RV Camping near Babb, Montana

Leaning Tree Cafe and Campground

4 RV Sites, 8 Tent Sites

Leaning Tree Cafe and Campground in Babb, MT, offers 4 RV sites and 8 tent sites, with 20-amp service and room for rigs up to 60 feet. Sites are back-ins carrying water and electric with site-delivered WiFi and a fire pit. Two things to plan around: there's no sewer at the site, and the service is 20-amp, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and careful load management — run the air conditioner or the microwave, not both. The 60-foot maximum, though, means the sites themselves take a long rig. A cafe, general store, clubhouse, and bathhouse with showers are on the property, and pets are welcome. There's no recreation program, because the location makes one unnecessary. Babb sits on the northeastern boundary of Glacier National Park — a short drive from the Many Glacier entrance, the St. Mary Valley, and the eastern end of the Going-to-the-Sun Road. Few campgrounds anywhere are positioned this well. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Four RV sites at Glacier's east side means summer books out months in advance.

Moose Creek RV Resort

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

Moose Creek RV Resort in West Glacier, MT, offers 42 full-hookup RV sites, 16 cabin, cottage, house, and suite rentals, 4 tent sites, and 4 glamping sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 70 feet. Site categories run from 20-amp spots sized for vans, truck campers, and pop-ups through economy and deluxe water/electric back-ins and pull-thrus up to ADA premium full-hookup pull-thrus. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with cable TV, site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. The property is rated big rig friendly and includes EV charging — still rare in this corner of Montana. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, propane fills and exchange handle resupply. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. The resort runs like a small village: a zip line, water park, mini-golf, disc golf, hot tub and sauna, fitness center, bar and dining, bike rentals, a community fire pit, sport courts, and a boutique shop, plus horseback riding, live music, and trails along the river. The resort sits two and a half miles from Glacier National Park's West Entrance, off Highway 2. Operating dates run roughly May through early October; check the booking page for the current season and rates. Glacier-season sites book months ahead.

Columbia Falls RV Park

52 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 1 Lodge

Columbia Falls RV Park in Montana offers 52 full-hookup RV sites and four cabin and lodge units on the road to Glacier National Park, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet, open all year. Premium pull-through, standard pull-through, and back-in categories join free hot showers, laundry, and a dog park. Fifty-two sites run in back-in, pull-through, and premium pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. Three tiers keep booking simple, and free cable and WiFi come with the site. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, and free hot showers handle the practical side. A dog park, horseshoes, and picnicking fill the grounds. The amenity set is deliberately practical rather than resort-scale, which is exactly right for a property whose guests are here to see Glacier and want a clean, reliable, well-located base rather than a destination in itself. Pets are welcome. The position is the whole proposition, and it is a strong one. Columbia Falls is the last full-service town on the road to Glacier's West Glacier entrance, and this is the only RV park within the city limits — groceries, fuel, restaurants, and outfitters are all walkable, with the park entrance a short drive up Highway 2. Whitefish, Flathead Lake, and the Flathead River are all close. Glacier's season is short and the demand is intense. July and August fill months ahead, and the Going-to-the-Sun Road opening drives a sharp June peak. Reserve as early as you can.

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.

Outback Montana RV Park and Campground

Outback Montana RV Park and Campground in Bigfork, Montana, provides a full-service camping base in one of the most spectacularly positioned communities in the American West, where the eastern shore of Flathead Lake—the largest natural freshwater lake in the western United States—meets the Swan Mountain Range's forested ridgelines just 50 miles south of Glacier National Park's western entrance in a landscape of crystalline water, grizzly bear wilderness, and the small-resort-town character that makes Bigfork a beloved destination for Montana travelers seeking both outdoor recreation excellence and the local arts and cultural scene that distinguishes Bigfork from the purely utilitarian gateway communities surrounding Glacier. The park's facility serves the outdoor recreation visitor who needs reliable infrastructure alongside the natural surroundings that define Bigfork's appeal: full hookup RV sites, cabin rentals, dining, a playground, boutique shop, firewood, Wi-Fi, dump station, and the pet-friendly policy that Montana outdoor recreation visitors require for their hiking dogs provide the practical and experiential amenities for extended stays in Flathead Lake's eastern shore community. The planned activities programming connects guests with the area's seasonal recreation opportunities, and the national park proximity ensures that the campground serves as a de facto Glacier basecamp for visitors who find Bigfork's small-town character and Flathead Lake's recreational resources a compelling alternative to the crowded West Glacier gateway. Bigfork's position on Flathead Lake provides immediate access to the lake's cherry orchards—a microclimate created by the lake's thermal mass produces cherry-growing conditions unique in Montana, and the summer cherry harvest at the working orchards lining the east shore creates one of the most distinctive agricultural experiences available in a Montana lake community. The Swan River's outlet from Flathead Lake through Bigfork provides a short but productive stretch of whitewater and the Bigfork Summer Playhouse's professional theater season creates a performing arts experience of genuine quality that has operated continuously since 1960 in one of the American West's most established rural theater traditions. Glacier National Park's western entrances at West Glacier and Apgar provide access to the Going-to-the-Sun Road—the 50-mile scenic highway that traverses the Continental Divide through the park's most dramatic glacier-carved scenery in a drive consistently rated among the most spectacular in the world. The park's 700 miles of hiking trails access the glacial lakes, wildflower meadows, and the grizzly bear and mountain goat habitat of the Crown of the Continent ecosystem in a wilderness experience of the highest quality. Bob Marshall Wilderness, the largest undeveloped wilderness in the continental United States outside Alaska, lies immediately south of the park in a contiguous protected landscape of over one million acres. Outback Montana RV Park operates seasonally from spring through fall in the Flathead Valley's mountain climate, with the peak summer season from July through August driving maximum demand for both Flathead Lake recreation and Glacier National Park visitation when the Going-to-the-Sun Road is fully open and the park's trail network is snow-free. The Logan Pass wildflower meadows peak in late July and early August, creating the most intensely competitive reservation period for Glacier-area accommodations, and guests targeting this window should book several months in advance as Bigfork's limited campground inventory fills quickly. Fall's October foliage and the quieting of summer crowds provides a compelling alternative season for guests who accept some trail closures in exchange for dramatically reduced competition.

Choteau Mountain View RV Campground

18 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 6 Tent Sites

Choteau Mountain View RV Campground in Choteau, Montana, offers 18 RV sites, three cabins, and six tent sites along the Rocky Mountain Front, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 85 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Full-hookup and water-and-electric categories deliver panoramic views of the range, including Ear Mountain's distinctive silhouette. Eighteen back-in sites run in 50/30-amp full-hookup and water-and-electric-only categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 85 feet. The 85-foot capacity handles a long coach with a tow comfortably. Three cabins and six tent sites round out the accommodations. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and WiFi handle the practical side. A game room, mini-golf, playground, and walking trails fill the grounds, with a lake and golf course nearby. The mountain views are the property's defining feature — this is the interface where Montana's high plains meet the alpine terrain of the Front, and the sightlines are exceptional. Choteau sits in Teton County within 90 miles of Glacier National Park's St. Mary entrance, which makes this a natural overnight on north-south routes through western Montana and a comfortable staging point for the Bob Marshall Wilderness corridor south. Local draws include the Montana Dinosaur Center, the Old Trail Museum, Freezeout Lake, and golf at the Choteau Country Club, with hiking trails and outfitters throughout. Summer is peak, with Glacier traffic driving demand from June through September. Reserve ahead for July and August.

North Haven Campground

20 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 2 Glamping Sites

North Haven Campground in Bonners Ferry, Idaho, offers 20 RV sites, five furnished log cabins, and two glamping sites on the Kootenai River in Boundary County, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 85 feet. Back-in and pull-through categories carry full and partial hookups in the northernmost county of Idaho, 30 miles from the Canadian border. Twenty sites run in water-and-electric back-in, full-hookup pull-through, and water-and-electric pull-through configurations, all carrying 30 and 50-amp, sized to 85 feet, with fire pits and site WiFi. Five fully furnished log cabins and two glamping sites serve guests without a rig, with Conestoga wagons and tipis proposed for future glamping expansion. A general store — the Outpost, which doubles as the office — plus laundry, a bathhouse, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Quiet hours run 10pm to 8am, and an updated campground map shows cabin, RV site, bathhouse, and Outpost locations. On-site amenities are practical rather than extensive: a playground for families and walking trails through the property. This is a rustic and comfortable base rather than a programmed resort, and the setting does the work. Pets are welcome. Bonners Ferry sits on US-95 in the Kootenai River valley, where the Selkirk and Purcell Mountains meet in the most dramatically mountainous corner of the Idaho Panhandle, amid old-growth cedar and hemlock. The Canadian border at Eastport is 30 miles north, putting Nelson, Cranbrook, and Kootenay Lake within reach. The campground serves the northern Idaho season. Summer is peak — reserve ahead, particularly for the cabins.

Lost Moose Meadows Campground & RV Park

36 RV Sites

Lost Moose Meadows Campground & RV Park in Lincoln, Montana, offers 36 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 115 feet, open all year along the Blackfoot River corridor. Meadow view back-ins join standard back-ins and pull-throughs at a family-owned property that opened in July 2023. Thirty-six sites span inside standard back-in, meadow view back-in, and pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 115 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and site WiFi. The 115-foot capacity handles any rig on the road, and the meadow view sites are worth requesting. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and recycling handle the practical side, with year-round operation — worth noting at this elevation. A playground and dog park fill the grounds, with fishing and picnicking from the area and mountains and a river nearby. The campground is new enough that the facilities are genuinely fresh, and the family ownership shows in the personal hospitality and property management that distinguish small Montana operations from the large commercial parks near highway interchanges. Lincoln sits between Helena and Missoula on the Montana Highway 200 corridor, which gives the campground strong two-way gateway utility. Philipsburg, Georgetown Lake, and the area's ghost towns are all within reach, with Glacier National Park, Helena, and Missoula all accessible for day trips. Summer is peak across Montana, with hunting season extending demand into fall. Reserve ahead for July and August.

Ideal Acres RV

Ideal Acres RV in Bonners Ferry, Idaho, offers full-hookup pull-through RV sites with water, sewer, and electric and ADA-accessible sites, in the broad Kootenai River valley beneath the Selkirk Mountains. Fire pits and picnic tables sit at the sites, minutes from downtown at 4924 Idaho Highway 1. Full-hookup pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric with fire pits and picnic tables at every site, and accessible sites are available for guests who need them. Pulling through means no backing after a long day on Highway 1 and no unhitching for an overnight. The amenity set is deliberately minimal — what the park offers is a clean, level full-hookup site with the utilities working properly, in a genuinely beautiful valley, at a price that reflects the absence of resort programming. Guests who want a pool and a game room should look elsewhere; guests who want a well-run site and quiet will find exactly that. Picnicking runs from the grounds. Pets are welcome. The setting is the offering. The Kootenai River valley opens wide beneath the Selkirks, at the edge of one of the Pacific Northwest's most pristine and least-crowded landscapes. This is the far northern Idaho Panhandle, where the mountains close in and the traffic thins out. Bonners Ferry sits just miles from the Canadian border, which makes the park well positioned for travelers pushing north or using the valley as a base for extended exploration. Downtown is minutes away with groceries, restaurants, and the small-town Idaho warmth that rounds out a road trip stop — genuinely useful when the next town of any size is a long way off. The park serves the northern Idaho season. Summer draws the heaviest traffic through the Panhandle, with fall bringing quieter conditions and color in the valley. Reserve ahead for summer weekends.

Ekstroms Stage Station

26 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 4 Tent Sites

Ekstroms Stage Station in Clinton, MT, offers 26 full-hookup RV sites, 3 cabins, and 4 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 45 feet.

Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, on-site dining, and a community fire pit cover the essentials, with cabins for guests without a rig. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. Creek frontage runs the property, with volleyball, basketball, fishing, hiking, biking, and birding. Clinton sits where Rock Creek gathers itself before meeting the Clark Fork — a confluence every Montana fly fisherman knows by name — about 20 minutes east of Missoula. Rates for sites, cabins, and tent spots are on the booking page. Rock Creek's salmonfly hatch in late spring is the busiest stretch of the year here, so reserve well ahead.

Crystal Gold Mine RV Park

27 RV Sites

Crystal Gold Mine RV Park in Kellogg, ID, offers 27 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 32 feet. Sites come in five categories — back-in 30-amp, back-in 30/50-amp, pull-thru 30-amp, pull-thru 30/50-amp, and van life parking — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. Check the 32-foot maximum against your rig before booking; despite the big rig rating, this is a small-rig park. The park runs seven days a week May 1 through October 31, with summer hours 9am to 6pm and fall hours 10am to 4pm, and stays open through winter on reduced hours. A bathhouse with showers, a general store, a boutique shop, and a dump station cover the rest. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. Gold panning is the signature activity — the park is attached to a historic mine — with picnicking on the grounds, a state park and water park nearby, and skiing in winter. Kellogg sits at 51931 Silver Valley Road with easy I-90 access, in the Coeur d'Alene mining district near Silver Mountain Resort and the Route of the Hiawatha rail-trail. Rates by site category are on the booking page. Confirm your rig length and the current season's hours before you go.

Rest in Peace RV Park

Rest in Peace RV Park in Sagle, ID, offers full-hookup RV sites carrying water, sewer, and electric, with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table at each site. Both pull-thru and back-in layouts are available, along with ADA-accessible sites. The park is rated big rig friendly, and laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and a dump station cover the essentials. Contact the park directly for site count, amp service, and maximum rig length, since those specifics aren't published here — worth a call before you commit a long coach. An outdoor pool, sport courts, volleyball, and walking trails fill the grounds, with a lake nearby for boating, paddling, paddle boarding, swimming, and fishing, plus hiking, biking, off-road riding, and stargazing. Pets are welcome, with a dog park, and golf is close. Sagle sits in Bonner County on US-95, ten miles south of Sandpoint, beside Lake Pend Oreille — 148 square miles of water more than a thousand feet deep, ringed by the Selkirk and Cabinet Mountains, with Schweitzer Mountain above. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Call ahead to confirm your rig's fit before reserving.
