice. There was plenty of room for our 36’ toy hauler. Dogs were happy to play in the creek.
This is not a fancy campground but we loved it. It’s on the Bitterroot River with the Bitterroot Mtns behind you and the Sapphire in front. The spaces are on the grass with full hook ups. They have a little store for groceries and Sunday’s and sell propane. The nights are dark and star gazing is wonderful. Hamilton MT is 2 miles away with all amenities and if you like craft beer, there are two breweries. There are also some sites right on the River but they are not full hook up.
Well worth the drive and the short hike up the mountain. Beautiful views from all around the tower. Very peaceful and relaxing. The tower sleeps 2 with a bed platform. Items provided are a coleman latern, a 2 burner propane stove, a wood stove for heat, a bow saw, and an axe.
There is an outhouse on site along with a firepit.
Most spots are nicely spread out. The creek is one of the further reaches of the Missouri River. Walking distance to the rustic Elkhorn Hot Springs Resort where you can swim and get a bite to eat. A short drive to crystal park where you can dig up quartz and amethyst. We got snow on Labor Day weekend (still Summer!), so check the forecast.
This is a cozy little campground about 20 minutes outside Salmon, ID. It's located directly on the Salmon River. It's a well-run site, is clean and has full hookups, laundry, a store, etc... If you're traveling north along the Salmon River, it's a good place to spend the night before heading up over the pass towards Lolo and Missoula, MT. No cell service, but serviceable WiFi, and its location on the river is excellent for anglers and those looking to enjoy the river. Spaces are a little tight, and there are definitely other boondocking sites along the river in this area, Wagonhammer provides a nice spot for those looking for the comforts of home while nestled in the wilderness. It's a quiet, calm, and safe place for travelers staying in everything from tents to enormous RV's.
Right on top of the highway, you definitely get some road noise here. The trees are pretty thin (maybe not good for hammocks), but there are a lot of them which provide a bit of privacy. The restrooms needed to be cleaned when I was there, but it had just been a busy weekend. No Georgetown lake access from the campground, but there is lake access right across the street at the day use area. You’ve got the ususal picnic tables and fire rings and some sites also have grills. Watch carefully as not all sites have a level place to put a tent. You are only 11 miles from Philipsburg where you can get a shower and a beer in which ever order you want.
Nice campground between Philipsburg and Anaconda along hwy 1. Less than 20 sites, it was clean and compact, but still afforded each site some separation from other sites. The trees have been thinned due to the invasive beatle kill, but new trees are growing. Even though you are close to the road, it’s not terribly loud, especially if you can get a site towards the back. I thought the water tasted exceptionally good from the spigots. You are close enough to the lake for water sports and there are some nearby ghost towns to explore.
What an unbelievable place. Found this place on a total random pick. I was actually a little concerned about the cell/WiFi ability with being so potential remote. When we booked our RV spot with Porter he mentioned that Verizon cell service wasn’t very good but they did offer free WiFi which was extremely important as my wife needed it for work. When we arrived we found zero cell service but the WiFi was a savor. Now depending of what your here for no cell and WiFi could be just fine, I surely enjoyed the seclusion and being disconnected from the world.
We stayed in site #2 pretty close to the lodge which I think helped with the WiFi signal. The sites are large and easily fit our 28’ trailer and truck. Definitely could fit any size class A rig. There are full hookups at each site 20, 30, and 50amp at each site as well I believe. Not sure if you can get any closer to the river. The back of the trailer was probably less than 10 ft. to the river. Outstanding view.
The fishing was spot on, right on the river you don’t have to even drive anywhere if you don’t want. They also offer kayak rentals. Unfortunately I didn’t realize how warm, calm, and popular the river was. Next time we come back we will definitely float the river.
If there was really anything they could add, would possibly be something for kids to do. Just as a family of four with a 3 and 6 year old, they can only fish so much.
But over all 5 star, unfortunately this place won’t stay a hidden gem for much longer, can’t wait to come back. A huge thanks to Porter again!
