Chester City Park

Very easy to get to and a lovely park! We stopped here on our way through. This site will acomadate larger rigs. The whole park was extremely clean including the restrooms. Not only is there water available but a park and garden area as well. There is a donation box in the side pavillon. There is the train that runs through for us it was 10pm and 6am that can be very clearly heard so that could be a factor for some.

Clean safe town park easily accessible from route 2. Stayed one night on our way from Glacier to ND. Bathrooms are clean with running water. Pavilion was great to eat in as it was raining and we are tenters. Slept in the car because of the rain but there’s a nice grassy area to put several tents and enough area for probably 3-4 RVs. Everyone we met walking through were very friendly. Yes there is a train nearby that is loud but we heard it mostly before 9:30 and then again at 3:30am (and that may have been only because we were up to go to the bathroom). Would not be a deal breaker for us to stay again. Very generous of the town to offer this space for campers moving through. There’s also a rest area with bathrooms on the west bound side we noticed when heading out of town East.

Stayed here one night as I left Glacier. It was a great spot to settle down and plan the rest of my days in Montana. This is a terrific little city park. It’s close to a well stocked grocery store and fuel. The pavilions would be great in case of bad weather. The park was super clean and the restrooms were perfect. Has a great playground for the kids and a super nice garden to relax in. The residents must be very proud of their city park. Like some of the other reviews say, the train does come through but that’s a minor nuisance for me.

While it is pretty and an easy location to get in and out of I would not stay here again. The train is obnoxiously loud every few hours even at night. It blows it's whistle at every RR crossing so you can hear it for a few miles and most.of that is right by the park. Unless your rig is incredibly well insulated and sound proof I would not suggest this place for light sleepers. My husband sleeps like the dead most nights but even he was kept awake by the train.

This is a great place to stop if you're passing through. We're staying two nights but the limit is three. There is a fairly level gravel parking area with a pavilion, bathrooms and water that is accessible to top up your rig if needed. The park and garden is very well kept with a great playset for kids. There is a train track nearby that is quite loud.

Really easy to find and super conveniently located not far from Rt 2. We just pulled in and parked it in the gravel lot by the pavilion. No hookups or spaces, really. There is a donation box so we gave $5. There are restrooms and a nice sized park where I was able to walk the dogs. A great find for a nice stop in our journey across Montana.

One note, along route 2 is an active train line. I don't think you'd be able to find a place to stay along that road without train noise, but if that bothers you I would try going a few miles more south than this place. As for me, with my ear plugs in, I was not bothered by the over night trains.

So, first the bad... the train tracks are less than 1/2 mile from the park and trains travel through the area A LOT and must blow their horns at each crossing (for safety). This is ok during the day, but at night, holy goodness, it gets loud and startling! I think they stop rolling through around 11 PM, then pick back up around 4 AM; at least that's what my sleep semi-deprived brain remembers. Now the good... Beautiful park, very well maintained, bathrooms are clean, water spigot available, trash receptacle available, gorgeous garden in corner of park area maintained by local garden club, play equipment is pretty new and the kids loved it. There is a donation box, but nothing is required. The lot is gravel and river rock, easy to enter and exit. We parked right next to the park, away from the pavilion, which ended up being a great decision. A local home school group came out for a pot luck and meet up, and we would have blocked the entire thing. Nobody had an issue with our rig. The neighbors didn't seem to mind. We had both Verizon and AT&T, but can't remember the exact signal strength, just that it was enough for me to work remotely.

City Park with garden donated by city garden club. Very pretty! Children’s play area swings, jungle gym all on grass!

The parking lot is mostly gravel covered. There are 2 large pavilions with picnic tables. Bathrooms and large trash bin located near designated tent area.

Located right off Rte2. Arrived in a downpour, backed in to an area by the pavilion and plan to stay the night. Quiet neighborhood, trains in the background, no one seemed bothered an RV was in the lot. No charge; 3 day camping limit. Put a $5- donation in box provided.
