Description
🌲 Crow Creek Homestead | Private Montana Camping with Pond, Creek & Mission Mountain Views
Escape to your own private camping area on our peaceful 20-acre working homestead at the base of Montana's beautiful Mission Mountains. Guests enjoy exclusive access to 10 acres of private camping space with multiple primitive sites available for tents, vans, and RVs up to 30 feet. Choose a site nestled among shaded trees, in the open pasture, beside the creek, or near our private pond.
Need more space? RV accommodations for vehicles longer than 30 feet may be possible on a case-by-case basis with advance notice and approval. We can also accommodate larger groups of 20+ guests with advance planning and host approval to ensure we can provide a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for everyone.
A flowing creek winds through the property, and our private 1-acre pond is perfect for swimming, floating, relaxing, and enjoying Montana’s peaceful outdoors. Wildlife commonly seen on the property includes deer, wild turkeys, and many species of birds, with occasional foxes, coyotes, and bears passing through.
Although we are only 4 miles from Ronan, Crow Creek Homestead feels quiet, remote, and surrounded by nature.
🔒 Private, Peaceful & Secure
Your campsite is accessed through a separate private entrance at the end of the road, providing a quiet and secluded camping experience with limited traffic and exceptional privacy. The camping area is completely separate from the main residence, while still offering the comfort and security of having the main house within easy walking distance should you need anything during your stay.
Enjoy the feeling of being away from it all while knowing your hosts are nearby and available to help make your visit comfortable and memorable.

Directions
From the main road, travel ¾ mile down Michel Road. Just before the bridge, turn left — you’ll see a driveway sign with our address on it. Follow the driveway along the canal for about ¼ mile. Please note: the driveway is single-lane with one pull-off, so drive slowly and be attentive. Take the first downhill, sweeping left turn to leave the canal driveway and continue on through our main gate to enter the property. Then pass through the double brown gates, leaving them as you found them. Drive along the edge of our property past the main house. The driveway will make a sharp 90° turn — use caution if towing, as the lane you’re turning onto is exactly 16 feet wide. Continue through the last gate, turning left just before the two trees and the porta potty. Follow the old road toward your designated campsite. You have arrived.
