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.

Osen's RV Park

5 RV Sites, 1 Cabin

Osen's RV Park in Livingston, Montana earns its reputation through setting alone — positioned along the Yellowstone River in the shadow of the Absaroka-Beartooth mountain range, with Yellowstone National Park fifty miles south via one of the most spectacular valley drives in the American West. For travelers staging multiple Yellowstone day trips or drawn to Montana's world-renowned fly-fishing rivers, this campground in Livingston provides the obvious home base: close enough to the park for unhurried mornings, far enough to find the small-city character and hospitality that Livingston has cultivated across its history as a railroad and outfitting town. Full-service sites include 30- and 50-amp electrical, water, sewer, and cable TV connections for rigs of all sizes, with pull-through options simplifying arrival for larger motorhomes and fifth wheels. Shower facilities, a laundry room, a general store, a dump station, and Wi-Fi round out the practical amenities, while cabin rentals provide a comfortable alternative for guests traveling without their own RV who want to remain in this exceptional location. Pets are welcome throughout the park, and the staff brings a genuine Montanan hospitality that sets a warm tone from the moment of arrival — the kind of unpretentious welcome that becomes one of the things guests remember most clearly about a Livingston stay. The Montana landscape surrounding Osen's is cinematic in every direction — wide open sky, cottonwood-lined Yellowstone River banks, and the dramatic silhouette of the Absaroka range rising to the south. Sunrises over the mountain peaks, reflected in the river's surface, are among the defining experiences of a stay in Paradise Valley, and the quality of light here through the evening hours attracts photographers who time their visits specifically around golden hour. The river's blue-ribbon trout fishery, accessible directly from the Livingston area, draws fly-fishing devotees who build annual Montana trips around this stretch of the Yellowstone. The drive south to Yellowstone along Highway 89 through Paradise Valley is one of the most beautiful highway corridors in the lower 48 — the road threads between the Absaroka and Gallatin ranges with the Yellowstone River as a constant companion before delivering guests to the park's North Entrance at Gardiner. Old Faithful, the Grand Prismatic Spring, and Lamar Valley's extraordinary wildlife — bison herds, wolves, grizzly bears, and pronghorn — are all accessible as day-trip destinations. Back in Livingston, the historic Livingston Depot Center, the Yellowstone Gateway Museum, and a thoughtful collection of galleries and boutiques reward any afternoon not spent on the river. Chico Hot Springs, a historic resort just south of Livingston in the Paradise Valley, offers natural soaking pools and fine dining that makes the perfect evening counterbalance to a day of hard mountain hiking. Osen's RV Park sees peak demand from June through September, when Yellowstone visitation is at its annual high and the Livingston fly-fishing season reaches its prime. Reserve sites well in advance for any summer stay — campgrounds near Yellowstone consistently fill faster than available inventory can accommodate, and the park's Yellowstone River location makes it a particularly sought-after option. Spring and fall offer excellent fishing, quieter conditions, and the dramatic shoulder-season light that photographers and serious anglers specifically prefer.

Sun Outdoors Yellowstone North

1 Apartment

A quarter mile from the Roosevelt Arch—the stone gateway through which millions of Yellowstone visitors have passed since 1903—Sun Outdoors Yellowstone North in Gardiner, Montana occupies perhaps the most dramatically positioned RV park in the national park system. Just steps from the North Entrance to Yellowstone National Park, the resort anchors travelers in a small Montana mountain town where the Yellowstone River runs cold and clear, the surrounding mountains rise in every direction, and the wildlife that defines Yellowstone begins making appearances long before you pass through the arch itself. Gardiner is the only Yellowstone entrance open to wheeled vehicles year-round, making this an essential stop for any season. Premium full hookup RV sites offer 20, 30, and 50-amp electric service alongside WiFi, cable, and picnic tables at each site, creating a comfortable and well-connected base for Yellowstone exploration. Pet-friendly standard sites with full hookups provide additional options, and cabin rentals are available for travelers who prefer a roof. A camp-wide WiFi network, a general store stocked with supplies and local information, and a main deck area for gathering complete the essential amenities. The resort's proximity to Gardiner's restaurants, art galleries, and shops—all within a short walk—eliminates the need to drive for meals or supplies after a long day in the park. Gardiner sits at 5,314 feet in the Yellowstone River canyon just north of the park boundary, surrounded by the dry, sage-covered slopes of the Absaroka Range that frame one of America's most celebrated mountain landscapes. Elk are visible from camp throughout the year—the Northern Yellowstone herd migrates through Gardiner and the surrounding valleys in massive numbers each fall and spring, and individual animals are present on the slopes and river bottoms in virtually every season. Pronghorn, bighorn sheep, and mule deer are regular sights on the hillsides above town. Yellowstone National Park's Northern Range, accessible directly through Gardiner, contains the highest concentration of predictably visible large mammals in North America—wolves of the Lamar Valley, grizzly bears and black bears on the hillsides, bison herds on the valley floors, and the full complement of Yellowstone's thermal features along the road to Mammoth Hot Springs. The Lamar Valley, often called "America's Serengeti," is the premier wildlife viewing corridor in the continental United States. The Yellowstone River through the Black Canyon and through the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone provides extraordinary scenery and fishing for native Yellowstone cutthroat trout. Yellowstone's North Entrance operates 365 days a year, making Sun Outdoors Yellowstone North uniquely positioned as a winter gateway when all other park entrances close to wheeled vehicles. January and February offer the remarkable experience of wolf watching, bison in the snow-covered valleys, and thermal features surrounded by winter silence. Summer season is at full capacity from June through September—book as early as possible. Spring and fall offer excellent wildlife activity as animals migrate through the corridor. Reserve your site at Sun Outdoors Yellowstone North and wake up within walking distance of one of the world's great natural wonders.

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.
