    Great overnight stop

    Stopped in for the night. The Ole Mercantile had a cute shop and Conoco gas. People were very friendly and 6 full hookup sites out back. Mostly flat overgrown gravel pad did the job. Wrangler Bar and Cafe in the same parking lot had great food and drinks. Sunny and buggy but as expected in the grasslands.

    Quaint, quiet

    This campground is pretty nice and is tucked back up a road. It was for the most part fairly quiet.

    There is a store in Landusky we didn't visit, but we did check out the DY store as well as the store in Zortman. Keep in mind this area is pretty rural, so there's not much available when it comes to stores and whatnot.

    The folks in both stores were quite accommodating and friendly. 

    I would definitely go back.

    Quick stop

    A rest stop where you can actually spend the night. No fire rings, but a park like atmosphere. Road noise disappears at night.

    Great stay, wonderful welcoming hosts

    We just returned from a very pleasant two night stay. The camp is clean and well maintained. The community bathrooms/showers are cleaned daily. One recommendation would be to bring your own drinking water as the camp water has a high and noticeable mineral content. That said, the sun rises and sun sets were worth the trip and any hardship from having to use my own water for drinking and cooking.

    Only downside is the camp is literally in a prairie dog town so my bird dogs were constantly on high alert living among the natives. A small price to pay for a well run camp with hosts that clearly care.

    Great spot for water and relaxation

    Minor noise from the road. Many spots were available. Got some fresh spring water from one of the spigots. Very clean and clear skies. Next to an airport, but absolutely no traffic.

    Ackley Lake State Park Campground

    Absolutely beautiful

    So beautiful. Found it randomly passing through, just looking for a place to stay for the night. So much wildlife on our drive to it, in the fieds that surround the lake. They only have 26 spots, first come first serve. So we were skeptical at first thinking we might not find a spot. But there was plenty of room. And all of the campsites are right on the water. I would stay there again for sure. No hook ups. only $24 a night for out of state residents. Well worth it to me for the beauty.

    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.

    Nice little campground

    We were here on June 17, 2022. It was somewhat crowded but we managed to snag a spot for our 38’ fifth wheel. They have a ten day limit on your stay which is free. No electric but they do have some water spigots spaced throughout. Our AT&T has 2-3 bars of data and running 13 mbps. No designated sites just find a place to park.

    Great harbor in a storm!

    Perfect place to duck into and park during high winds/rain. Extremely clean restroom. Be aware, Waze directed me to a totally different place but Google Maps pointed me to the exact location. You just find a place on the grass or in an actual site and be sure to honor them with a donation!

    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

    Decent

    Not too bad for a quick overnight stay. Right next to the highway so lots of traffic. The grass is nice but they are having a problem with prairie dogs. Restrooms were clean!

    Muchwater Campground

    Holy moly

    Muchwater is a dispersed camping spot just north of St Regis, MT. It is located in the LoLo National Forest. It is nestled along side the Clark Fork River. This area is amazing! The campsites are huge with plenty of room for an rv or 5'er. We had a spot right next to the river which allowed for easy access. Plenty of trails to explore, but beware, this is HEAVY bear country. There are plenty of animal trails too. Please do not leave food out, children or pets unattended. The sunset off the river is magnificent. This area is FCFS, zero cell service, and has no facilities. The only downside is the train that goes by in the night. It will wake you as it feels like an earthquake, but it is definitely worth staying here.

    The only option!

    This is the only RV park in the area. Sites are big. Park struggles with emptying garbage and dog waste containers in a timely manner. Two employees…one was friendly and accommodating, the manager was absolutely horrible - she treated us and several other campers very poorly.

    Good overnight stop

    This is a clean well kept basic campground right off the highway. The Dyrt description is a little confusing, no dump station, water only. Nevertheless we were happy to find it as a quick night stop. Road noise minimal, a few airplanes took off from the airport while we were there, but were not too intrusive. Bathrooms clean and well functioning, plenty of spaces without being crowded. Donations only.

    Decent place for a night

    Not a bad place to stay for a night. It’s right next to the highway so it’s easy to access but there’s also a decent amount of car noise. We were awoken by the sound of trucks around 6:30am. Bathrooms/shower in the nearby convenience store are fairly clean but close at 10 pm.

    Nice little lake that was pretty busy

    I stayed here for a weekend in a tent. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon and most "camp sites" were taken (its mostly just pull off the road and park style camping from what I could see; I don't think there are very many official camp spots), but we were able to find a spot. There is some shade in certain spots. The shoreline was rocky at our site, so it was easy to get in and out of the water. We took ATVs and drove them to Utica and Sapphire Village to explore some of the trail up there. Overall, a nice spot for such a small lake.

    Great campground that is still in its early stages

    Found this place on accident with Google. It's a way off from city life. At one point we were in the middle of nowhere and still had an hour to go. The views on the way are amazing though. The site has RV, tent and cabin rentals available and are in great shape. Bath houses are new with flushing toilets, full showers and a large basin sink for washing cooking supplies. They have a 2 mile loop that allows you to see some amazing views. Worth doing.... Would definitely take the detour to stay here again.

    Great stopover place

    Camped for one night between White Sulphur Springs and Glasgow MT. Clean park with plenty of room to space out. Just pull in and pick your spot. Only charge is they accept donations. We'll maintained and used by many as it is also a little rest area off the highway. Grocery store accross the road very handy. It is all dry camping with water and restrooms available. Small municipal airport is next door. Fun watching the activity. Not noisy at all.

    Quiet and beautiful spot

    I camped two nights . The sites are spacious and most are shady. We took a nice hike along the river. There is an rv dump for $10. There was no water available during my stay. Only downside was a swarm of horseflies that were not deterred by bug spray or a bug light!

    Great campground for OHV riding

    We stayed here a few days in May. We had a great time. There were only 2 other people camping there the whole weekend. There’s tons of trails to ride side by sides. The campground is clean and the sites have plenty of space for our 28ft toy hauler. We would definitely stay here again.

    Best place in town

    Great little-known Gas & Grocery store with easy access to the Little Rockies mountains of North Central Montana.  

    The mountain area provides miles of multi-use trails for hiking, biking, atv & horse back.  

    Friendly little town with rich history of gold, outlaws, fables and lore.

    Park close to historic township

    Park has good sites. Only a few trees though. Facilities are good. Management is good. Town is very historic. A good staging location to visit the wilderness areas where Elk herds roam in the evening. Great fun!
