Nice campground with fishing access on the Big Hole River. Pit toilets, picnic tables, gravel sites. There is no cell service or WiFi here. Gas in Wisdom or Melrose, come prepared. No groceries or c-store near either.

If you’re looking for a camp spot to enjoy the river and relax this is your place. We have camped here multiple times and it’s always a favorite. Make note it gets busy on opening day of hunting season.
