The campground is easy to get to with good signs. Traffic from Missoula at 3pm on a Monday was horrible (bumper to bumper).
I got a “river” site, but the water is still, like a pond. The mosquitoes were immediately attacking when I got out of the car. I don’t recommend a site by the river, instead, follow the road to a more wooded site (less mosquitoes).
At 10pm the campground gate closes, then there are nature sounds only, which is awesome. The sites are spread out nicely, too. At sunset, I heard a flock of geese settle along with many kinds of birds. After dark I heard coyotes in the distance.
There are dumpsters around to dump all your garbage. There’s a water pump at the entrance. Pit toilets are spread around, but I didn’t check them out.
For tent campers, it’s level and enough space for a giant tent.
Three bars on Verizon.
Would I stay again? Maybe—it was overpriced at $18. The still river wasn’t a good feature. Plus there’s garbage all over site 5, which I cleaned up when I left.

Stopped at Larry Creek (part of Bitterroot Nat Forrest), and both campsites there were full. Drove down the road a bit and found this. Very secluded, quiet, 17 sites, some drive/pull-thru, some just spaces to pull in or back in.
Picnic tables, fire rings with grills level & even spots. No hookups.

I’ve stayed at a lot of campgrounds, but never at one with a curfew. I secured a site and left a few things, then went into town (Missoula) to visit with some friends and came back to the campground about 12:30am, and the gate was shut and locked with a small sign attached reading that it closes at 10pm.

I’ve stayed at a lot of campgrounds, but never at one with a curfew. I secured a site and left a few things, then went into town (Missoula) to visit with some friends and came back to the campground about 12:30am, and the gate was shut and locked with a small sign attached reading that it closes at 10pm. I walked in, grabbed my things and went to Wal-Mart. If the fact that they lock the entrance gate at 10pm was posted somewhere, I completely missed it, although, I wasn’t looking for anything like that since I’ve never encountered such a situation.
Other than that, it seemed clean, quiet and maintained.

It is a fishing access area with a lot of day use
It is very easy access and good signage off of Hwy 93.
