We offer space to park or pitch your tent. I've been at this for 13 years, so there's not a lot I haven't seen. BYO sleeping arrangement.
We have a hot shower and restroom facilities, which right now is a bright blue porta potty. It is serviced each Monday.
Go-Fast campers are just up the road. We've hosted many.
Car campers and vans are welcome as well.
I don't do homeless camps or man-camps.
Yes, I've seen it all!
*A NOTE ABOUT YOUR DOG* Don't surprise me with them. We are animal lovers, but this is a working farm. They must be ON LEASH at all times and you are expected to clean up after them. This includes poop and hair. Remember, I've seen it all!
Farm=mud & manure so it smells like a farm.
Located on a historic farm just minutes from town. We have lived here all of our lives and work the land we live on.
Our farm includes 2 antique shepherd's wagons, a cabin, which are listed on Airbnb.
Serenity Sheep Farm Stay and The Wool Mill.
The space
This listing is for up to 3 people. Let me know if there are more than that in your party. $10 for each additional person. Please don't surprise me with your pets. We are pet-loving people, but this is also a working farm. I need to know in advance.
We have 2 antique shepherd's wagons for rent as well as a cabin. This tent space is in a field that is shared with them. There is one outhouse and a propane, heat-on-demand shower house as well as a fire pit. All are shared spaces. This tent space is a field on a farm. We have lots of farm animals wandering about. The chickens do roam. We also have Richardson's ground squirrels, more commonly known as gophers, who can dig holes and tear up the ground. With all of that said, we are not a campground per se. We only allow 2 tent guests at a time, so this is not like a large commercial campground. You will share a fire pit with any other guests here on the farm, if there is no burn ban in effect.
We are 8 miles from Belgrade and Yellowstone International Airport, 10 miles from i-90 and 20 miles from downtown Bozeman.
$25 fee to pick up your dog poop!
Quiet, private, not a campground. It's a working farm.
20 minutes from Bozeman.
Guest access
You'll be sharing a composting outhouse and or port-potty and shower house with other guests.
Other things to note
Our bedtime is 9:00 pm. Some days earlier. We realize travel plans change and late arrivals are a part of that. It's common for guests to come in late, so I can give you easy, specific directions to the place in that event. Past 9:00 pm, we sleep! :-)
I've found it best to lay it all out for guests so they know what is expected of them. Someone is always here if you need anything and we are happy to assist, but there's nothing we can do about the weather.
The first wagon on the left on your way in is a farm store. Be sure to check it out and see what all we do in the wool mill.

This site is technically just a walk to your tent site. There are places to park, so if you have a van you can go stealth and park and sleep here. There area 6 parking spots and 1 handy capped spot. Of these really only the one right next to the ADA spot is level enough for van sleeping. (This is where we parked.). There was one other person sleeping in the lot near us. The other people were tent camping at the designated tent spots. There are 3 tent spots.

Small campground scatter along the lake, boat ramp and launch in good shape. Set in the mountains around White Sulphur Springs with WSS easily accessible if you forget something. No cell reception and your TVs won't work so better bring DVDs if you can tear yourself away from the great fishing and fantastic scenery. Cool nights around a campfire looking out on the moonlit lake - for me the only way to get any better is to have the place all to myself ;)

I went just overnight to go watch the metor shower. I camped in a tent. Deer wandered into the campground throughout the night and morning. You can hear logging creek moving from no matter where you are. The road was a lil rough with the washed out gullies in the road with the cattle guards. But I overall loved it.
Traveler
Great Playground, close to tent sites. Nice staff and great coffee and beautiful setting!

I rolled into this place because White Sandy BLM was closed on Nov 1. This CG looks to stay open year round because it has a boat launch. The water was turned off and the main bathhouse was closed for the season. Two pit toilets remain open. The electric service was still on for the sites. The tent only sites were not suitable for van camping and require a walk to the tent site. I used the RV site and about half of them a siamese type sites with gravel pads. I was the only one here so this didn’t matter. Cell service on Verizon is one bar 3G so I set up my starlink.
Guide
We were able to get a site for the night in June only because it was a Thursday night. I was told it books up early for weekends by reservation. We got a tent site (parked in lot, walked to site maybe 50 feet). It was perfect with shade and right next to the water. Many sites had little or no shade, though. My son loved finding a few toads in the water. The deer seemed to have a route right next to our site and came out by the water in the evening. It was beautiful. Many places to walk around and explore.

This was a lovely spot with lovely care takers. The scenery was beautiful. The airport and train crossings are distant enough that we could not really hear them. The night before we arrived we had been camping in Wyoming so the shower was quite glorious (6’1” guy was able to stand up in it comfortably). The hostess (LaVonne) was cleaning the composting toilet when we arrived, and while the out house it sat in was warm in the summer, it just means one is less likely to spend time in there on their phone. It was also quite the improvement over the pit toilets we had used elsewhere and did not smell at all. We had plenty of space to set up our tent and we felt comfortable leaving it set up to eat at one of the local spots in the nearby town (~15 min away). The animals provided a nice background hum of life. This stop has been the highlight of our trip and we would definitely recommend it to other campers who are looking for a retreat or a quiet place to stop during their travels. If we are in Montana again this will definitely be one of our stops.

Dry Wolf is a beautiful area of Montana. 4-Wheeling seems to be popular in the area. There are lovely streams, nice mountains and cool cliffs all near Stanford. It's a great get-away in North Central Montana.

Chinamen's Campground has 30+ sites however most of the sites are small and many tent campers may have a hard time finding a spot to pitch a tent in many of the sites. Good sites fill up fast. Campground has a boat launch area. An ADA spot and Vault toilet is available.
Ranger
Good campground for RVs, gets windy and not much shade for tent campers.
Guide
This site has extensive day-use picnic areas and a regular campground. This is a totally open site with no shade or privacy. If you don’t have a boat and don’t want to BBQ, there’s not much to do, but the views are pretty all around. Went here with a local. If you’re visiting Montana from out of state there are, IMHO, much more beautiful and Montana-y options.
RangerAll sites have close access to water. Nice RV sites and some good shade sites for tents.
Ranger
Nice area above shoreline with some shade trees for tents and enough flat area to pull a camper in. Good for day trips, group gatherings too.
Ranger
Day use area is nice. Good variety of camp sites for both RV and tent, boat dock charges fees but is convenient and popular.

Due to the piles of trash, etc., it appeared as if several people had moved in permanently to this camp site. And by the looks of their faces when I pulled up, they were not pleased to have someone else there.
No big deal, I just went to my lot and set up my tent and planned to keep to myself.
The mosquitos were unreal.
The noise never stopped. Not only from the highway and train tracks close by, but from the other “residents” of the campsite. And the constant sound of coyotees.
The guy in the tent across the lot from mine made me feel particularly uncomfortable. Like I was being watched the whole time. Thought I heard him coming out and walking in my direction several times in the late evening. And from the sound of his grunts at around 1:30am that told me he was still very much awake and active, I decided it might not be the safest place for me ti fall asleep.
So I threw my tent in the back of the my car and I drove 30 minutes to the nearest Walmart parking lot and slept there.
ScoutIn response to Adrian S, who posted similarly under another name on Google....some facts are being left out. She stated “after reading the rules about tents” the hosts tried to “extort money from them”. If they read the rules they state camp sites are for one camping unit with one tent allowed for children 17 and under. When asked about the tent they initially said it would be occupied by adults, when told them about the rules they stated there would be a ch8ld joining them....so it was dropped. In addition, we wouldn’t ask them to pay more for another adult tent, they would be asked to obtain a second site. As for stepping in front of her husband....he was speeding throughout the campsite (the two were obviously having a disagreement, but the speeds he was traveling in his anger, could have hurt someone. He did almost hit me as I tried to get him to slow down, but definitely didn’t “throw” myself in front of him....I had to move out of his way....and she wasn’t in site of the occurrence. When she came walking past I asked if that was her husband and when she confirmed it was, I told her he needed to slow down in the campground and she proceeded to start cussing at me...to which I responded “no problem, I’ll just call the Sheriff.
I normally don’t respond to criticism...if I’m in the wrong and/or true facts are stated.

Recently renovated, campground is really clean and spread out. Little to no shade for tent campers and bugs get horrible. Small store makes for easy extended stays.
Traveler
Well laid out campsites with plenty of space. Well maintained picnic tables and fire rings with designated tent space. Bathrooms are clean, and campsites are clearly marked with seclusion from other guests.
Legend
Upper Toston Dam Campground and Boat launch is one of two campground in the BLM Toston Dam Recreation Area. The Lower Toston Damp Campground is located a half mile below Toston Dam. The Upper Toston Dam Campground features four cover camp picnic table sites with metal fire rings. All four of the sites sit at the edge of a large parking area. Between the covered sites and the Missouri river is a grassy area that tents can be set up in. The grassy area slopes down towards the river, this could make finding a level spot for your tent difficult depending on the size of your tent. One could also pitch their tent on the edge of the parking area. The site has a single vault toilet. A small boat launch with a dock is available as well. Their is not water or trash service at this campground. This campground will be a quiet location as it is 5 miles from the highway, the only noise will be from water running over the dam and any trains that come down the tracks located on the other side of the river. This site also benefits from not having any cell phone service.
Ranger Review of Liquid I.V.™ Hydration Multiplier Passion Fruit Flavor
I have been trying out Liquid I.V. for several days now and I am quite pleased with the result. Just drinking one of these a day is keeping me well hydrated, far more so than drinking the same amount of water or other sports drinks during the day. Today I tried out the Passion Fruit flavor which taste great. I would give the flavor 5 starts, all though I do prefer the Lemon-Lime flavor.
TravelerFirst camp we stayed at on a week long trip to Montana. We came on a weekday, so hardly any one there.
Ranger
Nice BLM campground, no beach/swim area on-site, have to walk .5 mile trail to Clarks Bay day use for swimming. Great for RVs, no shade for tents (trees are too young and provide no shade yet). Boat ramp area is small.
TravelerCleanest and nicest bathrooms I’ve seen in a long time!! We stayed in tent spaces which they were working to update with water and electricity, both of which worked for us! A storm came through and it was windy for a bit, but besides that beautiful skies and great weather. Respectful campers, and right by water access!
ScoutNO PRIVACY IF THE SITE IS FULL. THERE IS A FRIENDLY DEER THAT CAME OVER TO ENJOY THE SALT AND VINEGAR CHIPS MY HUSBAND WAS EATING HAHA. A NICE AREA TO PITCH A TENT IF U DONT WANT TO LEAVE THE LAKE FOR A COUPLE DAYS. NOT A PLACE TO ENJOY THE QUIET AND SOLITUDE
Legend
This is a nice campground just outside of Townsend Montana. Good information signs about the area and the Lewis and Clark journey. A nice fishing pond is available for children 14 and under. Campground is on the edge of the Missouri river. The only draw back is noise from the nearby highway.
Scout
Such had a great weekend here. Amazing views at the top of a hill. Not all the cars in our group made it up, so for some of us it was a walk, but doable. Great sites for tents, as well as hammocks. It was clean, everyone was very respectful around us.
GuideThis campsite is free! The drive is so gorgeous right below snow covered mountains. Deer frequent the campground. Has everything you need from a picnic table and fire pit to tent space or you can car camp as you have your own parking spot. There are a few double parking spots as well. Pit toilets. Nice and small/quiet.
GuideI camp here with Boy Scouts since the place is often reserved for youth organizations. In the winter it can be fun but to climb some hills. Each campground has cabins which hold about 11 people and tent spaces out side. The cabin do have semi-decent heating, but not AC. The bathrooms are really big and well developed (and super warm for the winter). There is also a big “roof building” with picknick tables to eat food.
