About Gallatin River Stock

Access for Stock Parties Only

Nestled in the heart of Montana's stunning landscape, Gallatin River Stock offers a genuine escape into the natural beauty of the American West. This public campground provides an authentic camping experience for those seeking a more rustic, back-to-basics adventure away from the crowds and commercial trappings often found at larger RV facilities.

The campground's intimate setting with just twelve sites creates a peaceful, uncrowded atmosphere that appeals to travelers who value solitude and connection with nature. Whether you're a seasoned RV enthusiast or someone looking to experience Montana's natural wonders, this location serves as an excellent base for exploring one of the region's most picturesque areas. The Gallatin River, which gives the campground its name, is a defining feature of the landscape and offers opportunities for outdoor recreation including fishing, scenic walks, and wildlife observation.

Montana's Gallatin Valley is renowned for its dramatic mountain vistas, pristine waterways, and abundance of outdoor activities. The area surrounding the campground provides access to some of the region's best hiking trails, and the river itself attracts visitors interested in fly fishing and water-based pursuits. The valley's natural beauty shifts with the seasons, offering wildflower displays in summer, golden aspens in fall, and snow-covered peaks throughout the year.

This public campground appeals to a wide range of travelers. Outdoor enthusiasts planning fishing trips or hiking adventures will appreciate the convenient location near quality recreational areas. Families looking for a quieter camping experience, nature photographers seeking dramatic landscapes, and anyone wanting to disconnect from urban life will find Gallatin River Stock's simple, genuine approach to camping refreshing. The smaller site count means you're more likely to experience a genuine sense of remoteness compared to larger commercial parks.

The area's accessibility makes it a practical choice for RV travelers exploring Montana's central region, whether you're passing through or settling in for an extended stay. With its highly positive reviews reflecting visitor satisfaction, this campground consistently delivers what many travelers are seeking: an authentic Montana camping experience in a beautiful natural setting.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The giant trees and grassy area was so nice. It was hot when we stayed and the trees allowed us to stay cool and enjoy the outdoors. The river is also just up the road a bit, which is great! I do wish they had a dumpster for guests to use. I understand we’re basically staying in a yard, but I felt guilty adding my garbage bags to the residential trash can on the pr... We really enjoyed our stay here. The giant trees and grassy area was so nice. It was hot when we stayed and the trees allowed us to stay cool and enjoy the outdoors. The river is also just up the road a bit, which is great! I do wish they had a dumpster for guests to use. I understand we’re basically staying in a yard, but I felt guilty adding my garbage bags to the residential trash can on the property. It was nice and quiet, and Cookie, the dog on the property, was both adorable and respectful. She kept her distance while we walked our dog, but would come say hi to our kids, much to their delight. We even saw a bald eagle steal a fish from an osprey and eat it right on the property. It was pretty epic.

I prefer out of the way and less traveled places, and this most definitely fits the bill. If you’re tired of the same old thing and want to actually enjoy some peace and quiet, this is a great place. Beautiful views and easy access from I-90, with whatever you need a stone’s throw away in Manhattan.

One of my favorite campsites in the valley! We have stayed here twice. We are moving east coast and have some things to wrap up before leaving and have found this place to be so reasonable and FULL hookups! Highly recommend!

We are here now and have been for 6 days. It is lovely! It is very easy to find from the interstate and easy to drive to on paved roads. It's quick to get to Belgrade or Bozeman for what you need or want to see. The 4 sites are truly nice and the big trees provide shade. Everything is well kept and clean. The Gallatin river is a short walk (or drive because there's parking) to wade in and enjoy. T... We are here now and have been for 6 days. It is lovely!
