Guide
A rest stop where you can actually spend the night. No fire rings, but a park like atmosphere. Road noise disappears at night.
ScoutMinor 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.
GuideWe 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.
ScoutEverything is booked, so this is great stop on mt200 trying to get to great falls & on to Glacier. Like a rest area !
GuidePerfect 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!
GuideNot 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!
GuideThis 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.
TravelerCamped 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.

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!
Guide
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.
TravelerI stumbled across Camp Creek Campground summer of '19 when I was having some problems with my slides and needed to stop for the night. The campground has several very large pull through spots, and folks with horses often pass through. Upon entering the campground area, a caretakers spot is early on, while no caretaker was employed last year, there is a sanitary dump station at the site, as well as, potable water. A bit past that is a large area for horse trailer parking, and a corral. As one progresses down the road, a large group gathering area is on left of the road, along with parking. A bit further are large, clean, restroom facilities, and another area for both parking and pulling one's rig through to load up on water. Continuing down the road are numerous camping spots, most are smaller. However, a the end of the loop are two large spots big enough to pull a large fifth wheel or motorhome through. A further two or three large back in sites are there as well. A small stream runs through the back area, and endless hiking / horseback riding trails are in this area as well. Further, there is another hookup one can fill their tanks with potable water (no sites have water hookups on site, except the caretakers). When I was there in late July, the campground was maybe 1/3 full. We ended up staying three nights.
Drawbacks: there are four to note. First, while the sites are well kept, those with very wide RV's (mine is 92") or high (mine is 13') will find branches to be bothersome at best. In my case I made a decision some time ago that I was going to be careful, but my rig was going to get used in the great outdoors, and that meant getting a scratch from time to time. I fully realize when one is paying $60k - $500k and more, that may be somewhat less than desirable. And while there are several good sized spaces, I wouldn't try bringing in anything longer than 36' (mine is 33). Second, the road in is rather long, a good gravel road, but gravel (and dusty) none the less. If one gets caught in the rain this area is well known for it's gumbo roads … they can be very miserable. Third, a local told me that the place was heaven nearly all season … except .. during hunting season. He used some rather colorful language to depict the camping environment during those six weeks or so in late fall. Fourth, if you have a problem you are a long way from help, and there is no cell service. All that said, this is a wonderful campground, great for kids and Old Goats like me.
GuideWe stayed here on a trip out to Glacier NP. If you are just passing through to get from point A-B and don't want to get out into the back country, this campsite really fits the bill.
It's clean, maintained and relatively quiet. As others noted, it's essentially free, donations accepted.
ScoutThis place is great and it runs off of donations, so make sure to drop some cash into their donation box if you can. Clean bathrooms and plenty of spots to park your car and camp, some with picnic tables even. There is trash and plastic/can recycling. Flush toilets and running water. There’s a shower at the civic center in town for $2, or one in Grass Lands for $5 just 30 min down the road.
ScoutThis place is awesome. I wish they had these all over the country. Nice parking, covered picnic tables, Grassy and some shade, nice bathrooms. Free but please donate what you can so they will keep this open for the next time you pass thru.
LegendThe Lewistown Kiwanis provide a rest area and free campground to travels on the west end of town next to the airport. This camping area has no fee(they will take your donation to help with upkeep of the site), but does have restrooms with running water, several frost-frees are in the camping area to provide water, and trash cans are found at the restrooms. The camping area does not have numbered sites, but there are 12 concrete picnic tables, 6 of those are covered. No campfires at this campground. Their is plenty of room for camping even if all the tables are taken. Camping is limited to 10 nights. The airport is small so you will have very little aircraft noise, most noise will be from State Hwy 200/U.S. Hwy 87, but since the speed limit is 45mph noise from cars and trucks will be slight.
RangerI love visiting Montana to do hiking and camping. The outdoors here is amazing!! Mountains everywhere, and wildlife everywhere!! The campground was awesome. Here are some things we liked:
We will definitely be coming back! :)
GuideIn the summer, you’ll want to bring or rent a boat of some kind to explore the river; there are many local outfitters. In the fall I’ve heard about the elk herds here and it’s not far from a wildlife refuge. Pros: outhouses, water (seasonally), beautiful landscape (cliffs, river, meadows), lots of water recreation, interesting (but tragic) local history, stargazing, choice of shady or open campsites, along river. Cons: bugs and mud (both seasonal).
RangerIn late October, hundreds of elk congregate in the Slippery Ann area of the park. Dozens of cars also come to watch the herd. It's a very fun time, and an amazing spectacle. It is very busy at this time of year, so that's a bit of a bummer for camping. In mid-summer, before the elk come, there are a million-zillion mosquitoes and it's not fun. Come for the elk!
