Old West RV Park

13 RV Sites

Old West RV Park in Reed Point, Montana, offers 13 full-hookup RV sites off Interstate 90 at mile marker 392, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Back-in and pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric with picnic tables, on the Yellowstone River between Billings and Livingston. Thirteen sites carry full hookups on 20, 30, and 50-amp in both back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 75 feet, with picnic tables. The big-rig-friendly layout means long coaches can get in and out without a difficult approach after a day on the interstate. Laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side, and WiFi reaches the sites. Pets are welcome. The park is a stopover rather than a resort, and it is honest about that. What it offers is a clean full-hookup site with straightforward highway access in a genuinely rural Montana setting — a small agricultural community on the Yellowstone River rather than a strip of interstate frontage. On-site facilities stay deliberately simple: laundry, restrooms, hot showers, and site WiFi are what an overnight guest actually uses, and the pull-through sites mean you can stop for a night without unhitching. Hiking, biking, and birding run from the area. Reed Point sits in Stillwater County, 60 miles west of Billings and 50 miles east of Livingston, which makes it a natural midpoint on Montana's most traveled interstate corridor. The Yellowstone River carries excellent fishing, and the Absaroka Range forms the southern skyline. Yellowstone National Park is within reach via Livingston and Paradise Valley. The park serves the Montana travel season, with summer bringing the heaviest I-90 traffic and Yellowstone-bound visitors. With 13 sites, arriving late in the day during July and August is a gamble — reserve ahead.

Ekstroms Stage Station

26 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 4 Tent Sites

Where Rock Creek gathers itself before meeting the Clark Fork River at a confluence that every Montana fly fisherman knows by heart, Ekstrom's Stage Station has occupied its spot in Clinton, Montana, for long enough to feel genuinely woven into the landscape. Located just 20 minutes east of Missoula along I-90, the campground sits adjacent to Rock Creek—a stream carrying a Blue Ribbon trout designation from Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks that brings dedicated anglers from across the country to work its riffles and pools. Two famous bighorn sheep herds are resident to the Rock Creek canyon, visible from the streamside corridor and adding a wildlife dimension that distinguishes the station from standard highway campgrounds. Accommodation options at Ekstrom's range well beyond the typical RV park offering: full hookup sites with 50/30/20-amp electrical service, tent and van camping spots, two rustic cabins, two tiny houses, and a historic hundred-year-old schoolhouse serve the range of travelers who find their way to this wooded tributary. Hot showers, free Wi-Fi, laundry facilities, and a dump station cover the practical infrastructure, while basketball and volleyball courts alongside a playground serve families with active children. The grounds occupy a large grassy field surrounded by tall pines, with sites level, quiet, and well-spaced for the kind of restorative stay that good fly fishing demands the night before. Rock Creek's Blue Ribbon designation reflects an exceptional trout fishery—clear, cold water over a cobble-and-gravel bottom supporting strong brown and rainbow trout populations that rise readily to dry flies on summer evenings. Fishing access begins effectively at the campground and extends for miles upstream into some of Montana's most productive wild trout water, with the Clark Fork confluence adding additional variety for those who want to swing streamers through bigger water. The on-site restaurant rounds out the experience—a dining option that campers consistently praise as a genuine highlight of staying at the station. Missoula, just 20 minutes west on I-90, provides full urban amenities in one of Montana's most culturally vibrant smaller cities—the University of Montana campus, an outdoor gear district on Higgins Avenue, a legendary farmers market, and a riverfront park system that makes the Clark Fork central to daily life downtown. The Rattlesnake Wilderness and National Recreation Area begins at the north end of Missoula and offers hiking and mountain biking through a surprisingly wild landscape minutes from the university. The Blackfoot River corridor, celebrated by Norman Maclean's novella A River Runs Through It, winds northeast from Clinton and provides additional floating and fishing opportunities that attract literary pilgrims and anglers from across the English-speaking world. The primary fishing season on Rock Creek runs from mid-spring through October, with classic summer dry-fly conditions peaking in late June and July when caddis and PMD hatches bring trout consistently to the surface during evening hours. Fall brings lower angling pressure, spectacular larch and cottonwood color in the creek corridor, and brown trout entering pre-spawn feeding mode that produces some of the year's largest fish. The campground operates through the warm season—contact the station directly to confirm current availability and any reservation requirements, particularly during peak summer fishing weeks when demand for Rock Creek access reliably outstrips available sites.

Starry Night Lodging & RV - Ennis

65 RV Sites, 1 Cabin, 3 Tent Sites

Starry Night Lodging and RV in Ennis, Montana, offers 65 RV sites, a cabin, and three tent sites just 300 feet from Highway 287, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and extra-large pull-through sites taking rigs up to 90 feet. Site categories include back-ins, back-ins with a view, motorhome-only pull-ins, and pull-throughs, on a big-rig-friendly property in the Madison Valley. Sixty-five sites span back-in, back-in with view, pull-in for motorhomes only, pull-through, and 20-amp water-and-electric pull-through categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 90 feet, with picnic tables. The extra-large pull-throughs handle the biggest rigs on the road. A cabin and three tent sites round out the accommodations. A general store, laundry, dump station, RV storage, clubhouse, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout. The season runs April 1 through October 31. On-site amenities are straightforward — a clubhouse, walking trails, and biking from the property. The setting does the rest: the Madison Valley's open sightlines put the surrounding ranges in view from the sites, and the dark sky is the property's namesake. At 6,800 feet with no light pollution for dozens of miles and over 300 days of sunshine a year, the night sky here has genuine depth. Pets are welcome. Ennis sits in Madison County between the Madison and Gravelly Ranges, on one of the most storied fly fishing rivers in the American West. Yellowstone's west entrance is about 90 minutes southeast, and the preserved gold rush towns of Virginia City and Nevada City are 14 miles west. Fishing season and midsummer drive peak demand — reserve early for July and August.

Yellowstone Hot Springs Resort

39 RV Sites, 4 Cabins, 18 Tent Sites, 5 Hotel Rooms

Yellowstone Hot Springs Resort in Gardiner, Montana, offers 39 RV sites, nine cabin and hotel-room units, and 18 tent sites eight miles north of Yellowstone's North Entrance, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet behind a gated entrance.

A laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with a gated entrance controlling access. The hot springs define the property.

An outdoor pool, fitness center, clubhouse, and pavilion round out the amenities, with hiking, biking, birding, and picnicking from the area and skiing and a golf course nearby. Pets are welcome. Gardiner sits at the south end of Paradise Valley where the Yellowstone River emerges from the mountains with the Absaroka Range rising on both flanks — one of the most strategically positioned properties in the greater Yellowstone ecosystem, eight miles from the park's only year-round entrance. Summer is decisively the season, with the springs drawing guests year-round. Reserve well ahead for June through September.

Moose Creek RV Resort

42 RV Sites, 6 Cabins, 4 Tent Sites, 4 Glamping Sites, 1 Cottage, 1 House, 8 Suites

Two and a half miles from the West Entrance of Glacier National Park in West Glacier, Montana—in Flathead County where the Going-to-the-Sun Road's 50-mile cross-park traverse, the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex's 1.5-million-acre roadless interior, and the Middle Fork of the Flathead River's Wild and Scenic corridor create the most concentrated wilderness landscape accessible from a single campground address in the northern Rockies—Moose Creek RV Resort provides full hookup RV sites, glamping pods, nine-room bed and breakfast accommodations with a morning breakfast buffet, cabin and cottage rentals, a farmhouse stay option, a Sweets and Espresso Cafe, a fitness center with sauna, electric vehicle charging, a dog park, laundry, sports courts, mini golf, a zip line, and nightly campfire gatherings in the fully amenitied resort property that the 2.5-mile Glacier National Park gate proximity makes the most completely equipped private lodging and campground base in the West Glacier corridor. The Going-to-the-Sun Road access within three miles, the nine-room B&B with breakfast for the non-RV guest, and the glamping pod options at a property with full hookup RVs as well define Moose Creek as a multi-accommodation-format Glacier gateway rather than a single-use campground. Full hookup RV sites with electric, water, and sewer connections and views of the surrounding mountain terrain serve the RV camping market in the forested West Glacier environment. Four unique glamping pods provide the furnished, climate-comfortable outdoor accommodation for guests who want the Glacier gateway experience in a structure with beds and weather protection without the RV commitment. Nine bed and breakfast rooms with a breakfast buffet served daily from 7 to 8:30 a.m. provide the indoor accommodation that makes Moose Creek accessible to every travel format. Cabin and cottage rentals with rustic charm and modern comforts, and a farmhouse stay provide additional enclosed accommodation options. The Sweets and Espresso Cafe—serving pastries, ice cream, and espresso drinks daily—provides the morning coffee infrastructure that Glacier visitor logistics require before the Going-to-the-Sun Road's morning crowds develop. A fitness center with sauna, an EV charging station, a well-stocked gift shop, dog park, coin laundry, basketball court, ping-pong, badminton, volleyball, mini golf, and a zip line complete the on-property resort amenity profile. A nightly campfire gathering provides the social infrastructure that the West Glacier visitor community particularly values after a day on the park's trails. Glacier National Park's Going-to-the-Sun Road—the 50-mile engineering achievement that crosses the Continental Divide at Logan Pass at 6,646 feet elevation—provides the primary visitor experience from the West Entrance within three miles of the resort. The road's seasonal opening from mid-June through mid-October makes summer and fall the park's primary visitor season, with wildflower displays on Logan Pass peaking in July and larch trees turning gold through October. Check current park entry requirements before planning the Logan Pass visit. The Middle Fork of the Flathead River—forming Glacier National Park's southern boundary and accessible from West Glacier—provides the whitewater rafting, fly fishing for westslope cutthroat trout, and the Wild and Scenic River corridor that the outfitter operations based in West Glacier serve with guided raft trips and fishing float experiences that frame the river's character for first-time visitors. Moose Creek RV Resort is open from May 15 through October 8. The Going-to-the-Sun Road's vehicle reservation windows in June through September, the Logan Pass wildflower peak in July, and the September larch color represent the three demand peaks that fill the resort weeks in advance. Book early for mid-summer, get the espresso before the road, and let the two-and-a-half-mile West Entrance proximity earn the Glacier National Park base camp experience that no other West Glacier property provides with quite this range of accommodation formats.

Montana Basecamp

Montana Basecamp RV Resort in Kalispell, Montana, is a premium campground with large paved full-hookup RV sites and comprehensive resort amenities in Flathead County — the ideal launchpad for the full spectrum of Glacier Country outdoor adventure in the most spectacular mountain and lake landscape in the Rocky Mountain West, where Glacier National Park's 700 miles of trail, the Flathead Lake's 191-square-mile surface, and the Whitefish and Big Mountain ski terrain give the Kalispell basecamp its extraordinary day-trip range within 30 miles in every direction. Kalispell's Flathead County position on US-2 and US-93 in the Flathead Valley gives the resort the specific northwestern Montana gateway character of the region's largest city — the commercial hub of Glacier Country that connects the Going-to-the-Sun Road's park entrance at West Glacier to the Canadian border at Roosville in the most scenically dramatic Montana valley outside of Yellowstone. Large, paved full-hookup RV sites with the modern resort amenity infrastructure give Montana Basecamp the premium Kalispell campground experience that the Flathead Valley's outdoor recreation market and the Glacier National Park visitor market jointly sustain — the paved site surface and the large site dimensions give full-size coaches and fifth-wheels the maneuvering comfort that the more primitive park pads cannot offer, and the resort amenities give guests the comfortable home base for multi-day Glacier, Flathead Lake, and Bob Marshall Wilderness excursions that the Kalispell location enables. Pets are welcome. Glacier National Park, 35 miles east of Kalispell on US-2 at West Glacier in Flathead and Glacier Counties, is one of the most spectacular national parks in North America — a 1,013,572-acre park of glacially sculpted peaks, 762 lakes, and the 50-mile Going-to-the-Sun Road that crosses the Continental Divide at Logan Pass's 6,647-foot summit in the most celebrated mountain driving route in the United States. The park's remaining 26 active glaciers, the grizzly bear and mountain goat populations, and the wildflower-covered subalpine meadows of the Highline Trail give Glacier the specific Northern Rocky Mountain wilderness character that makes it one of the most bioscopically intact temperate ecosystems in the lower 48 states. Flathead Lake, 15 miles south of Kalispell on US-93 in Lake and Flathead Counties, is the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi River — a 191-square-mile glacially carved lake whose Flathead Lake cherry and apple orchards on the Mission Mountains' east shore, the Wildhorse Island's bighorn sheep and osprey nesting, and the lake's exceptional water clarity give Flathead the specific Montana mountain lake character of a freshwater body that sustains the wild Flathead Lake cherry agriculture, the Mission Mountain tribal wilderness, and the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes' reservation on the lake's eastern shore. Montana Basecamp serves guests through Flathead County's Montana camping season from late May through October, with the Glacier National Park summer season from mid-June through Labor Day requiring the park's vehicle reservation system for the Going-to-the-Sun Road and the Going-to-the-Sun Road's paving and plowing schedule determining the actual access dates for the high-altitude pass. The Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex — the combined Bob Marshall, Great Bear, and Scapegoat Wildernesses totaling 1.5 million acres south of Glacier — gives the Kalispell basecamp its most significant backcountry wilderness access for the horse packing and backpacking market. Reserve sites many months ahead for the peak Glacier National Park summer season.
