While this camp is fully booked during the summer months the off-season is much calmer and free. Once the camp hosts leave the water is turned off, trash service stops, and no fees are charged. There are still daily patrols by both the Bureau of... Read more

If you're looking for a convenient spot for a night or two and want to be right along the Big Hole River this would be a decent choice. There isn't much here - a few ancient tables and rock fire rings. Some are hard to get to due to the... Read more
