This area is popular during peak season. Reserve 2-4 weeks in advance for weekends and holidays.
Most parks have check-in after 1:00 PM and check-out by 11:00 AM. Call ahead if you'll arrive late.
Montana weather can change quickly. Pack layers and check the forecast for the area.
Don't miss local attractions near the park. Ask the camp host for hidden gems and trails.

A place to call home while hunting for mule deer. Has a few camp sites that are heavily used during hunting season. A maintained toilet is at site. A spring is just downhill & N of site for clean water. Can't say much for the scenery due to all the major fires that have hit this area hard

As advertised, no water. Clean toilet. Surrounding area (right up to but not including campsites) sadly burned in forest fire and a long way from recovering. 2 sites with metal fire pits, 1 without. Cattle got through fence so one must dodge cowpies throughout campground. Interestingly, lots of bird species in and across valley abutting campsites; Holiday Spring at bottom of valley.

Initially wanted to camp at Red Shale but it was still closed for the winter season. Holiday Spring was about 20-30 min off the highway. Felt like we were the only ones out there. Couple small sites. One had 2 picnic tables. Bathroom was not maintained at all but overall pleased

Nice little camp ground. A little muddy this time year. Had a little weasel trying to get into my tent. But nice spot!

It’s a bit out of the way, but nice and secluded.
