Nice Place To Spend The Day!

West Shore State Park was a beautiful way to spend an afternoon after kayaking to Wild Horse Horse Island State Park nearby. The water was clear and the dogs throughly enjoyed splashing around. Us humans enjoyed swimming in water where we could actually see if anything was swimming around us ( there never was but I like that peace of mind). We only got to use the day use area since camping was full but they have a nice ramp for you to put your boat in the water. They have picnic tables nicely spaced and bathrooms nearby including a water spigot which was helpful for our thirsty pups! There’s plenty of trees to set up hammocks and take a nap. There is an entrance fee but it was very reasonable. We visited in July of 2020 so they had a little “shop” set up near the water where you could rent kayaks, etc. I’d love to come back and camp here when I come back to visit Montana. Verizon got some cell reception (2 bars) so I didn’t have to worry about missing any important messages while having fun. Definitely recommend this spot for a nice picnic and some fun in the fun. Even if you don’t camp!
